Firefox Favourite Manga Dragonball	I'm not talking about water vapour, I'm talking about that damned company. Why do I hate them you may ask? Well that is a good question. First of all, I spent a good half an hour trying to sort out this damn error that kept popping up when I tried to log in. It was solved by a simple reinstallation. Then when I try to install my new Civ 5 game it comes up with some bull*** about it not being available for purchase in my country. Well how come I own it then Steam? you *ing smart arse I'm looking at the box right now you piece of *, crummy ***, software. Anyone know a clever way around this? Licensing rules piss me off.

Google Chrome	I've had my fair share of software frustration recently but with things like Photoshop and Microsoft Office Upgrades etc. I feel your pain but I'm afraid I can't help you with your problem... Just know that it's not just you that is annoyed at software DX

I miss the days when you bought a new game and you could play it the same day.

Firefox Favourite Manga Dragonball	I know. I'm usually up till way past 1 too. When this turned up in the post this afternoon I was looking forward to giving the CPU a good kicking on a small Pangea with China but noooooo. Good thing the new Guitar Hero turned up at the same time otherwise I would have been even more annoyed.
