The real wtf is in using something that relies on a "very strictly controlled Windows environment" to work without requiring your users to reboot. I believe it's time for one of your users to come down to IT support and give you a righteous beating for wasting their time on broken software.???

@El_Heffe said:Exactly.I ended up setting up all the kiosks to full screen repeat a Rick Roll of the hotel lobby..HUH???My interpretation: He went to youtube, found a music video of Rick Astley and let it play in full screen. Apparently it's a fad to mis-direct people to the video of that song. Kinda like goatse, but in video form. And totally not offensive. /shrug
To be honest, I prefer this video. It's more amusing for people who get the joke, especially if they read xkcd.
Also, when did we get new trolls? I must have missed that when I was gone for a week.

@Sad Bug Killer said:It was definitely clbuttic.I disagree, this is the best censorship ever: BlugrbuttThat's what we on tdwtf call a clbuttic mistake.
So you modify it with something else, like say... the output of /dev/random.
There's still a lot of C work being done. Also, I suggest you get a copy of the ANSI C standard and hit him with it. Of course, that's just me.

Well done. I nearly laughed out loud in my cubicle. You get a gold star.

It's these losers' way of saying "we didn't laugh at this and we don't think it's worthy of our belligerence." It's a public forum though, so they can suck it.
Ah... elitist douchebags. Got it!
Thanks for the info.
Quoting Lysis while talking about elitist douchebags? Mmmm... irony is [i]delicious.[/i]

I apologize. I never in a million years would have guessed "Right, it should just guess what you were trying to do" was a joke. Feel free to bring up my lack of humor in every post you make from now on, though. (SPOILER: That was a joke.)Bad move, now you're gonna get trolled in every post he makes.

I... I agree. What the flipping fuck was that?Wha...what the fuck did I just watch?
Maybe I should have been more clear that it wasn't just the typos I was citing as "stupid behavior of google ad software"
I've found that google's ad software has been pretty stupid for some time now. Not really a surprise.

Never gonna give you up.

Never gonna say goodbye.
Never gonna tell a lie

Case in point for my frequent reference to the company board room as The Short Bus.

Could call them anyway, if we chose. We have their address.Their phone number. I didn't really want anyone to call them to justify their spam.

I've seen these busses before, but finally had a chance to grab my cell phone (camera) and snap one - which is also why the quality is so bad... Really, if you had an unfortunate last name like this, would you want to slap it all over your business?

Agreed, people who think the government is the real WTF were probably too young to remember the clinton years.
Or just don't like to remember Waco and Ruby Ridge.
I know somebody whose software broke today. Some variables have not been evaluated to protect the children.

$city, $state. (February 29, 2008) – A precautionary boil water notice is in effect for all water users in the city of $city. The boil water advisory was issued due to loss of water pressure caused by an early morning power failure at the $street water plant.
Although the loss of power was of short duration, water pressure dropped below the 20 psi threshold which triggers the boil water notice. The water plant has returned to normal operations.
A boil water notice is a request for residents to bring water to a rolling boil for one to three minutes before using it for drinking or cooking. The boil request is a precautionary measure that is expected to be removed after satisfactory tests, according to Utility Director $bureaucrat. First test results will be available on Saturday by 9 a.m.
The city of $city also supplies water to $nearby_city and the area north of $other_street in $other_nearby_city. All residents in these areas are advised to adhere to the boil water advisory.
For more information, please call the city’s utility department at $telephone_number.

I think the real WTF is that the statement "OgRaise" is not "OgSmash" as it should be.

I have this amazing tool called Google Image Search...Touche... Just looked personal and the timing seemed right, so good job on that.
The timing had more to do with wading through the image search results until I found one that said "Bikes only". Apparently my city is peculiar in that we verbosely state that cars are not permitted in the bike lane.

And I wish more people would always use their signals. People can't get it through their cell-phone infected brains that pedestrians use these visual cues too. If I know you're turning I don't need to wait for you to putter past me to cross the street. If I don't know you're turning and step into the cross walk don't blow you're f* horn at me I have the right of way and you never indicated your intent to turn.
I had this happen to me a few times. I only live three miles from work in sunny Florida, so I ride a bike everywhere I go. I have thought many times about getting a horn to mount on my bike. Not the little clown horns either. I'm talking about the 90 dB, aerosol powered, piss-me-off-at-a-sporting-event kind of horn. It might help end my daily ritual of swerving around the road to avoid the jackasses who don't understand what this sign means:

When he's done, he turns on the UPS and I test it; it works to my satisfaction, and I pronounce it well.Do you spell out each letter, or just say it as the word 'ups?'
I've always heard it pronounced "oops". As in "Oops, I, being a beancounter, was fucking around where I shouldn't have been and kicked a plug out of the wall. "

She wouldn't bother to type "KDSFOFJKFW?", she'd just say it.What if she was in trouble, and the only means of communication available was email, and she was only able to add one contact (you) before hitting the send button and falling to the floor. What if the subject line was "HELP ME!!! KDSFOFJKFW?"
Not likely, but it could happen.

Yet, these same people are the ones that yack on cellphones while barreling down the highway in their 3-ton, 14±MPG monster (usually a Ford Expedition or GMC Yukon).Not all people in a SUV are bad. My parents always had them because we lived out in the boonies in MI, and a Chevy Suburban is the only vehicle that can go....
Dashing through the snow,
Down an unplowed two-track road,
With five kids in tow,
Bitching all the way.... and still manage to stay on the road the entire time.

The button I sometimes wish for on certain people.
You know, after working in the industry for many years, a lot of us have snide remarks for just about any WTF. On the other hand, sometimes you come across a WTF that defies logic (har har) in so many ways that it's indescribable.
Words fail me.

Too bad you can't express "lol wut?" properly in a verbal conversation.
No, but you can get a fairly close approximation with the proper arch of an eyebrow.
