Your mouse has moved. Windows has to reboot for changes to take effect.

Okay… For all those who didn’t comprehend the topic… it simply means that I formatted my comp again… yes… this must be the third time this month… any particular reasons one might ask… well not really, I just love formatting my comp ( Lots of sarcasm intended )… well for those who are technically sound with windows, I had to format cause that stupid thing( Microsoft Windows) simply doesn’t work… I downloaded this file … and it says requires Win98 and above to run… and I was most definitely running Win98…
Hasn’t anyone noticed? It took the computing power of a P5, 16 MB ram and a 1 GB harddisk to run Win95, while it took the computing power of 3 commodore 64 to fly to the Moon. Something is wrong here, and it wasn't the Apollo. Never heard this one before… don’t work neither had I, that is until I received this FWD from one of my friends…Some windows users are simply too funny, one of my close friends runs two copies of windows… when asked why? I am faced with the question why not? Last I heard, that friend wanted Win-2000 too... better networking apparently…
So Coming back to my formatting skills … hey I am actually getting pretty good at this thing… from old Win to new Win in less that 40 min… together with all the drivers… impressive eh!! Hope Microsoft recognizes my talents… they need more people like me into their staff…The worst part about formatting is not the “handling another Windows setup”, but ya know what really bugs me… it’s the fact that all stored Passwords aren’t stored anymore( so much for the computer whiz)… so much so that I couldn’t log on to blogger.com for a long long time…
Hey Today was a Grand Festival in Indiacalled HOLIit’s a season of colorsfor more details go to google.com and search for Holiyou might get more information
Anyway Back to Windows… it really isn’t a joke that there are more we-make-fun-of-windows websites/forums then the number of Windows CD sold… but hey not taking too much credit away from Microsoft, piracy is also a major factor… I would really point and laugh at someone who pays 200$ for a windows license… Recollecting the major disasters of the last century my FWDed mail quoted “Hiroshima '45 - Tschernobyl '86 - Windows '95”… Some may ask why not shift to some other OS… god no .. I am happy with windows… its actually really good… it does make my P3 seem like a P2 but then … beggars cant be choosers…
The same Friend of mine was pretty confused one day…called her computer savvy friend and said that something was wrong with the floppy drive… apparently the floppies weren’t going in… It said "Insert Disk #3", but only two will fit!... heh heh… kidding people, not that dumb my friend was. Is! So as I leave you all today, I just have one small query… If Old McDonald had a comp, would it Eee-aye-eee I/O? ( Sorry for the lack of humor in this post… am too tired after re-installing Windows )
Oh yeah about this friend ...Honestly to be fair… they really should put “This side in” stickers on all floppies…

What is the world coming to???
First we have a fat fool, who is very proud of being able to format his drive and reinstall windows.
And thats not the end of it, he actually creates a blog to let everybody know about his IQ(or the lack of it).
Whats up with the writing style?
Did anybody notice how he wandered into holi in the middle of his essay(or should I say blunder).
Maybe his attention span is comparable to his IQ*(Lots of sarcasm intended).
Why are you cribbing about mighty powerful PCs*?
The computers aboard the APPOLO were not required to play multimedia data were they?
Take my advice buddy do not switch to any other OS*.
Your IQ cant handle the installation of any other OS and dont even contemplate reinstallation.
Believe me liking your blog will be the first signs of mental decay.

(*)LEGEND:
IQ : Intelligence Quotient.
PC : Personal Computer (PCs - Plural).
OS : Operating System (Eg:Windoze, Linux).

