If I replace “can be” with “is” in that post, you get:

Not every day is Tuesday.

Oh my god.

“Not every day can be Tuesday.”

“Not only can every day be Tuesday, every day is Tuesday.”

Do we really need to go on?

Speaking of which, I’d like to formally b*tch about how my T-Mobile cellular connection is, at best, one-hundred times better than the Internet I have at home. This is the best speed-test I have ever received with T-Mobile:

97.14 megabits per second download; 24.38 megabits per second upload; 33 millisecond ping

Now, my wireline connection:

1.27 megabits per second download; 0.19 megabits per second upload, 14 millisecond ping

This is ludicrous. While I usually get speeds like this from T-Mobile:

that’s still a massive improvement. I’ve taken to not using hotel WiFi on my phone at all, just using the cellular data connection. The fact that that ensures my security and privacy as well is an added bonus.

The catch is that T-Mobile’s coverage barely reaches where I live, but it reaches most of the places I go to. And even though this is an unlimited plan, there’s a cap at which they will start throttling if you go over, so I’d never be able to use this as a substitute for an actual grounded Internet connection.

Ugh.

Related: I just spent $125 on a Straight Talk mobile hotspot and 7GB of data for it because I’m sick and fucking tired of my apartment complex not fixing our internet (which I mercifully haven’t been asked to pay for in months).

Can’t wait until my lease is up so I can move somewhere where I have the option of going with Comcast or AT&T or whoever else services my area instead of being stuck with the leasing company’s private ISP…

JEDIT: Oh, and in 2 days I’ve already used 3GB of the 7GB plan I paid for…ugh. Better than going over on mobile data on my family Verizon plan and having to explain to my mom why the bill jumped up $30 at the end of the month, I guess.

You should check if there’s any fiber services in your area.

Doesn’t matter, at my apartment complex I have to go through their ISP. I have to move before I have any other options.

I just have a straight talk unlimited phone plan and can just use my phone as a hotspot with no extra charge. It’s great. Obviously no substitute for real internet but it’s good enough to watch YouTube or Netflix in reasonable quality if you’re some place without WiFi and just looking to pass the time.

The first 10 GB are at a higher speed, but after that it still works with no fees but it’s a little slower but I’ve never even noticed when I’ve gone over do it must still be good enough to do simple things like that.

Eh, I guess I could’ve done that, but the mobile hotspot seemed like a better idea than getting a separate phone just to use as a hotspot.

Though the unlimited data (which you can’t get with the hotspot, 7GB is the max amount of data you can buy at a time) would’ve been a nice perk.

Yeah I mean just get rid of Verizon completely and use that lol I didn’t get a separate phone that is my phone.

I noticed a couple dead pixels on my Nintendo Switch’s screen last night. I have a screen protector so it’s not my fault. Unfortunately, word is that Nintendo says a limited number of dead pixels are a normal occurrence on LCDs so they don’t deem it worthy of replacement. Even if that’s true, it’s still annoying.

Holy shit this.

Or when they split up finally and you have that cathartic talk with your friend about how much of a piece of shit the gf/bf was and you’re happy they finally saw through the bullshit and dumped them…

…and then two weeks later they’re back together and expect you to act like you were rooting for them all along when you two just had a whole conversation about what a piece of shit that person was.

…What? I’m not bitter at all.

Yeah, people are horrible. Like most people, their gfs and bfs fuckin’ suck too.

At about 4:00 this morning, I drank a large cup of half-hot chocolate/half-cappuccino I got from a 7-Eleven. Then around 6:00, I finally went to sleep and slept for about three hours.

Is it any wonder my stomach is so cranky now?

I’m bitching about my own mistakes reading things sometimes.

I clicked on the “Going away?” thread for the first time in a while and it put me at mfm’s post from November 6th. I misread it as November 26th (today), and thought this was all happening within the last half hour. After beginning photoshop construction on a terrible mock movie poster for Mfm - The Crackdown: Ditto X, but then looked back and realized that the joke would be stale and moldy because twenty days ago.
