Hello All, Welcome to #2 of this 2 part series. I forgot what the **** it was called, so just pretend that YOU remember and don't need it.I had a 'conversation' today with ____ ____ over AIM (this is not all aimed at [unnamed guy] BTW)
I've decided that I'm tired of PEOPLE
I'm tired of the aforementioned Windozers, and I'm tired of these people who are always the **** making fun of Microsoft and PC makers.
I am a PERSON, and I WILL NOT lower myself to levels like that.
I am going to stop calling ANY computer company by ANY kind of wrong name.
Crapple,
Gay Tway
CumPac
AitchPEE
Mordor$oft
iPolk
etc etc etc
Because I am the F*** tired of PEOPLE who are like kyle, and anyone who calls PC makers, and other companies by STUPID Aliases like that.
IT BUGS THE S*** OUT OF ME.
What else is bugging me? and OH is there more! OH IS THERE MORE!
I like Microsoft Products. I like PCs and IBM clones and the companies that make the products that make the world turn around.
When set up properly, and used correctly, nearly everything Microsoft has created works grandly.
Even Microsoft Word 6 for Macintosh. I Don't know WHAT the deal is with that but it's always worked for me.
I always try to be objective when I'm evaluating things and I guess that it doesn't work flinging out insults to companies like that... From now on I'm going to call each company by it's proper name, including proper capitalization where prefferable (EX: eMachines, not emachines)
TOLERANCE
Is a VERY important part of our world. America is now tolerating Iraq. In America, white people tolerate "everyone else" Germans now don't want to kill all Jews...
Tolerance is a part of the world where people and people are concerned, but I haven't seen too many "computer tolerant" People...
I can't give a definition of computer tolerant, except "tolerant of ALL Computers..."
I also can't say if I'm completely computer tolerant I won't try either.
I don't know really about anyone else here... but I like Apple's Products... WHY ELSE would I have a TiBook GHz???? and really... as a company... I think that Apple's doing OK...
PC users don't complain when they can't get good help from their company.... that's why internet groups like this exist... so many people dont even call apple anymore, but rather head straight here or to MAF or other places...
WHY the F*** do people whine and complain when a business does what it needs to do to make money?
Some people have bad luck with their computers...
If something breaks, and you can't get the bloody F***ing thing to work, or stop breaking then you have a bit of a clue don't you? You stop using the bloody thing.
One person I know... HASN'T stopped using the bloody thing. an iBook.
He called it iCrook for quite awhile... now he calls it iBork...
The thing I understand is that he doesn't like it, no, he hates it
the thing I don't undertand is that he keeps using the fscking thing....
Yes, I had a discussion tonight with one of what I call a "windozer", I lost my lid. It just blew away... no extreme pressure of anything... I can't quite explain what happened... but I can explain some of what led up to it... that is what this 2-topic series is supposed to be.
I have done my very best, to ensure that this post includes everything that my thoughts include of today.... I try to have used good English and Grammar/Spelling, but I am not sure if that happened. I don't want to publicly flame any individual person on a public scale... that is why I have an AIM account (sorta)
I simply, am tired of the way that *mostly all people* act... I can't think of a single one of us at the MLA who hasn't poked fun of a PC vendor, or flamed out a PC user once... or something else... I'm going to try not to continue anything like that... It's one thing to be a respectful citizen, someone upstanding who uses macs and is proud of it.
It's another thing to be a jerk.
Some people are jerks. Some people are not.
I would like you to know, that I am a person who has his values, and within the last 2 hours, some will be able to tell you, that I HAVE JUST USED MORE PROFANIEIES THAN I HAVE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.
I consider myself to be a very calm person, and am generally able to keep my lid on when I have a problem such as this, although some people push it so-very far that... well I'll say I haven't found the lid yet.
The lid, is what gives me energy. Pressure stored under the lid is where I get energy... that's somewhat of how I operate... the lid is now gone, and everything is escaping. My thoughts, my verbal cleanliness, my mind and my energy.
thank you for your time and support, as I LOSE MY MIND!!!
and now, a full hour after what point I will usually go to bed, I will click the magical post button. I will release this tarball of thought and slight confusion into the world. Knowing not what will happen because of it, but wishing the effect positive and helpful.
- Peace
Cory Wiegersma

there... it retains the meaning I wanted it to have, while not being offensive.
you remember, that my original intent in having that post, the way it was, was notto have to edit it and make changes later... not that whatever damage might have been done can be magically undone by changing a name....
