Open Question: Funny Rodeo Commercial?

Today on ESPN I caught the last couple seconds of what looked to be a pretty funny commercial. I am pretty sure the commercial itself was advertising the 2010 National Rodeo Finals. It had two attractive women sitting at a bar and a stop watch in the bottom corner (like in a bull riding contest). Any time a guy approached the gals, the clock started timing how long it took for the guy to get shot down. The last scene is of a guy who walks up in the background, smiles, and walks off (the clock doesn't even start timing). Anyway, does anyone know where I can find a link to this commercial? Thanks. more

Open Question: Whats the most boring TV channel other than C-Span and all the disney Channels?

I'm not talking the channels that get rented out and only show commercials (Dish network does that with some of their extra channels) I'm talking channels that have been on for years. The most boring channel I can think of is Animal Planet because my sister has watches that stupid "Big Cat Dairy" show, she's watched about every episode about 20 times and I'm getting sick of looking at these stupid cats walking around in Africa all the episodes are the same just stupid cats walking around and boring stuff and "Meer kat manor" was the same thing but they wasted alot of money advertising for a show that didn't get much views its really her fault I hate the channel, most of the time when I'm at home I can leave and go to another room most of the time but if its raining at a motel and she has the retarded channel on I can't go anywhere to get away from it. Why do all their documentary shows take place in Africa too? is it because the animals there ain't scared of cars and people and it's flat and easy to film there? I haven't learned anything off that channel in about 7 years why can't they film animals that live in North Amica? I don't think I would lean anything but at least the channel might be kind of neat but I guess people are too lazy to walk throw the mountains with the camera's because on Big Cat Dairy their always in there land rovers and the show is just boring and there "It's Me Or The Dog" Show is always the same Animals cops was ok but all their Other shows where dumb and their "planets funniest animals" was a 100% rip off of "America's Funniest Home Video's" all the Disney channels are just stupid but other than my sister liking a few dumb Hannah Montana songs she doesn't watch the channels (because as stupid as she is she is smart enough to hate all the Disney Channels) so I'm not really gonna go over them. more

Open Question: Sparrow Misses the old youtube :( Do you?

I miss the 5 stars I miss when you could give someone a thumbs down and it would show it because now there are no negative thumbs down only positive ones. I miss when youtube didn't have commercial that played during the video. I miss when youtube wasn't advertised so heavily on the front page. I miss when youtube was being f.d so hard by bloggers. I miss when funny videos were put on youtube. I miss when videos such as gaga and bieber didn't exist on youtube. I miss when people wouldn't fight over random stuff such as cute kittens. I miss when youtube didn't have many trolls. I miss when people posted decent guitar covers. What do you miss? more

Resolved Question: I am 13 years old and I need a way to make a lot of money so I can use it to move out and live in Vancouver?

I live in Toronto, I can't have a job, I don't get paid for cleaning up or things like that, I do not know any of my neighbors, I don't know anyone younger than me that I can babysit, I am smart and eligible to tutor, but it is very unlikely that my parents will let me, or that anyone will want me to tutor them.

(you'd be surprised at how funny nerds are these days) but I don't think I will make very much out of that. Also, please don't tell me that it is ridiculous to save money for something like that. I hear it enough from my friends. I am positive I want to use it for that, and if by any chance I change my mind, then I'll use the money for something else. Please be serious and sensible.

Resolved Question: Hottie and the Nottie - This is hilarious, don't you think?

Not the movie. I'm sure it's godawful, but what's funny is what's on the Wikipedia page about it's box office sales! The film was a major box office disaster. In its opening weekend, the film grossed $27,696 in 111 theaters in the United States, averaging $249 per theater.[15] The Houston Chronicle determined that, based on average ticket prices, this represented an average of 35 people seeing the movie per theatre on its opening weekend, or an average of five per showing.[16] In other words, the movie "bombed", costing the production company responsible over $8,000,000. According to Box Office Mojo, the movie has grossed $1,469,293 worldwide as of June 17, 2008.[17] For its release in the United Kingdom, the film is being advertised as "The Number One Film", with small print revealing its being number 1 on the IMDb Bottom 100. The film opened at 32 and grossed $34,231 in 28 theaters in the United Kingdom. more

Resolved Question: Kpop Fans: Look Alikes!?

