<div class="IPBDescription">not here! [explanation why]</div> Just in case you all were wondering where I went as I've kinda disapeared from the forums[I'm sure it runs thru your head at every moment]

I came home a week or two ago and went to hop online before I went to wrestling practice, but the computer had a peice of tape on the monitor that said <!--QuoteBegin--the monitor+ my house--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> (the monitor @ my house)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin--> Computer down, Hardware <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> I contemplated finding out what went "wrong" with the computer but didn't have the time, and when I came back from practice I asked my dad what was wrong with the computer, he said <!--QuoteBegin--My Dad+ week or two ago--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> (My Dad @ week or two ago)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin--> I took all the cards out of the computer so you couldn't use it <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> my response was "gee, thanks"


In a nutshell my father borked the computer so I can't use it, and all internet access I get is at school.

This goes along with his previous actions of locking the CPU up, and taking the mouse, etc.

Yes I know I used the computer a tad much, but the computer at my house is also the centerpiece for the huge widescreen TV with dolby that we use to watch DVD's on, except we don't have a DVD player just a DVD-rom drive.

I felt the need to explain...

    Ah TAK. I still remember when you first showed up on the forums and gained a post count of 1000+ in a matter of days. I loved going into the fan-fic forum and seeing that the last reply in every single thread was from you <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Anyways, good to have you back. The world needs more neutral people. I'm just basing that of the discussions forum btw <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Wow you guys stand up to your dad? I don't, he's pretty big (tall wise and muscle wise) What ever he says goes. Yea it sucks I'll be comfortable on the couch and watching Courage the Cowardly dog and he comes in and just looks at me, waiting for me to get off the couch and go sit on the other one.

    Lay the smack down on your dad, you will get you butt kicked but at least he will know how you feel about the situation <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah, I think OWN3D is appropriate here.

    Joking aside, it must suck to have Hitler-like parents. I can't even start to understand that.

    My parents are anti-disciplinarian hippies. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    ~scratches head~

    uh... can't you guys just talk to your parents instead of 'laying the smackdown' or whatever? I know nobody has perfect parents but usually anyone'll listen to you if you push the right buttons. I'm usually pretty cheery and accomodating to my parents so they usually know they've crossed the line if I actually get angry with them. I think I've shouted at them all of twice in my life and they've always backed down. I wouldn't know if I could 'lay the smackdown' on them and I wouldn't want to find out... rather than turn to violence there's always a better solution; like walking out =P

    my parents usually don't care what I do


    when I leave my house to go out it goes something like this

    <!--QuoteBegin--me+ leaving the house--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> (me @ leaving the house)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin--> alright then<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    <!--QuoteBegin--parents+ when I leave the house--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> (parents @ when I leave the house)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin--> you have your keys?<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    *sounds of lock being turned*

    and then I'm free to frolick and be young and I can come back to my house at like 3-4 in they morning and they don't say much.


    my dad however did tell me in the 9th grade that he didn't expect me to live thru high school, once again I said "Gee, thanks"


    sooner or later I will get my windows ME and dial up back...

    Your dad sounds pretty cool.

    Also reminds me of a comic I use to read when I was in college, Psychodad. The one I laughed the most at was the strip of 'Timmy' playing little league baseball and he's up at bat. The dad was like, 'Don't you dare strike out Timmy!'. Strike 1 --> Strike 2 --> Striiiiike 3. Dad's response was, 'Guess who's sleeping in the closet tonight.' The kid walks away with tears in his eyes. Hilarious!

    It might just be me, but those PC's (+high speed connection naturally) are damn addictive. I have an exam in 4 days!! Why am I not studying? Damn... does your dad do international confiscations?

    Well, it is quite a major event, the OP getting his PC privalages back. I wouldn't mind either method (new thread or bump).

    Oh and congrats, how was it?
