Fuck Reddit

 Why is Reddit such a joke? All the admins do is protect incompetent, petty mods who perma-ban without warning or explanation whatsoever. Providing an explanation for a fucking perma-ban should be standard protocol by now. Anything less is fucking lazy. Plain and simple. The assholes let ANYONE run and staff subs with no oversight. You say one wrong thing on some subs, sometimes literally a nothing harmless comment and you can be perma-banned with ZERO recourse other than making a new account. If they catch the new account, THEN the admins ban both. Yet, they wouldn't do shit about your unfair subreddit ban in the first fucking place.

My entire Reddit account has been temp banned several times and now permabanned over simple discussions with oversensitive mods. Where the fuck do they get off humoring these oversensitive fucking babies that are too stupid to just use Mute/Block and move the fuck on!? One asshole gets to run like 200 subreddits and be hated by half the site. But reply to a mod message with a mean response and get banned. Fuck you. I've been getting account banned and IP banned on the internet for 20 fucking years, and I still post wherever I goddamn please.

Responding to an automated subreddit ban message with a simple "Go fuck yourself" is NOT harassment. Big difference between replying to an automated modmail from some powertriping asshole and harassing someone directly on their private account. All they have to do to end the conversation is mute the person. Stupid motherfuckers!

I was literally banned today for making a SUGGESTION through modmail. Look at this shit!

Another recent ban happened on the hometheater sub. Dickhead banned me, started talking shit and refused to give an explanation. Finally stated the actual rule supposedly broken and muted me at the same time. Claiming piracy. I asked for recommendations on a media player box. They're legit consumer electronics. Even nVidia fucking makes one! Never once mentioned fucking piracy. I even replied to someone about my legitimate use for them. I own 1000s of movies and shows on disc in multiple formats, and having rips makes TV shows easier to binge, especially when the assholes make discs without a "Play All" option.

Another time, I received a perma-ban from /r/news. Again, ZERO warning or temp bans. ZERO actual communication. Just an automated message saying perma-banned. So I reply "Go fuck yourself. Explanations should be standard instead of automated messages. Lazy cunts." Obviously not the most mature response, but this lazy, petty shit is getting old. I get ANOTHER automated message, this time from /u/reddit about fucking harassment? Are you shitting me!? I REPLIED to an automated MODMail. I did NOT DM the fucking mod directly, but that's what reddit is trying to imply. As if they can't just mute/block me anyway. No, report me to the admins for being pissy about my ban instead of just muting me like the fucking babies normally do. SERIOUSLY? These are the kind of people who get to be mods? Clean up your fucking house, or stay the hell out of it when people evade ridiculous subreddit moderations. PICK ONE.  

p.s. There should be a profile option to NEVER hide comments. Fucking annoying always having to click to expand comments cause they're unpopular/whatever.

Fuck "Normal"

 I'm NOT "normal." I never have been, and I never will be. I've been sitting in this room for 19 years now. Last time I worked was sometime in March 2003. I tried college before that. Quit because I wasn't learning anything useful. I refused to memorize useless info about the AT&T monopoly when I was supposed to be learning how to setup computer networks. I never had any real direction. I just always wanted someone to love. That hasn't happened, at least not in the expected way. Everyone else prioritizes careers and education so much nowadays it makes me sick. Should have nothing to do with love, but I'm basically undateable because I don't work, don't drive, and live with my parents. I sit here, binge watching the same dozen or so TV shows and maybe find a videogame worth playing once in a blue moon. I basically gave up. Never had many friends. Don't have any that are local anymore. I was always socially awkward. After a certain point, I just had no use for people. The one friend who truly means anything to me is like 500 miles away.

My family is a total shit show. Never much cared about any of them. Haven't even been to a funeral in 10 or 12 years now. We don't have contact with any of them now that my mother's siblings are fighting over my grandfather's estate, after knowingly exposing him to covid in the first place and stealing a ton of shit from the house. So it's just my parents, and I don't give a shit about them. I'm literally sitting here waiting for the fuckers to die. My mother is a paranoid, overprotective cunt, and my father is just an asshole. Think I'm exaggerating? When he was raising chinchillas back in the 90s, I got to the point where I said they were his fucking animals and I wasn't doing his bullshit chores anymore; he threatened to shoot my dog, and he fucking would have. I haven't claimed ownership of any pet around here since and have also maintained zero responsibility for taking care of them. My mother? I don't even know where to begin. Took me until I was almost 33 to find a first date, and that one dumped me after 2 months because she couldn't stand my mother. It was winter time and the bitch always kept me from driving anytime it snowed. Psycho will threaten to disown me or have me committed anytime I try to go against her. Like I said, I've given up. SSI isn't enough to live on my own, and it's not worth it being alone anyway. I sit here waiting for the cunt to drop dead, so I can have my inheritance.

