Quote: "To Mr Tech Support Person

My computer has ceased to operate. Windows will no longer load, and i cannot check my e-mail. I had recently noticed that my computer had been running slower than usual, so my computer literate friend told my i should free up some hard drive for my imaginary memory, so i went through my hard drive and got id of all the files i do not use, including all these weird unreadable files like "kernel32.dll" (i don't use my computer to make food), and all these folders i've never even seen before that were taking up too much space, like "SYSTEM32". What can i do so i can read my email?"


EDIT: The sad thing is, one of my friends dads did this. I couldn't stop laughing, and then kept laughing as i tried to explain to him exactly what had happened

Ok, explain why the hell you are using my avatar picture and, equally importantly, why I shouldn't just eat you alive right now?
