blue screen of death

I got fed up with the blue screen of death and called ASUS product support. The guy on the other end of the line treated me like a child and had me to a reset, everything was wiped out and it was time for a fresh start. Since I did the reset, I've had one blue screen of death so I checked my drivers and one was no good.

I truly hate windows 10. Microsoft can stick their fucking cloud up the arse as far as I'm concerned. But what's the alternative? A friend spilled a tiny amount of water on her macbook and the thing is basically worthless. She paid about $2000 for it about 3 years ago and the apple store told her that it would cost about $1600 to fix it.  My ASUS/windows 10 toy might be a pain in the ass but it's only a $400 pain in the ass, so things could be worse.

On a positive note, the pair of duck shoes I bought were an outstanding investment.

It is so nice being able to walk rip in the wet weather and not have to worry about getting my feet wet. I had always bought so-called waterproof leather boots in the past and those sieves usually ended up giving me cold wet feet.

In summation:

Windows 10 bad.
Duck shoes good.

Billy's brain had an unexpected shut down and his tongue paid the price. He mumbled something about loving you sons of bitches.

  1. Those shoes look great and their waterproofness is the cherry on the cake. It's about time they made waterproof computers.

    Are you sure the problem is Windows 10 and not a dud computer?

  4. I am very sorry for your computer problems. When you replace it, please consider an Apple. They're not at all difficult to learn to use, and they're so much more safe and reliable that there's no comparison.

    1. i don't really have any computer problems, the new toy has a human problem.

      in the grand scheme of things, the quality and firmness of rip's bowel movements have a greater impact on my life than a computer operating system.

      I've heard that after we reach a certain age, a good shit feels better than a good fuck.

  7. Look in the bright side... Eventually you will get used to the quirks of Windows 10 and will feel comfortable with them.....



    ..... Just in time for them to roll out the next Windows 11 "innovation" and you get to start all over again! :)

    I understand and share your annoyance.
