The Post Thread VII (AKA The Meaningless Thread)

if your used to a pc then its hell.. instead of good ol ctrl + C for copy, its this wierd apple button command thing and C, then theres no right click so you have to hold down the button which you can't do with the stuff i click on so i spend hours midlessly trying to get somewhere only to find it doesn't work. Thier lucky they have all  the leads connected to the tables or i'd be trying to smash this Mac up!!

although on a technical standpoint Macs should only be used for industry work since thats what thier designed for (Artwork, Animation, Movies, 3D, CG, Photoshop etc)
Windows is better for everything else, LOL

There are a few viruses for them as well. Since only a few people use them.

I used iMacs before. It was during Jr High since I was taking computer classes (of course ^_^). It's not so bad. It's just a bit awkward using them since their operating system is quite different. Schools are chaning their operating systems to Dell now... but I just wished they used XP instead of 2000. It sucks I tell you

Last note: I don't like the one-click mouse either, Vex.

Hmm..that is a problem....unless we place it on a new board and restrict non-members there. Probably a members only board?

That's a good idea. I'm not sure if it's possible, though.

Not possible I'm afriad. The only way is too close off access to the Anything Goes board, but then there is nothing to stop somebody signing up a user account and gaining access.

True, true. I suppose someone can just get an account and they could do whatever they want. Oh, well.

Minna-san, I'm back! I missed you all. Taking the topic in a different direction, I hate hospitals, and the reason why I hate hospitals is because I was in one since Monday! Some of you may have noticed that I was complaining about my ears, and how I was always so dizzy and tired.

I don't have the time to make a doctors appointment, so I went to the hospital to get it checked. Part of this reason is I passed out at work on Saturday and my boss wanted me to see what was wrong. When I went to the hospital I went to the Emergency Room (ER) and they said it was probably my allergies, gave me a prescription and said I could go home. In less than 2 minutes a nurse came back and said that I couldn't leave yet.

I waited 20 more minutes and the doctor came back and he said I had anemia. That's when my body is lacking blood in my hemoglobin. A hemoglobin is what contains the red and white blood cells, and it's supposed to be between 12-15. Mine was a 5.9.  They kept me in the hospital up until today, and I'm just so glad to be back!

[Cherry-chan]

Thank goodness you're alright! I'm so happy you're back! Yeah, I hate hospitals too, but not because I've been a patient in one. It's just that I hate hospitals because everytime I've been in one, someone I know always dies (with the exception of people being born). They never come back out healthy, except for my mom and my aunts and all the relatives who gave birth. Last year I was in the hospital a lot because my best friend's mom was sick, and she died. Then my grandpa was admitted around this time (or in late October) because he had pneumonia. We thought it got better, then it came back and was worse than ever. He passed away two days before my birthday.

I always find myself crying in hospitals. I've barely know anybody who was sick and got out of the hospital alive.

Arigatou Cherry-chan! I gave you a cookie for that!

Well, you can now break that record. You know me, and I got out alive, and I wasn't giving birth!

[Alexiel]

GASPS! Well, at least you're alright, that's what counts. Did stress count too? o.O I hate hospitals... they're just... uncomfortable.

[moezychan]

Yes, stress was one of the reasons. My life has been very stressful so far. And I hate hospitals too. The one thing I don't get is how are people supposed to get better when they feed you food that tastes so horrible! Yech!

[Miss Jenni-Maie]

Hospitals. Blow.
I always get either the cranky witch of a nurse who you want to suffocate with your pillow, or the nurse who treats you like a freaking baby (which I guess doesn't bother me much once I'm drugged up haha).
I was in the hospital just last week! My kidneys again. Although this time they didn't even test me for anything. I just sat in the waiting room for 2 hours (I basically pushed three chairs together and slept on them to try and block the pain out) and they just sent me right home. Apparently I wasn't in enough agony.
Wow. Thanks.

[moezychan]

Life is scary Endoh-chan. We are too much alike. I do have a question though, and you don't have to answer if you don't want to. When I was at the hospital, I had to have an endoscopy done and they called it an endo. Is that how you got your username?

One thing though, my first night one of the nurses was helping me get settled by telling me what I needed to know. After that was done I said, "I'm not allowed to use my cell phone, am I?" And she answered, "Well, you're not supposed to, but if you do, I'll never know.  " I really liked her!

[Miss Jenni-Maie]

Haha, I want your nurse, Moezy-chan!
Never even heard of an endoscopy, haha. I got my name from that random Japanese name generator, haha.

She was really great! I loved her! But when they told me that I was getting an endo, I suddenly thought of you, and was reminded that we are way too much alike! Also, an endoscopy is where they sedate you and put a tube with a camera attached to it down your throat. They wanted to see if I was having an ulcer. I was terrified.  Don't bother asking me though what happened. All I remember is them telling me to lie on my left side and next thing I know somebody was tapping my foot and telling me to wake up.

[Miss Jenni-Maie]

What an interesting way to be remembered, haha!
[shiver] a camera down your throat, eh? I'm glad you weren't awake for that >_<

[Ralea]

Yeah, imagine if you were awa-- no don't, argh, i'm choking already just thinking of it. I spend a lot of time in the hospital since my Aunt is a nurse. I usually spend my time near the Physical therepist's clinic or the newborn nursery. I feel most comfortable in those places. Especially when there's a couple and they're cooing over their new baby.

[moezychan]

What an interesting way to be remembered, haha!

It did calm me down though. I was reduced to tears right before they did it. Of course, I wouldn't let the doctors or nurses see. I'm great at putting on a happy face. All I have to do is tell a joke and they laugh so much that they can't tell that I'm crying!

[shiver] a camera down your throat, eh? I'm glad you weren't awake for that >_<

Me too!

Yeah, imagine if you were awa-- no don't, argh, i'm choking already just thinking of it.

That's what I was afraid of!

[Miss Jenni-Maie]

Oh yeah. My defence is my humor. Whenever I'm feeling crappy I just make random jokes about anything to try and cover it up.

[Alexiel]

Lol, I do that too. I mean... I get depressed when someone else gets depressed. It's a habit. >_> A jokes always helps cheer people up when the times are bad (at least it's what I believe). And besides, there's a saying that goes that you'll live longer if you laugh a lot in life.

[Cherry-chan]

Arigatou Cherry-chan! I gave you a cookie for that!

Well, you can now break that record. You know me, and I got out alive, and I wasn't giving birth!

Arigatou, moezy-chan! at least I know where one of my recent cookies is coming from!

[Ruby Chan]

And besides, there's a saying that goes that you'll live longer if you laugh a lot in life.

I'm in trouble then! 

Like I've said before, it takes a lot to actually make me laugh.....or even smile a lot of the time. Don't you hate it when someone says a joke that you don't find funny, but everyone laughs so you have to fake smiling and laughing at it? But on the other hand, if someone gets depressed or upset, they usually know that they can talk to me  because I won't laugh at their problems or make them feel uncomfortable because they're so down.
