    Goddamit.

    My router is fucked, I spent like the past hour trying to fix the connection to the xbox.

    And I still don't get paid for another week.

    Is it just routers that hate me personally?

    Or is it a machine versus humans thing?

    My neighbor is some manner of schizoid where he can't breath air unless it's through a full face filter system. The dude is afraid of everything in the world except his long, unkempt greasy-ass hair and facial scaring(the scars are from his filter mask)

    Just threw a plug fuse at him because fuck you you don't have a ham radio license stop fucking up the wifi

  • PoorochondriacPoorochondriac Ah, man Ah, jeezRegistered User regular
    Literally every part of that post sounds fake

    I know it ain't, but man. Shit's crazy.

  • ArangArang HUEY LEWISRegistered User regular

    Same guy that caused the bed-bug purge.

    The only thing I'm making up is the ham radio thing. When he's awake, and at home, the wifi goes to shit. I manage the router, and he doesn't connect any devices to it. Maybe he runs some kind of shit signal scrambler when he's sleeping, maybe he thinks the cold war is still on and wants to signal la résistance française.

    I don't fucking know!

  • PoorochondriacPoorochondriac Ah, man Ah, jeezRegistered User regular
    Did you know that some nerds figured out how to make a functioning internet out of ham radios?

    So even after The Fall, we can still all be maeking poast from our respective bunkers

    When I was a kid in old west Germany, used to ride my bike up-village to visit my German language teacher. Dude had a huge antenna built off a his balcony. We'd talk to Russians. Well, he'd have me ask a question and then he'd translate.

    The routers hate you because you're Australian and pronounce their name incorrectly. :rotate:

    If you pronounce it "flapjack"

    rooter?

  • FyndirFyndir Registered User regular
    In my experience Australians pronounce it like rout (r-ow-t) instead of route (r-oo-t).

    Wait who says "r-oo-t"?

    Correct people.

    That's actually how with original word (rout) was pronounced.

    Once it became mainstream due to networking and shit it offended american's delicate ears so they bastardised another word.

  • Cilla BlackCilla Black Priscilla!!! Registered User regular
    well r-oo-ter sounds extremely silly

    so I'm going to stick with r-au-ter

    Rout means one thing, and is pronounced one way. Route means another, and is pronounced differently.

    A router routes things, it does not rout them, therefore the pronounciation follows from that.

    I think this might be the problem with Blake's router, it is confused and routing the internet traffic.

    And by typo I mean fuck you I'm drunk..

  • FyndirFyndir Registered User regular
    I just assume you're drunk whenever you post, Blake.

  • Cilla BlackCilla Black Priscilla!!! Registered User regular
    blake is your router suffering from a disorderly retreat or is it perhaps poking around the ground with a snout?

    Ah, the mild perils of having family visit for holidays.

    My dad still hasn't learned that the switch to the bathroom fan isn't purely decorative.
