I keep complaining to my office-mates about the sounds that Weatherbug makes. They turn off the sound, but then a few weeks later, the sound is back on! Very annoying.
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Doesn't Weatherbug install a whole bunch of adware?

I prefer waitron -- even more impersonal, almost machinelike.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, the Weatherbug sound is super annoying. This is some shit from the Weather Channel, so it just makes thunder noises in case of emergency -- or it did, before I turned the sound off.

I like the indeterminate gender-ness of waitron....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Weatherbug alerts are awful, I agree. Not just the chirping sound, but they alert you to everything, not just changes. So if it's raining, it will chirp every friggin' three minutes to tell you OMGSTILLRAINING!!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Nowhere in the ballpark of JMPP, but the writing is hilariously awful.

Too much so for me. I use "server" because that's what servers I know say.
