The Dawnguard quest "A New Order" in Skyrim is annoyingly bugged. For the second time, when I bring Gunmar and Sorine to Fort Dawnguard, after entering the fort the gates will raise up but the two characters that I brought with me will spawn behind each gate instead of being right next to me and the gates won't go down even after finishing up their dialogue and using the TCL command to "climb" all the way to the top and talking to Isran won't fix it either.

 

I had to shoot the poor guy twice with a bow while staying hidden to finish the quest and continue. TWICE!

 

E: Another complaint. I can't take a screenshot nor can I raise or lower the sound even though I'm pressing the correct keys. fml nvm. I fixed it finally but for some reason the screenshots doesn't appear. smh

E2: Finally found the screenshots. Stupid things were in my TESV:Skyrim folder - where I installed the game (Desktop > TESV:Skyrim folder > The Elders Scroll: Skyrim - The Legendary Edition folder).

 

Now I can have fun with proving that I actually own the f*cking game.

May not be an old guy... but there is one thing that bugs me and makes me feel like an old geezer that does not get the times. I will never understand the appeal of sites like BuzzFeed that is trying to be there to not only be a voice for the people from different backgrounds, but also give out live advice. I get that that stuff is okay and has its purpose, but it is hard to take those sites seriously or even respect them in my eyes thanks to falling prey to being nothing but nasty clickbait with little to no substance to its title. All of their quote unquote, life advice or articles talking about modern life is common knowledge and it is even more stupid if it is filled with out of place gif files that do not add to the article at all. It baffles me that these mediocre and terrible articles are eaten up by people I know and younger people as a way to say, "Hello world! I am *insert article describing some condition or social label* and I am proud, you will not understand me but this article does!" I am not downplaying that they are proud of an obstacle or even a quirk they have but being subtle and not overblown about it is a better way to make people accepting and understanding of it instead of shoving it in people's faces like a bloody fly.

Sick to death of Supermarkets, their customers and their lazy arsed staff (This invariably includes their linked Petrol Stations as well)

Going supermarket shopping is not a social gathering. It is not fun. Infact it is tedious and expensive so why do the over 50's treat like a Bingo Hall and stand there in the centre of the f****** isle chatting abut either

1. Their health - No one give a sh*te about your Haemorrhoids, especially not by the Cheese counter so piss home and talk about it there

2. Their family. - Once again, no one actually gives a sh*te about the troubles your loose daughter may have with her f*cktard shaven head partner or your vermin grandchildren so again, why it is being discussed by the alcohol section is beyond me....

 

The Staff

Do you have to shuffle around looking miserable while generally getting in everyone's way being unhelpful talking about what happened in your inane social life the previous evening'?. Most of us have either 1. Drunk alcohol before and 2, done this activity in a social gathering so there is no requirement for you to repeat the events in full detail. Also, food is clearly labeled so it beggers believe that you can put the food on the wrong shelf. It is this evidence of lack of concentration on the most menial of tasks that implies that you only work in a supermarket if you have an inability to read or just be consciously aware of exactly what your job role is. either way, find a new job.

 

Supermarket Petrol station staff

Are you trying to be moronic on purpose? When a queue of 10 people forms to pay for their fuel, open both f*cking tills!. Dont let Maureen with her hairy lip carry out a pointless inventory of the chocolate biscuits when you are busy. Employment is not care in the the community. If she does not like dealing with the public, then tell her to find another job.

Also, STOP INSTRUCTING ME WHEN I SHOULD PUT MY PIN NUMBER IN WHEN I PAY BY CARD!. I can read simple instructions on a pay terminal and we have been using Chip and Pin in the UK now for quite some time. Even the Grannies cant use an excuse that they have never used it before as it is pretty much mandatory to have an account for your golden pension to be paid into so if any old trouts says that in the queue in front of you, call bullsh*t on them.

Ah jeez, I am not a huge fan of the current late night hosts, but once in a while, oh man haha, that was hilarious.

 

Reminds me of pool bowling with high jackman, if you don't wanna watch the whole thing, skip to 2:30 and watch the next two mins.

You DONT like Stephen Colbert?

Like, what?

I'm not entirely sure what's funny about that.

 

Or did you really think that country music is exclusive to America?

 

lol cause here in merica, country automatically means your from the south or midwest and a redneck with a hick accent and keith urban is none of the above, plus he's the only country star that i know thats not from merica. Im sure there are probably others out there. I guess its kinda like iggy.. sounds like shes from southwest ATL and talks like shes from sydney

I don't think I'd agree... sure Country started in the CSA, but it's moved to a nation-wide thing. Huge here in Colorado as well as California, Oregon and Washington. I think all states have a pretty high country music base, I just came back from a trip to PA and there were 3 country stations there.

well yeah that is very true. but i think most people who do not listen to country assume it means your a redneck or from the south/midwest.

Damn I hate vampires in Skyrim. I hate everything Undead, and practicality Vampires, but now I hate them even more.