FT Island fans this one for you! (And any others who can find another look alike star does not have to be Ft island!) Okay so I know I don't get many answers for my questions but that's not the point the point is that there are some kpop look alikes whether it is in the actual kpop industry or not but in this case its not (Sorry I hope the title didn't pull you in) Okay so like I was watching these videos on youtube (Bubzbeauty to be exact xD) and some how I came across this video about girls being shallow and I had to click but as I clicked I was like this guy looks like Seunghyun from FT Island and I also found a video that makes him look exactly like him. (Plus someone on his youtube account said something about reminding him of someone from Ft Island) Here's the video: (Warning these videos can be disgusting/funny or not suitable for minors!) This other one that makes him look exactly like seunghyun http://www.youtube.com/user/shimmycocopuffsss?blend=1&ob=4#p/u/45/6Q9MvFTWxZY (Girls are shallow when I first discovered it!) http://www.youtube.com/user/shimmycocopuffsss?blend=1&ob=4#p/u/29/W33IfhC8ny4 Picture(s) of SeungHyun: http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss218/MSukiSasia/FT%20Island/Song%20Seung%20Hyun/Fansigning39.jpg?t=1248588296 http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs174.snc1/6531_127909418552_64293203552_2378329_5451202_n.jpg (This one looks really similar) http://i2.sinaimg.cn/ent/y/p/2009-02-02/U1345P28T3D2360454F358DT20090202171631.jpg So tell me they look alike and if so why? My answer: Because of their smile? o.o Also if you have found some kpop look likes then please leave links or deep description. Note:I am not in anyway advertising just trying to show you guys something. ^.~ Plus I might make a part two with kpop stars who look alike.(I already did that question tho) more

Resolved Question: What was the old commercial (80s?) advertising a VHS video to teach you pool trick shots?

There was a commercial that came on in (I believe) the mid-80s that would teach you pool trick shots. It aired fairly regularly. I can't remember the name of the product, or of the pool pro. What I vaguely remember is the more famous/funny part of the commercial was when he enumerated the trick shots you would learn: "You will learn the masse, the [so-and-so]." I know that's not a lot to go on, but I'd like to find that commercial somewhere, but can't find it on youtube or anywhere else. Thanks. more

Resolved Question: An ebay seller doesn't want to give my money back... what to do next?

I had purchased a DVD collection in the beginning of June, and I paid with my credit card. I received the collection but only 2 out of 4 DVDs played. I immediately contacted the seller, and she sent me another collection, which had the exact same problem. I promptly mailed her back her 2 collections, which she received. Then she wrote me back saying she could not fully refund for the DVD collection on my credit card (she said the credit card company didn't allow her), and told me she would mail me a postal money order (for $4.00) to cover for the my expense of shipping of her 2 collections back, to which I greed. Then days go by and I don't get any money order and I don't hear from her, then I wrote her a few times. Then I wrote half.com and made a claim/complaint. Then the seller wrote me back finally saying she wanted my paypal email to refund my $4.00, and I told her I didn't have a paypal account and I was waiting for her to send the money order in the mail, as she had promised. Then she disappears again and no money order in the mail. Then I got fed up and left her a negative feedback saying she owed me money and I was still waiting. All of a sudden she writes me a threatening email saying I'd better change the negative feedback to neutral feedback because, in her words, "it was my fault that I have an older DVD player and I should have gotten a newer player to play her DVDs". The funny thing is in one of her emails she wrote after getting her 2 collections back that all DVDs played just fine in her blue Ray player... and she had advertised them as regular DVDs... no wonder they didn't play in any of my DVD players! Then she said she would write a complaint to half.com/ebay about me because I gave her unfair feedback and they would cancel my account, blah blah blah. I finally told her "keep MY $4.00 because you know this is not the honest thing to do, since I returned all your property promptly and you made a profit on me and I lost money on these deal". It's not because of the $4.00 but because she has to honor the deal and give the money that belongs to me back. She said she will not send my $4.00 back because of the negative feedback I left her. I told her I will not remove any feedback, as I saw I was not the first one that was scammed on this deal (she received other negative feedbacks as well). What can I do next? more

