Every girl that I seem to like in any way (infatuation or not) eventually develops a hatred towards me.

Oh, and this guy who's working on my Steinberger said I'd be able to pick it up by yesterday afternoon and that'd he'd call me when it was ready. Then he said it'd be ready by this morning. It's 2:20 PM right now and he hasn't even called.

The keyboard on my Mac lappy is slightly warm right now because I'm watching SC2 streams, and this is making typing this post slightly uncomfortable.

i had to reset my router and was without internet for a solid couple of minutes

Bah! My internet drops out at least five times a day and I have to drag my ass all the way downstairs to reset the modem.

Also, my laptop isn't an incredibly powerful gaming PC, which is something I desperately need right now. LOOK AT ALL THE ITALICS IN THIS POST!

Now, I've got to go eat breakfast. Probably going to be some shitty cereal.

You both consider getting a new modem? Had similar issues and got to the point where I couldn't stay signed on for more than 2 minutes at a time. Bought a new router and all is well now.

I did. The old modem and the one before it did it as well. I have tried looking in every nook and cranny (both physically and virtually) I can think of to figure out what the fucking problem is, but no dice. Resets, changes, etc, none of it works. So I've come to the conclusion that it's either on AT&T's end or there's somewhere I haven't looked.

This thread makes me sick. Some of us actually have real problems like, for instance, I don't have a proper mic for my pc so I'm forced to use my built-in webcam mic and it sounds like shit.

YEAH WELL MY MOUSE WHEEL KIND OF STICKS RIGHT NOW

I almost spat Milo all over my monitor.

I've been meaning to sell one of my guitars, but I can't really be bothered so it's just sitting in my closet taking up space.

I was making some Flapjacks because I was bored & after pouring almost all the ingredients into the pan, melting them down the butter, sugar & syrup, I went to add the oats & realised I'd only about half the required amount. So my flapjacks when they come out of the oven in 10 minutes are probably going to be far too sweet & kinda soggy. TERRIBLE

Who makes pancakes in an oven with oats???

Those of us from western Europe

I also had hand problems for about two weeks recently. Couldn't game :( Sucked.

Now my main first world problem is not being able to afford a 7970 or 680 to play BF3 in Ultra 4xAA 60 FPS, so I have to settle for 50-60 on High.

Mind: Blown.

Okay there's my new first world problem, Europeans need to start calling them muesli bars, cause that's TOTALLY NOT OKAY.

I'm actually more surprised I've never heard of this before. Guess I never leave mainland Europe when I visit though. Also I don't eat oats very often.

Did they turn out like shit in the end, or were they edible?

Well not right now, but about 30 minutes ago I was taking a shower and didn't know that the washing machine was on. So I had about 10 minutes under ice cold water. That sucked. Those children in Africa don't know the pain of a cold shower.

Eh, it's edible, but not the nicest. Not crunchy enough, a little too moist. Could have done with some hazelnuts & pecans in there for texture, or maybe choc chips.

And well, I say Europe, I'm British. And we invented this language & so obviously use it better than you colonials ;-)

I did tech support for an ISP, and in situations that you are describing we would be setting up a dispatch for a tech to come out and run some tests on the line that would be able to better rule out an Internal Wiring issue better then what you could do on your own. You should also give them a call to run tests on the phone lines themselves to rule out the possibility that it's a short in the phone line outside of your place and not an Internal wiring problem. This is of course assuming you have already tried replacing the modem, which you said you did. Make sure that you are changing the Ethernet cables and that you are not using the old ones when you try different modems. Also, make sure that the phone cord that goes from the wall to the back of your modem isn't longer then 6 feet. If it's any longer it degrades the signal and it can cause problems that you are describing.

If all of that still doesn't fix the problem, then it could be a problem with your network card. If that still doesn't fix the problem, then I have no idea. Let me take down your name and phone number and we will have a Supervisor call you back as soon as one is available. If you wouldn't mind waiting on hold for a moment while I get this set up for... Eh... call centre flashbacks. Sorry.

I stink because I never got around to showering yesterday because I had to get back to normal after partying all friday.

And right now I don't want to go up a set of stairs to get to the shower because I'm watching Penn & Teller shows.
