That is also a dean complaint right there, TA.  In the two campuses where I have some understanding of finals examinations, they are structured BY THE ADMINISTRATION in such a way so that professors can't assign conflicting schedules.  Hell, the university I got my degree from even let you reschedule a test if you had 3 or more magically line up in the same day.

Yeah, it was a dean complaint.  And a department head complaint.  It was a dean complaint at 11:30 when we were confused about why she wasn't there.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

My first two semesters of programming were with an airhead whose resume included Lotus Notes and that Motorola satellite that crashed.

There was a day, early in my second semester, when I really struggled to get out of bed.  It was early in the morning and there was snow on the ground that I had to bike across campus in.  I mustered the self-control to do it.

Then she showed up ten minutes late and said, "Oh, didn't you guys see the update I made to the website at 10 o'clock last night?  Class is cancelled."

I never attended that class on a non-test day again.

Okay. Before i aquired my fairly large collection of mp3's, I used to listen to radio a lot.

Because I always put all the music I have into a single giant playlist (I like the randomness and sometimes I am pleastly surprised by an odd chance), the collection sometimes becomes stale. it's a closed environment, so I'll never learn about any NEW music that way.

So, in the in the last month or so I started listening to radio again quite a bit. Already the endless commercials, and repetition of songs - and repetition of endless commercials - have put me off. SO MUCH FOR THAT.

It's kind of like how I never watch TV and have not had cable of any kind for over a decade now. Every now and then I wonder if anything good is on TV, and then I see TVs in a shop somewhere, or catch an episode of something at a friend's house and am GRATEFUL that I don't watch TV. Same applies to Marvel DC comics... once in a while I'll flip through an X-book at the shop, out of curiosity and put it right back on the rack, realizing I am NOT MISSING A THING.

But radio would have been nice. I guess I need another year or two to rebuild my tolerance :sadpanda:

Last I checked, Pandora blocks anybody that they can figure out isn't from a US IP.

Well, there's always Last.Fm which is kind of like Pandora but not really.

Also for some reason when Pandora DID work for Canadians (yes, at first it did), it always gave me really wacky choices... not in a good way.

I don't know, maybe they've improved since then, but I've always found that anything that tries to my analyze tastes always fails miserably anyway. Not that I'm 'too good' for that kind of thing, they just... never worked.

I've recently been hit with a severe rash of ROM DELETER'S REMORSE.

As such, I've only got a nearly complete patched FFV, only missing important things like y/n screens and enemy attacks.

I guess this shouldn't count as a pet peeve, because really it's just me bitching about being an idiotface. Then again, I only really mind when I'm the one who's an idiotface. ::(:

You should just play the FFV Advance ROM instead.

Believe it or not guys, I had considered and rejected all of those options. Though I was very close to using that emoticon, Niku.

...wait.  So the problem is you've only been able to find an FF5 ROM with a pre-final version of the patch applied?

Can't you find the Japanese ROM and a current version of the patch and apply it yourself?
