Things that piss you off!

In Florida, we call those "mosquitos".  Or just "skeeters" for short.

Well, I call them differently. :)

Nope; itch was the main concern.
Oh, and on-topic: Buffering...

The fact that I have one class at 2pm on Tuesdays.
Just smack dab in the middle of the afternoon.

Funny you'd mentioned that. I have one too on the same day and time, but I skipped it.

I need more information on all my courses this semester to decide what time blocks to reclaim.
Lecture schedules are a mess tomorrow too.

Yeah. Choosing a free slot is a pain when everyone seems to occupy every slot—the worst situation: we'll have to compromise and attend lecturers during the holidays... I really hate that.

[megido-rev.M]

No heres one gives holiday lectures afaik. My problem has to do with lack of alternate attendance sections.

things that pisses me off? My brother

Spotify released a new update where the artist pages have a white background instead of dark grey like every page has been before.
Why does everything have to have such light backgrounds? What about people, like me, who like to have dark backgrounds which are easier on the eyes?

Similar with YouTube, is it not?

That's why I use dark themes from Stylish for ever single website that's light and where someone has made a user style.
...but Spotify isn't a website.

I can't find the tracking number which I was supposed to get by e-mail from CDJapan.

I will assume you did not watch the full video.

The talk was about genetically modifying male mosquitoes to be sterile and sending them out to mate with females to effectively wipe out 90%+ of the populations in areas it's been tested in so far.

Why does everything have to have such light backgrounds? What about people, like me, who like to have dark backgrounds which are easier on the eyes?

Studies have shown that light backgrounds with black or near black text are easier on the eyes. It has to do with the light your eyes take in. When it's a dark background the light is focused in a small area and it's like the text burns into your eyes, sort of like a focused magnifying glass.

However, most studies have shown that dark characters on a light background
are superior to light characters on a dark background (when the refresh rate is
fairly high). For example, Bauer and Cavonius (1980) found that participants
were 26% more accurate in reading text when they read it with dark characters
on a light background.

display units through contrast reversal. In E. Grandjean, E. Vigliani (Eds.),

Reading experience along with halation (the tendency of white
characters or text to "glow" when presented on a black background)
may account for the beneficial influence of negative contrast.

I support this idea wholeheartedly.  I hate those fucking flying bloodsucking bastards.

When there's a lot of watery stuff in sour cream...

When there's a lot of watery stuff in sour cream...

Just stir it up. It's water.

As far as classes go. I hate that there are certain classes I would really like to take, but are offered when I have to be at work, which pays for the classes I do take. Work takes priority, because it earns more than a lot of people with degrees make. I ain't flipping burgers here.

[Tiffanys]

Just stir it up.

I know. That doesn't make me any less annoyed by it.

because it earns more than a lot of people with degrees make.

I've actually read something at some point that said that investing the amount of money into gold that you would otherwise put into a college education would by the time you otherwise would have graduated already be enough for you to buy a house, whereas if you'd spent it on college when you get out you're completely broke and in debt.

I can't actually find the article now, but these are kinda similar...

Thanks for depressing me even more Tiffany.

Glad to help!

Be sure the lid is on tight, and shake it like hell. I do that with yogurt so I can drink it instead of using a spoon.

And people wonder why I am not in favor of providing free college education to anyone who wants it.

When I use sour cream, I usually just pour off that little bit of excess water.
 
As for yogurt, these days I've been buying these yogurt smoothie things that are pretty good.  To me, it's just drinkable yogurt; goes well with my usual lunch of a sandwich, an apple, and a banana.

When the water pressure suddenly drops by 85% on me .
And when an item is DOA.

[Tiffanys]

I either stir it around, dump out the excess water-stuff, or just avoid the excess water-stuff.
