Mine drools everywhere! Seriously I had no idea cats drooled untill this cat became obsessed with sitting on my lap (seriously it doesn't sit on anyone elses lap much to my girlfriends dissapointment untill we moved intogether and she always sits on my lap at the PC) and the cat drools eveywhere! It's really fucking weird. It got to the point where I can't put my arms on the armest after she's sat on my lap cause they're soaked with drool.

Steam is ticking me off a lot lately, I love it, but lately i've had a lot of problems i've never had before. Sometimes I will click to load a game and it will come up that the game is loading, then the loading box disappears, reappears, disappears, reappears, the game never loads and I have to close steam to fix it. Sometimes if I load a game that uses Steamworks the game starts to load but I cant get past the main menu because it says Steam isnt detected. This also happens on Valve games like Portal 2.
Closing and reloading Steam fixes these problems but its been happening a lot and they should be fixed properly by Valve.

so my course finished yesterday, which means i'm finally on holiday.
but wait, this is "What ticks you off"!
yeah, due to some cock-up in some booking software somewhere, i was booked into a single room instead of a double, like i'd asked for (and paid for). in the end, it's all been sorted, the "Day of Action" (or whatever these worldwide protests are called) means the place is fully booked tonight, but i'll be "upgraded" tomorrow.
not sure if that means i'll be getting the room i paid for, or if i'm skipping that tier to the next, but whatever, all good.
it's not really that much of an issue, logistically. i was initially supposed to be meeting up with a friend here, and spending some time with her, but she wasn't able to get leave for this period, so it's just me again. but i'd already booked the double room for us.

Steam is annoying me too. More and more games try to validate the files when I open, then say the servers are too busy. I tried to solve this by deleting the game, but doing so did not delete the game. I deleted the files manually, and it says the game is still installed. It seems as if my only option is to delete Steam, but I don't want to lose any saved games or anything, and I'm too lazy to back them all up :\

I think Steam's been having issues since Friday. The whole community and friends thing was down for a few hours. I wouldn't take any drastic action until Tue or Wed when they've had a chance to fix stuff.

It's been happening to me for a couple of months though. First Portal 2, occasionally Team Fortress 2 and Counter Strike: Source, and the game I couldn't delete was Left 4 Dead 2. Seems to be happening mostly with Source games.

I wouldn't be complaining too much if you're just too lazy to try a possible solution.

Downloading over 50 games isn't something I'm really looking forward to doing, believe it or not. Not to mention it would take a long time finding out if the game uses Steam Cloud, finding its save game and copying it somewhere else, for every game I have. It would take at least a week to do it all.

It reaffirms my opinion that no animated show should ever be made into a live action movie. It's just terrible, and made even worse in this case since it was created by a western studio.

Dragonball Evolution makes the Avatar movie look like Titannic.

That statement confuses me - which of those is meant to be the 'good' one in the comparison?

Titannic is supposed to be the 'good' one, since it's a very popular movie.
