» Oldies vs Computers
what all this then
a few months after leaving home and leaving behind my fully working Pc and getting a brand spanking new one for myself i recieved a phone call then went a bit like this....
mum: i think the pc is broken
me: whats makes you say that??
mum: there is a siren noise and nothing works
me: oh.. sounds like its proper fucked
mum: yeah, what should i do?
me: wait til tomorrow and i will come round and have a look
mum: what about the noise?
me: what do you mean
mum: well its been making the noise for about 2 hours now....
needless to say when the fan falls off a cpu and a heat alert siren goes off and off and off and off the normal thing to do would be to turn off the pc and wait for help..... never mind.
got the pc up and running again with the help of a new fan only for it to get clogged up with "P0rn" that came from no where and crappy programs from a teenage sister....oh the joys of knowing about 'dem com-put-ers

» Unexpected Good Fortune
Xbox 360
I decided to text into one of those "drink this gut rot and spend MORE money on a text and you might win an xbox..." i thought who cares 25p.... plus the £1.50 for the bottle.... i would be crazy to miss out on this.
Get put into the next draw to be checked at midnight. Got tired 5 minutes later and went to bed.... midnight comes and i get a text back thinking its going to be the standard "thanks for the money try again" instead its a congrats you have won a xbox 360 we will contact you soon!
Turn to the other half with glee to wake her up to tell her the good news. after several attempts at "are you AWAKE!!!!!" she finally stires to look at said message and say "i bet its a con go back to bed"
oh how my joy died..... although sure enough a few days later an xbox premium edition turns up at door :-D
woo yay! saved £270!!!! and got to be a smug bastard all day.
never won anything else.... but glad i have an xbox 360 to keep me busy while i wait.. i still wear the headset sometimes... even tho no one talks to me.....

"do you know how to make a hormone?"-dad
"no. how" - guliable old me
"dont pay her" -dad
how we laughed for hours.... espically my girlfriend

» Irrational Fears
Microwaves.....
I hate microwaves.... but it’s not unfounded.
Once at my house and my girlfriends I just looked at the microwave and they both "exploded"(sparked a little but to feel macho im using a dramatic word)
Ever since I can never stay in the same room as one or if I do I try and position myself behind whatever is available.... doors, plates, girlfriends.......
