You now, being a creature of habit. Every morning I wake up, I have my pan ready for eggs, my coffee maker ready. I hit a button, the coffee maker works. The pan, I've had for 3 years or so, it works great. Coffee maker I've had for 2 years or so. Every morning they are the same, and they work.

Why in the fuck when I log online, do I need a damn flash update, every single day? Each time I log on...windows needs updates, virus updates, you need this..update that.

Just make a damn computer that works. Like my coffee maker, and then leave me the fuck alone to use it.

Technology sucks. Not to mention, spill a little coffee on your computer...poof, it's gone. Use it as a boat anchor now, it's worthless. We've gone backwards. Nothing is made to WORK anymore. Nothing made to last. Update this...crash, all gone. You lose.

You should look up "planned obsolescence" and realize that this has all been planned, specifically for you to spend more money . . . to make the economy "grow".

PS - That coffee maker will fail you too.

Awesome chat tonight! Sorry some of you couldn't make it or get on zap (we missed you).
There was singing, guitar playing, herb talk, garden talk, a muscle flexing body builder gal, video and more!
