The arrhythmic clickity-clacking accompanied with high-pitched (almost out of human hearing range) squeaking of computer keys, even of a single computer, in computer labs, classrooms, the library etc. drives me insane.
Gah, the refrigerator is making its whistling squeak now. Orange Blossom

Just now - ignorant individuals that expect an HJT fix within an hour or two of posting while others wait for many days.

You misread my post above. I said "within an hour or two of posting."
Now that you've given me the reason to expand, I'll say that all malware forums are inundated with similar posts asking for help. Everyone needs help - and right now - immediately!!! Excuses abound as to why they should be helped first off. Many don't understand, or appreciate the knowledge, training, and continuing study and daily work it takes to accomplish this help. All working here are volunteers and have other lives also. If you can't wait for help - then pay a PRO. My local Tech charges $85 USD per hour for the simple things. And he's inexpensive. //Aside: It's the BC and my response was not directed to any individual. I do such via a PM only. -------------------- |

Yep, at first I thought "Why isn't them BLEEPING BC people helping me out with my BLEEPING problem?!? BLEEP!!"
Now that I look at it, I completely ever regret thinking that. It takes forever. Another thing that bothers me: People who are actually cheeky enough to be rude to other people for trying to help on any forum. Maybe a little thanks now and then?

What annoys me, is when seeking information about a PC problem,you stress you are a beginner,and some Techies come back with such Geek terms,I wouldn't have a clue what the term means.
Also giving instructions,that most beginners wouldn't have a hope of carrying out. EG.Go into the Bios, and do such and such,and go into the Registry, and do such and such. DIR.  Techies do a wonderful job, helping us,just wish sometimes they would give plain English, step by step instructions.

The most annoying thing is when your sitting in class, and students from another class come in to use the computers. Everyone at my school is fascinated by the sound "StickeyKey" makes (pressing shift 5 times). I don't see what the big deal is. Someone will press it and everyone thinks its the funniest thing ever. I'm in high school by the way, not elementary school if you got confused

Computers: Ones with small hard drives
Non computers: having only 8 hours sleep over 3 days (that sums up my weekend >.> ) -------------------- When you don't want to feel, death can seem like a dream. But seeing death, really seeing it, makes dreaming about it ridiculous. Maybe, there's a moment growing up when something peels back...

Lol. That was a classic Firefox April Fool's joke.
But I never watched it before so I thought it was kind of funny :D New one: Conspiring teacers. 'Nough said
