What's on your mind?

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

(Sorry, I couldn't resist. It's a line from The IT Crowd.  )

Smash it with a hammer.

Good idea  

It's a good stress reliever.  The other option is tea.   But for you to drink not the computer.  
Cheese is good too.  

Well, at least Schaub is consistent .....  

I was just going to ask for help with cleaning it out since there's so much junk on it and it runs slow. I would just wipe it clean but I don't have one of those.... erm 'wipe-it-clean discs' lol xD

The basic thing you can use is Disc Cleanup, to get rid of temporary files and crap like that. Also you can go to "Uninstall a program" on the Control Panel, get rid of any programs you don't need.

Assuming you have a PC, of course.

Im not good with technology in general, but I think tech is scared of me. It acts up, I smack it. I think at some point it learns, be bad, you get smacked.

I can fix my computer when it acts up usually, but I believe its because of fear. It knows what I do when it slightly annoys me, it is terrified of finding out what will happen IF it annoys me to much and for too long.  

Before you wipe your drive though, make sure you have a restore disc or you will wish you hadn't.

I had one for general use after mine would no longer read, then I changed motherboards with a generic set of restore discs. I bought a motherboard from the same model of computer so logic said. Generic discs, same model motherboard should be a breeze to restore. Logic failed, then I had the fun task of tracking down Windows XP (I refuse to use that Mac wanna be Windows 8.  I have a PC cause I HATE Macs... HELLO! ) then the fun task of installing windows and tracking down drivers just so I could get sound working.   Computers anger me.

Well, I reckon it's time to take another break from the forum. I think I just annoy people here more than anything and it's more active when I'm gone. So ya'll have some fun and I'll see you guys around

? I see no evidence of annoyance...

Yeah what she said....what??



You really have to start second guessing your feelings towards certain things and stop making assumptions which probably aren't true.

Thanks Strider. I'm doing that at the moment And I do have a PC. Windows 7 to be exact.

Toro- I've never even heard of a restore disk o.o I did back somethings up on my flash drive so I hope that helps. You sound much more educated in computers than I ever would be. All I know is how to do is turn it on and type

Saucy: Don't leave!! D: I think you're really funny and entertaining! I'm sure no one finds you annoying; you sure don't annoy me

thank you for the kind words ya'll. Just another flash of weakness on my part I'm fighting off. I won't leave...just maybe for the night and do some writing to get my mind off things.

Was it in regards to the Halloween debate? I'm still confused.

No no no.  I just sometimes feel hated or like I annoy ya'll or annoy everyone really.  Just part of the junk I'm trying to overcome and always feeling like I'm in the way. I'm sorry.

Man I really thought I had overcome October being my bad month finally, but I guess not. :/

Ah I gotcha. I used to deal with those feelings a lot. Meds helped me a lot with that, but also you have to give people a chance that they say what they mean. Meaning when someone says "No, you're not annoying me" you can't give into that feeling that wants to make you think they're lying to you. You have to actually believe what they say and second guess the way you've allowed your brain to think for so long. The more you do it, the better at it you'll get. It takes a while.

What's on my mind. My cat thinks it's okay to try to sit on my lap when I'm using my laptop. now my laptop is on the side of the chair.. I hope it doesn't fall.  

Also.. saucy I'm probably the only annoying one on here.

after all this is my favorite smily on here.           

Really, the only annoying person on here is... well... um... okay, no one.

Busy week, Sharon! I'll understand if you can't carve out time to talk to us...

What I'm thinking about:

- The upcoming work week.
- My mom's health. She's getting over a cold, but the antibiotic she took is still upsetting her stomach.
- A neat astronomy app I just downloaded on my iPhone.
- Oldies on the radio.
- A particularly insightful dream I had this afternoon.
- The laundry.


And as Miss Spaulding's post reminded me...

- The dentist. I'm overdue for a cleaning, and my wisdom teeth need to come out ASAP.
