Mariano Rivera tore his ACL and has potentially ended his season/career. I don't think it's normal how upset I am.

My theory (that you keep referring to as 'end-of-the-world' theory) has nothing to do with natural disasters, but with nuclear attacks.
It's gonna happen.
And I'll get my books.
What if someone nukes Hype's city and he dies? Whom should I offer my condolences to and request my books from?
Re: What's annoying you today?
No one will nuke my city. (A) I'm in Canada. (B) I'm not in Toronto. (C) I'm nowhere near the closest big American city. The local bison is really tasty up here though.

Re: What's annoying you today?
Ebay is becoming more and more of a pain in the ass to sell stuff on. Now they require a credit card from the seller (aka: me) to "back up" their "buyer protection plan." Between the eBay and Paypal fees, it's almost a 20% ding off whatever the sell price is of an item. Not to mention for certain stuff like CDs and Records, eBay has a set maximum shipping price the seller can charge which is absurdly low for 2012.

Re: What's annoying you today?
the people "running" this project i'm working on.
A third party SAP programmer is writing a new IT system (that we use to manage spare parts orders and repairs) that my team will use to provide a service to our client. We go live on 15th July, we have no user guides ready yet (nine weeks till go live), we have no training plan (to train us as super users) we have no plan for training end users..
The powers that be "feel there is a bit of dissatisfaction and unhappiness in the team". Oh. My. Fucking. God.
We've got hundreds of test cases to go thru and we've taken 90 mins to go thru one! We have to CAT at the same time as being trained so we can train others later... It's hilarious.
this is fucking fucked.

I always use Amazon to sell stuff. It's worked pretty well as long as you get over $5 for the item that you are selling, otherwise you spend your share on shipping, Amazon's allotment is pretty measily. Other than that though, they take like an 8% or 10% cut of the sale price...... so not bad for the service they provide.
Re: What's annoying you today?
i've used both and amazon is definitely the easiest to use. last time i sold something on amazon i had the option of sending the items to them and they would ship and fulfill the order for a little more of a cut. i liked that idea especially if you are selling a lot of books. just put them in one big box and let them deal with the rest.mockbee wrote:Pandemonium wrote:Ebay is becoming more and more of a pain in the ass to sell stuff on.

German soccer, yeah i am a fan but today i hate it.
Re: What's annoying you today?
Friends and relatives who think I'm some kind of fucking cheap millionaire.
Yeah, IBM and Microsoft realized they have too much money, so they recently decided to be extra-nice to their outsourced translators.
Stupid fucks.
What pisses me off the most is that I know they earn more than what I do, but they are kinda scared that I might make more money
Assholes. I hate all this shit. I'm usually pretty comfortable talking about money and about MY money, until the pseudo-jokes start. I'm not a closet millionaire, I'm a fucking middle-class worker.

yeah, well, they're insecure then, very simple. You're threatening them, which isn't something you should feel guilty about of courseLarry B. wrote: What pisses me off the most is that I know they earn more than what I do, but they are kinda scared that I might make more money

I eBay as a side job. Ebay is just a necessary evil because they've cornered the market.
Amazon can't compete with ebay. eBay's market share is just so much larger.
The ONLY force that could possibly beat eBay is if google or facebook started an acution/sales site.

Biopsy on my left lung which fucking sucks because I do not and never have smoked anything but weed. But it is what it is. Here's to another year of shittiness.
