Caught an eBay seller I purchased something from in a lie. He says they don't ship on weekends so July 4th has screwed things up. But I had made the purchase the previous weekend so there was all of last week he could've mailed it out. Not only that, he's marked it as shipped on eBay but is also telling me it hasn't been shipped yet. Not sure what to do just yet. Today was the scheduled date of delivery and it never happened.

Early man's diet had no preservatives or artificial chemicals for flavoring, so I'm wondering about their bowel movements. Was it more, or less frequent? Are eating raw foods absorbed more so there's less waste thus longer periods of time between, or is this question even relevant considering modern man's digestive system is nothing like our ancestors? What did they wipe their butts with, or did they stop at the nearest water source, and squat down to clean? I wonder what they smelled like, and if everyone smelt the same, was is even an issue. This is the shit I think about.

Is this progress?

For 30 years, I used an old, 1980s boombox as my workshop radio. After decades of faithful service, it was starting to get a bit crackly so I replaced it with a new, high tech Sony.

Trouble is, being a workshop, I have to move the radio quite often as pieces of equipment are moved around and things are plugged into different circuits for use in different areas. This radio has the modern marvel of electronic tuning. Every time I unplug the radio, I lose the station that it was tuned to. So, several times a day, I have to run through various buttons to get it into radio mode and then I have to press more buttons to go through a couple of dozen stations before I find what I want.

The old one was dialed to my favorite station years ago and never needed to be tuned again.

30 years of advancement in consumer technology and THIS is it?

Yup!

They won't be a 3rd party host for pictures anymore unless you pay up $ 39-ish a month

Gold Ranger · 07-07-2017, 01:29 AM

They've gotten terrible the last few years.
They used to be really good.
Now all they are is a paysite and have a bajillion pop ups and ads.
Not to mention how slow they are...

I just read their new user changes. $40/month!?

Bartender, gimme what the photobucket brass are smoking. I've been a member there for years. Looks like I will need a new photo hosting site. Any suggestion?

You're not kidding about how slow and ad ridden they've become. I've put up with it because, well, it was free. Looks like It's time to part ways.

Terrible business model. They'll be gone in no time.

I just started using Photobucket last year and they already lost me lol. What a completely retarded move for them to make. So idiotic. I just switched to Imgur today.