Resolved Question: Why did Wal-Mart show it as funny and humorous when a man dressed as a clown BADLY impaled his foot?

Do you think it's funny that I myself once accidentally stepped on a roofing nail and I was in pain? I had to quickly take my shoe and sock off, wash it, put neosporin on it, and put a one or band-aids on it. I was ok. But now, look at that Wal-Mart commercial. That wasn't just a mere roofing nail, that was a several inch deep toy unicorn spike. That was MUCH BIGGER than than that roofing nail I stepped on. If someone stepped on that type of toy in real-life from several feet in the air off some stairs, that would RIGHT THROUGH their foot, that might break the bones in their foot, they might end up in the hospital with a cast on their foot for several months. Why did Wal-Mart advertise this as funny and humurous??? I am going to write a complaint to Wal-Mart about this because I was immensely offened. Also, what if the gender roles were reversed? What if it was a mom dressed as a clown and that happened to her and two men on the couch were just staring at her without getting up and checking on her to help much like the way those 2 women did not help that man dressed as a clown?here's that commercial, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsvAj6qfmFQ more

Resolved Question: What would you do if this was your mom? Would you be annoyed?

(of course I am not going to listen to her, I just think its funny). Could you please do me a favor and postpone your garage sale until another time? I have a lot to do this week and I really, really don't want to spend a whole morning in the heat at a garage sale before I go to work. I couldn't stay past 11:00, because I'd need to go home and clean up and get ready for work, and I STRONGLY think that Mark should be there if you're gonna have strangers come to your house. I know you didn't ask, but ... on the subject of garage sales, there's no bigger waste of time than a poorly planned garage sale. I've had one before and I've been to a bunch, so I know what they're like. People are mainly looking for big stuff like furniture and appliances that they can resell, and baby items are always popular. If u don't have those, very few people will come. The people who do come will come in carloads, and a lot will be people that you definitely wouldn't want at your house. They'll be trying to get something for nothing, and they'll ask you to lower your prices or try to get you to go inside and look for something else. (Someone did this at my garage sale.) DON'T go in and don't let anyone go in. People look for really big sales. Smaller ones are a waste of time. They can always go to Goodwill where the selection is bigger. Most people will look and not buy anything. A few will be scoping out the place to see if there's anything they can come back and steal later (like a purebred dog), or how easy it might be to break into your house. If you advertise the sale from 8 to 12, people will come at 7 and they'll keep coming long after you want them to. Unless you name big stuff in your ad that these people want, you may sit there in the heat all day and make $20 or $30. Or you may get swarms of people, and one will try to distract you while their kid or their friend wanders around to your back yard or steals something. Overall, a garage sale is a colossal waste of time, and you'll be mad at yourself later for selling something that you bought for $20 and once valued, for 50 cents. It's really better to just offer your unwanted stuff to family and friends, or give it to Goodwill (where you can take it off your income tax next year). If you really must have a garage sale, you should spend a weekend or two going to a few, so you can see what goes on and at least know how to price things. (You've got to be cheaper than Goodwill.) And you can expect to see Anna! That's what she does every weekend -- go to garage sales and try to find stuff she can take to her house and resell. In fact, you may see her (or someone like her) twice -- once early to get your "good" stuff, and later, to offer to haul off the rest for free, so she can resell it, too. Well, that's my 2 cents. The most important thing I wanted to convey is that Mark should be there if you're determined to have a sale. Couldn't you do it on Saturday and Sunday? I don't know much about getting a permit. Can you cancel it or change the date? If not, I will give you back whatever you paid for the permit. BTW, I did make $400 at my garage sale, but that was ONLY because I had a bunch of large furniture items. Most of the small stuff didn't sell. You can ask Trisha, but I think she only made between $100 and $200 at hers. Sorry to offer unsolicited advice, but I just hate to see you go to a lot of trouble for nothing. -- Love, MomϟLILIPOWϟ_{I want the money} " I like my mom Source(s): Sorry, I only read and write essays for a grade " That means you must be really smart. more

