It can be up or down.
It's a LOT more fun when it's up,
but it makes it SO hard to get any real work done.
*You wanted it when?
Sorry, I was dickstracted there for a minute!
I don't know WHAT got into me! *wink*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the long-distant past,
it's only purpose was to transmit information
considered vital to the survival of the species.
Some people still think that's the only thing it should be used for, but most folks today now use it
for fun most of the time.
*We're going cruisin' on the freeway of love In my pink cadillac...
Fast lane baby*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It has no conscience and no memory.
Left to its own devices,
it will just do the same damn dumb things it did before.
Over and Over again.
*Insufficient Memory to perform requested operation.
Insert disk to re-install and try again*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It provides a way to interact with other people.
Some people take this interaction very seriously,
others treat it as a lark.
At times, it's hard to tell what type of person
you're dealing with until it's too late.
*What do you mean my trial period is up??
Just because a
faster cheaper option came along...
You're going to dump me for an undedicated server??
What if I offer you free unlimited access?*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you don't apply the appropriate protective measures,
it can spread viruses.
*Update your protection regularly if you
don't want things to get out of hand and start to multiply!*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It has no brain of its own...it instead, uses yours.
If you use it too much,
you'll begin to find
it becomes more and more difficult
to think coherently.
*Ummmmmmmmm....WHAT did you say again?
I'm sorry...
I wasn't paying attention...
Could you please repeat that
SLOWLY...pounding home each and every point
until I GET it??*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We attach an importance to it that is far greater than
its actual size and influence warrant.
*How much free space do you
actually NEED?*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you're not careful what you do with it,
it can get you in BIG trouble.
*There's that "does size really matter? thingy again!*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It has its own agenda.
Somehow, no matter how good your intentions,
it will warp your behavior.
Later you may ask yourself
"WHY on earth did I do that?"
*and WHEN can I do it again??*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some folks have it, some don't.
*Some folks get it...some folks go without??
No WONDER they're so grumpy*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Both are subject to hardware dongles.
*I hear that floppy disks are
SO obsolete these days...
consider an upgrade!*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Those who have it would be devastated if it were ever cut off.
They think that those who don't have it are somehow inferior.
They think it gives them power.
They are wrong.
*404 Error...Not found...
The area you are looking for is currently unavailable. Your equipment might be experiencing technical difficulties,
or you may need to adjust your attitude settings,
then try again*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The more people use it,
the bigger it gets!
*Oh baby....what big servers you have!
wink wink...nudge nudge*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Those who don't have it may agree that it's a nifty toy,
but think it's not worth the fuss that those
who DO have it make about it.
Still, many of those who don't have it
spend all their time trying to access it.
*Test drive? Kick the tires?
Or would it be...
You break it, you bought it?*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once you've started playing with it, it's hard to stop.
Some people would just play with it all day
if they didn't have work to do.
*Hmmm..would that be a little like...
Betcha can't eat just one??*
Or..
Once you start, you just can't stop?*
