Last good thread.

Post stories that made you rage

selfish bump

I tend to block out bad experiences from my memory. I know that i have been angry over computery things, but I'm not allowing myself to remember those moments in time.

12 months of subscription for a single key press. Its now a running joke with us all. The lady comes in all the time though, so it wasn't a complete waste for her to subscribe in the end. Even if she'll never know that.
