Look who on Planet Earth hasn't?
If you haven't, then you have not lived.
IT'S THAT SIMPLE :)
I agree.
I felt like doing what your picture depicts yesterday after the computer lost a document I had spent ages working on. I had to rewrite the document tas it was due at lunch time yesterday. The original document has completely vanished. Nowhere to be seen. I swore. A lot.
I have gotten upset with all my devices not to the point of swearing but nonetheless
Definitely. They are fantastic when they work but frustrating when they get gremlins, turn on auto check and appear to have minds of their own.
I haven't that I recall, but my husband more than makes up for it !! I hear all this screaming and swearing coming from the other room, and go in and ask what's wrong. Turns out the internet isn't working or some such thing. I tell him that a computer is an inanimate object, and all the swear words in the world won't hurt it, but it probably makes him feel better to let off some steam !!
I made some ginger nut biscuits once for mine after a similar experience! I thought some comfort food might help.
Firstly, Naomi, I am so sorry! That is the absolute pits. I have lost a document only once, but I have sworn at the computer many times. Damn thing.
Thanks Vee. It was frustrating!
Not since that one time when I lost a weekend's worth of work because the server didn't back it up. That was a nightmare.
Oh no! That is terrible. I feel your pain. I have no idea why the server didn't back up my work either. It had a mind of its own. Rewriting felt like it took a lifetime..
I,ve definately sworn at the computer, it's silly it's not as if it can hear me.
It is really silly isn't it? It feels better though!
Ha Ha on a regular basis the words "What is the matter with this bleep bleep computer/ phone" have often been heard coming out of my mouth.
I hear you! I love the bleep bleep!
Always ... I'm the proverbial potty mouth
They can be amazing when they work but SO frustrating when they don't!
Yep...both get sworn at often!
I have sworn at our computer, but now we've updated it, it's so much quicker.
That is great! I don't have much luck with updates. They drive me crazy and I end up more frustrated.
Yes at my phone, when I couldn't find a phone No I needed to ring, but that wasn't the phones fault, it was mine!
We've just returned from Melbourne last night, & our son-in-law used to ask me with a smile in his voice, every evening, before dinner, while I was mucking around on my laptop, trying to do something, "Are you swearing at that computer again?" I'd reply, "No, no, not really"
