    i'm a little bitter i guess, it was one of those aspects of my speech that made me sound different from my classmates at school, so other children would make jokes about it

    with accent stuff, i tended to mimic the other kids in an effort to fit in, but 'haitch' was just wrong, so i got stubborn about it

    You know what's a good animal?

    Woodlice.  They are cute.

    And mostly benign, since they feed on rotten material and rarely harm living plants.

    here's something i don't get

    why, when you click to close a non-responsive program, do you then get a loading bar and a 'checking for a solution' message, instead of the program just, y'know, closing?

    on Windows 7

    ive always kinda presumed that sometimes it will actually find a solution and recover the program, but i've literally never seen it happen soooo

    It's not just Windows 7; 8.1 and 10 do it too. And...yeah, I don't know. I wondered about that too.

    It's attempting to self-diagnose the problem by comparing data collected from the crash/malfunction with known error data on a Microsoft server. If the developer/distributor of the software has made a point of coordinating with MSDN, there's a chance that this will be able to identify frequently-mentioned errors, and direct users with a known issue to a solution. However, given the vast range of potential errors in the wild, the automatic bug-fixing system doesn't work terribly well.

    i just kinda wondered, cuz i've never seen that happen either

    and whenever i've clicked that it's always been from a standpoint of, fine, i give up, just close it already

    You just don't understand the Voice of the Millennial Generation
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    pronouncements about 'millennials' and what they like/do/believe really set my teeth on edge
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I don't blame you at all.

    Earlier today I ended up in this weird state where I was awake but dreaming as if I were asleep.

    It was really weird, the situations I was in felt so real, but then I would snap back to reality and realize I was all alone in my bedroom...
  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    And I notice that which people count as mllennials seems to be slipping, too. Are people just a bit younger than me millennials? Are people still in high school now millennials? Does anyone even know?
  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    THis bugs me way more than it should
  • I honestly thought, before it became a buzzword, that a millennial was someone born after the year 2000 (ie. in the new millenium). So my younger brother (who is 13) would be one but I wouldn't be.

    But idk, I have no idea anymore. I've seen it applied to people older than I am (in some cases a good 5-6 years older).
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I'm not sure if I'm supposed to count as one or not. Seems to vary by source.

    Doesn't matter anyway, since I am not a preprogrammed zombie

  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    I've heard that 1977-1982 forms something of a grey area between Gen X and what used to be called Gen Y. 

    But yeah, going by "generations" is kind of silly when you think about it.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Star Trek Generations isn't one of their better movies, either
  • honestly while i like Star Trek i just kinda ignore the movies because the movie format doesnt have much to do with what i like about the franchise
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Some of the Trek movies are good (*cough*evennumbered*cough*) but I do feel that the franchise works better as a TV series.

    If this amounts to me saying something positive about TV then...so be it.

    Star Trek: In the 20th century, the page-naming curse was fairly consistent (to the point where Insurrection's
    crew made a point of calling the film "Nine of Ten" on set to stave off
    the odd number's influence, not that it helped). But this century the
    Curse seems to have gone off the rails — 2002's Star Trek: Nemesis flopped while 2009's Star Trek
    was a hit, contrary to their positions in the series. It is unknown
    whether this anomaly means the curse has actually been broken, or merely
    inverted.
    • Among those who do consider 10 bad and 11
      good, there are several commonly proposed methods to realign the curse
      with "reality". One is using the sum of the digits as an indicator (10; 1+0=1, an odd number and 11; 1+1=2, an even number), or alternatively including the Affectionate Parody Galaxy Quest as a "Star Trek movie", inserting it between 9 (Insurrection) and 10 (Nemesis) as put byimage Sam Hughes. Another theory states that Nemesis wasn't good because it was a multiple of five, and thus, like Star Trek V, was bad; in other words, the curse has a previously-undiscovered FizzBuzz propertyimage. This is followed by the explanation that Star Trek
      doesn't follow the pattern because of the interference of
      time-traveling Romulans — besides, it wasn't made by the same crew as
      the rest. Some have also taken to referring the reboot film as "Star Trek 0," thus placing it in an arguably even spot.
      • The following film, Star Trek Into Darkness, muddies the waters even further; it was successful critically and financially, but created a Broken Base among fans. Some still maintain the curse is now inverted as they felt Into Darkness wasn't as fresh as the 2009 reboot.