Resolved Question: What song/artist used this music video?

It's a recent track, think it was out earlier this year but could have been late 2009. It's a British artist/group. The song has a modern R+B type feel to it. Video is set in a UK courtroom. The male singer (white) is dressed in a smart suit and singing while standing in the dock. Can't remember the lyrics, but he's singing about a woman. The other people in the room are half dancing, half vogueing. There is a security guard (male, black) that stands out, as his poses are quite funny. A short extract of the track is currently being used by ITV3, to advertise their summer program. That's about all I can remember. I want to find out who it is so that I can try and find a download of the video and the track. Help me Obi Wan, you're my only hope..... more

Voting Question: Why do people still like hhh?

Hhh is a popular guy but i don't like him. I'm not saying he sucks but i don't see why people like him. When he was in evolution he used the three other guys to try and keep the world title. He cheated and also kissed up to the gm eric bishof to get what he wanted. He's always been carried around by legends like hbk and ric flair. The only thing i like about him is that he was one of the founders of the greatest wwe tag team ever- dx. He gets massive advertising as poster boy of several pay per views cause he's the boss's son in law. Since wrestlemania 18 hhh has lost in 5 wrestlemanias not even having participated in all 9 wrestlemania since that one. Even in the game he has an invincibility look cause of his relations. Thq actually got a letter from wwe saying that hhh should not be shown in a vulnerable or defenseless positon in the game. All in all i can agree with dx fans cause i'm a huge dx fan. Hhh actually wrestles better as a member of dx and he's also funnier but "hhh is my favorite" type of fans i can never understand. Please comment. I wanna hear thoughts of both hhh supporters and non supporters more

Resolved Question: DS: This makes me LAUGH!?

PUREBRED BEAGLE PUPS APR reg, extra small, parents under 13". Oh how people can be stupid enough to buy puppies just because they see the words "rare", "papered", and "small" Anyone else got some funny ads to share (I've asked something similar before, but these ones really just crack me up)? Legit: What's a funny joke you know about dogs (I don't know, I can't come up with a good legit question)I like it when they put tea cups in tea cups.... We get that it's a "tea cup"... And, what are your trying to sell me, the puppy or the cup? No way I'm paying $2,000 for either, by the way!For the labradoodle, I just think it's funny that they bred a crappily bred "rare" silver lab to a poodle to produce an even MORE crappily bred puppy. I bet I could just dye a white dog purple and call it a "rare violet chiweenie" or something and people will jump all over it. more

Resolved Question: Is it legal to label a food item by a fruit that is not contained in the product?

I bought a large tub of Yoplait's "Creamy Strawberry" yogurt. In the past I've purchased the small ones that have chunks of strawberry in it so I thought it was a great deal price wise to get a large tub for the sale price. First I found it strange that there were no chunks of strawberry like there is in the small sized ones. It just tasted a little funny so I read the ingredients and there is NO STRAWBERRY listed in it. It's fake coloring and artificial flavors yet there are pictures of strawberries on the label. Is this considered misleading and false advertising? more

Voting Question: How do I stop fancying him?

