Knuckle Children?!

[Acolyte]

Dear GOD, this was disgusting.

M: Ok, we were looking at your laptop, and found that it had a lot of spills and crumbs and such in it. Have you spilled any coffee or juice or somesuch into your keyboard?
C: Yeah, once or twice. I've also fired off a few kunckle childern into it by accident, if you get my drift.
M::eek: I didn't really need to know that, sir.

Where's that damn brain bleach?

[April]

EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWW

It took me a minute to get it, but I think I got it and that's disgusting

[Comp_geek]

OH GOD THATS DISGUSTING!!!!

ugh..now I gotta buy a box of latex gloves to work on computers

[DistantStar]

Ewwww...that's way worse than the guy who asked me about men's pajamas last week, then informed me that he'd just gotten married a month ago, and only now needed some pjs!

[Acolyte]

Hey, most men sleep in their boxers.
Right? :no:

What gets me is that he TOLD me this. I mean, if I was asked about a sticky substance in my keyboard, I'd say yes to the coffee thing, not tell them I was spawing kunckle childern on it!

[Ringtail Z28]

That's the part where the laptop learns to fly... right out the damn window! :puke:

[RedHeadPhoneGirl]

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!! That is disgusting ...... I DO NOT want to have to wear latex gloves just to clean a comp. ew ew ew ew ew

[Acolyte]

I've never been so glad to see a part break (Said keyboard had a stuck Backspace key, the reason for the call.). I tossed it while still on the phone, then cleaned the keyboard mount with rubbing alchol, then washed for a good three minutes.

This guy also had LOADS of porn on his computer, as well as...*ahem* pictures from his trip to the Phillipenes.

[LostMyMind]

One of the major rules of working on keyboards/mice/laptops, wear gloves if it isn't yours.

Now you all know why.

[Erin]

Oy vey!

Was any of the porn of the variety that you could report him to the cops for?


I was thinking of going back to school and learning how to fix computers...maybe not now....

[Acolyte]

No, it wasn't anything illegal. Just a guy having a LOT of fun in east Asia.

As for going to school-don't bother. A computer science course is good. A+, N+, Cisco and Microsoft Application certs are better, and a 100th of the cost.

[skeptic53]

Is that supposed to be "knuckle children", if not, what's a kunckle?

[Rapscallion]

Typo - fixed it.

[MacPrince]

Probably should have fixed "childern" (children) while you were at it. ;)

[Rapscallion]

I live but to serve.

I'm currently working to get my A+ (halfway there, got my core hardware June 6th) and I can tell you, you can make more money with an A+ than with just any comp class.

I think I'll stay where it's (mostly) safe and finish up all my Desktop Publishing type stuff and some Library Science

[LostMyMind]

:lol: wow, Desktop Publishing. I'm not going to say what I learned desktop publishing with. Most folks here probably never heard of it.

A+ certification is a very nice plus. Will help get you in the front door at least.

Unless you're planning to work in a lab creating the next new processor/drug/toy, most of the time it really don't matter what your degree is in. Most companies just want you to have a degree. (I'm talking non-science related fields.)

My old company hired someone that didn't have a computer science degree, to be lead programmer because he had some experience and he had a degree. Of course this dude was one of the most suckiest coworker on the planet.

I like using Word...I dont have a job right now, but for fun I've been organizing crochet patterns a friend of mine writes and posts for free online. She's probably got about 30 or more patterns written so far. I've been slowly copy/pasting each pattern into Word and am trying to put the patterns into book form. When I'm done I'm going to email her the file, and I'm also going to print it out for her.

So far it's just for fun, but I almost wouldnt mind a job that involved publishing and editing. I'm going to go back to school this fall and try to get a degree in publishing or library science. (local community college...I'm too poor for a real university) It's slow going tho...I have a hard time with school. (ADHD) If I take more than 2 classes at a time, I'll end up doing good in one, but flunking the others.

I do hope you're allowed to report him if it's the kind of "pictures" I'm thinking you mean ......

And please, pass the brain bleach...took me a couple seconds but when I got it....jeepers it hit me like a train.

[Acolyte]

No, it wasn't anything obviously illigeal (Like 10-year-old prostitots or something). If it WAS, I would have reported him right then, given the HD to the cops AND imaged it just in case that one got lost/destroyed.

[DGoddessChardonnay]

Oh dear Dog . . . you're talking about Baby Batter.:runaway:

[bean]

You think that's bad?

A friend of mine was once a janitor for a university. He got to clean the (community) dorm bathrooms. He told me that he was usually cleaning knuckle babies out of the drains daily. :cry:

[BlakeMP]

You know, I'm no longer really surprised by some of the disgusting things people do. I AM, however, still surprised at what they'll ADMIT to...
