Help - My Keyboard is Running Out of Ink!

Archive: 10 posts


Okay, so get this. I was noticing that my forum posts were getting a little pale, and washed out, so I went to the local office supply store to get a new ink cartridge for my keyboard, and, would you believe it, they didn't have any. I mean, I know my keyboard is getting on in years, but is that any excuse not to carry the refills? Do they really expect me to buy a new keyboard every year just to keep up with them? Anyway, I figured that maybe it was just well hidden, so I cornered a clerk and asked him where the keyboard refills were, and he just stares at me! So I ask him again, and he says he doesn't know. So then I ask to talk to the manager, and he says he'll go get her, and as he's walking away from me I can clearly hear him laughing under his breath. That's just rude.

Moments later Linda, the manager, comes out, and I ask her where the keyboard refills are, and get this: She tells me that they don't exist! Now I've had to put up with a lot of crap through the years as a consumer, but this was a new one, even to me. I mean, if you don't carry the **** product, just admit it! Don't lie to me just to cover up your failings. I mean, does she think I'm an idiot, or something?

Anyway, to make a long story short, I don't think I'll be shopping there anymore. I would go into more detail, but it suddenly occurs to me that I need to go order a new ink cartridge somewhere online before I run completely out of ink.


I thought we could use a good light hearted thread. Some of you have probably already seen this before.

Lulz, nice job. I hit 'reply with quote' and I must say, I don't understand the colour codes one bit.2011-04-07 04:38:00

I didn't even look at them. I'm not sure who first wrote this but I just copied it from someone who posted it on another forum who himself copied from yet another forum.

EDIT: Just took a look at the codes, they're hexadecimal codes.

Here (http://patorjk.com/text-color-fader/) is an example of a gradient text generator for anyone interested.

On a related note, this (http://patorjk.com/misc/scrollingtext/timewaster.php) is great too.
