The Settings Reflex

[Calleja]

Gorram it, Halforums.

I've gotten into the habit of clicking on the Settings button you see to your top right, next to My Profile, to easily see a list of all my subscribed threads with new posts. It's a pretty good hub of sorts even if it doesn't show WHO made the last post for some reason (hey, can we do something about that, by the way?)

The routine for me on Halforums has now become.. Settings, check out oldest subscribed thread with new posts, click back on settings, rinse, repeat. When there are no more subscribed threads I then head to What's New.

The problem with this habit is that now I'm finding myself CONSTANTLY clicking on the Settings button... ALL OVER THE FRACKING INTERNET! GMail, Last.fm, Facebook.. whatever. You'd be surprised how many sites have a very similarly-placed link on the top right. It's annoying as hell cause the similarly placed link on all these sites is of NO use, and half the time you find me staring blankly at a settings page I had no intent of visiting.

Please tell me I'm not alone in this?

You're so very, very alone.

 

[ElJuski]

w-what?

 

[Cajungal]

It's you and the maytag man, Calleja. ALONE.

 

[CynicismKills]

Hey, glad I caught you, had this guy on hold awhile. Calling himself One, saying he's the loneliest number. He thinks you might have something in common.

 

[ElJuski]

I really wish I had a flying fuck idea to what you were talking about.

 

[Calleja]

I hate you guys.

Oh, no she didn't! *snap, snap, snap, head swivel* Mm-mm!

 

[Calleja]

....who's the maytag man? aranoid:

Awesome. If I'm ever rich I'm gonna pay someone to do that every time I say something like that.

Calleja, Maytag is a large appliance brand--washing machines, I think--and the joke in the old commercials is that the Maytag repairman is the loneliest man ever, because no one ever needs him.

 

[Calleja]

Awww

 

[ThatNickGuy]

is the loneliest man ever, because no one ever needs him.

Pfft. My Calleja mancrush says otherwise.

 

[Gusto]

As do my many faulty Maytag appliances. :humph:

Everyone of those faults were due to your misuse of the product, not the product itself! :humph:

Aw man. After explaining the joke, I feel bad. You're not a repairman! :waah:

:humph: Keep your Angry Joe. I've been told that few people can pull of a Superman belt buckle as well as I can.

Pfft, it's one of my favorite shirts. Not only cause it's awesome, but it's one of the few t-shirts that make me look GOOD for some reason... it's my (getting)lucky shirt. :biggrin:

Gusto, you're not supposed to put live animals and humans in a washing machine.

It's either one or the other, not both!

 

[Calleja]

but humans ARE animals!

 

[Gusto]

Then how the fuck am I supposed to clean 'em!?

:humph: :humph: :humph:

My name is Humphty, and it's spelled with an -umphty...

 

[ThatNickGuy]

Then how the fuck am I supposed to clean 'em!?

The old fashioned way: a high powered hose!

 

[Silver Jelly]

but humans ARE animals!

THE BIBLE SAYS OTHERWISE.


It says we are lumps of mud.

 

[Calleja]

Men are, at least. Women were created from a rib. No info on whether it had BBQ sauce or not, though.

 

[Silver Jelly]

I don't think God intended ribs not to have barbecue sauce.

 

[MindDetective]

The best ribs I ever had were unsauced. They were basted in a bleu cheese and butter sauce. Oh. Your. God. They were amazing.
