Go on Amazon and look up rolling/pastry boards, for rolling out pie crusts or otherwise flattening dough.
"I used it as a cutting board and my knife tore up the wood"
"Not useful as a cutting board"
"I used it as a cutting board and my knife scratched the marble, nowhere in the instructions does this say not for use as a cutting board"
one star one star one star one star one star ...
People. Anything hard is not a cutting board, it's going to tear up your knife. Marble is soft, but will destroy your knife while taking scratches. Soft plastics and wood useful as a cutting board will take knife damage, fact of life, something has to give. And what the hell is with the reviewer that actually wrote "Nowhere in the instructions does this say not for use as a cutting board"?!
Look, see this? Washing machine! Nowhere in the documentation is it labeled "Not for use as a parachute"! Now go strap it to your back and jump out of a plane!
I swear the whole world is a breeding ground for idiots....

I dunno
anything interesting, I guess
Also, the best Amazon reviews are the hilariously over-the-top ones.
"I BOUGHT THIS LAPTOP AND IT WAS NOT THE ONE I WANTED EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS ON THE SPECS HERE THAT IT IS NOT WHAT I WANTED. ONE STAR."
then helpful reviews get pushed to the top
Though after a while people are just trying to hard and you're like 'seriously people, this isn't funny anymore'.
also the thousand or so spore reviews of one star because of the stupid DRM
Granted that game doesn't deserve much more than one star but still

That doesn't mean it was a bad item, or the fault of Amazon!
last night I used an atm and it ate my card and apparently shredded it
great, right, real awesome
so I call the bank this morning to report it lost in their stupid atm and the idiot woman on the other end confirms that they're sending me a new card in 7-10 business days
luckily when I signed up for this account they for some reason gave me two checking accounts, in case a situation arose where I needed to move my money into an auxiliary account -- perfect! now I can use it!
turns out idiot woman cancelled the debit card attached to my auxiliary account -- the one with not a fucking cent in it -- instead of the shredded one
so now I can't get to my money at all
I FUCKING HATE BANKS
AND IDIOT BROADS
STEAM!
you should repost it in every thread
This has been going on for a year and a half. They call once a month or so.
You should make it your sig.
After I had an issue with ID theft back in'06 (day after Christmas, no less) somebody got my account number and registered a domain and hosting. I called up Bank of America and reported it and had them cancel the card and reverse the charge. They said they'd send me a new one in 5-7 business days.
I waited. And waited. Long story short, after three months of phone tag and promises of shipping out a card express next day delivery, and visiting several local branches, I finally walked in one day, sat down, and told them to give me all my goddamn money as they'd dicked me around long enough and I was closing all of my accounts with'em.
They were mailing all these cards out into a black hole, or something.
I have had office friends show up at the office holding a package they got from UPS.
"What the fuck happened?" "Uh, well it looks like they hit it with a fork lift." "... so your plasma TV has a hole in it?" "Two holes, actually."
fucking banks

Damn. I get that for the battery, and they actually come into my apartment like "Where's the meter?" and I'm like "Look, here's some beer I made, go away, it's in the basement, call the management company."
i just closed my bank of america account about an hour ago

Amazon lost a little luster in my eyes when they cut off all the comments from the Tuscan Milk entry. Something like 1000 poems were made expressing that milk's glory!
I guess at some point after completing my transaction I completely forgot to get my card from the machine even with the beeping it was no-doubt emitting to warn me. It wasn't until I got my print that I found out my ATM/Debit card was missing so I charged it on my Visa and ran back to the bank to retrieve it if possible.
The woman at the desk when I walked in saw the distress on my face and asked if there was a problem. I explained that I left my card in the machine and if they had retrieved it. She told me she'd check, as the ATM just sucks up un-claimed cards and dumps them in a bin. She came back and asked my name and birthdate and then gave me back the card and everything was cool.
I was so relieved.
Thank you Sovereign Bank in downtown Boston, you are a lifesaver.
Isn't that why you guys buy those extra good knives? I thought it was for murdering the ignorant fucks. It's why I order all the acid for the lab and keep a supersack of quicklime handy.

Of course now my account will soon be transitioned into a Chase one, so I dunno what's gonna happen next.
god I wish
the amount of staggeringly stupid shit I see from other students just makes me wish I had some quicklime
How many tons do you want?
I do work for a large minerals company you know.
Secret Satan 2013 Wishlist
several tons
There's pip in full coveralls with a mask, gloves, and foot covering. He's not happy.
Ok, the student says with a resigned tone
Pip shoot him in the head with a single silenced pistol shot and walks out.
The student drops his bag of bagels.
Wait I'm having a hard time making food come out edible, and you've got culinary school students that can't take a pointy object and a blunt object and figure out which one's the knife and which one goes in their ass?
... well I WAS considering going to school to learn how to cook but... maybe I'll survive better on my own...
was that about a poster here killing a student for bagels because if so you just became an accessory
