Bahahahah.
I miss my Turtle Beach headset. My younger brother's friend "didn't see it" and planted his ass right on it.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
My headset shorted out again. This time at the base of the speaker where the wire goes in. >_>
I hate headphone wire so much.

By headphone wire, do you mean like the actual wire used (enameled wire) or mean actual wire, as in like the connector cable?

Re: The Official Rant Thread
The actual enamel wire strands. Horrible shit. It wouldn't been such a pain but they use a very fine gauge (like 36AWG) with only like 4-5 strands to make up the wire.
They twist thread in with it to make it stronger but only just so and when it does eventually short, the string makes it ever so much harder to repair.
Damn the flexibility, I want a cable as thick as an extension cord because at least it won't short out.

StyleXP doesn't work anymore because I updated my windows xp and it only works for certain updates.
How do I fix this?

I hate the music industry.
Also, my brother got himself banned from Xbox Live, and he has apparently no idea how this happened.
I haven't checked the email that was apparently sent out yet, however. We both share this Live account. Fuck I will kill him.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
So basically I have a shitty network which I hate. I have a primary Linksys router which is your classic, O-ma-god you-suck WRT54G. That router then cascades onto another Linksys router: this time a BEFSX41, which is an O-ma-god—kill it, kill it with fire—piece of crap which I hate from the depths of my being.
So what happens is my secondary router—kill it with fire!—likes to simply stop all connection whenever uTorrent is running for a length of time, or just randomly for shits and giggles when I am trying to post a reply on remnant, or watch a streaming video. This is most frustrating—but it gets better! The primary router, being the P.o.S that it is, loves to also drop connections from time to time.
So when the hateful secondary router is working fine, the primary router fucks with me.
I am going to buy a new router soon, and smash the fuck out of this BEFSX41 model.
Also I am going to the Zoo.
