You Are Educated, Now Act that Way

June 16th, 2009 4:30am Portfolioso No comments

I was about to go to bed since I need to get back on normal time, but became enraged when I was browsing through a certain social media website and saw someone typing LYk dIsSSS oMGGggggg!!!!!1 What enraged me more was that the person was a well educated, college graduate. Yes folks, this is the type of trash that is getting hired. I ranted about this back in 2005. While reviewing that post, I realized that I was talking about high school girls st the time. Yes, it still makes you look dumb, but looking back, I can cut them some slack. The moment I saw a college grad do that, my blood boiled at our ignorant society and utter stupidity.

Years ago, I wrote a program that does that to a computer. It spams the capslock key on and off so that the typing lOoKS LIkE tHIs. It is a prank and is designed to piss people off. By no means is this supposed to be used for any other purpose and the fact that people go out of their way to do this is sickening.

Apparently, people go out of their way to do this. Does it make you cooler? Please comment and let me know what the purpose of this is. Enlighten me. The only thing I can think of is that it makes you look like a fucking dumbass, so stop doing it. I hope your future employers read it it and not hire you due to your flagrant stupidity and feeble grasp of the English language.

Generic Laptop Rant #324

June 13th, 2009 6:27am Portfolioso No comments

I hate my laptop. It’s old, slow and has a bunch of quirks that are pissing me off. It’s hanging in there, but it’s on its way out. I refuse to get a new one until Windows 7 is out, plus I don’t really feel like spending money right now (bad economy, I cut spending like everyone else). The latest annoyance? Severe overheating. That’s right. Anytime, the CPU is at 100% for about 5 minutes or more, or the fan is slightly blocked – BOOM, power down. This is becoming very frequent during high CPU tasks such as video encoding/ playback, photo editing, Google Earth, etc.

I’m kind of scared, because this happened to someone else with my exact model. It started slowly, but eventually wouldn’t stay on past a few seconds. So who knows when this thing will kick? I can tell you one thing though. It’s annoying as hell to be in the middle of something and then it just powers down. Fuckin’ stop that shit. Bitch ass trick.

I Love this Blog

June 11th, 2009 6:09am Portfolioso No comments

If you are reading this from the front page of portfolioso.com, you should leave and click on the link to my blog. Have I mentioned how much I love this blog lately? I just upgraded this badass to WordPress 2.8 instead of going to bed. WordPress is the most amazing thing ever (well not really, but when it comes to blogging engines, probably). The iNove theme is amazing and it’s so purrrdy. The WordPress admin interface is so ballin’ I just can’t stay out of it (that’s what he said). In addition, it is organized so nicely that I can’t help but read my archived posts from way back. If you haven’t played around with the search, categories, tags, archives or any other feature on this blog, I suggest you do, because it is amazing and user friendly. Plus, you can learn a lot about me by reading my old stupidity (and see how much of an immature kid I was back in freshman year of high school). The only things lacking now are consistent updates that actually interest people. But now that the interface is so awesome, what more motivation do I need to keep blogging away?

Shameless plug…
