I showed a Jacket to someone online that I had an interest in buying a month or two ago. They said they'd buy it for me as a Christmas present. I argued, because I like buying my own shit, but I lost in the end. I kept nagging about "Hey, should I buy that jacket myself?" and they'd respond insulted with "No!"

Recently, they asked me for the website again because I guess they're finally ready to buy it. I went to look for it to link it, and the jacket I wanted is gone from their site completely. Not even an out-of-stock. It's just gone. I also checked ebay with no luck, and it's kind of a specialty so it wouldn't be on Amazon or anything.

For fucks sake.

Never show anyone anything you like after August.

I wish giving cash wasn't so pointlessly taboo in my family. They feel there's something important about giving physical presents and having something to do on Christmas morning.

Half the time now when I go to google.com, the cursor defaults to the address bar instead of the google search bar. Ffffffffffffffff

So basically you should be using chrome

Yes. Because dismissing someone's complaints about compatibility with "just use the browser made by the same company as the site" has worked out so well for the computer industry in the past.

Hey thad remember when instead of making a joke about browsers I made a serious statement about the morality of using google chrome that you responded to, cleverly destroying my flawed argument and convincing me about the error of my ways?

Mongrel · « **Reply #1907 on:** November 29, 2011, 01:00:05 PM »

I've noticed some other things like this lately... such as hotmail not working properly for some users of Firefox.

I'm glad we can look forward to a bright new era of corporate browser guerrilla warfare.

Anyway, the google thing wouldn't be so damned annoying if it was all the time instead of just SOME times.

It's probably a thing you did to your browser, since it works perfectly for me and always has.

No, but I remember that time you responded to sarcasm with a barely-literate strawman.

You know, that one time.

Well, I've made zero changes in a month or so and am on the latest iteration of FF, sooooooooo...

Works fine for me.

Maybe you have a new extension or an incompatible extension, might want to check that out.

Mongrel · « **Reply #1913 on:** November 29, 2011, 06:37:14 PM »

I haven't installed any new extensions in forever. And if NoScript, Adblock, or the Canadian dictionary (my only extensions) are causing it, well, I'm not gonna uninstall those (obviously the Canadian dictionary is responsible because, you know).

patito · « **Reply #1914 on:** November 29, 2011, 08:57:01 PM »

I'd blame noscript myself, check to see what it's doing.

But maybe the canadian dictionary doesn't want you to use google to find the meaning of canadian words.

I assume you paid close attention to the hosts needed for Hotmail to work properly, and that this isn't you missing something silly like a new domain or introduction of a new CDN or static assets server.

Wait, what does Hotmail have to do with the cursor's default location on Google in Firefox?

Oh wait... do you mean Hotmail not working in FF? That was on Starr's computer, not mine.

Anyway, the cursor thing didn't seem to happen today. Maybe it's been fixed?

Though funny you should bring up Hotmail. I had a pet peeve for them too. Last two weeks, it won't let me open an email (or do ANYTHING), until the messenger sidebar (the one trying to ape gmail's functionality) fully loads. Which seems to take minutes and/or several refreshes before it actually happens. I looked in settings to see if I could tell it to not bother loading messenger but no luck there.

Girl I'm friend of a friends with is pregnant apparently. And is very vocal about it. And believes she's channeling her unborn baby's likes and dislikes through her. And calls it "Li'l Beanie."
So the majority of her statuses and comments are "Li'l Beanie HATES that show," "Li'l Beanie can't stand when people cut you off," "Li'l Beanie loves yoga <3"

Yuck! I hate beans

Geez, I feel sorry for that kid when he gets old enough to have his own likes and dislikes.