I really like this boy at school, he is in all my classes except one. We are really good friends in school, I sit next to him in loads of lessons, we work together a lot, he will wander over and talk to me as soon as I get in on a morning etc. We work together a lot on speeches and presentations in English because we just sort of click, we bounce off each other so we can improvise well and we both have similar interests. He is one of the funniest people I know, I laugh a lot with him (properly, as in until I can't breathe) and we both have identical senses of humour. We mock each other in a friendly way all the time, and sometimes I spend lunch with him as well as all the time in class. We have loads of inside jokes and little rituals together, and the buses we take home park next to each other and he always sits on the side I do do we can talk through the windows. He always mentions he thinks I am one of the people he will stay in touch with in the future, and that he would love to work with me (we both want to go into advertising) We never see each other outside of school except for end of term days when the whole year goes down the town etc. It seems awkward somehow, just today I saw him in Tesco a few times when I was walking around and I never went up to him and said hi (no idea why) And I'm sure he saw me a couple of times to and he never said anything to me. He was only with his sister (who I know quite well because she's in the year below me). We did text each other about it afterwards though. We have never met each others families. I adore him as a friend and I really fancy him. Loads of people suggest we go out and we just ignore them when they say and continue our conversation. When he did acknowledge our other friend saying it, he said "I couldn't live with her, she would drive me mad after two weeks" then laughed. So I don't think he likes me that way, and I really want to stop liking him too and stay good friends with him because it's driving me mental! Any advice? Thanks to all who answer :) more

Voting Question: For those of you with martial arts training...?

...I have a bit of an unorthodox question for you. I was searching on Google for a pair of gloves for my boyfriend for his birthday, specifically a pair of gardening gloves with flames on them as a gag gift (he's really into gardening and has a taste for the ironic, so he figured flame covered gardening gloves would be funny). While I was searching I ran across these: http://www.shop-mma.com/product.php?productid=16173 As it were, he's also very into martial arts, specifically mixed martial arts, and loves gloves with the fingers cut off. Now these are fairly expensive (as you can see) and having no martial arts background myself I have no idea if these are legit or not. If they are, I don't mind paying the steep price because I know they'd be something he would really love and use all the time (he practices quite often, but only owns a flimsy pair of wool winter gloves to practice with at the moment), but I wanted to figure out if these gloves are actually special made or just advertised that way. I don't know if you can necessarily tell from the picture, but I would love any help you could give me. Thank you! more

Resolved Question: can you help me?i'm italian so...continue.....?

i'm italian,so english is for me a foreign language...can you say me if in this text there are mistakes or if it is correct?is it understandable? This is an advertising of a movie released in Italy in 2008. The main character is performed by Jim Carrey, who is represented in the middle of the image. He is a happy man, jumping against a lightblue background:the sky, with some white clouds. We can also see some palms looming on the distance. The name of the actor is written with a white script on the top of the image; the title on the bottom close Jim Carrey's legs. The word “YES” is red, the word “MAN” is white to create contrast and point up. “One word........” is the body copy;it is on the bottom following by the credits. I choose “Yes man” because is a story about a man, Carl Allen who is at a standstill unti the day he enrolls into a personal development program based on a very simple idea:say yes to everything! Carl discover with amazement the magical power of “yes”, and sees his professional and romantic life turned upside down overnight: an unexpected promotion and a new girlfriend.

Resolved Question: Ad where a man bursts out laughing at a funeral?

So a couple years or so ago me and my sister were watching a trailer for some movie online, and there was an ad before it. The ad was of a funeral service, and there was a guy with his head in his hands and it looks like he's crying, but then he suddenly jerks his head up and laughs really obnoxiously. Haha I know it sounds horrible but it's actually really funny. Anyways, it's advertising something, but I don't know what. Does anyone know what its advertising or where I could watch it? I think if I knew what it was advertising I could find it easily on youtube... thanks!! more

Resolved Question: Do companies use racially ambiguous models on purpose to avoid looking racist?

Resolved Question: Rate this 1 - 10, 10 being so funny tears come out?