I have a few pointers for my Anonymous friend to whom I will be
referring to as dumbass( A.K.A Jerk, Moron, dolt ) hereon.
Point 1- its not APPOLO dumbass its Apollo .. so much for the IQ
Point 2- just to play with numbers jerk, my IQ is 162.. care to tell
me yours…( no need to tell me if its in single digits or lesser than
your shoe size )
Point 3- "Did anybody notice how he wandered into holi in the middle
of his essay.". When you ask a question, end the freaking thing with a
damn question mark ( looks something like this --> ? ). Anyway Holi is a
festival v(that's 'we' incase your brain got overloaded) celebrate
here in this part of the world. What would you know, considering half
your time is wasted on helping people will full forms.
Point 4- Clearly your English skills disable you from distinguishing
between a essay and an article. Nevertheless my "blunder" was posted
by me. Now tell me, I don't recollect barging into your house and
keeping a .5mm to your head ( that's a Gun you dolt no need to google
for it ) and threatening you to read it .. now did i?
Point 5- Though I don't remember doing things mentioned in point 4, I
certainly can tell, that I dint force you to click on reply, and type
a huge reply giving full forms of words ( that was mighty sweet of you
pal ).. now that's a complete waste of 25 min of your life ( 5 min to
type the reply in m.s word, 10 min to use thesaurus and another 10 for
your lovely 'legend' must have been real hard right?)
Point 5- "Lots of sarcasm intended" when there is sarcasm intended …
your writing skill should let people know that sarcasm was indeed
intended.. you don't need to explicitly mention it..
Point 6- "E.g." smart ass forgot to give a 'legend' for 'e.g.' anyway
your decrepit ( yeah look it up… fast ) skill of English just show
that you don't know what plural means… let me clarify.. we use "s"
when there are two or more objects… so u would be better of with
"examples"
Point 7- "cant handle the installation of any other OS"… hey I can
install the OS you are using, hey comeon, if you can install it… a
monkey without a computer can… or are you one of those lifeless losers
who ends up in a cyber café to read blogs?
Point 8- Correct usage of whats is actually what's and so is the case
with dont .
Point 9- I am not fat,I have a BMI of 23 which is just about perfect,
and hey check out nasa.gov I set up a username for you "jackass"
password is "numbskull" .. login and search for Apollo, u'll know the
high quality video and voice requirement…
Point 10- "Maybe his(wonder why u assume it's a "he" ) attention span
is comparable to his IQ" I hope I have given you enough attention
pal..
Point 11-"who is very proud of being able to format his drive"
With the eloquence( yeah look it up too ) of a drunk eating his own
puke, you stumbled through this fact completely oblivious
Point 12- "Believe me liking your blog will be the first signs of
mental decay"… Your I.P address was shown everyday since you made your
… so do v have a case of a health decayed person?
.
P.S Get a Freakin life pal.. seriously u need one !!

What kind of moron would read the same thing twice..??? tell me pal...

SmartOxymoron said...

Wow! Looks like Ive stumbled into a warzone! Id really love to find out who Mr.Anon is, but that would defeat the whole point.
Anyway, GW, I have some problems with your post here, apart from the usual grammatical niggles. Whats this I see about a .5mm pistol? Thats like shooting pins about the place. If you mean 5mm, that isnt much either. Use a 9mm. Now thats what a man should use.
Hey, btw, because its in the discussion, I'll have you know that ,my IQ is 352. You havent noticed yet coz Im an oscar winning actor as well :P

Golden Words said...

yeah even i would love to find out who my A is...
and no.. i prefer a .5 mm .. its sleak its sexy.. hope Mr.A comes back..
and congrats about our iq pal..

Anonymous said...

I like Mr. A, u know..coz he just stole the words from my mouth...i am the dumb chick who has two windows operating systems on my comp..true...
i want windows 2000 too...false...
i think i have 3 floppy drives...dude, stop obsessing over ur hair and formatting ur comp and get a life..

So much for ur vivid imagination, u dream things about me now????
Maybe u do need to have ur head examined...doesn't he, Mr. A????

Golden Words said...

"I like Mr. A, u know..coz he just stole the words from my mouth"
That statement was followed “ I am the dumb chick “ now.. giving credit where its due.. I don’t think Mr. A agreed to the fact that he was(is) dumb… we just inferred… anyway about the comment regarding me getting a life!! I do have one !! I think you are the one who needs a life I’ll give u reasons-
1- First you are the obsessive one who thinks the entire worlds is talking about you.. (WRONG.. I am not)
2- You have a computer with 3 floppy drives ( Need I say more? )
3- “i want windows 2000 too...false...” This blog is about me… nobody cares about you.. and those who do, don’t matter..make your own blog .. I did some checks for you.. i-am-a-bitch.blogspot.com is still available..
4- You like anonymous people on the internet ( maybe sexually I don’t know )
5- “u dream things about me now?” sexually NO ( nobody will )… otherwise NO ( nobody will ).. get a life... did I already say that?
6- You ask questions to unknown people on the internet… your i.p comes from a similar i.p as that of Mr A… so I think you both losers are the same...

At least both are dumb… But hey that’s my opinion… u can have your own.. ( but nobody will care )…

Golden Words said...

Ok slight errors in my last comment
point 1- its world not worlds
point 3- iamabitch.blogspot.com is actually not available..well who would have known..
Point 6- i made a error in viewing my ip stats, you both losers are indeed different..

Ektz said...

now i LOVE this... can i post this to my blog and link this there?? please please , pretty please:P

Golden Words said...

sure thing..but make sure u give credit where its due :P ...

