OK, what I don't get is the fact that my family has two open computers-my laptop and the main computer-and EVERYONE wants to go on the main computer.
Apparently, my laptop is 'too slow', so nobody wants on my laptop. However, in my case, I'm the ONLY one who TRULY suffers from inacessibility to it, because my laptop can't run PSU.
Now, firstly, the mere fact that I'm letting them on my laptop is a privelege, not a right. They seem to forget that if I truly wanted, I could kick them off, and they'd have nothing to do during the time in which I have on the main computer.
Secondly, they should be lucky they even HAVE internet access 24/7. I'm only online Thursday-Sunday, and I do my best to make the most of my time. Another thing they don't realize is that what I'm doing (or not doing in my case) is a far greater inconvenience than theirs, because all they do is go on MSN and go "omg ya" and whatnot. I, however, having been in this position multiple times, have been forced to make the most of what little time I have, so I'm on PSU, PSOW, MySpace, MSN, and real life as well. So tell me what the greater inconvenience is, I ask you.
And isn't it funny, too? I have no video games here, and going outside is out of the question, so the Internet is really the only thing I have in terms of what takes up my time. Meanwhile, they have whatever keeps them occupied for themselves.
So, the point of my rant is, think not about how slow this laptop is (I've never really had a problem with it myself, so I don't see why they're whining), but what it is you're doing. I'm always doing something on the Net at all times, and you're just going "OMG" with your friends. Yeah, I see the importance in that.
*sigh* I guess my friends will have to wait another hour for progress into getting me to level 40 so we can start farming Halarods. Oh well, I guess that's not as important to us than your "OMG LOL"'s. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif
