Roommate used my computer today to load songs onto her phone since I have PC and she has a Mac. I DID say she could use it, I just assumed I would be able to supervise her in the process.

...I was at work when she did this. I wasn't home, and she touched my fucking computer.

THIS IS FUCKING WAR. AFTER HERBERT NOBODY NOBODY NOBODY TOUCHES MY COMPUTER WITHOUT ME STANDING OVER YOUR SHOULDER.

:walken:



The fact that you don't have your computer password-locked is passing strange.

I TOOK OFF THE FUCKING PASSWORD BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT I COULD ENJOY FREEDOM FOR A LITTLE WHILE WITHOUT HERBERT BREAKING INTO MY SHIT BUT I GUESS I WAS WRONG.

It's clear. Password is changed and everything is locked up again though.

Lucky you.  The things I do with peoples email accounts are vile, and always end in tears.

And though some of them are slow learners, everyone around me makes certain to lock the computer before they leave the room.

At least you're creative. 'Round these parts, the only thing we have to fear (and fear it we do) is the Meatspin Game.

I don't think they're that smart. Female roommate runs her own business doing fine art giclee out of the basement, I've had to help her fix something more often than not, and apparently her husband is some sort of computer nerd, well, he was doing it WRONG.

She went to school for architecture and tries to be a graphic designer. I actually went to school to do what she does and just go down there and fix her problem when she's not looking to get her to stop whining at her husband.

Also, I have a PC, and they have Macs, and they like to go on and on on how much "cooler" they are than me. If Macs are so user fucking friendly, she'd never be crying every time something fucks up.

Macs are better for design type stuffs, but then again, any computer is only as good as the person who knows how to use it correctly. That goes for Linux spags too. Because if I tried to run Linux at the expense of being "cool", it wouldn't be, because I wouldn't know what to do.

Bitch at me all you want for using a PC in your hipster computer speak. But I know how to use a PC, and know how to use it WELL. Therefore, it works for me.

Email I just got:

J: "C says that she's going to fencing practice tonight with or without you because she wants to see everyone."

Right, because the only friends she has is my friends, and now I have to make sure my fencing instructor doesn't blab about the move in front of her, because then it'll all be blown.

I can't wait until Friday afternoon, "Oh by the way after work I'm headed up to Boston to catch a bus to Burlington, so no need to pick me up. Be back Monday afternoon. Bai."

If anyone asks, I'm staying with a friend that goes to UVM.

I am seriously reaching a boiling point with these people. If they show up here uninvited, which indeed they may as they are the two most socially stunted people I have ever met (I'm in the SCA, but they make the population on the whole look like Dean Martin), I will indeed flip out in a fashion that NONE OF YOU HAVE EVER SEEN.

It's called invasion of privacy you dunces! Learn to give a man his space, if I want to be smothered I'd wrap a plastic bag around my head and turn on a little Blue Velvet.

The constant emails.
The desperate attempts to keep me under their thumb.
This ends now.

Enzo (fencing instructor) made sure to keep quiet. I also have an emergency sanctuary at his house if it gets too bad.

Also, got GS a phone today on my plan cause it was free.  I can actually keep track of him now. Bwua.

I don't have mine locked either, but then I don't have crazy stalker housemates.
