the hunt

!@#$*&ing capitalism.

here's what I'm doing: I'm on woot, constantly refreshing the main page due to the wootoff. thousands of people everywhere are doing the exact same thing I'm doing now: sending mass amounts of HTTP GETs to the woot servers, bogging them down and clogging the internets. also, I'm inadvertently massacre-ing mass amounts of time just waiting for someone to buy the current cheapo, useless item just to see what's next, doing nothing but pounding the refresh button as I do so.

[refresh]
grrr....
[refresh]
buy the thing, dammit!
[refresh]
yay!!!.... aww, do not want....
[refresh]
boo....
[refresh]
repeat ad nauseam.

all the while, I'm skipping out on having dinner, sleeping, homework, and anything productive. yay capitalism...

再見.
