Man I hate registrations :)

  1. I finally did it. I'm high, and I've been browsing these forums for a few hours now. I kept putting off registering despite wanting to reply many times, because registration processes are such a pain when you're stoned.

    First you have to laboriously type your name again for the ten millionth time in your life. Then you have to type an invisible password TWICE without making any errors on either attempt. Simple enough is the part where you type your email, but again you have to do it TWICE.

    Then comes the notorious captcha. A string of letters, numbers, and symbols, that based on the site may or may not be case sensitive, may or may not spell words, and may or may not actually contain characters that resemble the letters they represent.

    Seemingly lastly comes the dreaded checkboxes. Everything from potentially winning a free cruise, to getting a weekly newsletter, to selling your soul to the devil for half price. Which one's are checked that I don't want? Which ones are not checked that I do want? Hrmm....that half price deal sounds kinda good....

    Finally, you click submit. The gears start to grind, the internet does something I will never understand, and blam, my registration is complete.

    Pending I go confirm in my email....

    I am not logged into....my email....

    New tab, type in the web address, type in my user name and password (xyz.xyz.1 -- Oh I meant xyz.xyz.2 -- Dammit! .3", wait for it to load, click inbox....and....."Well maybe it's in my spam folder". Click Spam, and crap..... This might take a second. While I can rule out anything with the word viagra, I have no idea what this damn confirmation email looks like.

    It's such a process when you're high :)

    But glad to be here. Love this place so far!
     
  2. Enjoy yourself here, I sat down here blazed an hour ago and just relized it was 9:30 lol
     
  3. Haha, on the bright side, most new browsers have auto-fill functions. The stoner's best friend. Cause I know what you mean man. It's definitely a bitch every time having to register for somewhere.
     
  4. Well put!
