Guest Rob Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 The freaking advice people give on the best ways to learn a language. "Go to a country where it's spoken!" Yeah, ok, I'll just do that, no problem. Nevermind the fact that it would cost a fortune and require the learner to drop their entire life to go do it. My old french teacher learned to speak french by living in Paris for 5 years, while having a job at an english place. It didn't cost him much, and only a few years of his life.

Maybe not so much in Europe, but for an American that's pretty annoying. Especially annoying for me, considering I can't travel. This wouldn't be so bad, if it weren't THE ONLY PIECE OF ADVICE OFFERED half the time. Edit: I'd use Rosetta Stone but.. alright, I can't describe it. Go to the site and just look at the prices.

Dizzle229 Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I got it as an ISO and took it out of that. That wasn't the problem. The problem is that there are files within that need to be opened to use it, and those I still haven't worked out. Edit: They're .rsd's. Tbh you're probably not SUPPOSED to open them, but there are no other files I can open other than a PDF and a text file. No Executable or anything like that. Get back here so I can rub your butt.

jasignhagj Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Use Alcohol 120%. Thumbs up for stealing the program that lets you use stolen programs. On this topic, people who .rar torrents. Great, you cut the filesize down by 10%. Just don't expect me to keep the file and seed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Napalm Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 "I'll just take this 2 hour nap and then do something productive!". -6 hours later- "GOD DAMMIT". Just happened to me. Also, people who invite me to all kind of borring [cabbage] on facebook. There's this guy who sends me lie 3 invites a day to stuff like marathons, public protests and other [cabbage]. Seriously?

On the same topic, American time. I've missed so much school because of me setting the alarm to PM instead of AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foursideking Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 @wongtong: that's happened to me/my fiance numerous times. Gotta admit, it truly is annoying. Also, another annoying thing: people who assume they can borrow something w/o telling you just because you have 2 of it (ie: my idiot neighbor borrowing one of my guitar hero controllers, then when I find it at his house, him using the excuse 'well, you had 2, so I thought you wouldn't mind...'. Should ask'm next time if I can borrow 1/2 his house... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assume Nothing Posted April 21, 2011 Author Share Posted April 21, 2011 I definitely agree with whomever suggested the napping and ending up waking up late thing. That's happened to me three times last week dammit. Certain accents are quite annoying. I'd link a youtube link but I'm not sure if it violates the Tipit policy about naming names.
