    FAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR


    I have no idea why this thread decided to open right on that image, but I'm glad it did. That just made my day after dealing with this stupid fucking Kindle.

    Oh yea, right the Kindle.

    So I got my mom a Kindle Paperwhite for Xmas cuz I am a fan-fucking-tastic daughter. I threw a couple books on it for her really quick without doing any organizing so she would have something to play with while I was away. When I came back she gave me a list of what books she wanted and I created her a library in Calibre (I have my own kindle, the older version with the keyboard) I've been working on it as like a background project because she's not the type to read two books in one day so I know as long as there's a couple things on there she's good, but I only want to have to do this once and then just update as necessary with new stuff. This fucking paperwhite has been a complete nightmare. I'm not sure if it's Calibre, or the Paperwhite, or me just being especially thick, but I swear to God I have converted, re-converted, loaded and re-loaded this shit at least 4 times already. Mom likes the crime thriller series books, the James Patterson, the Nathan Fillion's TV Show guy, so editing metadata is VERY important to keeping this shit organized. And since IIIIIIIIIIIII don't read these books I have to keep a Wikipedia tab open at all times with this to make sure I get everything in the correct order. For whatever reason the Collections plug in for Calibre won't create Collections on the Paperwhite so I have to do all that on the device. Which isn't like the END of the world, though it is a bit irritating, the thing that killed me was after editing all the metadata (again) to include which series the books are in the Author field (cuz there's no option to show the 'series' column from Calibre in the Kindle) NONE OF THE EDITED METADATA TRANSFERRED to the kindle. So I had to convert all them into AZW3 format then delete all the mobi's off and put the azw3's on before it fucking took.

    Thanks for letting me rant. Love the Random Thread about Anything.

    Guys. I done fucked up.

    I'm replacing some furniture in a small space so it has to be done like little by little. Also most of it is bigger than me and I'm not trying to hurt myself before I leave for Europe.

    However there is something I did not take into consideration before starting this. I had to unplug and move everything that fills the air with sweet sweet music.

    IT'S LIKE TORTURE!!!

    It's not just you. He reminds me of the guy in the boner pills commercial. The cowboy.

    I attempted to shoot a carp with a bow and arrow from a boat this morning. The arrow hit me in the nose.
