    God, isn't it so annoying when you've just watched all the ads during your favourite TV programme and then remembered you could have fast forwarded through them because you'd recorded it on Sky+.

    Grrr.

    Yeah, life sucks constantly and continuously. Whenever I get down about life I cheer myself up by reminding myself that I will die someday. So you see, it will end at some point. There's always a rainbow.

    YouTube decides to stop so it can load the video even though the fùckin' grey bar is 2 miles ahead of it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,646 ✭✭✭✭Sauve


    Youtube buffering is like the poster boy for ADD these days. State of it :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    Or YouTube stopping a video half way through it to play an ad and afterwards reset the video

    The banality of life? Really?

    I find having to tie a loosened shoelace gives me extreme feelings of existential nihilism.

    Ye gods no. First sign of a bad pasta!

    Pasta sauce should be slow cooked for flavour!

    Come home starving, put a really tasty meal in the oven after a long day, 40 mins later you're salivating, anticipating the first delicious forkfull. Yep, cooker was never on.

    Or when you see one of your mates on a bus and you spend ages waving at them but they don't see you.

    Is it just me or have flash videos taken to pausing the download when you press pause?

    Yup, saving on bandwidth.

    most people skip around videos. no point in streaming them a load of content they're not going to watch.
