  • You said I needed meds, I say you don’t have a working short term memory…maybe we’re both wrong, maybe just you’re wrong, but I’m ok with those odds.

    It sounds like your entire argument is that you organize open tabs using alternative tools to people who use tabs. You use a bookmark, I leave the tab open. You seemingly only shop for things in one store (if you can leave it in the cart), I do not.

    Leaving all that open is obviously not making your computer sad. That reflects a misunderstanding of how computers work. Does Firefox take 10 gb of ram if you let it? Of course. But thankfully there’s tab sleeping…it’s like a bookmark except the tab is still there.

    It’s not a coping mechanism for adhd. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were some correlation but I can’t even think of what part of adhd this is supposed to be coping for.

    I don’t think you’re normal, the majority of the people I know both in work and life have more than 5 tabs open.


  • Oh I agree about what should happen, but your argument is that if people don’t ack you then you’ll stop doing it.

    Personally I find if the person behind me isn’t even looking up to see where they’re going then I just let the door close. I’m not shutting it in their face, I’m just treating them the way they like to be treated. But that’s different from being petty and undoing the kindness – ie slamming it in their face.


  • Oh I see. I go for the approach of just never ever acknowledging the existence of other people in the store so I don’t give a fuck about how they feel about my belt loading. Since 90% of people kinda suck it doesn’t bother me that much. At worst I’m pissing off maybe 5 non-shitty-humans per year.



  • I cannot comprehend the idea of someone whose attention span doesn’t last longer than taking a piss and who has a visceral reaction to a computer-rendered filling cabinet analogy telling me I need meds.

    I have sets of things in working on over time. Some windows are for misc stuff, some have game info, some have things I’m looking at buying but haven’t yet, etc. Why would I want to do the work of finding those pages again rather than letting the computer do what it’s designed to do and save to disk.


  • I agreed with you 100% up to the end.

    There are few things in driving more irritating than some asshole coasting at 10 mph to a light when you want to turn before the light. You should accelerate and drive at a normal speed between red lights if there are other humans around you because you are not the main character. You don’t need to floor it but you should still drive to the light. I also experience this regularly as a pedestrian…either fucking stop and let me jaywalk or fucking go and let me jaywalk, coasting fucks over everyone around you.

    Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.
