I'm frustrated by people who tell one-sided stories that make them look like innocent victims and and their opponents like cartoon villains or penny-ante operators. I've heard that spiel often enough to see right through it...

I've been reading about chrono eric's ordeal, and this seems like the appropriate thread to express my own relief and sympathy.  Very glad to hear you're alright, and I'm also glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read "Jesus dejesus", or my laptop would be shot!

Wonder if he'll turn out at all like this guy:


Seems I had a frustration a minute ago, but lost it.  Damn.

Wow.  200 pages of frustration.  That's kinda sad.

Shared frustration is better than internal frustration (maybe).

Think about it like this. There's 200 pages here instead of 200 dudes getting kicked in the balls or 200 walls with holes in them. Not bad at all, I'd say.

200 frustrations over 2 years. That's about one frustration every three days, which is pretty good, I'd say.

In addition to this, I'm frustrated with people who act like cartoon villains to innocent people. There are some rare people, that if they had a mustache, they'd be perpetually twirling it.

JD Salinger sues!

What's the one really important thing that separates Salinger's claim from Square Enix's claim against Crimson Echoes, hmmmmm?

People would still play Chrono Trigger even if it wasn't required reading in public schools?

EDIT: Oh, and this J.D. California dude is trying to make a profit off it. Also, SE may someday make use of their copyright on the Chrono Series, whereas Salinger has clearly indicated that he never learned to share and even though he wont do anything with the IP, ever, he wont let anyone else either.

Yeah. Purple's not a color. It's actually violet. Thanks a lot, Crayola. Also, salmon is not a color. It's a fish.


And Realism is an art style, like Cubism or Impressionism. So if you see somebody's drawing and it looks almost real, you can't say it looks "realistic" because then you're saying it looks like it was intended to be drawn with that art style, the proper term is "naturalistic".

Art school is expensive and teaches you how to be pretentious.

That's pretty frustrating.

I recommend to a lady that her high beam bulb is out, and needs to replace it. She says no and leaves

Two weeks later she comes back and says she got a ticket and blames me for not replacing her bulb.

 :picardno

Bitch I told you two weeks ago to get it and you said no

(I work at a dealership as an autotech)