Last weekend I saw something at Larry's Pistol & Pawn Shop that sparked my interest. The occasion was our 15th anniversary and I was looking for a little something extra for my wife Julie. What I came across was a 100,000-volt, pocket/purse-sized taser. The effects of the taser were supposed to be short lived, with no long-term adverse affect on your assailant, allowing her adequate time to retreat to safety....?? WAY TOO COOL! Long story short, I bought the device and brought it home. I loaded two triple-a batteries in the darn thing and pushed the button. Nothing! I was disappointed. I learned, however, that if I pushed the button AND pressed it against a metal surface at the same time; I'd get the blue arch of electricity darting back and forth between the prongs.?? AWESOME!!!? Unfortunately, I have yet to explain to Julie what that burn spot is on the face of her microwave.?? Okay, so I was home alone with this new toy, thinking to myself that it couldn't be all that bad with only two triple-A batteries, right?! !?? There I sat in my recliner, my cat Gracie looking on intently (trusting little soul) while I was reading the directions and thinking that I really needed to try this thing out on a flesh & blood moving target. I must admit I thought about zapping Gracie (for a fraction of a second) and thought better of it. She is such a sweet cat. But, if I was going to give this thing to my wife to protect herself against a mugger, I did want some assurance that it would work as advertised. Am I wrong??? So, there I sat in a pair of shorts and a tank top with my reading glasses perched delicately on the bridge of my nose, directions in one hand, and taser in another. The directions said that a one-second burst would shock and disorient your assailant; a two-second burst was supposed to cause muscle spasms and a major loss of bodily control; a three-second burst would purportedly make your assailant flop on the ground like a fish out of water. Any burst longer than three seconds would be wasting the batteries.? ? All the while I'm looking at this little device measuring about 5" long, less than 3/4 inch in circumference; pretty cute really and (loaded with two itsy, bitsy triple-A batteries) thinking to myself, "no possible way!"?? What happened next is almost beyond description, but I'll do my best...? ? I'm sitting there alone, Gracie looking on with her head cocked to one side as to say, "don't do it master," reasoning that a one- second burst from such a tiny little ole thing couldn't hurt all that bad. I decided to give myself a one-second burst just for heck of it. I touched the prongs to my naked thigh, pushed the button,?and?? HOLY MOTHER OF GOD, WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION!!!?? I'm pretty sure Jessie Ventura ran in through the side door, picked me up in the recliner , then body slammed us both on the carpet, over and over and over again. I vaguely recall waking up on my side in the fetal position, with tears in my eyes, body soaking wet, both nipples on fire, testicles nowhere to be found, with my left arm tucked under my body in the oddest position, and tingling in my legs? The cat was standing over me making meowing sounds I had never heard before, licking my face, undoubtedly thinking to herself, "Do it again, stupid, do it again!"?? Note: If you ever feel compelled to "mug" yourself with a taser, one note of caution: there is no such thing as a one-second burst when you zap yourself! You will not let go of that thing until it is dislodged from your hand by a violent thrashing about on the floor. A three-second burst would be considered conservative?? SON-OF-A-... That hurt like **% !!! A minute or so later (I can't be sure, as time was a relative thing at that point), I collected my wits (what little I had left), sat up and surveyed the landscape. My bent reading glasses were on the mantel of the fireplace. How did they get up there??? My triceps, right thigh and both nipples were still twitching. My face felt like it had been shot up with Novocain, and my bottom lip weighed 88 lbs. I'm still looking for my testicles! I'm offering a significant reward for their safe return!! Still in shock!! P. S. My wife loved the gift, and now regularly threatens me with it!? "If you think Education is difficult, try being stupid." more

Resolved Question: Should I stay or should I go? PLEASE HELP?

