#83450 I feel like I should make a thread

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 08:48 PM in Everything Else

My first forum I belonged to turned into a dictatorship. I got banned when I made a political argument in the "everything goes" section that the admin didn't like.  He had already soured on me but was just looking for a reason to ban me.  One of his friends in the real world that was a part of the forum left after he did that to me.

 

That's BS. It's no fun at all when people like that are in charge.

 

I've only been banned from one forum. It's a company that unfortunately nailed a license to make statues of some very beloved characters, but their quality control and packaging suck so bad you're basically playing Russian Roulette with a loaded gun if you order any of their products.

 

After getting my third flawed statue in a row I snapped and demanded they stop cheating their customers. The reason for the Mod banning me was that I "had an ax to grind". THESE STATUES COST HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS. OF COURSE I'M FUCKING PISSED THAT I'M GETTING RIPPED OFF.

 

...And then he made a rant about he's sad how everyone hates him and something about his autism. Great person they picked as a Mod. At least word is spreading and people are realizing you don't want to buy from these folks. 




#83433 I feel like I should make a thread

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 03:54 PM in Everything Else

^ It's not that my uncle hates these kids or anything, but it's just really scary when he keeps getting the ones who are nonverbal and you never know what's going to send them off the deep end and become destructive. I want him to get a new job so bad because one of his arms has a cadaver bone because he had bone cancer. That bone is super fragile, and basically there just to barely keep his arm on (he can barely use it), so one good hit and it's gone. 

 

I'm not sure. The blog is old, and that's the link that the person gave me. 




#83429 I feel like I should make a thread

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 03:43 PM in Everything Else

..."Tard Blog"?

 

You have my interest.

 

First off, back story as to why I found out about this: On Reddit of all places something ended up making me talk about my uncle's job as a Para. See, he went into it thinking he'd be dealing with kids that just have small issues in the classroom. Like, they can be in a regular class setting, but need an aide to help them stay focused and get the most out of their lesson.

 

Instead, he's put with severely mentally or emotionally unstable kids that are downright dangerous and have their own special classrooms. He's been hit in the face so hard his glasses broke and one kid went off the handle so bad he destroyed a classroom and was suspended. The classroom destroyer is so bad that his mother has no teeth because of all the times he's headbutted her. 

 

Someone linked me to a very bluntly written blog that was supposedly created by a special ed teacher and I think two others after she quit (people will still debate the authenticity if you bring it up). This blog tends to either offend people or make some nod in agreement because they can understand needing to vent after a hard day of keeping your cool and dealing with these kids. 

 

With that out of the way, if you still want to read it, here it is: http://web.archive.o....com/index.html




#83427 I feel like I should make a thread

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 03:26 PM in Everything Else

That sounds like total bullshit.

The way that admin went about his business sort of removes the whole purpose of even being on a forum.

Very Kim Jong Un of him.

 

As for reading our old topics, tread softly.

You may end up in a fantastic world of smut and dick jokes.

 

Spleen: Nailed it buddy.

 

The funny thing is he can't figure out why people don't want to join and the numbers keep getting smaller and smaller. Ever think it might be you, buddy? LOL. 

 

Heh. Just goes to prove I'll fit in fine; those things don't bother me at all. I made a lot of people uncomfortable on that other forum xD Didn't help that I have a real mean sense of humor as well; people were not happy when I mentioned the Tard Blog. 




#83422 Upping the Image and Video Limits?

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 02:26 PM in Suggestions

Serious? I thought I tried around that much and it didn't like it. I'll have to see next time. 




#83415 Upping the Image and Video Limits?

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 01:10 PM in Suggestions

I think people just sometimes do several posts in the thread for pictures. Not entierly sure, mind you.

 

Yeah, I have seen that. Just what is the limit, anyway? I just know it's tiny. 




#83409 I feel like I should make a thread

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 12:26 PM in Everything Else

Realest possible talk:

 

I'm glad you're here, Launch.

 

Awww! Thank you so much! That makes me really happy!




#83403 I feel like I should make a thread

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 11:35 AM in Everything Else

On 90% of forums, this would be deleted as spam, but here the admin makes it


This is truly a great forum.

 

Real talk:

 

Part of the reason why I recently left a forum I'd been a member for a few years at was because of what a Nazi the Admin had become. If you didn't post a certain way that he deemed "constructive", you'd get bitched out. A topic was posted he didn't think would have enough discussion? Deleted, bitched out. 

 

However, the final straw for me was a topic made over GTA getting banned in Australia. It really should've been titled "We Hate Women" because of what people started saying. I was one of the few lady posters at that place, but never really felt alienated until that happened. 

 

This place is so chill and all of you are so nice and interesting. I've been spending time reading past topics to try and get to "know" everyone here. 




#83401 Upping the Image and Video Limits?

Posted by Launch on 21 December 2014 - 11:31 AM in Suggestions

So before in the Collections topic I made I tried to put some images on, but ended up just linking to an Imgur album instead since I got a message about too many images. It seems like the amount you're allowed to put in is really small, which I assume helps out in keeping spammers from going too nuts if they try to add pictures. 

 

Would ten be too much? I can't speak for anyone else, but If I'm looking at a topic where someone's trying to show off how cool something is with images and pictures, I'd rather they just be right in front of me instead of need to click a link to elsewhere. 




