Hey, i was thinking and it occured to me that women and computers have alot in common. For instance:
1. If you do something wrong, they will both give you the stare (blue screen of death).
you get the idea...
can u think of any similarities?

Similarites? How about this: you have to put a lot into it (relationship-wise to be general, and with programs), but every now and then there are things that make it definitely worth it. Take from that what you will.

no mater what you do you cant ever get the one you really want, unless you have oodles of money

While it is not always the case, they can both be very expensive to maintain…

computers are like men.

you've gotta turn them on before they'll do anything for you.

(and being a chick, i like it that way.)

eh, maybe if the question was 'how are computers like prostitutes?' or 'how are computers like gold-diggers?'

The difference is: prostitutes and gold-diggers take the money for themselves, whereas to get a girlie, like buying a computer, the money goes to someone else (unless you consider the pimp aspect). That's one cool run-on sentance, man.

Posted by kuru on Sep. 25 2000,22:25

why is it assumed that you hafta spend a fortune and buy a bunch of stuff to get a girl?

oh yeah, i forgot, the word was 'girlie'.

Come on, kids... this is a joking thread. From my experience, it costs a little bit more during periods when I have had GFs... Even while totally worth it, I have never felt like I was paying for the privilege of their company.

And the 'girlie' comment was also entered in jest. I've never thought of it as 'getting' as well.

Along the original lines of the thread:
When something is wrong, you have to be intimitely knowledgeable of the operating system in order to interpret the cryptic error messages.

personally, i dont see a very convincing fact to connect girls and computers except for the fact that sometimes they can piss you off real bad, but most of the time they kick ass.

Posted by kuru on Sep. 28 2000,22:35

facts? you gotta be kidding right?

am i the only chick in the world who's never expected a guy to spend money on her? there have to be others like me out there... back me up on this!

i don't want diamonds, gold, flowers, cars, candy, cards, trips to tahiti (or anywhere else), watches, clothes, condos, ski resort weekends, perfume, stuffed animals, or dinners at fancy restaurants.

i'd give my left breast for a guy who'd write his own feelings on a piece of paper for valentine's day and be happy to sit in the lab at 11 pm and eat papa john's pizza with me when i hafta work all night.

the best gifts a dude can ever give a chick are his heart and his company.

well, I keep wanting to post replies to threads here at detnet and today I really just had to register to say, kuru, you are totally right on...

I've dated lots of guys (for some reason software engineers are more prone to this, hmm) who basically make themselves into money-and-gift doormats, inviting you to wipe your feet on them. and of course you do, cause they make it so easy! I have more fun with my boyfriend now than I had with any of them; I can really talk to him, he understands my inner nerd, and he's not with me cause of my hair, or face, or figure, or whatever. and all we ever do is hang out on campus or at home (ok fine and dance and stuff, but that's cause I make him) I'm glad he has a spine and doesn't buy me all sorts of trophy crap.

...that is all. (my, my very first post. how sad. i suppose we all have to start somewhere though)

People ask me to fix their computer. I do in 5 seconds.
They say "You think your good don't you".
I say "I know I'm good". People always ask stupid questions.
