Mom, what am I gonna use this thing for?!
Mom, I said I wanted a GAMING MACHINE, not a HP Intel Core 2 Quad Desktop Computer! How am I supposed to go on tonight’s looting run with the guild with this wimpy graphics card! YOU MUST HATE ME OR SOMETHING! That’s the only reason I can think of for you to buy such a non-video game-centric computer! This’ll be great for SPREADSHEETS AND CRAP! Real smart, Mom. WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME?!
I swear I am running away. This is it. I am 14 and sick of this world where I have to put up with included Windows Vista! This is so dumb! Look at these speakers! THEY’RE SO STUPID! They don’t have amazing crystal-clear quality at all. They’re just AVERAGE! How the heck am I supposed to fully enjoy my illegally-downloaded KMFDM songs while shooting terrorists online?! I don’t know what I did to deserve being your kid but I HATE IT!
What could you POSSIBLY use a computer like this for? Burning CDs and DVDs? Doing stupid reports, homework, and looking at photos? THAT IS STUPID! What am I going to do, edit video on this thing? NOBODY USES COMPUTERS FOR THAT LAME STUFF! This thing comes with MS Works 9 and MS Office Home and Student Edition? WHAT COULD I POSSIBLY FRAG WITH THAT?! Oh gross, it’s a refurb! That is DISGUSTING! Who knows what happened to this thing before they rebuilt it!
Mom I swear if you don’t want me to choke myself until I die you’d better go back to the store and get a NEW COMPUTER RIGHT NOW!
