I just spent alot of time posting!
I see that, looks like you hit a small bump.

What happened?
Well, someone set up us the bomb?
I'm serious!
Oh, well.. looks like your post got pulled.
Augh! I spent alot of effort on that! How did it happen?!
Couldn't be because you were doing it wrong?
What the, how'd you get that video of m-- uh.. I don't even wear that!
Right Skippy. *cough* Well, since you asked, here's how posts get removed.
First, if it is against TOS it gets seen.
Then it gets marked.
Okay, I have that much.
Then the mods gather:
Pictured, mods gathering.
I don't think that's how it looks, I..
Look, do you want an answer or not?
...Yes?
Right, carrying on.
Then they back their vehicle up to your post.
Whoah! What the heck is that thing?!
It's a machine, that eats other machines.
With this:
I don't see what this has to do with my post vanishing, can you tell me wha-
Watch it question boy! I have a flamethrower!
You want to vanish like your dog did?
What the?! No, not Roozer too!
To be fair, your dog WAS drunk.
What?! Who would even... please don't point that flamethrower at me.
Right, and after they saw your post off the entire forum, they set it on fire.
Wait.. that man. His face, and fire! Oh GOD WHY?!
Oh, HIS post was all about his face, so the mods set it on fire.
After that, they used the ashes to open a gate between our world and theirs, like this:
BLECH! That's horrible!
And those tentacles! GAAAH!
If you think that's bad, you should see what happens when the mods get their hands on a bad thread.

Oh look, here comes a mod now.
Looks like they want to ask you about that thread you just posted.
Gaaah! Tell them I'm indisposed!
Pictured: Moderator, dunno which one.
Tell them yourself, they're right behind you.
Wait, don't run away!
We haven't gotten to what happens when they edit your thread title!
This concludes our sordid fictional tale.
If you liked that, we have plenty more in the book "Oh the horrible things you'll summon!" rumored to be written by IamnotaMod
Firefox?
That may be a solution.
Or just wind back to IE09.
I’ll give it a month and see if they fix the problem first.
The old XP Battle tank is still sat here for other uses,a little FR time won’t hurt it.
I suspect there was a squirrel running by in front of the dog.
What I never understood was how ANY typing teacher expected a student to “memorize” the keys and your finger placements if you didn’t look at the keys? How will you know how close you are to finding the right key, besides making a bazillion key strokes in the blind search?
Not logical to me! LOL!
I never download any “new” versions of anything because it takes about six months of tweaking before the bugs are all found. I will stay with IE7 for now.
(Of course, I know someone who knows someone who works for Microsoft, so I may have an edge on that kind of thing...)
Hi ‘Face,
It downloaded itself, not even so much as a ‘would you like’ or hello!
Any other company that behaved like MS would go bust in fortnight.
I’m typsoing....we are no alone...
Right, you’ve sold it ...Firefox it is...
Will investigate later. :)
The key is to make it more his problem than yours that he hasn’t put his toe in yet.
Perhaps serve liver every night? Perhaps play Lawrence Welk’s Greatest Hits at top volume whenever he’s at home? Perhaps follow him the next time he’s going to meet a friend and after they’ve sat down for lunch or coffee or whatever walk up and say, “THERE you are! Where did you put that underwear you wanted me to get the stain out of? I need to get the laundry started.” There are all sorts of ways to make him wish he lived ANYWHERE else.
Why. Isn’t fox doing his job?
A new record.
Only took a few minutes extra for it to manifest.
It just amazes me, we are 3 thousand miles apart and yet you manage to have an effect.
A feeling comes over the room ,like you are being watched...
Then your spelling goes ‘up $h1tcreek’. Awesome.
You can get into the computer and set your selections to be notified of updates. That way, you don’t need to put up with any unpleasant surprises. I can do it on my own PC, but someone else would have to tell you how to do it. It’s beyond me to ‘splain that kind of thing!
Probably start with Tools, Internet Options, Programs...I’m lost from there...
I cannot explain it, nor do I try.
Heck, it’s been rumored that I manage to mess up even dreams.
I’m not sure of that myself.
LOL!! I like it!
I’ve been working on the Late Igor’s personal history (in the middle of WWII, in the western Pacific Ocean) and figured my typos were because my back was hurting. (I’ve been sitting here for almost two hours with no break!)
NOW I know...
