Yep, heard about it vaguely somewhere.
@richardlitt So what did you end up doing with the dog toys?
@lljk he sent in a support request and we canceled his order for him because he doesn't even have a dog.
@JonT it's true. I don't.
@richardlitt You need to start a topic so your page isn't so empty.
@richardlitt I want you to know how amusing that email was first thing in the morning.
@richardlitt The danger of ecommercing drunk, I suppose.
Just want to say that as a developer I've long perscribed to "The User Is Drunk", and that I've been a fan of your site @richardlitt for a short while. Loved the review, and it looks like the site implemented changes for just about all of your gripes. Nice work everyone.
@festercluck Thanks!
Except, you removed the parts he called impressive? Why get rid of the Forum filters?!
@festercluck Found them. Liked them where they were before though. So did @richardlitt . I'm betting if he tested fresh again, they'd be hard to find.
@festercluck Everything in iterations - we're still working on this aspect in particular.
I should start a service "The User is A Senior Citizen." Or better yet, a drunk senior citizen. Drugged senior citizen?
@Teripie The user is near death.
@festercluck The user double clicks EVERY link.
@Teripie @shawn the user sends emails with subject lines that say FWD: FWD: FWD: RE: RE: RE:
@JonT And this little piggy (er...user) went RE: RE: RE: RE: all the way home.
the user my facebook please remove this post, love Grandma
@Teripie I basically did this: theuserismymom.com. Not as viral as the user is drunk, at all.
@festercluck This is by far my favourite variation so far.
So @richardlitt, has anyone charged anything exciting on that credit card yet?
Aww, my dogs were in the second video! Also, you must have really good fraud protection if that was your real CC #.
@PurplePawprints It was probably a temporary burner number that was only authorized for charges from a specific source. Citibank had a hard-on for that for a while. I imagine they were copying Amex.
@JerseyFrank I didn't even know that was such a thing! Thanks for teaching me something today.
@PurplePawprints Back when there was more of a wild west vibe on the 'net, I used it all the time to safeguard against potentially careless or malicious sites. And for porn.
I'm disappointed @richardlitt never clicked the meh logo on the homepage. If he had, he would've been able to get to the not-so-secret waiting list purchase page for sold out items that become available (e.g., when another drunk user writes in to cancel his tiny helicopter order because his shrink ray is malfunctioning).
@JerseyFrank Oh noes. Functionality change means my joke will never reach its conclusion :(
So now I know this is a thing, and an awesome thing at that.
I drunk test meh at least once a week.