SmartOxymoron said...

Hey Ektz! Howz you here? I mean, just for stastical purposes, what links did you follow to get here? Heard that thing about 6 degrees of separation, right?

Golden Words said...

i'll answer that for ya pal.. my stat reporter says-
www.haloscan.com/comments/ektz/111271528148682829/ (4 visits/page views ) stayed on the site for 14 min.. so much for privacy eh!!

Golden Words said...

hmm. now i need to ask which stat repeorter you use, GW? :P

SOM, i followed the link he gave when he commented at my blog. but i sure dint expect to find this...

Anyways, keep on... ;)

Golden Words said...

hmmm... regarding the del post.. there were 4 instances of "get a life" i dont understand one thing..if i dont have a life, what can i blog about..and why people keep visitng my blog and telling me to get a life..? not once not twice..but several times a day..now who needs a life again??
Moreover for the convinience of my blog readers, from hereon i will always be under the process of getting a life... unless told otherwise... fine?? hope that makes everyone happy..

Golden Words said...

And one more thing... dont misuse the anonymous comment thing like your own dating service... Its meant for people who haven't registered at blogger.com
If you dont like this blog, Dont visit again. i couldnt care less!!
And yeah..next step is Global IP BAN.. and this time i'll make sure i read the ip's properly.

Anonymous said...

this is the funniest blog i have ever visited.. i mean some anonymous jerk who happened to stumble upon this blog just passed two commments and the next thing you know all the other bloggers are at war... Seriously do u guys have like 48 hours in a day.
Ok so now i have the formula to start a war -
1) A stupid blog
2) A dumb comment
3) and a revolting reply
and there we have the dumb blogger wars...

Golden Words said...

You know what i realise, all the really dumb people post under "anonymous" tag... seriously.
The Above Guy first calls my blog the funniest blog he's ever read. then he contradicts himself and says its a stupid blog..
And no we(the blogging community) have only 24 hrs itself, but unlike other "slow" people who would need another 24 hrs to write something, we take a fraction of an hour to write/publish...

Harish said...

Came in thru Ekta's..
whew! it's like a warzone in here :)

but I do have a few nitpicks, bud. Hope u take it in the right spirit. (See, I'm not posting as anon!) :)

Mebbe Anon was a bit harsh with his/her comment (heck, make that VERY harsh).. but somehow I get the feeling u over-reacted.

1. I thot Einstein clocked the highest IQ at 161.. oh well.. :)

2. Point 5- "Lots of sarcasm intended" when there is sarcasm intended …
your writing skill should let people know that sarcasm was indeed
intended.. you don't need to explicitly mention it..


This comment of urs made me chuckle. Coz I remember reading this -

I just love formatting my comp ( Lots of sarcasm intended)
:)

3. I really didn't think u shud have taken up the cudgel against his/her English. Didn't seem too err.. decorous.
There were the odd grammatical/spelling mistakes in ur blog too (heck, they're there in mine too!). It's these li'l glitches that make blogs seem so.. well, human.

Take a chill-pill, relax :)

and oh, nice post!

PS:
Ektz, that was bloody cheeky of ya! :D

Golden Words said...

regards to the previous comment
The Iq thing.. i have never actually taken an iq test.. but yes i am smarter compared to Einstein...
The sarcasm thing.. i said that only to put forward my point that he was just copying my writing skill..and i was completely aware of me writing the same line on my post..
'It's these li'l glitches that make blogs seem so.. well, human.
' yeah i know.. but Mr A was questioning my IQ.. So had to go after him.. if it weren't for the APPOLLO ( that still craks me up BTW ) hehe
Happy reading..
GW

Golden Words said...

Life is precious...very precious...and you are wasting one right now!!!!
i wouldnt even tell you to get a life, cause you will be just wasting one!

And praveen kumar ( were your parents drunk when they named you? ), do society a favour, go underground!

Golden Words said...

Golden words should not be repeated. (TM)
After looking at THIS one..I seem to think it was a mistake the first time itself..let alone repeating.
And just TOO bad..there are no spelling mistakes in THIS comments section for you to pompously assume you could pick one..No point telling you "Get A Life"..Life is precious you know...


What substance things are we talking about??

Golden Words said...

I Rest my case!

Sushma said...

Kudos to you GW! I probably enjoyed reading the comments better than the post itself...and that, I'm sure, doesn't happen often!
Great job...I totally agree with you...people probably maintain anonymity 'coz they don't wanna slip out to the world that they are dumb :P
Again, KUDOS!
