It feels weird that this thread has no 56k warning, I guess that's not necessary anymore
until about two weeks ago I actually was relying on a cellphone data plan that was about 56k in speed, my god it sucked, even with adblockers and flashblock and all sorts of things I set up it was painful to do anything online. The whole net expects you to have broadband now, so no it's not expected or necessary anymore.

After that stent of horrid limited cellnet, the 2Mbps dsl seems light speed.

and nobody will analyze my screenies x.x ah well.

Wishes he owned a Lotus Elise. Goes to bed with Pillowcases covered in graphics from the movie Cars. Currently drives a purple 1989 Honda Civic. It's only redeeming quality is it gets 38MPG, but those were to the standards done back then. Using today's standards, it gets 4MPG.

True, though I want the Exige in matte black (Scura edition) more. Haha, no, haven't even seen Cars and I'm really not that big a car guy, I just like good design. Black 2012 Mustang V6 with 30 MPG today's standards. Love your interpretation, though, that sounds like an interesting alternate universe version of me.

You like cute animals too much. But I suppose that avatar should've been give-away enough.
Also, you vote conservative, since you're still using XP.
You're using the torrent program that everybody was using, when it was still cool to torrent. Again, playing it safe, and somewhat behind the times. But you are using TS3 instead of TS2, while unable to free yourself from the clutches of AOL.
You feel insecure about your graphics performance, hence you put that Crysis link on your desktop, to show what you've got on your gaming laptop. And you go on and on about how those newfangled 16:9 screens are hell, and that your 16:10 screen gives you so much more vertical real estate.
You use iTunes, because you've got sucked into buying an iPod or iPhone, because that's what everyone was having, and you couldn't do without. You couldn't suffer through Firefox' endless versions and still believe that IE sucks, so you went with Chrome, because Opera was too left field for you. I conclude that you are deeply insecure, and feel the need to follow the prevalent trends, stick to what you've got, and set off your personal shortcomings with performance hardware. Also you feel deeply lonely, a forgotten child, as evidenced by the creature on your desktop background image. It looks at you, and you look back, hoping for companionship in the inanimate.

I'm sorry.

Anyway, this should be almost too easy:

haha, amusing read but almost entirely inaccurate! I think the only thing you got right was that I do like cute animals a lot!

Work Desktop:


Ever since you were a little boy, you've wanted a go-kart. You thought about buying a Mini Cooper, but didn't want to be caught driving a girly FWD vehicle.

Instead, you bought a dune buggy to compliment your hick farming heritage. While at work, you dream of riding your dune buggy around the backyard track you constructed by using round-up on your yard- and letting weeds grow elsewhere.

You think your dune buggy is a delorean and can go into the future if you can hit 88 mph, as referenced by your May 2013 word document.

You're in the middle of implementing ghost track timers similar to mario kart, once you get enough engineers together to figure out how to do holographic karts outside. GET 'ER DONE!

That's not a dune buggy, it's a gokart with a rollcage...
This is a dune buggy.

Careful; just need another 56mph and you'll be eating your words.

Oh, and as for the Mini-Cooper part, I can't stand those damn things!
