Fare thee well

For the past 6 months, I looned. I maintained my patience. I thought it was just you throwing a tantrum on me or just that I was too daft to understand. People told me you are one of the worst ever, but I shrugged it off coz you are the only one available to me. Every time I hit on you, you made me wait. You made me wait like no other. I twiddled my thumbs waiting for you till they are almost sore. You had me round your little buttons and I was just too petulant to speak up, thinking you would realize it is not my fault. I looned some more. When I complained, you were just slightly better. But you persisted in being so unreliable, you 20 kg fat piece of crap. You give me backaches when I slung you over my shoulder and I looned. You don't perform at optimum...and I still looned. You even disregard some work that I did and made me do them all over again a few times when I haven't slept in days. Yet, somehow I looned a little longer, maintaining my patience and building up frustrations. Time and time again, I have such a strong desire to smash you up like a pulp and drop you from the highest height so you explode and break into pieces. I refrained, as you are the only one I had. I looned plenty more times than you dare imagine. And now, I can loon no more. Productive days can be spent in the office without me having to wait more than 5 minutes each time I click on something. It took you 20 minutes to boot up, another 5 to read the file I’m clicking on, another 10 to open up the file, another 5 to open other applications and 15 more to shut down. That's dozens of minutes into wasted hours of my life that I will never get back. That’s it! I cannot take your stoopid tantrums no more. I never liked you anyway. You make me damn tu-lan. My complains to the IT department ain't so kind this time and they told me you will be replaced. About bloody time. Begone IBM T42 . You are the worst I ever had. You sucked to the grandest grandeur! It’s no wonder why they stopped production of your kind.


Super sucky, useless F#$&%^##@ IBM T42...



...replaced by a potentially eye-sight destroyer, Lenovo X200
