HEY,

Is this ie elephant in the room nobody's talking about? Because I'm talkin' the hell out of it, starting now.

http://www.poppycockcircus.com/ is just a red page for me! Oh no! Is this the same for other people? Hopefully it's temporary!

BACK TO THE TOPIC AT HAND!

It's always been a red page for me, man!

Posted: Thu Mar 03, 2005 11:26 pm

No, there's supposed to be a comic too! What have you been reading?!

It might be a problem with my computer because my screen went black, then I got an illegal operation (in Mexico; they's cheeper there), lather, rinse, repeat, and all that jazz.

EDIT: Sorry for messing up your thread, Justin! Let's get this train back on the rails!

No, I also have the red page, so it isn't just you.

Yes! Nothing is wrong with me!

Are you guys using Intersuck Exsucksuck? It still loads, it just takes a while longer in IE.

Yes, I'm using IE; no, it doesn't ever load beyond the red screen.

Try now.

If it works, you all owe Justin one talking about this.

EDIT: By the way, if the thing I did fixed it, I have never seen a better argument to switch to Firefox or Opera or SOMETHING ELSE BECAUSE EXPLORER IS BRAIN DAMAGED.

Works now. Thanks, Steve!

Sound argument or not, I'll stick with IE simply because I'm lazy.

I had Firefox, but my mom made me take it off because she said it was messing up the computer (more like making it way better!), or some load of cephalopod like that.

I love the SBTBQotD blog! I'm rereading all the classics, and it confirms my motto: "Steve Carey is probably the funniest man alive".

That's my actual motto.

Inform your mother she knows nothing about computers.

Then instal it somewhere she'll never look, and don't link to it on the desktop.

"Load of cephalopod" is a much better use than "that's so cephalopod!"

NEW TERM: APPROVED

P.S. Your mom is crazy.

Yes! My dad also thinks that having a background on the desktop was messing up our computer!

SHUCK THAT JIVE!

Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2005 5:03 pm

SHUCK IT STRAIGHT TO THE DUMPSTER AND THEN SLAM THE LID ON THE JIVE IN THE DUMPSTER.

Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2005 5:08 pm

THEN CALL THE BOMB SQUAD AND TELL THEM THERE'S A BOMB IN THE DUMPSTER WHICH WILL CAUSE THEM TO COME AND PUT A BUBBLE AROUND IT AND BLOW UP THE DUMPSTER WHICH IN TURN WILL BLOW UP THE JIVE

Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2005 5:10 pm

BUT BEFORE THAT KICK THE DUMPSTER REALLY HARD SO THAT YOU LEAVE A DENT IN IT.

A DENT OF DISGRACE!

Posted: Fri Mar 04, 2005 5:44 pm

THE JIVE WILL NEVER DIE

UNLESS...

Seriously though man, save up a small bit of scratch and get your own computer.

Posted: Sat Mar 05, 2005 12:36 pm

I'm trying! I don't and have never had a job (I guess it's almost OK since I'm 16) so I don't have enough money handy that my mom would let me use. I think I'll get one in April maybe, after my birthday. Or maybe not.

Plasma can be donated several times per month.

Posted: Sat Mar 05, 2005 12:52 pm

Yes! Jackpot here I come! Wait- does donating plasma hurt? Or pay well?

Good people of the Internet,

I'm trying to figure out how I can change the domain name of the SBTB QoTD from the ridiculous and meaningless "poppycockcircus.com/v-web/b2" to something reasonable. I tried uploading the code for the blog to "poppycockcircus.com/sbtb.php" or some such and it went, "Here's a gablillion critical errors Steve, you nimrod."

So, anybody know how to do this?

Yours in consternation,
The Cmdr

Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2005 2:35 pm

You know, all this php gooblety-gook is not safe for us to play with, Cmdr. I KNOW. I would suggest a quick email to RR would be the fast way to resolve your situation.

Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2005 2:38 pm

No, this is outside the main page php. It is a safe place to tramp around and make a mess if I want.

ARGGH! ANIMAL MAKE WEBSITE! SMASH HTML CODE!

Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2005 3:37 pm

why not just use a webforwarded subdomain, like sbtb.poppycockcircus.com?

Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2005 4:17 pm

And how would that work, Internet?

Use layman's terms, please - you've seen me try and use you before.
