If I had stuck with it, I'd have been in the first wave of the PC revolutionaries of the early '90s.  But nooooo...POLITICAL SCIENCE WAS MORE FUNNER :bleeding:

Imagine that alternative universe CdM brilliantly maximizing shareholder value for his Silicon Valley megacorp.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Don't worry, my mother imagines it for me.  Every.  Fucking.  Day.  :frusty:

Doing anything with computers in 1982 was a thousand times nerdier then than it is now.

Shut up.   :glare:  I could write in BASIC off the cuff.  Used to program my own "stories" using just graphics and sounds. 

If I had stuck with it, I'd have been in the first wave of the PC revolutionaries of the early '90s.  But nooooo...POLITICAL SCIENCE WAS MORE FUNNER :bleeding:

You sound just like me!  I was welded to my mighty Apple II, was writing a bunch of different programs in basic.

But I didn't want my whole life to be a gigantic :nerd: so rather than go with computer science (like many of my friends did) I went into geology, and then law.

But of course no matter what I'm still a pretty big nerd.  I met someone the other day, said what I did and she was surprised - she was sure I must work in IT. <_<
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

Welp, looks like the unemployment route is going to be the way to go.  Just found out Standard General already filed a motion to close all corporate RadioShacks in the US.
Experience bij!
