"Don't make me break my foot off in yo ass!"

[tinhuviel]

That was the catchphrase of the main character in Mad TV's fake sitcom My White Momma. I haven't been awake for very long, and no one has pissed me off or triggered my Inner Sith, but I am still eager for a reason to say it. And then, just the literal thought behind the threat....fucking hilarious. HI-LAIR-EE-USSSS. And a tad uncomfy if you're on the receiving end. Heh.

Today we're paying bills. I'm online earlier than normal so I can take care of one of these bills via the Blessed Holy Intarwebs! Soon soon, I shall be rolling in dough (after penalties, tax, and regular whippings in the yard) and can say for the first time in almost twenty years: "Yea, I am debt free, peoples of the Earth! Debt free and, therefore, truly free! No longer am I a corporate slave! No longer must I answer to The Man! I am freeeeeeee!" And then the soldiers will come get me and transport my sorry liberal ass to Gitmo for to be poked at with hot sticks and generally abused.

Soon I shall be laptop shopping. I need something that will allow me access to the Intarwebs in a wireless capacity. I also need lots of power, space, and whatnot because this is the computer I'll be using for school. So, any suggestions would be most appreciated yo. Once I'm in possession of the new laptop, the one from which I am currently transmitting will go on to Aunt Tudi. I think I'll be setting her up a Live Journal account now so it'll be ready for her when she officially gets online. That way, she'll already have a welcoming party. ;) Yep, that's what' I'm gonna do.

Once Aunt Tudi is set up on LJ, I'll make an announcement here. Then you all must go add her. That's an order!

I keep wondering if I'd freak out your Aunt Tudi for being the Angry Not-so-young Man that I am.

Hm.

[tinhuviel.livejournal.com]

No. She's pissed off herself.

If it weren't cold outside, I'd go run around in the yard all crazy with happiness about your it's-been-20-years-acoming debt-free status!

Yay, Aunt Tudi! :) I eagerly await your announcement!

I've had several laptops and the one I use now is by far my favorite. It's a Toshiba Satellite - I use it for home and school. I've had it since August and I absolutely love it.

As if I could carry on with LJ, knowing she was here, and not add her :)

yay for Aunt Tudi on LJ!! gabba gabba one of us... ^___^

on laptop recommendations: one i can definitely NOT recommend is Averatec's laptops. Fox got one because of its low price and form factor, ie. small and metal. it has two problems that have not been adequately resolved, near as we can tell, in newer models: first, the jack for the power supply failed, prolly due to a crap solder on the inside. a friend ended up taking it apart and monkey-rigging a functional jack so the battery wouldn't die. other people have reported issues with this problem on Averatec's user boards, so it wasn't just Fox's computer. second, these things suffer from overheating problems on the CPU; the vents in the case are inadequate for keeping it cool, so it constantly shuts down from overheating. we have a cool pad under it blowing air into the case, and that keeps it from doing this all the time no matter what Fox is doing, but if he runs a program that requires a lot of processor power, it still tends to shut down periodically. again, a LOT of people have reported this problem. so Averatec? not the bargain they seem.

thanks for the advice. I shall avoid Averatec!

I'll be certain to add her immediately. It'll be fun to compare your different takes on stuff.


Good god! I'd forgotten about "My White Momma", from back when Mad TV was still edgy and funny. Of course the censors got to it in it's second season and started making it as lamo as SNL has become.

OMG!

Aunt Tudi on LJ!

Wheeeeeeeeeeee!
