Dumb Computers
Why cant computers be simple! I hate complex things! Ive had an email account with Hotmail for many many years. In fact, it was the first one i had ever had. All of a sudden my password is not working. I never changed it and it has been the same one for years. Now i understand there could be a possible "user malfunction" but it was fine this morning, but not now.
So i click on the link that says "Forgot Password" and apparently they are going to send me the password to my email! Well, that is nice, considering that i cant get into my email cause i dont have the password! And it wont give me an option to put a different email. Am i the only one that finds that stupid? Its kind of like not being allowed to enter without a pass and the only way to get a pass is inside!
So i then click on a more advance "Forgot Password" link, and they are asking me to put down credit card numbers, shoe size and father's ex-girlfriends numbers and stuff like that. Im thinking, im not breaking into NASA or looking for the Atomic Bombs Codes, i just want to get into the email account. And i cant find a phone number to talk to anybody.
Oh well, good bye Hotmail, it was fun while it lasted. You lasted longer than any girlfriend i have ever had, and probably a lot of marriages now a days, including the gay ones. I treat computers like my women, after 5 minutes of trying if youre still being difficult, im moving on. Not really worth the effort! HOWEVER........with that said, the fact that a computer is telling me i cant do something is not sitting well!
Comments
I know you guys were all in suspense, but I am happy to announce that the powers that be at Hotmail have confirmed what I already knew: I am me! I have been given permission to be me, i was tired of being somebody else!
I wasn't trying to do anything John. It was just my usual sarcasm at it's best. Or worst? LOL Just my way of poking fun of life. That's all I know how to do. :)
It was so funny last night I had read what Japo said up there a ways or two and thought,.hmm I want to comment, I was on Opera and couldn't. It's s good thing I didn't . I couldn't have cut him out of the bag of crap he was already in! ha ha And then Twinkie tried to get the whole thing started ina differnt direction. Oh the jocularity , Oh sorry it was a Father Mulcaheyism.
I liked how sister put it in the postive though.
I think the fact that i was raised by T-Shirt Slogans might have affected the way i think:
Why is beer better than women:
You can share a beer, you can throw one away when youre done and get another, you can bring home six at time.......etc...etc....
But I am trying to be better, haha.
A good five minue back scrub is fantastic! Hehe.
you TRY not to? LOL Why the hell would you NOT want to spoil us DAMMIT!!
We were put on this earth to be spoiled. hee heee. heee.... Just kidding. Sorta.
Twinkie, i am familiar with that. Remember my baseball blog that turned into humankind sucks.
Besides, Y JAPO, just because!
As far as spoiling women, I try not to, but sometimes u cant help but spoil them.
Haha I got your point but the 5 minutes just stuck out cause it was funny. And 7 1/2 minutes wow, don't spoil em too much now :P
hahahah Japo.. you're not used to people OVER analyzing every single teeny tiny detail of your blog, are you? LOL You think you're posting something fun and silly and before you know it you're discussing the ramifications of yadda yadda and the conspiracy theories behind whoop-tee-doo and a hostile government takeover. And here you were thinking you were talking about an apple tree or something way off the topic that the comments go. tee hee.
hahahahah Anyways.. here! This one's for you!
As a side note, my word verification thingy is Y JAPQ.. which almost looks like "why Japo" hahahhaha
Wow, its funny thats the comment you guys stuck with, haha. I got to watch myself around you guys! The point of the blog was, and still is, Hotmail wont let me give them a separate email address to send my password and since i really hate computer i dont have the patience so sit down and argue with a computer. And since it was actually the very first email account i ever had, i didnt have a second email at the time. However, apparently they sent it to my email but i need the password to retrieve the password. Thus analogy after 5 minutes and its still being stubborn i move on. Thats what i meant, not that i only give women 5 minutes! If shes special, 7 1/2! Thats right ladies, prepared to be pampered!
Women deserve lots more time than 5 minutes. Wish I could.
You only try for 5 minutes with woman?
I always use a second e-mail to send my password to, I've had Hotmail since 199hmmm well in the mid to late 90's. If i get locked out it send my password to my other e-mail site. I've had Hotmail send me stuff saying someone else has tried to crack my password and to log in and rectify the situation, perhaps you were cracked?
I just dont trust electronics where anybody can hack your info. So when they an email says it can give me my password if i give it my credit card numbers and important info (im assuming to verify its me) i dont want to do that. If i talk to a person who can verify thats different.
interesting e-mails and girls as an analogy but being self-taught on the computer i find the user interface is always getting simpler
