02/21 - Wacky Wednesday!

When I have kids, I'm just gonna tell them stories that I ripped straight from 80s movies and pretend like they happened to me.

 

damn you to hell, MTurk requesters, I have IRL stuff to do!!!!!!!!!!!1111

 

I don't have much to contribute to this ongoing conversation, but, here is a picture of a meerkat.

 

Oops. Read that wrong. Was talking about American Indians, not people of Indiana.

 

You know all those urban legends? Like the murderer with the hook hand? Dead person hanging from a tree scraping the top of a car?


Oh yeah, that all happened to my dad.

Then we got the internet

Dear Dad,

 

edit:

 

That's a pretty standard contribution around here...you're good.

 

Oh, Dear! That mere meercat looks to hear something near that fills it with fear.

 

lol so does anyone know how i can catch that compensation hit again?

Love coming in here to the seemingly most random things.

I had a comment/observation/question. Anyone had a requester randomly take back a rejected hit? I did like 30 something of the Manoj hits yesterday, and they rejected 3 and I was like shucks, never again and was gonna take it like a (wo)man, but I just looked and they've been reversed, though their comments on the hits are still there.
Just curious if anyone had experience that before.

 

Michael LoweSpending Survey$0.80Rejected

Welp, I def did the survey and paid attention. I get the feeling I accidentally pasted the code from the survey right before it instead of copying the new one.

Let's play: Will the requester actually answer my polite email?

 

Happens to me all the time. Requesters get mega Grinched at over rejections, so half the time you just ignore them and some other schmuck will yell at the Requester until they overturn them all
