Sorry, I'm practicing trying to become a lifer. ;) lol j/k.

Im still working on clicking on threads that don't interest in me and thread crapping on them.

So... to make this thread useful. What do you all think of lifers? Honestly. :p It seems to me that vast majority of them are extremely bitter. Maybe it's just the feeling of "power" they kinda get for being such old timers of ATOT and it gets to their head. Share your theories here. :)

The comps been acting sluggish. Too much junk, and programs aren't working right. Gotta format.

I just reformatted this machine on Monday.

Such is the life of a Windows machine.

I just did the dirty deed a little while ago... my computer is perfectly fine for the next little while. :)
Win2K does not need formatting very often in my findings. infact last time I formatted was only because I got a new HDD (my other drive crashed) the install was getting old. but still running fine. I might have still been running it!

Glad I have a second hard drive so backing up is easy :)

huh? What the hell does that have to do with anything?

I just keep my computer clean and organized and I rarely feel the need to reformat.

I didn't mean to offend you.

Being a lifer sucks. You have to listen to Red Dawn all day. Some times, he steals your washroom key, and NFS4 makes you do "wierd" things to get it back.

Like cleaning house, hate doing it, keep putting it off, dread it, when you finally do it, can't find anything.

Agreed, absolutely hate it.

I'm getting a seriously strong sense of deja vu, that I've seen this exact thread, post for post, a couple of weeks ago... Weird.