Last year, I started a permanent job which I accepted because of the recession. (I have already discussed my situation in this forum). I am suffering from many issues such as commuting time (4h), hostile work environment, lack of private life and exercise… Many people in this forum suggested me to look for another job but I simply cannot find one. After 8 months now, I am finding this job interesting. I am in my 30ies Although the company had some problems with processes and management affecting our performance, I had a bad quarter review based on people unprofessional comments about me. I was furious. My manager was not happy and told me that if I wanted to stay he will help me (he never did). I am working very hard to cover my tiredness and my professional frustration. My work performance is slightly doing better. A role has been advertised within the team with interesting responsibilities and money but I am simply too tired to apply. Also I don’t trust my manager as I feel he does not want me here. He knows that I can do better. The problem is now that my life is out of control: I don’t socialize, see my family or friends , cannot have hobbies or simply read a book. Saturdays are spent recovering. I still need to repair my car, I don’t dare to ask for some hours off to see the dentist. It took me ages to repair my bike for example. I don’t know what to do as I need this job. I don’t want to be unemployed again. The company would like me to relocate but the search is not successful. They are not supportive and refused an unpaid leave. No one cares. My situation is funny: when I was unemployed (many times!), I was not happy and had no life due to lack of money. I was dreaming of going on holidays, doing sport competitions or simply treating myself in a spa. Today with this job I feel the same. I feel sad. Tomorrow I don’t want to wake up at 5am I have enough. I am also stressed as I only have 15 days holidays left til december Please help me. Louise more

Resolved Question: anyone heard of isoftwaretv? Or streamdirect tv, or satellite tv for pc software?

I did some searching around trying to find the most legit and best quality internet tv software on the web and everything pointed to one software maker: isoftwaretv.com. I just bought the isoftwaretv.com software which supposedly allows me instant access to over 3000 premium channels including ALL the premium channels you get with cable and also the ones you have to pay your cable company extra for. Well..........uh this is a scam people. Sorry. First off in the buying process they only have you put in your email address. Usually with ANY legitimate online store or service you create an account. That's the first clue. Then you'll notice in your address bar that in the buying process you're jumping around to different sites completely away from the domain name of isoftwaretv.com. So they have no way of tracking your account if they were a real company. But they aren't so this makes sense. Next, after they charge your credit card through Clicbank.com they show you get two things for your purchase: the isoftwaretv tv watching software download link, and a link that says "access sports streams". What?! I thought the player was supposed to give me all the sports channels that cable does! So I check it out first and it is all the commentary and stuff you get directly off NBA.com or any other professional sports website, but NOT the game itself. Note that the web address in your browser has changed yet again to http://members-area-tv.com at this point. I'm starting to realize this is for sure a scam. I noticed that I get a receipt from "CLICKBANK" and not isoftwaretv.com. That's funny I thought I purchased my product from isoftwaretv and not from Clickbank. Next, on my emailed receipt from "Clickbank" I see it says "Vendor's Site: http://www.streamdirect.tv" Wow, so I get a receipt from streamdirect.tv but purchased my product from a company who is supposedly called isoftwaretv. Apparently all these internet tv software companies are really just one company putting on different name and look on each of them. So I'm mad at this point and decide to check out the tv software application. It better be good. I flip through 15 channels and all but two of the channels don't even work. So I see what are these other 2985 channels....well they are in foreign languages, poor image quality, and basicaly I wouldn't watch these channels at anytime for free. No live sports, no Live NBA or any professional sports at all. I see only about 20 available english channels and...like I said only two work. Then I get these ad-ware spy programs popping up on my computer advertising for pornography and such with windows that when you try to close them they won't let you. Maybe I've made it clear that this product is only a scam and not a product at all. Funny that no one has bothered to write about this bad company that is nothing more than a scam. Don't believe any positive review on the web, apparently they worked hard enough on their scam operation to fill up the web with false positive reviews. Thing with scams is that it only takes one or two really negative reviews to expose them. So believe my review and don't trust all those other ones. At the very least, if you decided to try the software, make sure you call up your credit card company and reject the charge that was just placed on it if you don't get what you paid for or were led to believe you would receive. That's it, I'm doing that first thing Monday and making sure these guys never get a dime from me. In reading this, please do your duty and notify scam.com or even the FBI to make it less profitable for these type of people. These guys are tenacious so they can and probably will just do something simple like change the name from the current "isoftware.com" to any other random name after they've been exposed through comments like mine. I think the key take-away message here is that internet tv if not freely available on a place like hulu.com or doesn't come up first choice in a google search then it is just not available. If free tv were available then it would be freely available and easy to find, with no software purchase. TV programs are made by and produced by and paid for by their respective networks. NBC produced the shows and paid the salaries of Conan O'Brian, and Jay Leno, etc. That means their content is all theirs and no one gets it unless NBC makes it available to them. Why would they give it away when they have companies like COMCAST paying them for access to their content? I'm not sure about this but I'm thinking that " satelite TV for PC " might be this same company, but you can refuse the charge on your credit card statement if you do check it out and find it a scam as well. more

