Story of my life. When you try to walk in every direction at once, you either trip over yourself, or all the opposing vectors cancel each other out. Whichever metaphor you wanna use...

Yeah, that happens to me too. I have started literally hundreds of projects in the past 7 years, only to cancel the vast majority of them. Some are still coming along, though, slowly...

I'm possibly considering entering my short film in the nicktoons animation festival. If I do, it will appear on nicktoons network every now and then.

Of course, I'm not showing it anywhere, for fear of stealing, until it is fully copyrighted, and in the festival.

Basically, the same thing that happened with my comics. I'd thought it'd be a good idea to have a couple started out so when I get bored with one I would switch to another. No work done as a result.

Heh, you should see all the projects I've started... :/

That's why I don't start alot of things, they never get finished unless I can just knock them off in a couple hours.

"CONGRATULATIONS!!! YOU JUST BOUGHT SOMETHING!!"

There's only two ways to interpret this statement:
*I'm so mentally challenged that it's a major accomplishment that I was somehow able to find my way out of the facility and down to the store to
get this thing without getting killed.
*I'm being cynically manipulated by marketing hacks.

Of course, the second is the correct interpretation, but they don't want you to have that one. So the only other interpretation is the first one.

My pet peeve is when this happens:

1. I check the e-mail. (You check the e-mail. I check the e-mail. You check the e-mail. Dear Strong Bad...)
2. In my e-mail, there are several topic reply notifications for the same forum, often this one.
3. I open all of the e-mails and their corresponding threads.
4. Somewhere between opening the first and the last thread -- usually (always?) between the first and second -- my browser session is somehow lost and I am logged out of the forum.
5. Naturally, I log back in.
6. Now suddenly all posts are marked as read, because I had logged out and logged back in after reading the first post. Never mind that I never intended to log out in the first place, and didn't even take any action to do so.

This happens all the time... I know it's a browser problem and not a forum problem, but I don't know how to fix it.

Another of my many peeves: When people say "You're welcome" right after doing something, if you didnt say thank you.

It's really annoying and rather rude. It's like saying "That small, pointless task I did for you was so wonderful, you should have thanked me."

The worst part about it is that EVERY TIME, I would have thanked them, except that they didnt give me time. It was just "Here's your napkin. Your welcome. (I'm important.)"

_________________

One of my long-running peeves is the phrase "if you please". Some people use it instead of just "please". This phrase is a mistranslation of the French "s'il vous plaît". Anyone who knows French knows that it means "if it pleases you", not "if you please". Object pronouns precede the verb.

I hate it when people say that and sound all classy when they're really not making sense at all.

1. People deleting my posts with no clear reason why they did so.
2. People shouting out Internet phraces in real life. Like "LOWEL" or "EL OH EL". But what bugs me the most is when they're Abe Lincoln memes.
"WUT DUZ DE SCANAR SAI?@" "DO A BAREL ROL" "IN SOWVET RUSHU *insert some Naruto ref here*" "NOE YU!"
This comic pretty much sums it all up for me:

Hmm, I knew that "s'il vous plaît" means "if it pleases you" -- I don't speak French, but that aspect of grammar is similar in Spanish -- but I didn't know that "if you please" comes from it.

And, of course, even if "if you please" were correct French grammar, that doesn't make it correct English grammar.

It's possible that it doesn't come from "s'il vous plaît", though, even if it looks like it does... it's always difficult to know the origins of expressions like these for sure.

You know what I can't stand? Club penguin. Before my sister didn't use computers, now I can't get her off. That's MY job. Plus she hogs all the bandwith.

I also can't stand people who mispronounce Mexican names, especally where I live. Here, half the population is mexican, so why can't teachers and telemarketers get it right?

You got to hand it to English, Ent. It may be the most difficult language to learn with all the rules, exceptions, vowels and whatnot. I still can't get over how one person said Que (tilde, I know) as Kuu repeatedly. IT'S KAY! KAY!

In short, blame the over complicatedness of the English language.

Lots and lots of spam. Mostly in Forum Games.

Which is where spam belongs.

No, Forum Games is for Forum Games.

Forum Games are spam.

Seriously, "What the Fake Location Above You is Thinking?" That's something like the spammiest thing I've ever heard of.

Forum games are spam. Or else you would allow posts to count in that forum.

Forum games are spam, because the posts have no point and add to no real conversation.

The posts add to the games.
Granted, some of those are a bit spammy.

Yeah, they're more than a BIT spammy.


The last post game needs to die.

And this thread needs to get back on topic.

The games themselves are spam, because they do not have any point. If they had a point, and you really did consider them valid topics of conversation, you would enable post count.
