- Comment on Alas! 5 days ago:
This is going to sound shit but I don’t care.
I can’t stand talking to morons. I talk matter-of-factly. I explain the problem. I say “Do you want X, Y, or Z? I’d recommend Z.” And these idiots still reply with vague no-answers and then I get shit on because I point out their stupid behavior.
Anyways, now things are better because I just use AI slop to fix my writing and send that garbage to them.
And you know what? It fucking works. If their answer is still vague garbage, I repeat. Copy their slop, put it in ai, tell AI to give a professional response, paste that slop right back until I get an answer.
It’s been saving me a dozen headaches. And chances are these fuckalls are using AI already so fight fire with fire.

One fed up customer service staff member took a screenshot of the boss’s email and drew an arrow + circle, and that was the whole reply to our email chain.
It made my day.

Yep! And those hosts bend over backwards. Like here’s a spare room, here’s some local chocolates from our town chocolatier. I made these jerkies. You’re invited to our 8pm fireplace time and have s’mores.
It was a real community. They still exist. But they’re overshadowed by shitty Airbnbs that want you to clean the gutters and mop the floors now for twice the price of a hotel.
- Comment on We're going backwards 5 days ago:
I have a fondness for AirBnB. It’s gotten way bad in the past decade, since it’s being gamed.
Back then, there wasn’t much of a review system for shitty places. Today, Google Maps, Yelp, forums, social media - they can warn you about shitty places. And from my experience back then, a lot of hotels were scams.
Need a place to crash? You can either get a scary motel for like $40 that might have bed bugs, or a hotel for $300. I remember my first time in 2000 booking a hotel over the phone, having them save me a room, only to get there and these fuckers tried to upcharge me. I walked and they said, “Good luck finding a room in the middle of the night!” My mom eats specific foods because of her health issues, and Airbnbs often have shared kitchens. Hotels only recently started adding kitchenettes. And some hotels had locked devices. TV was extra. Fridge was extra. Touch snacks, fucking extra. You expected to pay $250 and here’s a bill for $600. Don’t want to pay? Well we’ll call the cops.
Airbnb and Uber gave people options, and you can give bad reviews to these bad actors. Having all this competition, hotels and taxis improved dramatically.
Of course, now Airbnb hosts (not Airbnb the company) took a lot of the shitty behavior that hotels used to do. Not to mention a lot of the Airbnbs are now owned by real estate companies who are trying to squeeze every penny.
So yeah, hotels have come back around to being a better service. And now if you get fucked over by the Marriot or something, take photos, leave a bad review, and they bend over backwards to apologize.

But this one really stings.
“Half baked skills and items for the existing classes have never been fixed, tooltips LITERALLY LIE TO YOU in some cases”,
Text is the easiest thing to fix in a game. And that just reeks of shotty work, especially in a MMO.
