Bug on my Screen

So... There's a bug on my screen. It seems that no matter how many times I flick the SOB off of my monitor, it always reappears a second later. Problem is, I know I can't kill it because it will make a mess on the glass. And nobody loves to polish a 27" screen.

Ooh, retro.
I take that back. I think there might be people in the world who LOVE to polish their 27" screen. And I'll tell you why. When I first started shopping for computers, I knew I needed something from Apple. Because no matter what anyone says, their machines are simply the best for handling media. And as a film-maker, media is something I happen to stumble upon more than anything else.

So I go to the website and start searching for the specifications I require-- By the way, I just killed the bug. I couldn't take it anymore-- and the computer that appeared on my screen? A glorious iMac, 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5 with 4 GBs of memory and a terabyte of storage.

Hmm... What does all that mean, you ask? Well you're asking the wrong person. Though I can be quite handy at certain computer related functions and troubleshoots, I am absolutely useless when it comes to technical information and specifications. I do all I can to avoid the actual insides of computers.

At any rate, I picked a good computer. The only hitch was that the actual monitor of the thing only came in 27 inches. Kinda big, I thought. But thinking a little deeper made me realize the benefits of having such a large screen for editing my videos. It was perfect. So I bought it.

My baby.
Yep. I finally had the perfect computer for me. I put it on my desk--and very quickly realized that it hardly fit on it. Oh well, it would all be worth it soon enough. And let me tell you, it has performed beautifully. Everything is great! Except...

When people walk into my room and see my computer, the first and most popular response they give me is some variation of the following... "Woah, haha, are you compensating for something?"

That's right, laugh it up. A man buys a big computer so that must mean he has a small penis. Well, I don't want to get into detail here, but I can say that the selection of my computer had very little to do with my genitals.

So there you have it. Now, some of you might wonder why there may have been a bug on my screen in the first place. Well, let me count the ways.

#1. It's really hot in my room, so I opened the window.
#2. I can't sleep, so I turned on my computer.
#3. It's the middle of the night.

That's all I really have for you at the moment. But stay tuned to my next post, in which I will inform you dear readers all about why I am unable to sleep right now! It will be a hoot! And I mean that non-sarcastically! Yay!


Yours,
