Sov's Crazy Ramblings

Today, I got my first notice for paying one of my servers… 5 minutes later… it is cut off, disconnecting about 100 people from Teamspeak, severing their voice communication, losing them lots of money in ships…

I called my server company, where the indian guy who answered claimed there was “nothing he could do” and “the system automated is sir”. Helpful…

Meanwhile I was trying to pay for the server, which i hoped would sort it out and make it go back on… I don’t use credit cards much… but I don’t think that made much of a difference here. I have 1 credit card, 1 debit card, and my parents have 2 of each… After trying ALL of the cards, I raged…

Every single fucking card has a new “security” system on it. that you could previously avoid and bypass. “VINI, Verified by Visa, Security Bollocks”. “Please enter your mothers cat’s aunt’s middle name before she was ressurected as zombie mutant jesus” Actually if it had asked me that I would probably have had more luck.

My spanish cards, the ones with the “vini” system… just don’t work, there is no sense to the system whatsoever, it appears that to use your credit card, you have to… Login to the website.. Login again when you get to the vini section as it forgets who you are while you click 1 link. Then you add your credit card, fill in all the info about you that the bank already has and some more, then you have to.. get this.. you have to fill in the site you want to buy from, the username and password you use on that site and then it might work…? I have no idea honestly as I thought, “fuck that” and didn’t bother to do it.

The UK cards were different, they required the Verified by Visa thing.. Something that actually doesnt make much sense either but isn’t quite as fucking stupid as the spanish one.. You have to put in your details as normal… Cept it asks for your post code.. and as we dont live in the UK it doesn’t like our one… So after a phone call to the company we found out we’re meant to use THE BANKs post code… Stupid huh… the only way of finding that out is  calling them…

Eventually I managed to get the visa thing working and the server paid for… though it was down for about an hour, majorly inconviniencing 100 or so people… all due to badly designed automation and retarded banking systems…

Good job to all companies and services involved, you’re setting a shining example for the required level of retardation in this world.. Good show!

Ohh sorry, i’m informed that its actually pussy cat dolls, could have fooled me. Has anyone actually watched these videos or listened to these … “songs”? I mean seriously… There is absolutely 0 talent there. “an sho em wat u got”. It simply makes me sick.

Okay now you say.. “Oh but they have talent”. Yes I’m sure they do, in fact I know they do, they know how to: dress badly, reveal 80% of their body, shake anything that can wobble and generally just attract idiots who are fans just for the looks of the singers… In fact I can’t call them singers, artists.. thats still a very generous word.

Anyway, you may be asking what is my point here? well my point is that today i have noticed the pussycat dolls somehow on my internet travels and today I was also disgusted and I laughed at how shoddy and poor their performances were.
