Not like he's ever gonna get laid, so why bother living any longer, right?
-
My computer has eight fans, and I can upgrade it to 15. That's enough vacuum power to cure my loneliness.
-
You don't even need that many, Moth. I'm running six total right now and I have my computer running ice cool.
-
The tower comes with 8.

I told my mother I was middle aged at 24 and she damn near started to cry. I thought I was being optimistic.
I am disappointed. I was really expecting some Ferrari kit car or something. I guess this is the generation Z version of a midlife crisis.

>_> I live in NYC. wtf would I do with a sports car

Drag race a police officer on horseback?

I have nothing to contribute here except, if you order from cyberpowerpc.com, their prices are lower because they use refurbished (not new) parts, and often these parts are broken when you get them. I had to send my computer back to them 4 times before they sent me one that worked. and by the end of it they were trying to get me to pay for the S&H. until I wrote a long rant about them on some high profile consumer report website. that got their attention.

That's why I said kit car. You'd start with a Fiero or some shit. So it would look like a Ferrari and have the power of a lawn mower. It'd be perfect for city traffic.
I pretty much refuse to drive in Manhattan. Just the cabs alone make it a clusterfuck. Chicago is easy as hell to get around. Philly roads suck a bag of dicks, and retards seem to think the bus lane is just extra parking, but other than that, not too bad. But I stay the hell out of NYC. No point in driving there anyway. Public is way easy.

come visit me and croix

There's an art to driving in Manhattan that is only achieved through experience.
I don't care about cars, though.
