-I'm buying a laptop.
-Pah, a laptop? You want a desktop.
-Buying??? A real man builds a desktop.
-Builds it? Anyone worth anything builds from barebones.
-Barebones is for n00bs. I hand solder the whole thing together.
-Hand solder? You soft shite, I use a blacksmith's forge and a hot piece of iron.
-A hot piece of iron? I should be so lucky - I'm going back to basics and not using fire. I'm just bashing rocks together to get them the right shape.
(still, awesome achievement)
- flannell 16y agoA hot piece of iron? Luxury. We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six in the morning, clean the paper bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down t' mill, fourteen hours a day, week-in week-out, for sixpence a week, and when we got home our Dad would thrash us to sleep wi' his belt. </python>
