I got so stuck in Treasure Adventure Game that I started to feel like the game got bugged or something (it's more likely that I just didn't get what to do next).
I should probably check a walkthrough. Though I would need to start from the beginning anyway since I formatted my other drive. Really need to do that someday, the game was great.

To be fair their are some people who shouldn't be around technology

Although, I do agree they shouldn't be condescending to their faces.

Very very very.....must resist the forum.... must buy a GOG game...

Yes but the tracks still managed to maintaine a retro vibe, which, in my opinion, is why it worked so well.. It's tracks (in most places anyway) are like the lost lovechildren of the best SNES tracks and the best Mega Drive/Genesis tracks. And I mean that as a good thing.

The above quote seems all too appropriate. Surprised no one else used that quote yet.
Oh God, I feel so sorry for you.

Did you know that apparently modems can bite people? The machine uprising is here people

but thats the best part of the job....theres only so many times you can say "Have you tried turning it off and on again" before they stop sounding like words

Your #1 greeting message whenever you get a call while working in IT. :D

Hahaha, well, once I had a surge protector "kick" me ;P (I was trying to plug in a very rebellious power cable and my pinky slipped into the slot)...................my pinky got numb, even my arm up to the elbow.

But really, I think some people just like with everything else, start using something grasping the basic functionality that covers their needs, so when something out of that "safe zone" happens they don´t know what to do and since they lack the knowledge outside the safe zone, they are afraid of "breaking" something by going outside the safe zone. I can understand that, I was like that till the day I realized technicians (not everyone, but the ones I took the computer to) were just as bad as anyone else, so from that day on I decided to learn everything about the computer and not rely on anyone else but me.
So today I can build my computer with my eyes closed, repair it, troubleshoot hardware and software malfunctions, make half the OS work when it didn´t even boot, and I just learnt everything from deciding one day to open the case and see what was inside that thing called computer :P, then some more from the internet and my own experimentation.
I´m not even a technician (official at least) but I have repaired computers at work, built computers for my friends and family, repaired them, upgraded them, and basicly this.....

lol licurg will chew you alive for taking his job

Go back to Bikini Bottom.

Great find - it really made my day! :D. Never seen IT crowd before.

There should be a sticker(s) on every new computers:
"When in trouble - try turning it off & on again. Do that until it solves itself"
"Please do not dangle the mouse by its cord or throw it at co-workers"
"Please refrain from yelling & swearing."
"If you only see a blank screen - try turning it on"
"Remember: The copy machine is not a short-cut to fame & glory"

"DO NOT blame the computer FOR YOUR mistake"

Oh, I highly recommend it. It's a hilarious show.

Since I don't give rep points freely to any new user (just in case it is some trading scammer with many accounts who is first trying to gather some rep points to appear dependable; not talking about you of course), all I can do is to return a compliment:

tinyE, you are great! Hardly ever do I see such nice new members in this forum! Everything in you is perfect, even the avatar (looks a bit like Space Invaders? I loved that game as a kid!).

You know, if I was female, I'd love to have your kids, providing you are male. If you are not, I guess we could still be a lesbian couple and adopt some. If I didn't have the principles about not throwing around rep points like candy to new users, I'd give you at least million plusses!

Keep up the good work!
