(no subject)
So, I'm seriously debating getting a tumblr.
All of the GL feels are there. Like ALL of them.
And I have GL feels, and they want more GL feels to be feely with, but, but...
I don't do new internet thingies often. I break them. No, seriously,
when I finally gave into facebook it died for an hour after I signed up. I hit the final button and it was all *CRASH BURN* For like two hours.
When I used to work I once spent a day where every computer program I had to use hated me. I would try three times with something and it wouldn't work, and wouldn't work, and wouldn't work, and my supervisor would come over and be like *click* and everything would be fine, and he did nothing different besides not be me. I was topped off by walking up to someone to get an approval for something to hear "I don't know what happened, it just stopped working" as soon as I got within five feet.
I took a computer programing class, and passed only because the tests where written and I understood how to do things and could proofread programs like a boss - but every time I tried to write one bugs would pop up like wild fire that the even the overly competent guy in the class next to me couldn't figure out.
Now, this isn't to say that I can't handle computers. I am sadly enough the most computer savvy person in my family. I pick up little tricks and utilize them to their fullest. If something really doesn't want to work for me, and I really don't give a crap what it wants, I will out stubborn it till I figure it out or the computer gives up and does what I want it to anyway (that has happened before, believe it or not. By all accounts of my more computer literate friend at the time it shouldn't have been working).
I'm just saying if and when the computers revolt and try and kill us all I'm one of the people you want with you, and that I tend to stay inside my comfort zones whenever possible. (And maybe whining a bit cause I just gave into lj for young justice, and now there's a whole 'nother site that's singing me a sirens song?)
Anyway, my point in this whole thing - Anyone think I should just give in already, and IF I do, anyone willing to hold my hand when I inevitably get horribly confused by something simple?