Resolved Question: He deleted me from EVERYTHING??!!!?

Personally, I think its kinda funny...LOL But I'd love people and their opinions so here goes: I was seeing someone for about 4 months. He asked me out ONCE and that was 4 months ago. Anywho, we never went out, he wasn't chivalrous, he was kinda rude, and he didn't seem interested in me. So I deleted him from different social networking sites. A couple nights ago, we had a long conversation. He asked me to re-add him. I did. Now, its barely three days later and he's erased me. He once came to my home and asked me to be "faithful to him" but that he didn't want "titles." I said that's not what I want but I can respect it....YEA RIGHT! I feel like my life doesn't go on hold for him or anyone else. In between that time, never did he ask me out, he called me ONCE and now I think he's just jealous that it was advertised on my page that I went on a date. So he turned around and deleted ME! This is so high school. WHY would he be jealous when he knew he wasn't doing anything for me? Why would he CARE when he never put his best foot forward? This is a interesting situation....I guess its more of a humor thing for me. I still date but I just can't put my life on hold for someone when I KNOW that I could do better. Im pretty vibrant...Ya know? :) more

Resolved Question: IMPORTANT! Class Rep. Speech for MONDAY election. Good or bad?

Feedback please. It is just a representative spot, not like president or anything. Students and faculty, my name is Stacie St. Louis and I am running to be a representative of the class of 2011. Most of you may know from my constant status updates on facebook or for being a student in your class that is very loud, very talkative, and, at times, slightly annoying; but also from being a person that works hard to do the best that I can. Today, I am here to talk about how I can apply all of these wonderful qualities, and some others, to make the most important year of our high school experience, our senior year, the best that it can be. Senior year is the year we have been waiting for ever since we entered Attleboro High School as freshman. It’s the year when everything that we have worked so hard for comes together in the decisions that we make for our future. With everyone leaving the Attleboro High the next year, we want to make this last year that we will ever be students in high school here the best with many fun events. We want to have a great senior prom and an even better senior week, but we want to have very profitable fundraisers, like mr. ahs, to make a lot of money to make these events to be a great time. When it comes down to it, what we need to make lots of money is participation and support from the students of our school. It’s the class council’s job to advertise like madmen and think of many fun ideas to get the crowds that we need at the fundraisers. It’s impossible for any fun, profitable, and memorable events to get done if we don’t have the best class council that we can possibly have to represent our grade. What we need is dedicated leaders that can work together as a team to make the decisions for our class events that project the opinions of everyone in the grade. In a representative position of the class, I will make sure that the members of our council works together as a team when making every single decision. I will bring to the meetings both my own ideas and your ideas so that I can represent what the students really want to get done. I will always be available if anyone ever has any ideas to share, but cannot attend a meeting. I will be very dedicated to the matters of the class and, to the best of my ability, try to attend every single meeting. We all want the same exact thing of our senior year – we want the best and funniest times of our high school experience. We want to remember this year when we are ninety years old and telling our great grandchildren about back in the old days when we were in high school. If you agree with this and any of the other things that I have said here today, when voting, circle around {{{{put a little checkmark next to}}}} the name Stacie St. Louis for a class representative. Thank you everybody for your time and have an amazing day. more
