They seem pretty concerned with protecting the play experience of their French players first and foremost. It's an attitude I've seen before out of European online game companies. Europeans often feel they get the short end of the stick in online gaming, for a variety of reasons, so maybe it's a response to that.

Personally, I find non-simultaneous updates to be WTF-stupid design.

Or they need time to translate it from French to English...

New glasses came in. Had to send them back. The lenses were not tinted like I paid for.

So after all this time, did you even at least get a photo?

So I saw Tree of Life earlier, there was a sum total of six people in the cinema (the guard popped in a few times for some reason). Two tried to leave after the first thirty minutes, I don't think they could since the doors were locked. But, two rows behind me was this couple, and the guy, was a total and complete fuckfaced shitwitted douchenozzle of an asshole person. I can get you not liking the movie, fine, it's entirely subjective, I don't care, but please, for the love of all that is sacred KEEP IT TO YOURSELF YOU FUCKING FUCKFACE and don't ruin it for the other five people with your assortment of dumb jokes and random noises.

Towards the end he got especially annoying, so much in fact that all I could think of as I left the cinema was turning his head into fine paste with a brick.

And then I find a brick a minute after I walk out of the mall the cinema is located in.

Sometimes I think the universe is taunting me to become a crazed killer maniac, and I'm not sure if I want to play indifferent to the taunts anymore.

[MaximumZero]

No, ser, I did not. I was quite steamed.

Which again, I think is kind of a response to the way American games tend to treat localization. I wouldn't necessarily call that vindictive, if they want to have a regional perspective on their game (It's a FRENCH game, that kinda thing), more power to them. The rules though....does make it seem slightly vindictive.

Wait, what? Where do you live? Because in the US, I think we call that a violation of the fire code. Do they do that to keep people from slipping in?

Oh god this bothers me so much.  The fucking worst is when it's your friends doing this.  I've never gone to a movie with someone who was really loud and obnoxious or anything.  I would chew them out for that.  I have had them start whispering jokes back and forth to each other, start making really exaggerated gestures of impatience, etc.

Honestly, I get really annoyed with anyone who can't just hold off on their criticism until after the movie is fucking over with.  Your opinion is in-fucking-valid if you can't at least wait until it's halfway over with before declaring it the worst thing you've ever seen, and I don't want to know about it.  Pick it apart all you want AFTER IT'S FINISHED, please.

I can't stand being around people that are loud or draw attention to themselves in the first place. So I'd probably be the second or third person to walk out of a movie if someone was being a total asshole....even if they're my friend. Like I don't care how attractive a woman is, if she talks way too loud for the place she's in, deliberately, it's a deal breaker for me.

Irony is not a damn coincidence or unfortunate occurance.
Here's a summary of my rage, except in a different context.

I'm glad that I'm not the only person who gets snippy over the abuse of the word "ironic".

[kaijyuu]

I'm pretty sure I have zero concept of the word "irony."

When people give examples it just seems like amusing coincidences to me.

[MaximumZero]

From what I gather, irony is an amusing coincidence that's highly improbable and the exact opposite of what you'd expect out of the situation.

[nenjin]

I think we need IronyOwl in here, stat.

[MaximumZero]

That would probably be for the best.
