This image fits right into my impression that the internet is a big seething cesspit of stupid right now. So I have the whole image leeching problem taken care of. Goatse's hello.jpg is gone and now they've got something better. It was a message board, as i thought. It was a post your favourite vote for the best type thread, and the first post has a clicky-linky to a GIS page. From the page people post their favourite lolsquirrel. There were close to 1000 visits a DAY from the google image page. Then someone decided that my "the chix are all up in my nuts" was the funniest and linked to it in their message. Did they save the image and use tiny pic or photobucket or imagebucket and then use that URL as the img src tag? NO! They directly linked to my webpage, using my complete URL.
I don't have a domain, I have a subdomain. It's only one below a full domain, and above a tripod.members/myname type site. I don't have unlimited bandwidth, and every time a picture pops up on your screen and bit of my bandwidth is used up. I don't mind people reading my blog, checking my webpages or looking at my photo albums. i don't even mind google image search. The problem is that once all my monthly allowance for bandwidth is gone, I don't get anymore unless i pay for it. I already pay a small annual amount for the site, and extra bandwidth is expensive. I pay for this, and the people who link to the picture on whatever message board don't pay. They are literally stealing my money when they hotlink.
Now they are getting a super larger 1000px square table busting image of Horatio Caine looming giant sized over the Miami skyline. He's holding his super-powered sunglasses of Justice and saying "I see you are leeching my images. keep on leeching...and I will leach you...a lesson you will never forget! YYYYYEEEEAAAH!" It has some special coding embedded in it, it wears the JPG extension, but it's so much more than that. Horatio isn't the only one who can see you! PING!
Speaking of cesspits of stupid, I joined "vote for the worst" and I am now having fun pointing and laughing at some of the stupidest American idol crap out there. What I like about VFTW is that they don't take it all so seriously. They have a whole bunch of killer GIFS and graphics. Like this seacrest FAIL picture. The funniest thing on line is the Fans United Christian Kingdom for Adam prayer group. Rather unfortunate acronym, don't you think? And I love the woman posting in "Grannies for Adam" asking if he's one of those "Transvestypes." My dear...if you only knew...
Last AI GIF, I promise. This question was PM's to me from a sewing board. I hate these, I get far too many of them:
But I did not take textiles in school I do electronics.
So I don't no where to start or anything!
Can anyone help.
I just was like off the shoulder corset dress which kinda is like tight around my waist then like flows down to my feet.
I would buy one but like I am an unusal size and boning does not fit me.
Help please. :)
They always end with the stupid little happy face emoticon. Why do people always pick a complex advanced level evening dress for their first freaking sewing project?
Anything else to complain about? How about the weather. There was a windstorm that lasted two days, then Yesterday was picture perfect, and now today we're in the middle of a snowstorm warning. And It's that time of month...fortunately due to The Change that's nowhere near as much of a headache as it was in the past. Too much information!
And that's all for today. Coming tomorrow: Sewing pattern reviews!