 

I contracted Vampirism from these Vampiric-Drain-Spamming, slut-looking bloodsucking witches three times. THREE TIMES! No way Id join Harkon's gang - Dawnguard all the way.

I'm grumpy because they're making another SLC Punk movie.

 

sh*t is so corny.

Since when have they started making cars that don't have turn signals or require you to light up a smoke before you can start your car?

 

So tired of people not using their turn signals when turning or when people who cant seem to start their cars without lighting a smoke before they turn on their car while making people wait to pull into the only open spot left in the parking lot

Pissed the f*ck off. An app update f*cked my banking code generator up, so now I can't access my bank account online. What is this lunacy?

1. You can activate your SR-1 code generator app by using BankID
2. To use BankID you must use a code generated by the SR-1 code generator

So now I can't access my bank account at all. Good times.

Can you access the full version of your banks website on your phone? I had a similar thing happen a few weeks ago and by going through the full website rather than mobile app/site i was able to get in using my birthdate without using the code generator. You bank might not be set the same way but it's worth giving it a crack

[krashr]

country music is lame, especially australian country music, but especially keith urban. i would also add most aussie rap and hip hop to this category of suck

 

 

nicole kidman is also lame

 

[Jolly Swagman]

^^^

Agree with all that except for BMX Bandits. That's the exception to Nicole Kidmans lameness

(Like how Russel Crowe doesn't seem like a douche lord in Romper Stomper)

Not a fan of country music either, but the Tamworth country music festival is worth a visit. ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

Welcome to Libya.

 

I lost count of how many "ima badass" pre-teen high-on-drug swaghead drivers who don't use turn signals at all. I hate using "highly offensive" cusses IRL but these assholes push me to it.

No, it is the full version I'm using

Why do people in the Online section continually assume that I don't have TES:Skyrim? I mean, its a no-damn-brainer, why would I praise a game if I don't have it anyway? I understand if they were calling me out for "coming to the Online section even though I don't play the game anymore" because its true (Skyrim dragged me away from every game including GTAV SP, and Online is way too broken on LastGen to bother with), but I still love Online, well maybe not as much as I love SA for example, but still.

CL's EP has been pushed back, (rumors) it doesn't make sense because she'a already filmed 2 music videos.

 

I know she's a perfectionist but come the f*ck on, takes the piss.

Been fighting with that Arkay Priest dude from the Dawnguard plug-in for Skyrim. Every time I start a quest that requires retrieving an old Dawnguard item. Asshole kept sending me to Bloodskal Barrow. At first I though this was a bug considering how I don't see any quest markers.....

 

......turns out the targeted barrow is in Solstheim. Which means that I have wasted 6 minutes arguing with the Quickload/Quicksave functions to see if I can get this thing elsewhere. fml

Country isn't bad, but the stuff that they play on the radio in recent time, this new pop country stuff, is utterly abysmal.

I don't even listen to the Radio anymore...There will never be Country like the 80's/90's early 2000's if i wanted to listen to Pop/Rock i'd turn it onto a station that plays it...

 

Thank god for Pandora/Spotify or else i'd just be listening to the wind

 

 

Well, with doctors offices and going to the store, it's kind of impossible to not hear radio music playing.

 

I haven't actually listened to the radio on purpose since middle school.

My pain management doctor always takes forever to come in because she spents at least 30/45 minutes with each patient so whenever i go to her i take my earbuds in with me and listen to music while i browse on my phone.

I've never lived in this type of building before. It's like a big apartment, but it's the size of a three story house.

 

Anyway, they started rennovating something, and the power was cut off for a few hours. Are you supposed to tell your tenants that the power will be off beforehand? I felt like I should have gotten a warning.

[TheMcSame]

So... I was parked up outside some guy's house while I was at college (College in the UK isn't University, they're two different things) and I came back a few hours later, put my bag in the boot, I look to my right to see the guy staring me down. Trust me, I mean staring me down, the sort of look you'd get from a psychopath that wants to kill you.

 

Haven't the slightest clue as to why he was pissed (well he looked pissed). It wasn't like I parked in front of his drive. Some people get so touchy about the smallest sh*t these days.

Some people, generally because they're sad, pathetic loners with more teeth than brain cells, have a propensity towards deciding that all pieces of road near their property must belong to them. I know of people who've had their cars keyed for simply parking outside someone else's house.

 

The correct response is to buy a pack of 20 Wall's frozen sausages (or suitable alternatives) from your local supermarket and return under cover of darkness with a hammer. You then proceed to hammer your chosen porky tubes of vengeance into strategic locations on their front lawn. As the sun rises and the dawn chorus rings out, every scavenging bird or beast in the neighbourhood will descend on their garden and rip it to pieces in an attempt to get to the gradually thawing meaty goodness below.

The only place you can get a passport here in town is at the post office. I call them at least once every hour today for as long as the passport department or whatever it's called is open for, and it cuts right to their voicemail.

Jesus christ, how many people are getting passports today? Or more likely, how many people don't want to do anything there today?
