Switching topics, I hate when my dad calls me with computer problems. He has a really short temper with computers when they aren’t functioning to his expectations, and it annoys me to sit there and listen to him rant about how he wants to “throw this machine out the window”. That attitude doesn’t help me fix it any faster.

My dad usually just doesn’t call me.

EDIT: Actually that’s not fair, he calls sometimes but he never visits me.

I’m terrible helping people with tech because I get frustrated that they don’t get it right away.

Ok, let’s start being a lot nicer in here and respect other’s tastes in animated entertainment.

I watch Teen Titans Go! from time to time. Cartoon Network shows it so much now it’s actually hard to miss. It’s often stupid, but sometimes it’s brilliant. The Night Begins To Shine multi-parter was like a love letter to the 80’s and could have been easily an episode of the previous TT series. Still amazed that song isn’t actually from the '80’s. And the one recent episode done in cheapo 1960’s Filmation style was hilarious.

Bailed my friend out of jail today. Arrested for a DUI.

Then got into a huge argument with him because he was furious with me for daring to be angry with him for driving drunk when his entire job is based around being able to drive.

Sorry I’ve allowed you to leave my house drunk in the past. I shouldn’t have. I’ve driven drunk before too. I’m a hypocrite. Doesn’t make the situation okay. And if literally bailing you out of jail isn’t the time to give you a “You fucked up, you can’t pull shit like this” speech, when is?

So sick of helping people, especially when they’re never there for me when I need it.

Yeah, my friends suck ass too. I don’t and apparently am not supposed to drink so I refuse to be around anyone that does for the most part. My friends actually outright refuse to help me when I ask them.

I don’t think Chyron deserved all that. It is a fairly large community.

Once again, I’m not saying he wants to have sex with kids or horses.

I’m saying it’s weird for a grown man to enjoy that show on the merits (whatever those happen to be).

Just because a lot of people do something doesn’t make it not weird.

I’m sure you have your eccentricities too, Frink. Doesn’t justify mine being mocked.

Other than pretending to be a computer for six months, he’s pretty normal.

Everyone has indeed has their own eccentricities, interests and such like - and no-one deserves to be mocked for them.

And with that we’ll leave the whole subject there - and move on.

Reported. That was contemptuous.

Guys, I wasn’t kidding.

Thank you Handman. I agree he didn’t deserve all that.

But also to be clear, whether it is a large community or not is irrelevant. There are any number of reasons why people enjoy things. It’s not up to us to judge people’s tastes.

Now, since I was one of the few to come chyron8472’s defence, I realize there may be questions (voiced or not) about my tastes in cartoons. Those questions are equally irrelevant. I can’t stand seeing people get picked on. Period.

Any further discussion of this other than “I’m sorrys” only furthers the vitriol.

Now then, my wife has been enjoying watching a Let’s Play of Stardew Valley lately. We’ve been watching it because I’m playing it on my Switch. She liked the game enough that she wanted me to purchase it for her on PC so she could play it on her laptop.

Here’s the thing though: she doesn’t play video games that aren’t point-and-click or smartphone games. She plays RuneScape a lot, which is largely mouse-based. So she got frustrated pretty quickly with not knowing how to use WASD+mouse controls. Fortunately the (360) controller layout is a bit simpler, but she still was complaining about the controls being wonky for her.

I guess don’t like it when people complain about things not working right when the problem really is user error or that they haven’t given themselves enough time to learn how to use it.

I’d say it’s none of my business except you are the one who brought it up…do you think that she likes when you complain about her in a very public internet forum?
