Does no one pay attention to this thread all 376 pages of it. A couple pages back I posted a link to his story which is located on this forum about the situation and where he is staying.



PP lemme know when you scrounge up around $70 bucks man and we will get that bastard slanted and covered.
70 bucks really? I was lookin at about 300. New plywood, more 2x4s, tar paper, tin sheets. I really dont wanna do all that work and leave the damaged boards up there.

Excuse me fine sir, it appears your double data rate Synchronous dynamic random access memory is running in single channel mode, if you use two sticks with the same physical size (such as two, two gigabyte sticks) your double data rate Synchronous dynamic random access memory would run in dual channel mode!

You mistook abbreviations/shortened words with "txt" speak. Where retards dont type out vowels, since it might use up their bandwidth or something :P

Useless shit can barely spell his own name, and he cant write anything by hand.

(he cant spell the street he lives on, the suburb he lives in, or the name of his school. He has no mental deficiency or anything, he's just that lazy/dumb)

Well add in plywood then. Thought you were looking to keep the water from puddling up as a temp dry fix then change out the bad stuff later.

seriously, what a silly viewpoint you have.

Oh no, I'm not using 100% perfect English - might as well drop back to a 5 year olds level then since i cant be perfect.

At least we want SOME minimum standards.

Lay off Sol, he doesn't have the worst spelling. Maybe a FEW run on sentances and minimalistic view towards punctuation but really he's been extrememly helpful.

And welcome back Polaris! hope school isn't getting the best of you.

Other than a small spelling or punctuation mistake there's nothing major, you don't have to re-read what we say to understand it whereas when people type as if they're texting I tend to have to read it 2-3 times to understand what they said.

It's not a viewpoint. This entire thread is riddled with the proof.

The thing is everyone started to talk shit about shorthand when I typed txting vs. texting.
Seriously? There isn't one person that has common sense whom doesn't know what txt is shorthand for. LOL I'm sure the direction isn't at me; and more so toward the general norm in this thread, but for "txting" to bring it up...

Just got back (2:30am) tested a couple of identical Dell monitor's I got for free, one work's perfectly but a poor res of 1024 x 768, the other makes a strange noise come out of my amp/pc speaker's, and yet the only way they are connected is powered through the same 4 way extension cable :S

"MM" (as they all seem to call you here... I'd be the least bit impressed if I got woke up by anyone wanting to cut my hair... I'm just glad I'm not "PP" at this point in time
