confusion doesn't make me very happy.

Retarded people is where I find amusement.

Why did Microsoft ever have to make it possible for MSN Messenger (now Windows Live Messenger) users to change their status to Away? It annoys me.

The main reason it annoys me is because people abuse it. They change their status to Away when they really aren't away. They say they do it because they don't want people they don't like to start talking to them. Firstly, if you don't want "people you don't like" to talk to you, then either a) block them or b) delete them from your list! Why in the world keep them? If you keep them so that you have more MSN contacts than your best friend, then that's pathetic. Secondly, you can also just sign out. It's not that hard! Or go on Appear Offline, that's what I do.

Away means away. Away means not present. How many times have I talked to someone who's status was put on Away? It's not possible to be away and chatting. Silly morons. You're all liars.

Lastly, some of you may have noticed that MSN sometimes has difficulties with signing you in. I've read FAQ's and such, and I can tell you it's not always "bad internet connection" that is the cause of you not being able to sign in. It's the system that is too busy. The server gets an overload. I hate how I can't sign in to talk to people because other a-holes in the world have to put their status on Away instead of just signing out. It's like, "Guys, I don't need to know you're away! I'll know you away by seeing you're offline!"

So here's a little screen shot from yesterday morning. There are only six people online because it very early. 10am I think. (Yeah, I was actually going to post this yesterday, but I got distracted and couldn't think properly.)I got rid of the names, I wouldn't want to embarass anybody here. There's no need for the world to know that you are stupid and lazy enough to not just go on Appear Offline. And uh.. that stuff on the right is just the result of Saturdaymorning boredom.

This post doesn't really have a purpose. Well, maybe just to get you guys thinking about the whole MSN status thing.

No post-post list today. Too lazy really. And it's time for dinner.

Numbers kid,

Ya I do get annoyed. But that sounds exaggerated. I just find it stupid how people are always on Away...
Do realise that half of the time I have nothing to write about so I exaggerate my hate towards things (like Valentine's Day) just so that I can post.

Lotte,

Hmm je hebt een punt over dat dingen versturen. Had ik niet aan gedacht. Krant is wel interessant! Zeker als er een Fokke & Sukke in staat! Of andere strips...
Mr zit jij serieus 's ochtends achter de computer? Bij het ontbijt?
