Just think how much Blizzard have to pay for the bandwith and server maintenance. That's why theres a fee for most MMORPG's. Unlike FPS games where normally an isp will host the servers.
Now back on topic.
I can't stand people who block me while I'm shopping. Especially the ones that just stand there in the middle of the aisle looking at stuff.

That isn't what I was doing you fool. I'm objecting to your blinkered stance which assumes you are always right and always morally superior or more worthy than people you attack or bait for no apparent reason thread after thread.
I'm tired of it, quite frankly.
</DIV></DIV>
Now, In one respect I can see what you're driving at. In another, I cannot see how it relates to this thread. No body, not even I have claimed that anyones life, or age has granted them a wisdom beyond their years. I have seen, and do see minds that are so clouded with their own youth that they see enemies on every front. You included. Lets not even mention how tired we are of that. You are not a shining pillar of adulthood by any definition.
I asked you to re-read my post. The one you claimed was somehow re-written and remove the angriness from it. If you had done that you would have noted my genuine curiosity in the human growth pattern. I have had innumerable incidents with people, if not as touchy as you, at least close who always come up to me at one time or another and say that at least one discussion we had stuck in their minds. That topic either turned out the way I said it would or something similar enough that they were aware of it and felt the need to tell me so. Not every discussion was horrible, and not every prediction turned out so you see my curiosity.
Life has its differences, but some of life's experiences will remain constant and those are the ones I am curious about. Just because some of you are still in school doesn't mean that I am not willing to learn from an experiment once in a while. That post was mine and you have nearly ruined it because no one seems willing to answer. That could mean that no one has an answer or no one has one yet.
In fact, if either of us two should be insulted and/or mad right now it should be me after you twice wronged me in the same thread, and now after hours you are still compounding it by being unwilling to notice how and where.
The only thing I feel after the hours is sorrow and a bit of pity because you have create a gulf that I doubt can be filled now. Yeah, we will remain friends but your quickness to see evil where none lies is a thing I cannot deal with. True friends see things less harsh first. You have issues that I do not ever want to know about because quite frankly, whatever they are, they pale to what I dealt with at your age and I evidentially handled it better than you are doing now. Life molds us into what we will eventually become. My mold is a strange one but it is at least complet. The shape is not important. The wholeness is. You mold? Its best if you figure that one out.
Now, go back and re-read it once more and remove all the accusatory replies and see if it wasn't nothing more than me asking everyone if anyone recalls a time when we talked about some future event that may have come true.
If you continue this angry path, you continue it alone because I am only interested in my question, not yours.
The best things in life, aren't things.

Not seeing, that seems our only commonality right now.
Enough then. If you are still seeing anger, and I am blind then we have run our courses.
Perhaps, someday.. Perhaps.

Well then, my olive tree is totally denuded. I used its last branch on you as I recall.
You let me know when you're ready. I need to plant another tree. Someone else may need it.

That's great, this is a great vibe in here right now. It's
like daddy just hit mommy at the dinner table and we're all trying to
eat still.
"Just eat honey, mommy's okay. Daddy just got a little angry, just eat."
"I don't want to eat."
"Mommy's fine, daddy just got a little crazy and mommy's fine."
"Do I have to eat?"
"Yes, you have to eat."

What ticks me off are people like Paris Hilton and Kevin Federline.
They do nothing and are only a burden on society. They have s**tloads of money for sitting around and partying all day. They have no respect for anyone else and have a huge ego. They think they are the idol of culture and have tons of mindless fans who would worship their turds if they could.

Alot of things... people touching me, certain people talking to me,
high-pitched laughter, teasing, stuff that keeps breaking or refuses to
work properly...
I'm allergic to tequila, it makes me break out in felonies.

Things that hack me off?

One has to wonder, is being miserable environmentally created, or are some people predestined to be so because of their genes?

I'm just posting about things that annoy me TBH, there's no big read
into them. What on earth could you draw from my statements to propose
such a question?

We are doing fine. We have a fondness that transcends petty squabbles. We also have a fondness for petty squabbles.
This just happens to be one of the latter.
Personally, I'm not quite ready for him to stop yet. :heee:

at the sunny side of an issue, people who look only at the dark side of
an issue, people who don't do what they're supposed to do, people who
are worried that they are doing too much work, people who claim to know

Stuff that is designed with defects, stuff that can't be fixed, Nokia

Nickelplate, because the guy is just flat-out, no-beating-around-the-bush retarded, much like most of the Snarkpit's newbies and younger population; condescending, judgmental elitists; manipulative people, materialistic people, and dishonest people; people who abhor violence; people who glorify violence; people who, though tactful and mannered, can't seem to understand that tact and manners are supposed to express respect; people who talk about what they don't know about; myself; wanton usage of the semicolon to convey sophistication; people who can't take things seriously; anyone who firmly believes that they know much of anything about anything; myself; myself; myself.
