Be Careful on the LIE on Sundays
Sunday, August 24, 2008 Comments (1)
I got rear-ended on my way home on the LIE this morning. Stupid people merging in front of me STOPPED while blocking 2 lanes (entrance ramp and outside lane). I don’t even want to get into how stupid and incredibly dangerous it is to be at a full stop while blocking traffic that’s going 50-60 mph. I couldn’t switch lanes so I had to stop. I had to slam on the brakes a bit and I stopped but I just knew I was probably going to get rear-ended. I immediately look into my rear-view mirror and BAM.
My Sassy Girl (English Remake) Sucks
Saturday, August 23, 2008 Comments
I just watched the 2008 remake of My Sassy Girl and it totally sucked. If you don’t know, My Sassy Girl is a South Korean romantic comedy that came out in 2001 and was immensely popular throughout Asia. The remake doesn’t compare AT ALL to the Korean version. The remake is worse in every aspect. The people who produced this movie clearly didn’t understand what made the original so great. If you’re going to watch this movie, watch the Korean version. I don’t have time to go into details right now but I’ll probably make a more in-depth review another time.
EZPass Website User Interface is Horrible
Monday, August 11, 2008 Comments (1)
Man, who designs these crappy user interfaces for government websites? I’ve never seen a NY government website with a decent user interface. The EZPass account area is really bad. The design is really dated, the sections aren’t organized, and the links aren’t labelled well. It’s not intuitive at all - an interface is bad when you basically have to click every link to see where they go and hope you find what you’re looking for.
