Bubblesort Triskaidekaphobia Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Ever notice how group chat bugs out and stops sending your messages at the worst times? Like, just now, I was saying on one group that it would have been nice if a different group posted a notice about something. Then I checked, and found out they did post a notice. So that means I gave the first group bad information. That won't do at all, so I went back and tried to tell them that. Message got dropped. I resent. Message dropped again. I can message other groups, but the group messaging is just very slow. After about 5 minutes, they finally let me message the first group to correct myself. That never happens when I say something nice, or at the end of a nice conversation. It always happens at just the wrong moment, to make things as awkward as possible. I swear, sometimes I think there's a linden somewhere with a switch that turns my group IMs off and on, and he's laughing at me, LOL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same way when it comes to other avatars that appear as a cloud. As soon as I type "you're a cloud" they suddenly rez in, almost as if my typing triggers some hidden rendering update 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orwar Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Peeve: when people claim 'Gutenberg invented the printing press' (or movable type). It's about as accurate as to say that 'James Watts invented the steam engine'. Firstly, of course I 'know' that, everyone 'knows' that. Secondly, no. Also, in both aforementioned cases, their actual innovations are a whole lot cooler than the faulty claims. Couldn't go balls to the walls if it wasn't for Watts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"This pain will end one day." "This baby will be born." "This too, shall pass." "Yee-haaa! I don't care if my car breaks down, I'm going to drive it until it dies!"

I have to agree here. Pile-ons seem to be a dopamine high for some, the desire to 'get' someone. It's sadistic. I would feel too guilty to do a pile-on...would feel abusive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not what my post was referring to but in any case I suppose pile-ons happen when someone makes a statement that runs counter to so many people's experience. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
