TAKE SCREWDRIVEREQUIP SCREWDRIVER
The screwdriver handle feels a little greasy, but you grip it tightly nonetheless. I'm sure its sleek philips head will effortlessly sink into whatever flesh you apply it to. Or screws that you want to undo, obviously.

LOOK INVENTORY
The tattered and torn remains of your clothes have but one functional pocket that might hold three small items at best. It currently holds a $10 USB soundcard (1 unit), and a VGA-to-DVI converter (1 unit).
Whoops, the big heavy door slid closed when you stepped through. A dinky bulb flickers on overhead, bathing everything in a... well more like wetting things mildy. You can make out a desk and a very old computer. There's a few items on the desk.
It supposed to -- it's letting you know that the conversation is old. Most conversations tend to be relatively new. Old is unusual; new is not.
Sounds good on the surface, until you realize that it's shouting at you IGNORE ME IGNORE ME IGNOOOREEEE MEEEEE and then you know you've shot past your target.
Is there an ivory tower in the walled garden?
The garden is walled off with ivory towers.

I'm busy on my laptop in the basement
Every time someone's talking about their basement I envision this damp, dank cellar with grim, concrete walls; slightly mossed over and you can hear a slow drip of water echoing in a shadowy corner. Rats scurry in all directions as you descend into this dark abode of the nethers.

PUT VGA-TO-DVI CONVERTER COMPUTER
You bend deeply to the floor to the ancient beige PC case standing there and connect the DVI end of the converter into a DVI port. The UNSETTLING PICTURE OF MORBIUSWILTERS seems to mock your actions.
Seems like having female contributors would be a more important issue.
Man you guys suck at regex. (kisses muscles on both arms)
This isn't wrong or obnoxious.
It's funny.
*kisses deltoids*
So he's a fuckwit to his team as well, it's not just us?
I just think it's a really weird and unusual use case to expect to navigate in the address bar via random keyword matches on web page <title> tags...
It's how Firefox works. It's how I get back to a page a lot of the time.
I'm not saying summary isn't broken in general.
I'm saying in this case it's broken not because of thread length, but because of abuse.
Those people are assholes and we shall not cater to them.
So why is there a summary feature that does not work on long threads
Plenty of things to blame DC for, but not this.
I am aware that the original thread is very long and therefor it is kind of an edge-case.
You don't copy code snippets like that into an email and send it to the entire dev list accompanied by a comment such as "BAHAHAHAHA"?
Because we do that.
It helps— and not just in a venting way. It actually helps to improve overall code quality.
We do get sad since pretty much every single bit of code we see from third parties now looks horrible and dumb to us.
But after clicking that "In reply to", how do I easily get back to where I came from
make sure you scroll down to the suggested topics when reading.
I don't like the "educated guess" algorithm of Suggested Topics
Driving along the road, I passed a rather boggy meadow next to a small wood. I looked outside the window, saw that patch of land and my first thought was: "Now this would be a good place to build a castle".
I was on a road once on my bike, and I heard a heavy engine R-R-R-R-R sound behind me.
I thought it was one of these bastards:
Discourse told me there were no new posts in this thread. I guess it only shows the blue count if I have replied, but that's not very useful, is it?
The title is coloured black, sure (a bad indicator, but whatever, I can see it), but sometimes there's a black title and there are 0 new posts; or the new post is the one that I just wrote; or the one new post is one that I just read.
It's like the freshness indicators are broken an unreliable for every thread state permutation!
It's possible, sure, but I recommend against it because my brain will explode from all the retarded shit you're going to come up with.
This guy on another forum has a fast rotating rainbow as icon and it fucks me up.
Discourse only supports Android 4.1 or higher:
In other news, due to the thread title shortening bug, this thread is now shortened to Misandry is...
and I imagine cutesy cartoons
Eat some delicious food. Then take a nap.
I went to a thread and the page js-reloads when I hit Home? What the hell is up with that? Really breaks the feeling of speediness.
Oh god, it dynamically and constantly loads and unloads posts based on where you are in the thread. I guess that answers my earlier question of what happens when you have a long thread and you read it all. It does feel wayyyy slower than pages, even though numerically it might be faster. And I imagine your site is going to be absolutely hammered with requests single posts? If I interpret the net tab correctly, I estimate the about of http requests will be 2-5 times as much as with CS. But they won't include the tag cloud, of course. :)
The Home and End buttons don't even work.
Lies.
Edit
Ok, not lies.
Look, Atwood, I want Home to go the first post. Not the top of the page whereupon it will ajaxify the previous posts.

I'm still not sure this codinghorror isn't a morbius sockpuppet, because he fits in so well!
I get consistent, predictable, and verifiable behavior.
The suggested topics give me consistent, predictable and verifable results.
Namely, the new stuff. All of it. I don't care about the rest it shows.
After being surprised that Locallunatic is part carpenter, I got to thinking that, although we at TDWTF are all bound by our IT jobs in programming or SA, there are probably a lot of other things we do and love a lot.
I know AmmoQ was a house painter for a while; and Blakeyrat has a small field in his back yard where he grows at least 1 potato.
Apart from programming and gamez0rz, I play bass guitar and draw pretty well.
What do you do?
I'm not seeing the rest of the story!

There's no ep4. Sadface.
I like how it emphasizes the condition inside ifs and the operands inside the calls.
I only do inner spaces when there's too many parens in the condition.
And don't you fucking dare to cuddle that else. You're not helping anyone.
an awesome product is XenForo
Throw some jquery and pager.js in there, and you have the makings of a full-featured ajax app.
That sounds so much to me like "draw the rest of the fucking owl".
I should be able to sell like-offsets to other people who produce too much likes.
Hm, multiquote means less people will like my posts, since it's possible that only 1 of my replies will be sexy/hilarious, and people don't want to attach their heart some other shit I said in the same post.
Sorry, just trying to optimize my reputation.
i once removed a tiny bit of door threshold so the UTP cable could fit underneath it
It's like you guys are daring me to move this digression to a new topic.
Depends.
Can admins ban admins?
The truthful answer is "All the time" but I spend 6-8 hours of that in bed.
Can anyone do better (or find a mistake I've made)?
First, give me a reason to care a lot. Like, a lot.
