Received a free laptop today :)
« on: April 08, 2012, 02:49:28 am »
It's a long complicated story but I'll give you a brief overview.  My friend has severe OCD problems and he thinks that all of the stuff in the trunk of his car is dirty (he thinks it's contaminated with AIDS).  He was going to throw everything in his trunk away but I told him if he threw away a perfectly good laptop I'd kick his ass.  So we met up, I cleaned the stuff he was gonna throw away (it's obviously not infected with AIDS but since he's crazy he feels a little better if I wipe all the stuff down with windex and wet wipes, it's part of the OCD, btw cleaning the stuff took me about an hour, he's crazy so I have to do it in a certain order and a certain way).

After all was said and done I walked away with a laptop, two IT books, and a new pair of jumper cables.

I'd congratulate you if I didn't suddenly hate you

ohhhhhhhhhhhh, I assumed you thought I was talking negatively about my friend (which I'm not, we're very good friends).

Nope. I just got my own laptop for the first time in my life a few weeks ago. Fucking cats broke my screen so now I have to get a new one....I would love to have someone give me theirs. Enjoy yours  ;D

Lol:
