Ladies and gentlemen, this is possibly Kate Bush‘s finest performance. As for Atkinson, he gives Bobby Bittman a run for his money, and Tom Jones better hang on to those panties while he can. This man is a clear contender for the tawdry crown of lounge lizardom.
There’s only one appropriate reaction to this, and Hillary Clinton knows what it is.

This is it.
No, really. That’s it.
You’re welcome.
Another classic of the interwebs. Why do I like doing tech support? It’s for moments like this.

Jun 17, 2012, 6:04 PMI HATE YOUR STUPID SIGHT!!!!! I have wasted an entire day trying to set up at stupid blog. Set one up on Blogger in five minutes. Can’t modify the theme, paid for a domain that I can’t access, paid to have domain hosted elsewhere, still can’t access theme modification through your dashboard, have an IQ of 140 and spent 15 years as an it professional. PUT SOME ONE ON THE PHONE.
Blog url: http://IALREADYDELETEDIT.We are mostly volunteers here in these forums. Staff does look in to answer questions/help with problems we volunteers cannot do anything about. It does no good to shout at us: we only want to help.
New WordPress bloggers can learn quite a bit from this tutorial:http://learn.wordpress.com/
You should also be aware that there are different kinds of wordpress:

The support documentation is very good and taking a little time to search it will be of value as you learn to use this platform. Here are other support docs about CSS here on wp.COM:

IQ of 140 in base 5?
I HATE YOUR STUPID SIGHT!!!!!
Well, in spite of my high IQ, I know I’ve made my fair share of spelling mistakes.
Being intelligent is no guarantee that one can know everything instantly, and blaming others is not productive in the pursuit of skills.
You’ve been a part of WordPress for four weeks, and you’ve had all of this frustration building up, but this is only the second time you’ve asked for help.
If you really want help, we could probably get you moving in the right direction… otherwise, you sound like a perfect candidate for a Blogger blog.
Tess, that is not a 140 IQ. I have a 140 IQ. If we treat liars with the same respect we treat normal people, there’s no disincentive to lie.
136… but I smoked a lot of weed when I was a kid, so I might have started off at 140.

Jun 18, 2012, 1:01 AMI have no idea what my IQ is and could care less, and I’ve never stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.
I like cheese.
I like turtles.

Jun 18, 2012, 1:57 AMTurtles. We have turtles. Nice ones. The Green Sea Turtles (Honu in Hawaiian). They are fun to snorkel with although you aren’t supposed to get too close since they are an endangered species (much like honest, caring politicians). Still, they are magnificent.
Rain, I won’t dispute the OP about his or her IQ number. That statement may or may not be true.
I’ve met some (supposedly) smart folks who have no idea how to do anything practical, whether from lack of patience or effort. It’s a poor craftsman who blames his tools. The OP’s frustration is understandable, so I merely pointed out that he/she could avail herself of the resources here rather than expending energy on blame.
BTW I laughed at base 5…

Jun 18, 2012, 1:58 AMThe turtles are magnificent, not the dishonest, uncaring politicians. I thought I should clarify.
I am thinking about chocolate pecan turtles: If there were any in the pantry they would be very endangered…

Jun 18, 2012, 2:09 AMMmmm, chocolate pecan turtles….
Nobody who has actually worked in IT for over a decade expects DNS changes to be instantaneous. Or doesn’t know how to use the simple support forum.

Jun 18, 2012, 4:28 AMMy IQ is 110. I’m a dumbo then. Lol. Why is the OP rattling about IQ anyway. I agree with Tess. I too have met some very intelligent people who are complete numpties when it comes to anything practical.
Erm, what is “Base 5” ?

Mucho thanks to Golden Retriever cross Murkin here for taking a bullet for me in demonstrating how cats typically react to me, him, and everyone else who couldn’t give a rat’s ass if all the feline world dropped off the face of the earth tomorrow. Dude, better you than me, but I pity you, I really do.
Ask Michael K over at Dlisted put it (better than I ever could have):
The feral cat’s name is Thomas O’Malley Flufferpants (I can’t with that name). A big-hearted foster family took him in and he almost immediately got sweet for the family’s dog Murkin. To say that Murkin isn’t feeling cuddly for Flufferpants is an understatement. Murkin is the Penelope to Flufferpants’ Pepé Le Pew. Stay with Murkin’s face while watching the clip and you’ll see a priceless gallery of side-eyes, sighs, roll eyes and emotions that range from “THIS bitch again?” to “I should really look into building a water moat around me.” I haven’t seen such an obvious display of MEH for pussy since Richard Gere kissed Jodie Foster in Sommersby.
Poetry. Sheer poetry.
Technicolor Yawning Skull
We all know how important music is to Goths and to parties, so let’s open our rusted cabinet of curiosities and haul out some truly horrifying tunage, shall we?
First up, Diamanda Galas performing the Litanies of Satan live. For those of you who are not familiar with the artist, I will just say I was at a concert of hers where at one point she synchronized the throbbing of her screams to the flashing of the strobe lights. Not exactly sing-along stuff.
Now, a little tune from Sopor Aeternus with images from the 1999 silent film “Begotten,” my favorite review of which said, “Begotten makes Eraserhead look like Ernest Saves Christmas.” And you can see why.
And lastly, we conclude with that insufficiently-discovered vocal treasure, Jan Terry, and her 1994 tune, “Get Down Goblin.”
Lyrics over the jump. And you may wish to, if you’ve listened to this.
