I own it.
It's in my house. It's not as quite as a mouse. But with graphics that scream, a case so shiny and sexy, a soundcard that deafens, and 2 mils of perplexi... It'll kick your ass. That's right folks. The profoundly, counfoundingly, perplexing expensive and beautiful computer of computer Nerds Dreams is right now sitting at MY house in MY living room. I believe it is most likely the most powerful system in Busselton, at least that I'm aware of. It has the sound and speakers to blind me. And the graphics and monitor to deafen me. But I'll go down smiling. I wouldn't want to bore you with the Specs.. But I will anyway.

Bite me.) PANASONIC 1.44 MB Floppy Disk Drive MITSUBISHI DP92 Diamond Plus 19 inch Digital Monitor (Not gonna attend Lans. Too big, too valuable) VTECH 8870KP4 Pentium 4 Extra Miditower ATX Case 350W PSU (Pretty. Silver. Soon to have a hole in the side.) Mmmmm. GeForce4... Sigh... So far, I've played a little of Dronez, which came bundeled with. But I'm having some troubels, I believe caused by Windows. So I'll have to fix said troubles, and soon... Ontop of that piece of gaming glory, I will soon posses ADSL if all goes well. Mmmm. Ah.. I'll be able to play some really really nice looking games really really well... Currently I'm getting the USB ADSL modem, but I'm thinking of biting the bullet and forking out extra for the Ethernet one. If you think it's worth it, or have any other pearls of wisdom, drop me a line at Warwiz@iinet.net.au And that, is all I wrote... Boom, Baby. --Kiljoy the rich bitch "If I'm gonna sell my soul to Harvey Norman for barely minimum wage, then I'm gonna use that income to buy a computer to rival some..

The question isn't wether I've ever been uncertain, it's wether I've ever been certain.
Sorry, it sounded so prolific in my head that I had to share that. Well... Time keeps on rolling don't it? This is offically my last year as a Teenager, at least, for the whole year. That's scary. I look around at what I am, what I wanna be, and how I THINK I'm gonna get there... And I'm dumbfounded. It feels like to get from point A to point B, I need to make my brain swim through not-quite-dry-concrete. A lotta days I question me.. I question the world... I question the force of will it takes me to just keep climbing out of bed... And I wonder why I don't have super powers... Heh. Then there's This. My Web Comic. I'm the only person I know who has actually attempted such a thing. And so far, it's sitting in the back of some dank, dark cardboard box that holds all things internet... Unseen, unplayed with.. Un-updated... I could complain no-one bugs me about it anymore. I could complain that Viro refused to scan the last strip I drew. I could complain that I have a small dog crammed up my... Exhaust pipe. But I won't. Don't Ask isn't dead, yet. Someday I'll find the time and style that allows for regular updates... Someday. But for now I have a little over an hour till I have to leave the comfort of my own home, parade around under stage lights that could boil a cup of coffee and try and entertain an audience full of people who are paying for the chance to see me screw up. *Sigh* That's showbiz... Maybe someday I'll be a big enough star to dictacte when and how I work. For now I'm unpaid, wearing a fake moustache.. And I'm expected to shave and provide my own gel.. Which costs me something like a cent a ml... Well, this wasn't the upbeat rendition of me being callously funny that I hoped it might end up being. But that's life... Now I'm gonna go try and cheer up a depressed friend. Boom, baby --Kiljoy the Scorerboy "The truth is, I never even knew my name. Just my label." Some poem I wrote, some time ago ==/BeginPost== |
