NOT FAIR!!!!!!
All relative uncle Vask I guess you'll just have to swallow your pride and accept your snails-pace internet access [img]tongue.gif[/img]
[/QUOTE]That's a stupid argument. [img]tongue.gif[/img] If we think like that then we should never strive to make life better just because there are some people who are worse-off. There are some people with worse computers than me so I shouldn't want to buy a new computer ever? There are people with no internet so I shouldn't even a little bit wish for a better connection myself? Sorry, not relevant argument And what are you on about pride? What's this gotta do with pride? LOL! I don't take PRIDE in my internet connection! LOL what a wierd and twisted idea!

And don't call me Uncle Vask!

Not stupid at all my good man. By all means strive for improvement. Better your circumstances. Work for a better world for you and for me and for hu-man-i-ty. Just don't cry like a little baby when you don't get what you want [img]tongue.gif[/img] Heh heh. If some people can cope with living in poverty, you can cope with your internet connection going a wee bit slower. Can you hack it Vaskez? Can you hack it?

And you do realize I'm saying this in all light-heartedness don't you? [img]smile.gif[/img] I've got nothin' but love for ya Unc...er, sorry, Grampa Vask

Bah, go away and let me cry over my ADSL connection! [img]tongue.gif[/img] Hehe who's crying? I just wanted a gripping title for my topic so a cry of "it's not fair" in capital letters is sure to get people's attention. I'm perfectly content with everything I have, bro. [img]smile.gif[/img]