Fuck Vegas

 Sin City? Sounds more like Shit City to me now. Vegas always looked so cool and different, but that doesn't seem the case anymore. One of the only places in the country still enforcing mask mandates. It's always been portrayed as a city that never sleeps, but now a lot of places have shorter hours. How long has prostitution been legal in Nevada? Still not legal in Vegas though (Clark County). FUCKING WHY? and why doesn't anyone fight that in the courts? It's the same basic women's rights argument that keeps abortion legal. "Women have the right to do what they want with their bodies." Obviously, that should include selling access to the fun parts. RIGHT? Why isn't anyone even lobbying to lower the gambling/drinking age out there all these years? Either you're an adult at 18 or you're not. You'd think they'd be all over that shit by now, especially after the hit the casinos took with lockdowns etc. Don't say it's a federal law, so is weed, and states are taking it upon themselves to legalize that (which I totally agree with).

Fuck Linux

 I swear the distro developers just want to make it useless on purpose. I always run LTS distros (Kubuntu, Ubuntu, etc). I'm getting really fucking tired of finding out about an app I need, running apt-get to install it, and the fucking thing finds the app BUT installs a version from like 2 fucking years ago! WTF!?!? "Long term support" apparently doesn't include updating the motherfucking repository. Cunts. Call me crazy, but when I try to install a new app, I expect to get the most recent fucking version of it without jumping through hoops. Otherwise, apt-get is completely worthless to me.

Fuck Software Developers

 I used to write software. Some of the shit I wrote was rather complex too. Grabbing RAM from console emulators to compare, hex edit, and make gameshark codes back in the day, etc. Wrote a MIPS assembler/disassembler too. Did a little save editing in the 360 era but hated trying to crack checksums. I even used a library someone made to adapt my gameshark tool to straight up PS2 hacking via the broadband adapter. Everything I wrote, I did with ANSI C and Win32 API calls. Not totally platform independent, but not riddled with dependencies like shit is now. All my programs ran on any version of windows without needing any bullshit extra frameworks, libraries etc as well as running under Wine on linux.

Software nowadays is written by assholes who can't really code. Everything is dependencies on top of dependencies, and it's ridiculous. Nothing is a self-contained app anymore on Windows or linux. Every time I need to install a new app, I'm stuck figuring out how to install something else it depends on in linux or updating some bullshit framework on Windows. It's disgusting. I'd probably still be running Ubuntu 10.04 if Chrome and FF browsers weren't all cunty about dependencies and were compiled as compeltely self-contained apps like they should be. I still remember when Firefox was new and it was like 6MB. That's how far back I go. I started with Windows 3.1 and DOS. Win 2K/XP were my bread and butter, and many others refused to give them up. I made peace with Win7, but I've mostly been running linux the past 10 years. Refuse to run Win10.

An example for you, I downloaded the linux (debian) version of a relatively simple app called SaveWizard yesterday. Naturally, it wouldn't install because of bullshit unmet dependencies. It wanted some shit called "mono-complete." WTF is that??? So I try apt-get install the shit, but that's not good enough. It says it needs a newer version, so I have to Google the fucking thing to find out how to add the official repository, then install it. Then I can finally install the app I wanted. If they didn't code like assholes, the Windows version would run in Wine like the software I used to write.

Fuck Investment Bullshit

Seriously. Nobody is ever content just making money. Everyone has to complicate shit. Put it in the fucking bank and be happy. Fuck your Roth IRA, 401k, stocks, bonds, etc. Stop letting people fuck around with the money you earn. Just take it and save or spend. "Oh, but 401k defers taxes." Do you think the tax rate in 20 years will be lower or higher, asshole? You might as well pay it now and get it the fuck over with. Fuck fucking Wall Street too. It's one big circle jerk where the people with too much fucking money dick around with the economy. Shouldn't even be legal. Normal people should NOT be fucking around on the stock market or having to worry about the banks failing because of it.

Look at all these clowns using bots and running their asses off to get PS5s and Xboxes to scalp then selling them for a measly $100 over what they paid. Seriously. Be happy you have the $500 to buy one instead of doing all that shit just to get a little bit more. I'm literally more annoyed at the people who sell them for 100 or so above MSRP than the people trying to get $1000 for them. It's just a waste. I let my PS5 sit here for a while before opening it to see how high local prices would go on FB marketplace, but people kept listing them for $650-700 (after paying $530 including tax), so I didn't consider that worth the effort or worth waiting until after the holidays to get another one when they restock.

Fuck Ambition

Everyone seems like they're letting life pass them by nowadays. They're working stupid amounts of hours, and going to school into their 30s and 40s. It's ridiculous. Nobody really has time to enjoy life or have a serious relationship anymore. Everyone puts love on the back burner, and it pisses me off. Why does everyone think they need a goddamn Masters in everything now!? I don't care how many fucking degrees you have. It's a fucking job. It's what you do to pay the bills. If you're doing it more than 40 hours a week and have no social life, you're doing it wrong. I'll be 40 next year, and I've been alone most of my life. I don't want to be someone's weekend play thing. I want someone with actual free time.

Do I sound insane? "What if I told you insane was working fifty hours a week in some office for fifty years at the end of which they tell you to piss off; ending up in some retirement village hoping to die before suffering the indignity of not being able to make it to the toilet in time? Wouldn't you consider that to be insane?" ~Steve Buscemi (Con Air)

"Now tell me which ones are free. Free from debt. Anxiety. Stress. Fear. Failure. Indignity. Betrayal. How many wish that they were born knowing what they know now? Ask yourself how many would do things the same way over again? And how many would live their lives like me." ~Jack Reacher
