    Yes.

    (That's not sarcasm. I use them both, there's advantages of doing so: I primarily work on www, since my worker stuff handles my panda scripts and overwatch. And www has the most userscripts friendly to it.)

    No joke, when I worked in the city, people would ask where I grew up and I said "Upstate New York" and they were all like "Cool, so...white plains?"

    No. Not White Plains.

    Pretty much me too. Got in March of last year... made like $100 bucks in six weeks said eff this... then stumbled into this den of iniquity in early December and actually started turking. Eventually worked my way into a good closed qual and now my numbers look terrible because it's the only hits I do but I'm earning more now than ever.

    When they're posting different GID's like crazy I run them like a search panda.

    Otherwise, I'm usually just running their 1.12 GID until OW alerts me of the others.

    CD Error: Dynamic Secret Parameters Missing (This message should not appear when your Qualtrics survey is viewed starting from a launched Mechanical Turk link)
    If you do not see your secret code then do the following:
    Input your entire URL found in the address bar into the textbox below and click submit" Got this after submitting a survey -_-

    I mean sure.. but it is also one of the lowest rated anime on my list. That is less to do with it being really bad and more to do with the fact that most of the anime I watch is actually really good because I normally avoid watching the meh stuff lol

    O HAI! I didn't see your intro post. Welcome to the Hub, fellow Pennsylvanian!

    I'm from Philadelphia here. Right on the city border with Bucks County. I can almost throw rocks at Bensalem.

    I repeatedly met people in college who would try to pass off living in Jersey as living in NYC. And then people who lived in some central part of the state saying they lived in NYC, this always backfired when I was around, and I guess they just didn't imagine running into someone from NY at a college in SC? I mean, it's a big enough university with a good bit of out of state students, but I guess people want to sound cool or something?

    An actual conversation I once had went like this:

    Douche canoe in my class who liked to brag about how Clemson was his backup and he was too good for it: Yeah, well, growing up in NYC makes you so cultured, it's hard to really get into any of the music scene here.

    Le Me: You grew up in NYC? Interesting, what borough?

    DC: Hoboken

    Me: YOU FILTHY BRIDGE AND TUNNEL LYING ASSHAT! You're from Jersey! SHUT YOUR LYING MOUTH!

    This did NOT go over well with the womens he was trying to hit on.
