Captchas on YouTube...?

The fuck? Are there a group of people at google just thinking of ways to make youtube more annoying for me? On a related note, NO youtube, I do not want to use my real name and I do NOT want a google plus account and no you will not get my mobile phone number. And especially no, PLEASE oh fuck PLEASE do not suggest pewdiepie videos to me ever again youtube.
Captchas have been around for years on Youtube, unless something has changed they only trigger if you post several comments in a short time frame.

I don't post comments. I have posted I think two comments total on the whole time I have been registered. I get the captcha every time I go to youtube now. I get it even when I am not logged in so it sure as hell has nothing to do with comments.

Weird. That sounds more like an error than anything else.

An MMO actually called canon to a previous game? This is new to me.

So, I bought a house a month ago.  I moved in a week ago.  I'm seeing cockroaches.

This was to be expected, I suppose.  The apartment I moved out of was infested with the little things.  In fact, I'm convinced I'd discovered a source of infinite energy there in the form of burning cockroach corpses.  No matter how many I killed, there were never any fewer.  The only number you can subtract from and keep getting it is infinity, so thus there were an infinite number of cockroaches there.

Fine.  Whatever.  I moved out.  Goodbye cockroaches.

Well, I knew better, really.  I knew that some would come with me.  I took as many precautions as I could.  I fogged the apartment before removing anything.  I checked everything thoroughly before bringing it inside.  I even disassembled as much stuff as I could to remove a few roaches before bringing it inside.

Didn't matter.

I'm still seeing about five a day.  From nymphs to adults (so far only one female with an ootheca at least).  Same deal as before: no matter how many I kill, there's no less of them.  I've put out baits and growth regulators, but I know it's not going to make a difference.  I'm spraying the ones I see and have started putting out boric acid.  But I know it's not going to make any difference.

I'm pretty skeptical that an exterminator would make any difference.

Am I going to have to burn the house down to kill them all?

I am not going back to hiding everything in the refrigerator to keep it away from the roaches.  I swear I'll burn this house down before I go back to that.

Not much of a rage, more of a general annoyance.

A celebrity does something. Suddenly! It's all over the internet.
Why I am annoyed? I was minding my own business, browsing imgur or wahtever, when I am interrupted by images of said celebrity doing something.
I just wanted to see pictures of cats and funny stuff! D:

The 4 Rivers plan, consisting of dredging rivers and constructing miniature dams and many full-scale ones, was created and executed by the previous government. It's creating disaster in the ecosystem. An unfortunate heat wave caused the rivers to heat up and cause explosive algae growth,which was worsened because the 4 Rivers plan stagnated the flow of water.
Another case is where a previously lush riverbank was overturned and now looks like a kid played in the sand near a beach, digging ditches which are filled with water. I think the worse part is the terribly stupid former president Lee spent billions of won on this half-assed project on false premises, with biased research and experts' opinions.

Incidentally, there is definite proof that the CIA of Korea illegally influenced the recent election,having 70 of its workers post replies on internet discussion forums and news articles. Of course, they deny it. According to them... actually, I don't even know what their excuses are anymore. They keep changing it~

Korea might have better healthcare than the US, but its politics stink worse than the worst of anything the US can ever dream of.

So, I got an interview for a job I really want (27 to 30k starting? FUCK TO THE YES, BITCHES).

Bad news: it is 2 hours away from where I live and I was scheduled tomorrow during a 9 to 5 shift. I called up work and tried to get a shift change with the other Garden guy.  He refused to swap, but he took my hours instead. So yeah. Thanks for that, Brosef Stalin. It's not like I go out of my way to ask for more hours at work or anything. EXCEPT OH WAIT, I DO AND YOU FUCKIN WELL KNOW IT.

I take a small amount of vindictive comfort in the knowledge that customers have gone out of their way to tell me "how clean and organized the place is now that [I'm] here, and it's a really big difference" while you (referred to as "the other guy") just "sit around on your ass all day."

Freaking customer. This guy has been wrong about 50 to 60% of the time he calls us. Wrong about what's wrong, wrong in how he's doing things, just wrong. And while nice, he's Southern Nice. I.e. he sounds conversational but what he's doing is very nicely telling you this is your fault and waiting for you to go "Yes sir!"

Well, fuck that. The problem he called in with yesterday is the exact same problem he's called in with before. Rather than listening to the things we've said to him, about how to do his job, how to use the program.....nah, instead he'd rather mash the wrong key, ignore me when I tell him he's doing it wrong, blame us for 3rd party integration issues that no other customers have taken issue with.....

I mean, I like helping people. I want to help people. But all our advice and effort (we wrote an entire fucking wiki article for this guy to help him do his job. Has he fucking read it? NO!) falls on deaf ears, and then he comes back with "I'm paying for this software......"

Yes. You are. Unfortunately, your payment does not absolve you from fucking listening to the people you ask for help. It doesn't magically mean what you want happens. It doesn't mean I'm going to do your goddamn job for you, or that I'm going to waste inordinate amounts of time helping you on the same problems you still, time and again, refuse to listen to the solutions for. I hate losing customers. But I hate having bad customers even more. In truth what he's paying for is updates and technical support. And if he's just going to waste our time and his, he might as well just stop paying his support fee.

not a rage for me, but for another person in my life, basicly they had to submit a forum online, this took several hours to submit.  oh, and apparently the IT department behind this says that it is a issue with not using the latest OS... yea.
