People that change plans of things like 30 times and assure you that each iteration is "the last change".

God damn it.

I also hate it when, after you propose a plan, they reply with "maybe."

Having small things sap away chunks of my time.

And the fact that I don't get this Monday off.

It's a Christian holiday, doesn't the world stop or something?

Joking, I technically get it off too, but that's lol because I'm in school. Who actually gets days off in school?

Nah, it's a Christian and secular holiday. A family get together where you eat lotsa chocolate doesn't have anything to do with Jesus. It's about, fun, family, and money. My family celebrate it even though we are almost all atheists.
Don't just assume that you are right. Verify with the best tools available and if you are wrong, change your mind and you will become right.

I celebrate it because I like days off.

Nothing wrong with it being that, I mean, who doesn't like to eat good food, spend time with family, and think about using chocolate for some other desert ?

Goddamn, because of my sudden massive headache I forgot to obtain some chocolate, so I'll have to settle on cheddar biscuits instead.

That I said this without realising why everyone was laughing:
"Jag tog geväret och sprutade den vita geggan överallt. Jag sprutade den verkligen överallt. Jag täckte alla väggar bara för att jag hade tråkigt. Hela banan blev vit av geggan."

English translation:
"I took the gun and squirted the white goo everywhere. I sprayed it really everywhere. I covered all the walls just because I was bored. The whole course was white of the goo."

Buchno you're so mature.

I really should get around to playing that game. I played Portal 1. It was fun.


Anyways, my Polish Chem prof, she's just a complete asshat.

I'm gunna leave you anyway.

Yeah, I remember that one (relevant to one of the stages, and it was hilarious :laugh:).

Trying to burn a film to DVD. It's just a simple bloody mkv file, it should only take a few clicks then wait a few hours for it to re-encode. But I've been at it literally all day, and all of last night, and I still can't get the bloody thing to work. Even though I'm having to manually demux videos, compile DVD-compliant mpg files, assemble it into a DVD and burn it, it still shouldn't be this fucking difficult! It's really pissing me off.

So far I've wasted 5 DVDs, and hours of my life, and I'm no closer to getting it to work properly :(

Obviously you're doing it wrong, i use nero Vision for it, it re-encodes and assembles movies into DVD format (all files and folders) and I can safely burn it on DVDs.

The trouble is the subtitles, I think. It kept only burning the first 1:55 of the film to disc, which coincidentally also happens to be the point where the first dialogue appears. But when I tried to mux the subs in manually - using the exact same program DVD FLick (which is the DVD authoring software I've been using for years) uses - they work perfectly. It just breaks somewhere else instead.

At one point I got it working, only to find that the size was a couple of hundred megabytes larger than it should have been, and it wouldn't fit on the disc. So I re-encoded the audio at a smaller bitrate, then when I went to make the DVD again, it no longer worked. At all.

Now I've reached the point of putting a fresh install of DVD Flick (which is what I usually use) on a virtual machine, and trying again there from scratch. Hopefully it'll finally work.

Do you even test your creations with PC DVD playing software ?
Problem with subs crashing is their format, it doesn't always work for me so I usually either burn dubbed or translated with a guy reading. I rarely burn movies for myself anyways.

The thing I hate most is waking up after a bad sleep and then realizing that you have to take on all the daily bullshit with this little energy and those red eyes, gaaaah. Wish I could skip those days :/