#83391 The "What Are You Listening To?" Thread

Posted by Launch on 20 December 2014 - 09:36 PM in Everything Else




#83379 Fuck Yeah, FNAF!

Posted by Launch on 20 December 2014 - 06:10 PM in Video Games

It's honestly the fandom that keeps me interested. I watch a ridiculous amount of FNAF blogs, the majority being humanized versions. 

 

The first game was such a fun experience that really kept me tense and nervous until I got used to the jump scares.

 

Other than Mangle, I was so disappointed with the second game. Phone guy didn't make me laugh, the scares weren't changed up enough so I didn't jump once, and that music box pissed me off. 




#83363 The Legend Of Korra

Posted by Launch on 20 December 2014 - 01:17 PM in Anime

I don't know anything about the Avatar series period, but I've got a buddy on Tumblr who reblogs a ton of it, especially of two lady characters. I'm assuming they're the ones you guys are talking about. So the implied lesbianism is a thing? It's just not a huge thing people ship in the fandom? That's pretty cool.




#83362 The member photo album.

Posted by Launch on 20 December 2014 - 01:15 PM in Everything Else

They can also be jerks, though. One perched right on my friends purse, tried eating it, and then bit her whenever she tried to gently nudged it away. It was there for the majority of the time we where in that enclosure.

 

They're curious about absolutely anything shiny. One actually perched on my glasses for a bit; I was worried it would poop in my hair xD 




#83354 The member photo album.

Posted by Launch on 20 December 2014 - 10:22 AM in Everything Else

I forgot all about this picture. My friends and I went to a ghetto zoo and took turns feeding the parakeets. I have a funny look on my face because the one on my left hand decided to chill there as I was raising it to adjust my glasses.

#83346 Boobs or butts, Pornhub gives us the answers

Posted by Launch on 19 December 2014 - 10:56 PM in Everything Else

Is it weird I'm super gay for some female game characters, but never had a real life lady crush? 




#83342 Boobs or butts, Pornhub gives us the answers

Posted by Launch on 19 December 2014 - 10:11 PM in Everything Else

Dang I love how honest and open people are here.




#83299 Obviously?Duh!

Posted by Launch on 19 December 2014 - 10:17 AM in Everything Else

Well, depending on how religious where you live is, sex ed in school isn't always that great. I learned most things on the internet; never once was any form of birth control ever brought up when we had our yearly "talks" in school. 

 

I've got kind of a weird one: What armadillo is. I really didn't think it was that obscure of an animal. 




#83297 Pets

Posted by Launch on 19 December 2014 - 10:08 AM in Everything Else

Poor Launch and Dhalia.

 

On the other hand, I HAD THE BIGGEST FUCKING THING FOR HEXADECIMAL EVER.

 

Meaning I get your Reboot ref.

 

Wooo! Yeah, Hexadecimal was the best character! It's just a shame that the... Erm... "reboot" of the show is going to be more kid friendly like the first season, but I'll give it a shot and be hopeful anyway. 

 

I never got over that cliff hanger when it got canceled. 




#83250 "Let's Play"s that DON'T suck

Posted by Launch on 18 December 2014 - 12:43 PM in Video Games

Gonna finish that Dread Out LP today. Too bad it's yet another that they dropped; it was pretty entertaining. 




#83188 The Interview, pulled because... I DON'T KNOW!

Posted by Launch on 17 December 2014 - 11:06 PM in Misc. Movies and T.V.

They will just do straight to DVD then and ill be one of the first ones to buy the DVD or Blu-Ray

 

Since this got me all curious I've been reading around and Sony has stated they don't ever plan to release it on any format: http://variety.com/2...iew-1201382167/

 

Granted no one can tell the future, but I'm guessing it will get leaked before there's an official release be it by them or if they do sell the rights.




#83183 The Interview, pulled because... I DON'T KNOW!

Posted by Launch on 17 December 2014 - 10:30 PM in Misc. Movies and T.V.

 

This scene just got posted on Reddit as main reason why the threats were made. 




#83181 Big Hero 6

Posted by Launch on 17 December 2014 - 09:51 PM in Misc. Movies and T.V.

Never saw the Lego Movie; I thought it looked too silly. I should see if I know anyone who owns it and borrow it. 




#83180 The Interview, pulled because... I DON'T KNOW!

Posted by Launch on 17 December 2014 - 09:50 PM in Misc. Movies and T.V.

Can't say that I'm surprised. When I first saw the commercials my first thoughts were "Isn't this going to piss off a lot of people?". 

 

I wonder how many other shows/movies have been pulled because of things like this? The only other one I can recall is Clone High getting cancelled because Gandhi's portrayal caused protests in India.  




#83163 Pets

Posted by Launch on 17 December 2014 - 06:55 PM in Everything Else

Shit... It was time to trim their nails today. Dahlia suddenly violently squirmed at just the worst moment and I cut too far. I'm always prepared in case this happens, but I feel so guilty... I've never screwed up that bad before. 




#83162 Do you sing in the shower?

Posted by Launch on 17 December 2014 - 06:53 PM in Everything Else

Not really all that often since I'm prone to accidentally managing to get soap in my mouth somehow, I'm more the person who does it when I have a fair amount of chore to do. If it's a slow day, I'll bring some tunes into work since folks seem to like. One guy gets way into songs he knows and belts them out for everyone to head xD

 

The songs I sing just randomly rotate, but a single one that I keep wanting to sing will stay there for awhile. This is the one that's take that slot currently:
