This is HotChic, borrowing ZV's computer.

That real friends can be made via "unreal" mediums. Otherwise ZV would be on the other side of the country, I'd never have met him, and he probably wouldn't let me borrow his computer.

Get your ass out of ATOT

Also, I've learned that amdfanboy doesn't ever have any worthwhile come-backs. :roll:

That wasn't a comeback.

Don't worry about him, he's just an asshat.

[*]Size doesn't matter. Ripple, weight, noise, overcurrent protection, and actual sustained power draw do.

i read these forums for humor and to raise my own self esteem when i am feeling low.
you cant make up some of the stuff you guys post, its cute and pathetic at the same time. I like to share posts with girlfriends (although they get mad when they see me browsing the site later).

some of you guys (and girls) are so horribly pathetic, sheltered and uptight it brings tears of sadness and laughter to my eyes. I think the term street smart is an oxymoron of anandtech. Some of the stuff i see posted sounds more like works of akward, repressed (sometimes sexual) fiction. sometimes I wonder if some of the posters can actually be real people (and then i see pics llololol)

There is nothing wrong with being a nerd, I am proudly one myself (albeit just in an attractive disguise). But some of you are really doomed to a life of neffing, and if that makes you happy, go for it.

just know, that you sometimes make me feel better about myself...so for that, i salute you :)

kthx

Learned the world of webhosting (thank you RossMan), php, mysql, photoshop, photography with my Canon G3 which got upgraded recently to a G5. Ideas on what is wrong with my hardware and suggestions, what books I should buy, good deals that allowed me to afford some great stuff. Could go on and on...

ATOT... where everyone is a geeky doofus nerd(including me) but we all enhance our self esteem by poking fun at the ATOT geek... who we always refer to, but never are.

That there is a group of people out there who are willing to attempt to help you with virtually any question or problem you run across, unless that problem involves finding a girlfriend or getting laid... and even then, they attempt to help (but the majority of those helping are having the exact same problem :p)
