    Re: New TV in ##hours ##min

    After that fiasco with this other guy and his Region issue - I don't even care. I'm actually going to gank my own thread and rant some more about this because at this point - what I'm saying doesn't even belong in the developer section of the forums.

    The guy just came over and is like - did you look at kb 917452? Which is the same kb I sent to him a month ago about his IDE being slow and I didn't bring it back up to him today because it said nothing about a #Region issue being resolved and I knew he would just toss it aside. Not only that - I stood in his cubicle as he accused me of using this "bad coding practice," and told I him that a hotfix might have fixed whatever issue he thinks he's having since then. He chuckled and told me "I'm not having this arguement with you."

    20 minutes later, only 20 minutes... He's in my cube, the kb I sent him in his hand (not in the original email of course), asking me if I have it installed as if I'm the one who's having the issue.

    The guy's a freaking contractor too. The way he acts, you'd think he was my boss or project lead or something.

    Tell him to go fly a kite. Since hes a contractor you could always suggest to your boss (assuming his boss too) that hes disrupting the office with his childish inadequancies and that you guys are wasting good money on him and to get another contractor to replace him

    Oh yes, and please stay on topic

    Re: New TV in ##hours ##min

    Back on topic (for me anyway) - I got the tv set up. It looks nice and I'm ready to start hunting for a copy of bioshock. My tv reception isn't great, but then again... I have a gold plated monster coaxil cable running from my wall jack to my power supply. I just also have an old cable from 1986 running from the supply to the tv.

    Allow me to correct you:

    Bah, you're just jealous that you don't have to replace the light in your television every 8 years.

    No. It is just that you spam each and every thread with your appalling nonsense.

    And yes, there was a spelling mistake in that post too.
