They had it on sale.
I got it VERY cheap.
I got more than I wanted.
I got a free bag. Free carry-case.
I got the top-of-the-line model.
I didn't get the cheaper one I wanted.
I only got one power cable, not two.
But that's okay.

Because it's mine.

Glad to hear your Vaio isn't as discontinued as you thought?

Although, "Conan the Librarian" has a good ring to it.

If only it was shorter...

You realize that by buying a mac you're falling victim to the trendy / preppy crowd who all own iPods, wear fitted tees, grow goatees, and have a single pierced ear!

You have forfeited your soul and you are doomed! DOOMED I tell you!!!

...

What?

And you look like this guy.

And I own a Neuros WonderBrick, wear loose tees, have a goatee, and piercings make me shudder.

But what else was I going to buy? A DELL? *shudder*

He obviously hasn't been devouring enough innocent souls. I mean, look at how scrawny he is! I doubt he could properly sunder a small kingdom in his state. And that outfit! The anatomical body suit is so last millennium...

As are shoulder spikes, but I see you're still rockin' the antiques.

Besides, last I heard is that you lost Latveria to some guy in leather armor and a green cape. If you can't hold onto small 3rd World countries, what room do you have to talk?
