[11.07.15] < @xeno> I HAVE RETURNED.
[11.07.18] < @xeno> ph34r, and stuff
[11.07.25] < @xeno> fagbot: doot for HAL being dropped on his head
[11.07.26] < @ejp> o_O
[11.07.26] < +fagbot> SUCK 'EM IF YOU GOT 'EM BOYS
[11.07.40] < @xeno> ejp: yesterday we were having Network Problems
[11.07.49] < @xeno> kelly's comp was giving an error for her ethernet controller
[11.07.57] < @xeno> so i wanted to see if it was her hardware or the modem
[11.08.09] < @xeno> so i disconned the cable from her comp, to plug it into mine
[11.08.15] < @xeno> doing so required moving the tower
[11.08.26] < @xeno> moving the tower required unplugging everything
[11.08.36] < @xeno> while everything was unplugged, i decided to clean out the inside
[11.08.49] < @xeno> cleaning out the inside required removing the case cover
[11.09.17] < @xeno> removing the case cover required leaning the tower over a bit because the bottom guides get stuck
[11.09.44] < @xeno> leaning the tower over a bit is easier when it is Raised
[11.09.50] < @xeno> Raising requires lifting, to the table
[11.09.55] < @xeno> and apparently, also dropping
[11.09.58] < @xeno> from waist level
[11.10.11] < @xeno> right smack on the left edge of the TOP
[11.10.13] < @ejp> I've never dropped a computer.
[11.10.19] < @xeno> and something went kaCHONG
[11.10.24] < @xeno> and then it refused to boot
[11.10.28] < @xeno> i've dropped lots of them
[11.10.31] < @xeno> mostly on purpose
[11.10.38] < @xeno> this was, naturally, entirely accidental
[11.11.16] < @xeno> what was not accidental, regardless of unplanned, was the fact that after i dropped it, i went MOTHER. FUCKER! and kicked it about 3 feet. :|
[11.11.37] < @xeno> so after i did that i babytalked to it and was all nice and plugged everything back in
[11.11.50] < @xeno> then i started it, and it said System Disk Error
[11.11.55] < @xeno> so i kicked it again...
[11.12.19] < @xeno> then it got just past the memory test to inform me of the following: D:\ Primary Ma
[11.12.21] < @xeno> and locked
[11.12.25] < @xeno> so i cried and turned it off
[11.12.30] < @xeno> and went to work
[11.12.35] < @xeno> and promptly forgot about it
[11.12.43] < @xeno> and just a bit ago went hey, why is my computer off?
[11.12.57] < @xeno> and turned it on and then remembered it was teh borked, after it had booted
[11.13.00] < @xeno> ^_^
[11.13.22] < @ejp> the xenions had to dissipate.
[11.13.36] < @xeno> yep.
