Let me introduce my dad, Kaz. (Nooooooo. not K.A.Z. he doesn't Win that much)
he works at Minebea (NMB), a bearing company (bearings are those tiny balls that make stuff move. like computer fans and computers and keyboards and stuff.) he makes keyboards
Being at a techie job, you might expect him to know a lot about computers and how they work and stuff.
Nope.
Today, as we were shopping for my laptop cooling pad...
"Why's it so bad if your computer's hot? Besides burning yourself." ....O_o
and then I replied "it might overheat/break/etc." (shortened for readability)
and... "So it'll break if you don't have it cooled down?"
.......MY GOD WTF. and he has a laptop himself, too.
I wonder if his laptop is okay D:
he was all OMGFASCINATION and bought it because it has fingerprint recognition or something (and when he showed me the first time, it took 5 tries to get it to recognize -.-;)
but luckily (for him, doesn't really affect me XD) he has a friend at the electronics store, and he got an $9 discount on the laptop cooling pad (it's the black one from Belkin) so the $25 was $16.
And we also got discounts on lightbulbs and the antenna cable ^______^
(and then he went "see, it's good to have friends everywhere!" seriously. get out of my social life. D: STOP RUBBING IT IN. AND I HAVE FRIENDS. *hugs midnight scans staffs*)
and....and at dinner, we were eating yakiniku (sort of like Japanese BBQ) he said I could have the last piece of meat if I ate all the cabbage and onions, including his (EAT YOUR OWN VEGGIES D<) so I did.
.....and as I was eating, he ate that last piece of meat. =3=;;
asshole.
and there, you've met my dad. :P.
sort of.
