    Change's of Wallingford?

    My knowledge of the inside of gay bar ends at Dempsey's Brass Rail, Spokane, WA, circa 1998.

    I voted your answer down because your answer is in first place and my answer is in second place and I want my answer to be in first place.

    Please do me the courtesy of voting my answer up.

    Right click on a picture that you know should work. Like somebody else's picture. Their picture must be right or it wouldn't be there. Then try uploading that as your picture. It it works, then you know there is something wrong with your file, either too large, or the wrong format.

    If it doesn't work, then it is probably your browser (clear your cache, enable cookies) or a weird internet connection.

    Once you know the answer, you can upload your own picture.

    Don't steal my picture. Steal Fnarf's.

    It's true. If I haven't come to your site and snagged elenchos, it means you have no future. None. Yes, I'm talking to you Flickr. eBay. Yeah.

    Seriously? I wrote all that and it boils down to people being just mad at new technology? I think I said quite a bit more than that.

    Maybe the short version is: People are mad at being expected to invest in what looks like a fad, with little obvious benefit and a big chance of failure.

    People don't get mad at new technology that solves a problem that you knew existed, is there for you when you ask for it, just works as advertised, and then lets you get on with your life. Like Viagra.

    All true, but the Ninja 500 always gets terrible reviews. The problem is basically that it seems like a nice step up from a Ninja 250 in performance, but in price it is too big a step up. In other words, for what you pay for a Ninja 500, you could get any one of several much nicer bikes. Whereas the Ninja 250 has nothing that can touch it at that price.

    Because their friends keep asking them if they use Twitter yet. That's what is annoying them. Like I said what, four times. Peer pressure. Why is this not getting through?

    Nobody but your wife nags you to try Viagra. Nobody nags you to go out and try wireless stereo speakers. Nobody nags you to buy GPS. You can ignore that stuff if it doesn't solve your problem.

    But HDTV? CDs replacing tape and vinyl? DVDs replacing VHS? Twitter? Here you were, your life was fine, everything worked, and then one day the nagging starts, and sooner or later time runs out and you have to do it. Annoying.

    It solves a problem you didn't know existed, and people bug you about it. I can't explain it any simpler than that.

    I use Twitter, dumbass. Twitter doesn't bother me in the least. You have a reading comprehension problem.

    You should stop talking to everyone you know who isn't on Twitter. You will be happy, and I for damn sure can say your non-Twitter acquaintances will be happy. You're clearly incapable of seeing the world from the point of view of someone who thinks differently than you.

    Ten different ones? "Naughty?" Trashy? Where do you see this? I don't do much driving around town like I used to so maybe I'm missing it. Photos would help -- trashy or classy?
