Today, the sports team that I was rooting for lost by a point with 2 seconds left, I burned myself on the stove, and I hit a curb, fell, and tore my hands all to hell. Too bad that was all hours before your curse started. Ironically, since it has started, things have been looking up. Made a ton of $, got some packages I wasn't expecting, and got the female sympathy for the burns/cuts that turned out very well 

Keep up the good curse!

How much will it cost me to have you remove the curse? I don't think I can stand having two curses at once.

Its funny, because some idiot is going to stub their toe tomorrow, then read this thread, and be freaked out thinking they are cursed.

I KNOW RIGHT!?!?! Who is stupid enough to distrust, uh, THE GOVERNEMENT? I mean, they are like our protectors, why the hell would they have anything but our best interest at mind? And I think, the one thing thats bad about Bitcoins, is their lack of a well structured banking system like the ones that our countries developed over the course of like, 3000 years.

I guess it depends on whether it was contracted work, or spec work.

If it was a "I will hire you to help me do this, and I will pay you this amount" and you don't pay him for his time, even if he couldn't do what you wanted, thats pretty shitty.

If it was a "Hey, I need help with this, I will pay you an amount we will determine when you have finished the work"

and then he contributes over a short period of time because you decide that you no longer need his help, you do owe him for his time, but that is assuming he contributed something to the project.

If I wanted to set up a site, and then someone draws me a picture of a hippo, I'm not giving them anything.

If I wanted a drawing of a hippo, and they draw me a bad picture of a hippo, I may owe them for their time, but you can feel free to drop their services.

Just imagine how I would be.

Bump + nice looking coins.

EVERYONE STOP BUYING BFL PRODUCTS!

I have undoubted proof that BFL WILL NOT deliver their ASIC products!

The evidence is all in this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=110513.0

And if you don't want to check out that thread, I'll put the most important quote from the thread below.

Oh god please never leave the forums, you are the first thing that has seriously made me chuckle today. If I pay you, will you take away the curse that makes me laugh hysterically until my sides hurt when I read your post?

But on a serious note, I hired mlawrence to protect us with his 15 years experience, so don't waste your time. Where did you want your 200 BTC sent?

Yeah, I was trying to be nice and have you figure it out for yourself, but I don't think beating around the bush will work. There are probably tens of others buying BTC for paypal right now for $12.20 or so per BTC. If you are looking to get Bitcoins, I'd advise going through one of the exchanges. That way, you may end up paying like 5% in fees, but if you are looking to buy with Paypal, especially as a new user, verified or not, you will be paying more than that.

It is very infrequently that bitcoins go for less that "spot" current market value if anything, you are normally going to have to pay a premium to buy Bitcoins with $ that isn't already on an exchange.

If/After Asics start shipping, you will start finding FPGAs very cheap.

Normally if you are paying with Paypal, you will be paying more than the MTGox price, by a bit, depending on how trusted you are.

Mang, you better hurry up. Mush owes me 460.8 Million BTC at this point. It will be 921.6 Million in 7 Hours.

BTC-E requires no photo ID, and no other info. When you sign up, I think it asks for an email account, but you don't have to verify it. The email is just if you want to set up a feature that requires that you confirm in email that you want to withdraw BTC/LTC/NMC/$.

They are based out of Russia though, so that might be the difference?

I will do that as well, but the 1st Post that I subbed will be where I post current status as well.

Not to rain your your parade, but I doubt you will find 10 BTC for less than $120. More likely around $125.

Will you be willing to do sexy services for 5 BTC? And if we are already your friend, now that you are selling your friendy service, does that mean we owe you?

I've got to say, I've been an avid BFL fan for a while. I had maybe a 1% doubt that they would end up screwing people over. I spent many long hours arguing with the idiots that claimed that ASICs were going to be a scam. I just figured, yeah, they over promised as always, they will be a bit less efficient then they claim, and they will make up for it somehow, like when they dropped the BFL Single price. At this point after all things considered, I'm actually at a 50/50 over whether or not I would stick up for BFL, or flame against them. I found the best thing to do is wait, and see how it all turns out. I haven't lost total trust in BFL, but I sure as hell will not be ordering until I start seeing working units ship out, and I suggest that people who feeling like yelling at BFL do the same thing. Sure they messed up big time with nondisclosure of quite a bit of majorly important things, but rather than waste their, and your own time, just wait until they are set to come out. If they come out, buy one if you want, if they don't, don't buy one.

I'm not calling you a liar, misinformed and suborn is a better description. And by me, I mean USPS is. I don't feel it necessary to link to USPS terms again.
There's nothing wrong with spreading a little FUD, but misinforming everyone, and then continuing to stand by your misinformation after a reliable source specifically saying that the info is wrong is a bit whack.

And looking into it more, it actually seems as Coinabul said, Fedex doesn't insure Bullion. http://www.fedex.com/us/service-guide/terms/express-ground/

I'm confused, I thought we established that USPS does insure bullion? Feel free to use Fedex I guess, you are free to your personal opinion, but saying that USPS doesn't insure Bullion is a lie.

- Direct from the USPS website where they say they do insure Bullion

and I believe your response was


As your acknowledgement that they do insure bullion, but you don't think its a good idea.

"Hey, I'm shipping 10 Oz of Silver bullion, I need this insured"
"Alright, we will insure that up to $345"
"Thanks"

I don't know, doesn't seem too stupid to me.
