Printers and Forums



Fuck printers.  And fuck Mac forums.


Printers never seem to work completely correctly. Theres always some fucking error message. And there seems to be no easy solution to any printer problem. Whenever theres something wrong with my printer, I always just have to wait until it fixes itself. Nothing I have ever done has fixed a printer problem. I can fix all kinds of shit, but when it comes to printers, I don't even know where to start. On my mac, all it says is that it can't identify the problem. And on the printer, it can't even tell that my computer is trying to print something. There are like 5 buttons on my printer, and none of them seem to solve any problems. On my mac, the only buttons on the print window are "hold", "delete", and "job info". Job info just says "Can't print." No fucking shit. There needs to be a "Why won't it fucking print" button.

And FUCK Mac forums or any forum thats supposed to solve shit. Whenever I look up a computer related problem, it ALWAYS leads to one of these forums. I know they won't be helpful, but I always end up clicking them anyway. This is what I see.

Original poster says something like- "OK guys, I am a total n00b at printer/computer issues (at this point, my mind goes- 'yes! me too!'). My problem is that [insert my same exact problem here]. (At this point, my mind goes, "yes! he has the same problem and he is also a computer retard! jackpot!"). So I tried configuring the 28164 trifecta ethernet router HTML terminal control 7086 version install Rapety 5.001...."

Ok, stop there. You said you were a "computer n00b". You obviously know a ton of shit about computers, but you know slightly less than the people who know the most about computers, so you say you are a "noob" just to be a prick. Here are the answers I always end up getting:

Answerer 1- "I am having the same exact problem on my Dell Inspirion F5 Rapety Roethlisberger! Someone please answer!"

Wow, thanks. Someone else has the same problem.

Answerer 2-"I am experiencing these troubles on my HP Dickmunch 5.498097 Hitlerjizz."

Fuck you. I don't need to know who else has this problem.

Answerer 3-"i am also having this same problem. Anyone have an answer?"

FUCK FUCK FUCK!

Scroll...scroll...scroll..scroll...

Answerer 280356932- "Configure the F98075 Hardon control panel terminal to 9017324 airplane asshole 26508 and then reset your hurrghghf and delete your hitlers."

Original Poster-"That didn't work"

I have given up. I am going to sit in this fucking room next to my printer until it finally prints my shit.

Horrible time for my printer to fail.

Just horrible.
