Well I fix computers for a living and I get this every so many days. I'll have a client come in and they tell me straight up well I got this copy of Photoshop from a friend of mine and it isn't working anymore. I tried to call Adobe for technical support but they said they can't help me. Or, I'll have a client come in and ask about some software and there will be another client just walking by and hear the conversation. The other client will come over and say well hey, I know where you can get that program for free, check out limewire, you can get ANYTHING on there and it's free!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm like, WTF m8???

And then there are the ones who come up to me and say hey, I'm interested in getting a DVD burner, I'd like to copy movies that I rent. How do I go about doing this? I then reply to them and say well, that is illegal. They're like well oh no I mean just copy the movies I have. Then I have to inform them that per the DMCA circumventing copyright protection is against the law. They look at me like I'm some mean dick. It's like dude, this is my job, I'm not going to sit here and give out stupid tips like that and risk being fired!

I question your sexual orientation after reading that. Sounds like you two were flirting, or at least you were.

Seriously though, it's boY, not boi. Even then it should be "BB guy".
