DISENGAGING BIGOTRY DEFENSE MECHANISMS.

8/8/2016

I'm not 'leet enough to hang with hardcore badasses.

Damn, dude. I just realized that I'm just a babby and all I wanted was love.

Damn, fam. I'm all scared and confused and shit. Like, I don't care and I'm just ironically shitposting into space with nihilistic chagrin.

When I came here I had a dream. In that dream, I saw myself as a successful businessman selling garbage to yokels. I'm awake now... THINGS WILL NEVAR EVAR BE THE SAME*

I laughed, I cried and I got lost on the ride.

Now it's boring. The forums that were once ripe with excitement have now rotten from inside. I touch my cock and I can feel my pulse.

I just want you to know, you individually, that you deserve to be happy in life and that my celestial butthole shimmers for your fortune. I shall return someday far away.

Good night, sweet prince.

Reminds me of the time I renamed the IE 6 icon to internet exploder. Then went further and had the shortcut point to firefox. (this was 6 years or so ago)

[Eggdodger]

@PastryOfApathy - Is there anything different about that slide in particular other than it doesn't work? I would try more browsers than Firefox and IE.

It happened with multiple "lessons" all on the same numbered slide. It just shows a blank white screen with nothing I can press.

It is very common for Enterprise online courses to be peculiar and dependent on IE. That, combined with being on just about every home computer, was one of the major reasons IE6 was so hard to kill. For the first 3 years at my company, you simply couldn't get it to work on anything else. For another year or two after, it was hit-or-miss whether it would work on something else.

Take screenshots with instructions on what you tried and send them to your supervisor so you have a record that you are trying. If you have some kind of help ticketing system, submit a problem ticket for this in there as well and include whatever ID it gives you in the info you provide to your supervisor.

[Lopaw]

There is a add on for chrome and firefox called IE tab that lets you avoid using IE for things that only work in it. More or less opens a tab that can be set to render the page based on how various versions of IE used to.

Yeah, fuck working class whites! Fucking privileged poor white folk. Oh, I hate 'em! Who do they think that are? Living in their trailers, being hungry and shit. They're just SO morally inferior. Oh, and gamers... those losers. Why don't they go just outside and touch a vagina or something? Scum.

Lee, you and me... we're cool guys, right? I mean, we obviously have our inferiors.

Let us retire to reddit with a tip of our fedoras so that we may be amongst our kind.

There's no way I'm being facetious. I genuinely hate poor white people, gamers, and people with autism spectrum disorders. They're just so below great people like ourselves.

For real.

I want to go to both Cedar Point and Michigan's Adventure this year. Here's the reason why: I've never been to Michigan's Adventure, and while I've been to Cedar Point in the past, I have never been to its water park (Soak City). So I would love to go to both parks and both of their water parks. (Both parks are owned by the same parent company).

No problem with the parks themselves, both are open until the end of October. But the water parks at each are only open until Labor Day, a month from now. Bah. Not a lot of time to get enough money to go to both.

@LazerMaster5 They're closing and demolishing the mean streak as well.

Aww damn, they took the Go Karts out too?! Geez, what else are they going to remove for some retardedly big as fuck coaster?

Edit, again:
Okay, so Michigan's Adventure (the entire park) is only open until Labor Day.... ugh.... and Cedar Point has the larger water park.

I feel like this is the beginning of the end for wooden coasters as a whole as they slowly get replaced by smoother, easier to build and maintain steel coasters. Shame, I love wooden coasters and their rough yet enduring ride. I certainly hope Kennywood in Pittsburgh continues to maintain their wooden coasters. Wooden coasters are a piece of history that I feel should be preserved.

People laughed at my Squier stratblaster with P90's, tri-ply b/w pickguard, and its sick-ass Floyd Rose bridge system as I vomited out wicked power chords through my 15 watt amp. They said it was "gawdy" and "tasteless". Well, look at me now, mom! I still haven't touched a vagina or got a "real" job, but I can play the shit out of Bat Country! A7X is soooo metal.

Whoops! I broke a string. Better go to guitar center and get a new set put on.

Plenty of jobs where the supervisors won't care that you can't finish the training due to a glitch in their software, and will fire you for non-compliance with training or simply don't give you hours because you didn't complete the training. This happened to my step-brother when he worked at Kroger years ago (for the two weeks he was there) and one of my other pals at Superior Grocer just this past Spring (for the single week she was there, and I helped her get the job in the first place.)

That's still a terrible reason to throw away a career dude.

This isn't just like some dead-end bagging job at Kmart or something. Like I can't just casually find another one no problem.

Well, theres several newly built Wooden Coatsers in Europe (especially "Colossos" in germany's "Heide park"), so Wooden Coasters are most definetly not dead, just perhaps "out" in Amurrica!

I rode the Racer, Thunderbolt, and Jackrabbit at Kennywood, back when I was a little babbykid.

Jackrabbit was a bit too jerky for me, but I loved the other two.

to be fair, the mean streak (last time i went in like 2012) was really showing its' age. it wasn't a fun ride anymore which is the problem. i don't like that they're replacing instead of maintaining, but i also wonder how much proper maintenance you can do with the rides they have and how poorly the ride handles nowadays.

michigan's adventure is honestly not a super huge park, and realistically you're not missing much, but it's a lot more on the nose for what you'd want out of a day trip. if you've been to cedar point and you've gotten the full experience there, though, you might be a little let down. again; it's still fun, but it's by no means a big park.

Cedar Point is pretty rad. I Vastly prefer it to Darien Lake here.
