Great.  I just checked the course I'm taking online and I'll probally get dropped tommorow unless I can come to an agreement with the instructor.  I missed multiple assigment which were due Friday, either because I failed to realize they were due Friday, or I thought I had done them.  and there is the one assigment that I am fairly sure I did complete, so unless there was some second part to it then I might be able to use that to scrape by. 
there are also a few other things I'm raging at myself for but I don't feel like listing here.  WHY MUST I DO THESE THINGS TO MYSELF?!

My stupid mother will NOT stop 'helping' me no matter what I say. And when I finally lose my temper, she starts bawling about how she can't believe her son is talking to her like this and how she was just trying to help... I can't do it any more. I cannot deal with this useless, infuriating woman any longer.

[Lightningfalcon]

In what ways is she 'helping' you? She might be genuily tring to help and doesn't realize that it's not helping.  If so then you might want to do the whole heart to heart conversation, since that is supposed to help.  If it was the overly controlling kind of help, on the other hand, then good job on not falling for it.

I've had that h to h conversation a dozen times now. Today, the enrollment for the uni course I'm in opens. After jumping through, crawling under a series of hoops and having them ******* ** ** ****, I found out that I need to go for an hour's drive into the city to clear up something that the idiots at the campus have screwed up. I've had enough, say fuck it, I'll do it tomorrow. My mother then refuses to drop the matter for the next twenty minutes until I have started roaring at her to shut the f*ck up and leave me alone. Sometimes I think she enjoys getting to play the victim.

So, there is new proof that no one any good at design is actually working on the youtube design. Behold.

Downloaded Magic the Gathering: Tactics today.
"You can play the prologue and Chapter 1 for free. The rest can be purchased blah bla-"
ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS SONY!!1!?@!?!
Fuck this world, fucking capitalistic assholes who just want to wipe their asses with your money.
This is even worse than the, "Buy game, pay to get rest of multiplayer maps later".
This is,
"Free game, but you need to pay to enjoy it for more than an hour."
That is just a bullshit F2P model.
This pisses me off.

You do understand they are a company, right? They need to make money from their product somehow. They don't plan on wiping their ass with the profits, they are going to pay wages and pad the pockets of the investors that finance the entire thing.

The free to play model is basically todays version of the demo. They are giving you a sample because they want you to buy the full version so they can make money. That was the plan from the start. If they were going to just give the entire game away, they would have never made it and you wouldn't be able to enjoy even those few hours.

[Sirus]

Max, what heresy are you speaking? Everyone knows that all game developers should sink thousands, if not millions of man-hours into a highly polished amazing game and give it away totally free. To expect anything less is worse than being a Nazi!

I remember the days when people called things the thing they were... demos were demos, full games were full games, and not betas, F2P meant that most of the game was free with maybe one or two things that weren't blocked by price tags...

Kill the heretic!

Fuck you freeware! Fuck you pubic funding projects! Fuck you artistic expression! I'm a capitalist!

I went to an ice cream parlor today and got one of those little spoons with a free taste. But for some reason they refused to give me a loaded cone for free, and they told me to buy something or leave after my eighth sample. What, do they think I'm made out of money?

It is because there are these snots who will actually walk into icecream parlors and have so many free samples that they basically had their fill of icecream.
