SlashChick's Journal: More IM hilarity! (This time it's about me!)

Here is some more fun stuff from an AIM convo I had late tonight:

[03:50] Me: Being a perfectionist drives me nuts a lot of the time, because everything that isn't perfect is like an itch
[03:51] Me: Just the urge to improve... constantly improve
[03:51] Me: It's called "making your client buy new computers and printers"
[03:52] DJStarchBoi: ROFL
[03:52] Me: And "driving your other friends nuts with TiVo sales pitches" :P
[03:52] Me: I realize that I can be obnoxious about it
[03:53] Me: I usually get the *sigh* look, like "Oh there goes Erica trying to sell me something again"
[03:53] Me: And then I am like, okay, it's time to stop :)

[03:54] Me: Right now it's my roommate and a digital camera
[03:54] Me: I am like "Get a digital camera"
[03:54] Me: And he's like "You bum, YOU get a digital camera"
[03:54] Me: And I am like "No, I don't have any money... so you get one"
[03:54] Me: And so on :)
[03:55] Me: He has two jobs! I am like "Whatever, you can afford a digital camera!"
[03:55] Me: And he's like "Shut UP" :P
[03:55] DJStarchBoi: ROFL
[03:55] Me: And then I stop and file it away for another day... hehehe
[03:55] DJStarchBoi: and then you open the file, page through it, and find the vulnerable spot
[03:55] Me: Yep!!!
[03:56] Me: Like "You know how you said you wanted to go to that autocross this weekend? Wouldn't it be great if you HAD A DIGITAL CAMERA so you could take pictures there?"
[03:56] DJStarchBoi: HAH
[03:56] Me: And he is like "Shut UP!!!"
[03:56] Me: He will get one eventually ;)

I am a sadist. But it's all good. Because he will get a digital camera. And eventually everyone I know will have a TiVo, too. Hehehe... ;)

If ya can't convince 'em about technology...

[Surak]

pester the hell out of 'em until they buy it just shut you up. That's what *I* always say. :-P

*grin*

[Outland Traveller]

I can relate, but consider...

- Unless you're a technophile or have a pressing need, having it won't make you happy.

- Unless you like to shop dangerously, buying it won't make you happy.

Cheers,

Are you the girl in the Simpli about page? Because she looks like you, but the picture is titled "service_woman"...

Nope :)

[SlashChick]

Although I do get that question asked a lot. She is actually a stock photo. :)

When you GET a TiVo...

[FortKnox]

... you are worse... showing your friends how good TV can be.

Its an underground cult that I've been in since its inseption.
