hi,

erm okay. this may sound weird.. one day i decide to open up my raid array to the network. whats in my raid array? about 140gb of anime. i dont normally do this due to leechers. i hate them. they just take take take and dont give back. but that one day, i left guest unpassworded. [note that i am on a campus dorm network]. So im playing cs [counterstrike] at a friends dorm and i decide to remote desktop in and check my email. then there was a email saying that she felt back for taking and not giving back. and so more emails were exchanged and i got her aim sn. then about 3 weeks later of "anime sharing" .. u know, i've talked ot her alot now and she apparently likes computers alot and even "configured" her own dell with RDR and whatnot[and thats pretty funny i think]. and she was bitching how winME was crashy and blah. so it got around to the fact that i know alot and she wants me to teach her. then yesterday her friend IM'ed me and told me she wants to tag along. so i have 2 girls coming to my dorm which i havent met yet at all and i have no freaking idea what to teach. rofl.. >_<


edit: update "went to dinner" : scroll down..

edit2: what kind of topics should u talk about when theres nothing to talk about? i have 2 computers taht require winxp installations and that means 45minutes at least at looking at each other >_< helpz me. and no porn jokes. and no asking for pics. =)

tell them about the HARD drive and insist that a FLOPPY drive is no good. don't forget to mention the keySTROKES and make sure you teach them about RAM in the slot. :D

(jeebus i need to get out) in all seriousness, just go with the flow. ask them what they want to know...teach them what they want to know.

So you have two girls coming to your place and your thinking about the computer.... hmmmm.....
Actually i don't know what to tell them though. I would guess that some simple tips might be helpful, like geting rid of excess temp files that you don't need and defraging.

<< oh yea before they come, this is what I suggest you do:

1. Open IE
2. Tools -> Internet Options
3. Delete Cookies and Files
4. Content tab -> Auto Complete
5. Clear Forms and Passwords

Make sure they don't see your GGW collection ;)
:xLo

LOL, it wouldnt be a bad idea to clear out your recently viewed documents either, in case you have been watching more than just anime.

Tell them you work best in front of nude or partially clad women..*hint hint*

Show em morpheus if they don't already know..

Sounds like they know alot already though if they were able to find your hentai anime collection

Best bet is to tell her to ditch winME though and got with 2k or xp...and tell them about ATOT as well...

You can talk about viruses, importance of a virus scanner, how to keep it updated, not opening attachments in email, knowing how to check the full file name of an attachment, knowing what extensions are dangerous to open (.pif, .scr, etc.) and which are safe (.jpg, etc.), disabling Windows Scripting Host on their machines, setting up security in the browser, blah, blah.

Isn't there some virus that spreads through AIM? (I don't use IM programs so I'm not sure)

That ought to take at least an hour.

If you run 2000 or XP, make sure you log on to your 'Dr. Jekyll' account instead of 'Mr. Hyde' account where you do your unwholesome computing;).

Ask them what they do with their computer.

<< I think this has nothing to do with computers :D. >>

heh, maybe


<< Install Win2000 on her computer and she will LOVE you >>

yeah im helping her backup her stuff over network to my hard drives but shes scared that "easy cd creator 4" wont be compatible with winxp, which it isnt.


<< tell them about the HARD drive and insist that a FLOPPY drive is no good. don't forget to mention the keySTROKES and make sure you teach them about RAM in the slot. >>

heh, i'll keep that in mind.


<< she's coming over for more of that hentai anime >>

none of that on my hard drives


<< show them how you can take pics of them and post them on ATOT for all the world to see... >>

/me thinks of leaving the webcam on...


<< Man, you are one lucky guy! >>

or a really unlucky one. and YES im sure they are girls.


<< Don't stare at her breasts. >>

i'll try not to and instead, i'll stare at her ass

thanks all who gave a valid response.

it doesnt matter what you teach.

this isnt about computers this is about her checking you out and having her friend confirm or deny her thoughts.

if everything checks out okay she will proceed with the being interested in you.
