Computers are even more fun.

"Dan? I need you to order me a new hard drive."

"The hell you say... that's a new machine I just built it up from a disk image, hardware and software should be sound."

"Yeah? Well I just tried to boot up and it can't find any operating system!"

Walk over to desk, press the floppy disk eject button, problem resolved.

People find computers annoying... but computers find people more annoying. Blue screens are binary cussing.

I had the same issues with my iPod when I first got it.
Figured it out in about 5 minutes though.
It really isn't that complicated. You just need to sit there, read, and follow instructions closely.

I hate having to reset mine when it freezes up though. You gotta press and hold so much crap just to reboot it. Sad

Don't forget the occasional kernel panic for us Mac people. No OS is perfect.

Yeah, I kinda wanna see how this licking thing works.

And, maybe buddy with the "Karen" is a Dane Cook fan.
