stupid first world achievements and successes

I bought a reduced 1 year subscription from a (legit) site to extend my Playstation Plus subscription. The code was sent by email (you click a link to generate it on the site), so I wrote it down to input it on the PS4 later. I happened to be near my mail but not near that bit of paper later that day, so generated the code from the email link again - but I recognised it was different to the code I had written previously. Tracked down the scrap of paper with the first code, then tried redeeming both... which worked.

tl;dr - I paid for 1 year of PS+ subscription, ended up with 2 year's worth instead, for no additional cost.

I would let you know if I thought it was a dead cert to work, but a friend purchased the 1 year sub to try it as well and they kept getting the same code whenever they hit the generate code link... so I think it was just a random blip that I got lucky with.

i saw an asian guy walking down the street with a limp and the very first thought in my head was "he must have been injured in a martial arts accident."

How is that an achievement or success?

The thread is not called 'stupid racist stereotyping thoughts in your day to day life'

EDIT - @StephenG - Congrats on not drinking, I've never battled the bottle, but my family has a really, really rough history with drinking, cirrhosis, being Irish, and the like. You're too bright of a lad to be brought down by the devil-juice. - <3 Audioblysk

lol it's a joke mate

lol. I made the cheeky-cunt face ( ) so your joke was responded to with a joke. I laughed. Just trollin' ur vibe

Finally figured out how to stop my shitty laptop from overheating.

Madame they sell laptop fan desks you know, they're really cheap. Got this one for 10€:

That does not look very ergonomic

It works, why would I buy an alternative? Illogical.

why not just hold your laptop out of the window into the wind?

=S

^ go bigger. build a cooling superstructure the size of the Large Hardon Collider.

I successfully created my own PD patch without tutorials :^)

A simple but effective random sample player.

toshiba satelite, don't they all???

did you notice that they sell musical instruments now. i went in there looking for a mouse pad cause the desk i've bought for my bedroom has a surface that the mouse doesn't like, looks nice though ;-p. jb didn't have one. Anyway, they had like 300 buck no name chinese electric guitar on the wall as well as keyboards and even marshall amps. I was a little shocked. Well not as shocked as i still am at seeing containers filled with vinyl, if you need to buy the clash on vinyl on 2014, there's something seriously wrong with you, and you've completely caved to a pointless fashion crisis. It's just a way to value add the data contained on it, 'sure, i'll pay up to 20 bucks more than the download, i'm a fucking donkey fucking mongtard, here take my money'.

get away get away

/shoos away rich person

just got an email with an invoice, which i almost deleted thinking it was spam. turns out its an invoice for a magazine article i wrote almost a year ago now, but which just got published a couple months back. at first i was told by the editor i would get paid when he requested/suggested i write it, but nothing else was said so i assumed there was no pay. but i figured even if i did get paid it'd be like 50$ or something at most. and mainly i just thought it was pretty cool that i could say i was published in a (well known) mag, which i kinda accepted as good enough.

then bam! suprise money (along with apology for lateness)! lets just say it was a niiice little chunk of moolah. easily enough to make the decision about that microbrute i was on the fence about getting... although now im wondering if i should get the ms20 mini instead... OR BOTH

AND that was only for the first part! (its a two part article)

sweeeeet
