That's nothing. On failbook today there are two post series, one grappling with the question of where the other half of the moon goes during a half-moon, and the other struggling to cope with the concept of a spherical Earth.

Ha! Zen, Go ahead and laugh. Any moment you and your Australian friends will be falling off the earth because you are upside down!!111!

How can plain land on a treadmill if its upside down? Please exsplain.

Shawnee123 · 08-21-2010, 10:18 AM

Wow, I knew you Aussies were backwards but I had no idea you were also upside down.

ZenGum · 08-21-2010, 06:22 PM

Jinx, well OBVIOUSLY, we put the treadmill upside down too. Then the plane can land on (or should that be under) the underneath side of it. Clear?

It is worth noting that the round earth debaters often wrote "aeroplane", which is British-style English, so these twits are probably not from the US. "Plain" and "gravaty" can be attributed to general stupidity, but we knew that already.

I'll be the person banging on the keyboard .... wouldn't be the first time.

There. Now it seems more plausible.

The bed, the couch, even the floor are all probably more comfortable locations for your banging needs.

My favorite was the eyeball flopping around on the optic nerve.

Gravdigr, that was excellent. I've always said I'd rather troubleshoot/fix 20 computers than one printer.

classicman · 08-23-2010, 03:24 PM

I have no issues with programmers.

Just the printer that works only when it feels like it. Pretty much as described above.

GunMaster357 · 08-23-2010, 03:53 PM

I do have issue with printers too...

Or may be with the guys who devellop the printer drivers...

Why can't they come up with printers that have the same margins (top, left, right, bottom)?

Nearly every time I create a report, the costumer is unhappy because it doesn't print right.

How 'bout they just WRITE A FUCKING PRINTER DRIVER??

It seems obvious that more time is spent on things like checking how much ink is left in the printer and giving you a handy menu so you can click whether you need to print a photo, or a powerpoint presentation, or an email, etc. than is spent making sure you can actually send stuff out to the printer.

It's almost enough to make me nostalgic for the bad old days of the Epson ESC codes. At least you could tell exactly how things were fucked up.

Lamplighter · 08-23-2010, 05:03 PM

Talk about nostalgia...

MS Word 5.0 back in the early days was about 100k and just about as good as the current version.
No bells-n-whistles, but a easy-to-use word processor.

But then, things were always better back in the dark recesses of my mind.
