Bugger it, I bought my brother a kick arse (though late) birthday present and now I'm not going to get to see him open it because he's not coming to town next month as he planned. That's rather disappointing

stonebro: You're supporting astrology. Astrology. The worst kind of pseudo-science. Just let it go and lead a better life.
I'd place homeopathy lower since it can lead to people actually dying when they think that drinking a glass of water is a more reliable treatment for their cancer than chemotherapy

My computer is going to shit. I need a new one ASAP and by hell will I not have a new one!
I'm very disappointed that I'm not going to see my dear friend.

Dammit!

And the classes start next week. X.X

Zchinque: That was never a yellow card. He clearly dragged his foot, hoping to get a touch.
You're referring to the dismissal of Rafael I suppose? Yeah, that was crap, but what do you expect with Phil Doumb as a ref.

Other than that though the kid is just too damn fired up. He's clearly a liability in any big game like that.
There's actually some deals I'm interested in on PSN for once. And I have no moneys. :(
Finally . They fixed my internet connection .

Just off the top of my head, Why Objective-C Pisses Me Off (some of them are Cocoa beefs, but I consider them intertwined enough that they count):

-header files, as you mentioned
-no namespaces (we don't need such basic things as visibility control, we're really C with a funny hat!)
-no meaningful access modifiers (unconscionably stupid, and one the Objective-C community handwaves with "hurr, don't call a private function somewhere else!")
-no operator overloading; for most of the code I do for fun this is more important than you'd think ("add together two vectors"); some languages can get by without it but after having it in C++, C#, and others it's a pain in the ass
-lots of clumsy syntax (@"blah" and @keyword fucking with my IDE autocomplete, lotsOfReallyFuckingLongMethodsThatCouldBeNamedLessStupidly, the basic message-passing structure is not exactly a shining example of good design)
-the decoupled design is in itself a flaw in a lot of ways: I understand the Smalltalk paradigm and why it is theoretically not terrible, but when I get hit with runtime errors that should have been caught at compile time, I get really ugly
-a mediocre garbage collector on OS X, no garbage collection at all in iOS (yes, blah blah, "if you're a good programmer you don't need one" - unless you are capital-M Magical your code leaks somewhere)

Get her a kindle, load it up with public domain horror novels and then have the back of the device engraved with a life size depiction of your genitals. You can't GET more romantic than that

Could it be there's a reason I'm single?

Life-size? But the larger Kindle DX is only 10 1/2 inches long. I suppose I'll have to give her two of them.
Its supposed to be romantic not unrealistically boastful...

I have another bitch finally! Never ever EVER buy a saitek cyborg keyboard. I got one in june last year and it died in october, spontaneously stopped responding to any keyboard input on both PCs I tested with even though the backlight and usb hub worked fine. I got a replacement in a week or so after it died, its just done the exact same thing.

Piece of SHIT
