NSFW... especially if you work at Samsung.
So, today I discovered that our smart phones and tablets... technologies of the future really just want to fuck us in the ass. Sort of like the infamous scene in the Big Lebowski when Walter is smashing all those car windows... except right now I really want to smash the windows feature on my phone. So, I tried using my phone to update my blog, I tried twenty times to update my blog using my phone. Probably took longer than that. I used at least 20 sites to do it. I had the blog fully typed out, and in a moment of stubborness worthy of a Donkey or a Donkey Kong I refused to type it out again after it wouldn't post said message on my blog. It was my moment of writing absolute garbage, and typing it out again when I didn't feel the same way felt wrong. So I tried copying and pasting using my phone, took me a while, but just like learning to ride a digital binary based bicycle I got the hang of it. So I posted it again... nothing... I tried posting it again... nothing. I began pulling my hair out, or trying to pull my hair out before I realized the Patrick Stewart bald head look wouldn't compliment my facial features well. It took me a while to realize that the mobile blogger feature is... the most useless creation ever made. Wanna make a new blog every time you send a text message? Do you want to eventually make over 1000 blogs floating around in cyberspace never to be found or read again? If you're not interested, then you're probably more sane than the people at google who made blogger messenger. So I decided to go to the full blogger site rather than the pathetic piece of turd mobile site and tried posting my fully written blog there... and then I nearly threw my indestructibly cased smart phone at my less indestructible TV. It wouldn't let me paste onto blogger.
So I asked how to post from my phone to blogger on Yahoo answers. I still haven't heard a response, because when you try to ask a valid question on that site, no one is inteligent enough to actually answer valid questions. So I tried saving my blog as a draft on my email account and then posting it to blogger through my tablet. I go into the email section on my tablet... and what do you know... I discover it'll probably take an entire century to finally load said draft. So I try copying and pasting the draft as a Facebook note on my phone, and using my tablet to copy and paste the note... but it wouldn't copy. So after every single option was exhausted and preparing to form an angry mob destroying the worlds supply of technology I gave a last ditch effort to paste the fully written blog onto my blog by using my phone. Low and behold I discover you have to click on thr HTML button... the godamn fucking piece of shit mocking insidious HTML button glaring at me the entire time. Of course this all could have been avoided by using my computer... but then I wouldn't have had something to rant about, now would I? Technology: loves you when you love it, hates you when you hate it.
