The only time I ever get there anymore is when I misclick on the little white type that says "Spiderweb Software Homepage" instead of the equally small type that says "Forums" when trying to navigate back somewhere on my iDevice.

And even you started multiplying the number of i devices you owned, you'd only end up with one negative device. Not so! If you get four iDevices, you'll have a positive real device, which you can then trade in for an actually useful product, like a computer with Windows instead of a mac!

Unflappable Drayk Nicothodes Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 But the point of owning a computer is to give me things to do other than staring out the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Dantius Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 If you wanted to do useful things, then you really shouldn't get a computer. Games, the Internet, music- they're really just one big distractions. In fact, you can eliminate the computer entirely by instead obtaining a typewriter, an abacus, a slide rule, and a device to manipulate symbols on an infinite strip of paper according to predetermined rules or algorithms!

It's funny, the other day I saw a sign entitled "Avalon" in the same font as the Avadon logo. I did a double take and tried to take a picture, but by the time I had my camera out I had already passed it. Shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
