So I got a Christmas card in the mail. It was from the ceo of the company I work for.

It featured a photo of himself posing with his trophy wife in front of his lavishly x-mas decorated villa in Tuscany.

Sigh. Fuck off.
I'd like to think he was trying to annoy you, cause the cluelessness needed otherwise really hurts.
Hey now, look on the dark, fetid underside; dude absolutely did this either as a tax write off "business expense" or straight up just billed his company to foot the cost of printing all his Christmas family cards.

Happy Holidays!

Oh yes, he does that.

Our movie theater of choice (Cinemark) has stopped selling their truffle fries. Go tell the others; take to the streets in protest; cover your face in ash, as there will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

The theaters I go to never had them to begin with. The closest was Cajun fries at the Emagine Theater, but I stopped going there years ago, and I don't think they do those anymore.

Imax movie tickets are $33.

And they're confused why movie theaters are dying.

WTF?

I have not been to IMAX since The Dark Knight. Glad I stopped, but I never went that often to begin with.

I see myself going to the show even less for next year. MCU Doomsday or whatever I really don't care about. Supergirl I am interested in, but at this point, I am mainly waiting for Sonic 4 and Beyond Spider-Verse in 2027.

It's a gift for my mom for Christmas. She loves the Avatar movies. Otherwise I definitely wouldn't be bothering with Imax.

This is the first time that I'll be watching a 3D movie while wearing contacts though. Every other time I've gone I had to wear 3D glasses on top of glasses, which is annoying, so maybe I'll actually enjoy it this time.

All I can say is enjoy your gift the best you can. Have fun.

Funny story, I did it the other way around. I wore the 3D glasses and put my eye glasses over them. Seemed to work fine.

We're heading towards a cyberpunk dystopia soon enough, but without the sick-ass cyborg samurai bikers and rockstar hackers.
Be the change you want to see in the world.

Seriously though with how Japan has been doing lately, I wonder what the dystopian aesthetic will evolve to. Something more Chinese maybe?

Quite literally, since one of the defining background lore bits of the titular Cyberpunk itself (which spawned the genre that now shares it's name) was what was once the United States getting embroiled in a forever war in South America at the behest of a shadowy cabal of power brokers who ran the country.



The best/worst/craziest part? That country that was invaded that popped it all off?

A little place called Man-, I mean, Venezuela.



I want off of this fucking ride and out of this fucking nightmare of a one-and-a-half ring circus/clown show reality has become, please.

The summary of how my morning went (my computer died. Again. And needed to be reset. Again. Fully, from the Windows boot disk. Again. For the 6th time.), here represented by some choice, memeable gifs:
ppf-lol.gif

Oh, and then I found out WWIII has moved from 'Spanish Civil War' territory (war in Ukraine) to full blown 'Invasion of Poland' territory (Bombing/invading fucking Venezuela. Venezuela! Motherfucking Venezuela!!! A country who, in popular media, was the subject of invasion, NOT ONLY by vaguely American shaped forces based around late Cold War Era troops by the aforementioned punk of the cyber kind, they even got 'interventioned' by vaguely American shaped forces based around GWOT troops by the fucking trashy pulp videogame Mercenaries 2. A game from fucking close to fucking 20 years ago now. That. Fucking. VENEZUELA?!?!?!)

Holy shit and hellfire, what the actual fuck!

Again. My computer died and need a full reset, from the lengthy period of time it took me from trying to fix it from the first time I found it broken in the two minutes since I had woken up this morning, blissfully unaware. The length of time? 30 mins, if that.

The final, coup de grace kick in the nuts? I know, and have known since a bit before the middle of last year, what the problem has been. I misdiagnosed the problem when I was first chasing down this problem from the moment I first started this rig up after building it with my own two hands, and know-how from a life of being around electronics, and recent work on automobiles. I threw literal hundreds of dollars in parts at this before actually taking more than the time it took to think about what a memory issue could be just by reading the error code name out loud and searched up the actual, root cause.

I scoffed at the result, shook my head and had a little chuckle at how silly I had been, and lessons learnt from the experience. The actual fix, I once again naively thought at the time, would be cheap, and while not exactly easy (my new rig, while way better organized than my previous outing, is still rather cramped for space inside at present due to design choices I willing made), would at be simple enough, because what else, possibly, could go wrong (at that point in time)?

It's a an issue with my ram. At least 32gb worth on the bright side, all 64gb most likely, bunk, though works when it feels like it, and with billion dollar corpos scooping up all the ram sticks like a junkie does to satisfy his fiending ass nature.

There will be a rather larger, more in depth summary of this failure, and more, once I finally come down from my Mount Crumpet of pure, blindingly, white hot visceral rage at the fact I woke up at all today at this point in time.

FUCKING VENEZEULA!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK!!!








FUCK

I swear some places never make the rules clear, and they temp ban you for the dumbest reasons or don't say anything until after the fact. If what I was doing or lack of doing such a big problem, then why wasn't the person given a warning way beforehand. Especially after multiple posts where said person did contribute to the conversation or thread at hand.

I am already sick of the cold weather, as we've been getting low temps and snow like crazy in Michigan this time. I hate it.

Pretty much the definition of shameless white trash -



You can just tell from the thumbnail how screwed up those kids will be without some sort of intervention. What’s sad is there are tons of people more fit to have kids that can’t. Such is life.

Whatever, just wash your hands.

Technically this is the sort of thing you are supposed to report, not something to make a point and laugh video on. You know if she was dark skinned her pic would show up in some RNC propaganda piece about them stealing all our generous welfare.
