It's gotta be pretty bad, because even I haven't gotten any. And I'm sure I've deserved it for being so right all the time.

Sounds like a few people here need to chill out. Like, sending angry DM’s to people because you’re upset over their posts? WTF?

I don't believe any of these angry DMs are true unless someone posts screenshots.

They're just lovers spats. The PM system is the new BackPage.

And Laughswin, I sent him 2 DMs and not endless infinite ones or profane laced like he’s lying about. The first was a friendly reminder about their quadruple and triple posting style which bothers people and second after they continued was calling them a troll and telling him to go back to Leafs puck.

Anybody else want to come at me and stop your crying cause someone was mean to you? Azure, direswolf ?? Anyone else?

I have about 50 messages currently in my inbox box and have deleted and cleaned out at least double that twice before. It’s a forum feature I use, get over it and try and act like a normal person like most people on here.
Ignoring a poster is also a forum feature, but you haven't seemed to be able to figure out how to use that one. funny that.

If I make an ignorant post, I fully expect to be called out in that thread, then move on. I don't expect a PM rating me on my status as a person on this site.
As you're the only person to ever do that, it stood out.

Laughswin would have been more clever if jayswin’s user name was leafswin.

That’s all I got.

Imagine PM'ing someone informing them what you think of their posting style.

#### PMs. You know what’s worse?

The message inbox 10 minutes after listing a cheap ass car for sale.

Listen mother####ers, if a vehicle is being sold for one months gross salary, it’s a take it or leave it proposition. I don’t care about your family’s circumstances or your concerns about marks on the hood or what your aunties cake recipe says for maintenance.

Are you wanting to buy the car, or not? 10000 inquiries in 2 minutes, and y’all want torque values from the last time it had its superconductors aligned to mercury’s travels.

Hmmm. I may be interested in that. When was the last time the superconductor was aligned to mercury's travels? I like that a lot. Will you take half of one month's salary in cash? And do you deliver?

My gear grinder today is my bank. I had to open an account about 6 months ago because a deposit was imminent. I open it online and everything is fine. The deposit (USD) didn't happen, and is now...and they've closed the account. Can we reopen it? No. I can book an appointment with a guy to open a new one. Once I do that, I have to manually deposit the cheque...which they then hold for 15 days. I'm not in a rush for the money, but this is so ridiculous. First of all, they closed the account without telling me, which is just annoying. But they have no way to reopen them? And my only option is wasting some poor guys time saying no to all the add-ons he has to ask me about? Just so dumb.

And as if they need to hold this for 15 days. I know this is where they make their money, but I'm sure I'll also be paying a fee for all of this convenience. I can't wait for the banks to be disrupted.

Banking is insane. Its like they're operating as though its still 1992.

When did Best Buy start pulling the Canadian Tire style, "IT'S ON DEEP DISCOUNT" by artificially bumping up the normal price, scam?

https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product...-card/14762887

Look, it's only $50, regular $150! What a deal!

https://www.amazon.ca/SanDisk-256GB-...s%2C148&sr=8-6

... It's $35, regular $40.

What is this garbage?

There are a few differences on those product numbers: C10 vs V10 and SDSQUA4-256G-GN6MN vs SDSQUB3-256G-CB6IA

They're probably darn similar, but maybe not identical? Or maybe it's just special SKUs like happens with Walmart to avoid price matching...

I ate his soul, and he now lives through me.

Actually, put in a fake email when I signed up. When they changed the security, I could not change my email. Messages to the mods for help have gone unanswered nigh on 1.5 years now?

I thought setting up an obvious twin account would get their attention. Nyet.

Now I am Titan2.
