Now THAT is cool (random)

I just accidentally typed in "apple.cm" when trying to go to Apple's website, so then I thought "shit, it's gonna take me to that annoying Comcast page." But it actually ended up redirecting me right to Apple's site! Just a really little thing but that's kinda cool that Apple did it. It also shows that the look at their products from a user-prespective, seeing the mistakes a user might make and implementing fixes into their devices.

A lot of websites do this, .cm is probably a domain that one can buy and set it to send you to the actual website.

I just have to say it, why is it all the new 'uns that seem to insist on making a new topic for every "discovery" they find? It is really not necessary.

This is not trolling. This isn't even Sparta.

Every day I become increasingly more disappointed with the members here. All this mindless dribble isn't even worth my time.

Veg, bro, why do you insist on making a fool of yourself. Your not even trying to blend in right now, your just embarrassing yourself.

The addition of Mumble is giving MGM +1 Excitement attribute.

Also, if a company has enough money to delegate towards adding new URLs to their registered IP address(es) of their computer server(s), then you'll find that it is common to register misspellings in an attempt to circumvent fraudulent web sites from registering similar domains.

But that all assumes that you continue to actually type in the URL into the address bar. Most novice users type web addresses into the search bar, which is a practice I find completely irritating.

Mainly me getting almost-expelled from high school and I just broke up with my girlfriend and me trying to pretend that nothing's wrong.

I can't stand that. My dad actually types in "www.aol.com" into the search bar. Seriously, who even does "www." anymore?!

So yeah, life sucks, just in case you're wondering why.

I really don't want to sound like a giant asshole, but I know for a fact that there is a whole bunch of members here who have it worse off than you, yet manage to post "normally". Of course, you may react to issues differently than others, it just seems to be that being somewhat annoying and placing personal issues as an excuse doesn't really help.

I probably do react differently. Also note that this is high school, with a fusion of hormones, grades, girls, drama, college, life, and basketball, shit really gets fucked.
