-posts per page-terrible mobile/tablet action-posts per page-No moving avatars are allowed anymore-post per page-loading speed-posts per page-Multi-quoting is stupid now-posts per page...and don't even get me started on posts per page.

The mobile/tablet stuff doesn't apply to me, so it doesn't matter.I don't care that moving avatars aren't allowed, but I wish there was a way to have them not show up at all. Same with images in posts.The posts per page thing wouldn't be an issue if the loading times were quicker.What's wrong with the multi-quoting?

I think I'm just going to start locking my keys in my car and using the spare I keep in the gas cap for the times I lock my keys in my car (which is often). Currently sitting in a coffee shop eating a bagel and drinking an orange juice because I don't like coffee and didn't see anything else on the menu that was not coffee or homosexual waiting for the dude to make my new keys. Felt weird just coming in and siting here.Some dude wearing a tye dye shirt heard my order and said "orange juice and a bagel, huh?". I think I just grunted at him because what do you say to a guy like that, you know?

I had a bagel and an orange juice for breakfast today. blueberry with strawberry cream cheese. fruitiest breakfast ever. the bagel was crap and clearly at least a day or two old so I'm never doing it again.when I finally got to the post office at the appropriate hour, I found out that they don't accept credit cards (for money orders). look, I don't know my PIN, and rectifying this situation is a pain, and I don't ever use cash, so why do I need a PIN anyway? it was 3:35 and I had until 4 to turn the thing in. I burn five minutes just attempting to find a branch of the bank account I actually use, then fold and go to the bank that used to employ me, where I've got a rather large chunk of my net worth stashed away. so I go in and write a check, obviously you know who waits on me. it's been however many months and everyone wants to talk, but I have like 10 minutes left, so I say something like, "I really gotta go or this woman is going to really enjoy saying she can't help me" and rush out of there.

"I really gotta go, but maybe we can finish this conversation over a drink when you get off?"

I really, really doubt there was ever anything there, and I question whether I could be happy in a relationship with someone who is... well, not the brightest. I couldn't see any of that when it was all happening, though.

Good luck with a life of masturbation and all that pride

you wanna know something that is downright infuriating? imagine a practice essay question on contracts and i'm just murdering it. i know its about this and i'm putting down the law like its my job, but then i get to the end of the answer and i cannot find any law on this one very specific question. i need a definition. if an acceptance (of an offer) is sent through the mail, when it is technically received? when the guy gets the letter in his hand or when he opens it. if its physical possession then he's breaching by taking another job. if he had to read the letter then he isn't breaching. but that definition isn't in any of the outlines i paid 3300 bucks for, so i don't know for sure. well **** you and **** your acceptance by mail bullshit. what is this 1854? I QUIT.

it's not pride. it was forgetting what it was like to talk to people in my age group who aren't retarded. that part of working in KC has been a breath of fresh air.

[InternetExplorer]

and yes I know I said my coworkers are retarded (the new one is either mildly retarded or a dwarf or both I'm not sure) but other people in the department are pretty awesome.

like you too dog.and yes the answer is the mailbox rule. when a rejection is mailed before an acceptance (as in the problem), whichever is received first controls. the acceptance got their first, but the guy didn't open it. he then accepted another offer, and called the original guy to tell him he can't work for him. so the question is can the original guy enforce the contract. i said yes, assuming that "received" means physical possession. because then he would have received acceptance of a valid and still open offer before accepting a different offer that conflicts. but hell if i know for sure.
