Also, I figured it was time to stop playing dead so I've dug around Photobucket for some seriously old stuff I made a long time ago (when did Photobucket start charging a fee and watermarking everything!?) to look more like an actual member.


Edit: wasted like 30 minutes jumping through hoops trying to meet size requirements and avoid watermarks only for every attempt to result in a broken signature. Sigh.

You've been out of the loop for a while. I think it was almost all of last year, photobucket had the brilliant idea to make sharing pictures a paid-account-only option. Big surprise, everyone abandoned their service. So they're currently trying to work to gain everyone back, while also more gently nudging everyone to pay for a subscription account... They still haven't completely figured it out.

You'll have to post your pr0n elsewhere.

I've been mailing flash drives to myself.

Always fun to trash a rental.

Could be worse. I drove a loaner Buick Encore 70 miles today. Including to a happy hour. Never been so embarrassed...

Lol.

This is the first car I’ve driven in the past two years since I got my BRZ. It feels so bad. Sure it has more pull but lord, the driver inputs are so muted and the seating position is incredibly high.

I guess the silver lining is State Farm allows for up to 50 dollar a day for rentals so the guys at hertz said once they get a “premium” car returned around Friday they’ll call me to see if I want to swap. One possibility is a Challenger. That’d be different at least.

Haha! I thought about that, but the potential for catastrophic transmission damage is higher.

I haven't used that account in at least 5 years. The signature and avatar I pulled are at least 7 years old.

I think the photobucket fiasco is a great example of something working in the exact opposite way a company intended. I have to believe they thought that people would scramble to fix all the broken links by starting to pay photobucket, and instead people just re-uploaded all their shit to Imgur lol.
