When Technology Fails....

[Starblayde]

As my PC has just restarted itself... Of it's own accord i just wondered... When has technology fail you guys at the most inopportune moments?

But face it, if it wasn't for geeks like Bill Gates, then geeks like us wouldn't be here

I laugh when I remember people telling me as a child that "computers don't make mistakes!"

Your problem is most likely a failing power supply, though, not anything created by Bill Gates.

Hmm, I recall my computer rebooting itself once. I was right in the middle of downloading a rather lengthy porno movie too. Lost like 3 hours of downloading.

Another time was when I was trying to burn an audio cd and the music was filled with pops and scratches. That pissed me off.

People make mistakes and in the same token, computers are made by humans.

Ummmm...no.

Sometimes I can go a whole day and not mention catsup/ketchup tho.

Domo arigatou for the compliment of my av.

Domo arigatou

*Wracks brain*

[Tyrael]

Err..basically it means "thanks".

 

[Starblayde]

Prego

How old are you two? Tyrael and Starblayde, I mean.
I'm just being nosy, so ignore me if you wish.

Ketchup? I'm not sure I want to know.
Yeah, I do.

 

[Starblayde]

I'm 19....does the Generation-X sarcasm show through too much?

 

[heterotic]

I thought Prego meant Spaghetti sauce...

 

[Tyrael]

I prefer Ragu.

I was 25 the last time i checked

Like I said, just being nosy. I rarely ask questions.
I'm amused, though. Danke.
