I swear to God I just heard my roommate say she visited a drug dealer. No, I didn't hear anything else. Nor do I want to.

Looking for some stories?

Whose dumb enough to say their dealer is a dealer? Just say he's a friend or something

I just flipped the bird and cursed a movie, specifically the Maze Runner.

GAH!

I'd recommend it, though. It's fun.

I really thought today was October 1st.

Imagine my panic when I checked my bank balance and my pay wasn't there.

My sense of time needs hammered out or something.

A troper is making negative remarks to one of my constructed races (A demigod race with powerful inherent magic and a Made of Magic Guardian Entity that's part of their soul. They have to consume human souls at least once a week to exist).

Surprisingly, I'm actually happy that shes being negative towards them, because calling them monsters/abominations is the intended and inevitable impression of certain humans towards them.

Um..... I don't think hating a fictional race is actually racist.

It's like hating the borg or something

Oh... That's why I changed it to negative instead of racist. Racist is too strong a word. But if you see the "Ask the Next Avatar a Question" thread then you'll know where I'm getting at.

Microsoft's next OS version is Windows 10.

Because, as every child knows, 7 8 9.

And it's bringing back the traditional start menu. And it's a free upgrade for Win 8 users.

It's free?

I am infinitely more interested in this now.

But the number one question on everyones mind is... Is it worth upgrading from 7?

7 runs like a dream, why fix what's not broken?

Inhopelessguy Since: Apr, 2011
#178219: Sep 30th 2014 at 11:50:16 AM

I'm so happy is free.

I'm looking forward to having further integration with my Windows Phone. Although, does this mean the next Windows Phone OS is version 10? Or will it be 8.2? Or OS 9?

[up]From the tech demos I've seen of OS 10, it seems to have that familiarity to Windows 7, but the extra speed and stability boost that Windows 8.1 has. Especially boot times on non-flash hard drives.

8 actually runs quite a bit faster than 7.

And you'll have to upgrade eventually anyway.

For what its worth, I quite like Windows 8. But that's because I have a touchscreen ultrabook.

I remember my old Windows 7 laptop. It took me a good few minutes to boot up. But this PC, Jesus Christ. I just have to blink and then I've already loaded my start screen.

Nah, not 8.

Like, eight is serviceable, and if you get a program that adds the start menu back, it's really nice. But if you already have 7 there's no point.

10 might be worth it, though.

Gates should have just named it Windows X.

If he had the balls he would have done it. He could have turned the normal windows logo diagonal and everything. Made it metallic and stuff.

It would have been amazing.
