Uni posting systems - they can never make them right >_>
So you're writing a message (or submitting something) to the Uni's website.  You spend ages typing up a message.  What can be more irritating than seeing a "session time out" when you try to post the thing, and in horror, find that the entire message has been wiped?
IE7 is obviously too dumb to remember what you typed, but even though Firefox remembers, their system is so excellent that it wipes it for you anyway.

From now on, I'm always going to write stuff in Notepad instead - at least it doesn't time out >_>

I've long gotten used to that kind of poo poo.

I have shitty internet at home which always gets capped soomer or later. And when it gets capped, and there are multiple people using it at the same time, there's a high likelihood that whatever I'm posting wherever just times out.

So I pretty much got myself into in a habbit where I copy everything before I post, just in case something screws up, then I can always paste and attempt to post again.

yeah, I usually copy stuff before I post it too, if it's a long post, or something like that.

My Uni wireless has been pretty douche-y of late, so I'm quite used to having to click a link a few times before it finally loads.

I'm gay.
