  • Dear Laptop (specifically the keyboard),

    I never liked you to begin with. I find you to be to be riddled with flaws only a person of my impeccable status can detect. I can live with the fact that you’re not comfortable to work with, but the least you can do is be responsive. After all, that was the deal. I bring you the words and you place them down in a neat and orderly fashion. Sure, we can go with the excuse that my constant typing wore you down, but you’re a bloody keyboard for Christ sake. It's your job. That's like a pornstar complaining about anal. When I type a word, I expect all the letters to appear, but you’ve been making me look like a buffoon for the last two weeks. I think it’s funny that you’re not messing up as I type this. All of a sudden you work correctly? Did my plan actually work? Having a heart-to-heart with an inanimate object to make it run smoothly... I must be crazy or a pure genius because it worked. Diplomacy works with machines, after all.  

    Sincerely,

    Kenny

  • This made me laugh. It's not uncommon for people to find me cursing out various pieces of technology as I struggle to get the adequate response.

    The greatest irony is that, though I seem to repel technology, my fiance is a computer tech. We make an odd pair, indeed.

    Here's hoping your keyboard listens to you :)

    Cheers,

    Taylor

  • @skylar_rose - Same here. I mean, I'm just now starting to get the hang of hardware. I know certain programs, but the whole wires, plugs, and devices flew by me for a while. The keyboard is working fine. I believe the talk did the trick.

    I can't picture you cursing up a storm. You seem so...benevolent and understanding. Unless it's limited to humans only. LOL 

  • Did anyone think to do this with SkyNet?

  • @JoeTheBartender - @JoeTheBartender - How about the machines in the Matrix..?

  • @Jack_Hawksmoor - I believe Neo did attempt that...  basically stating that he'd go in and kick Agent Smith's ass all over the place if they promised to be nice in return.
