Eat your heart out, Christiaan Bernard

July 10th, 2009

Me: Welcome back.

Laptop: Gee!  Thanks.  Like you care.

Me: There is no need for that attitude, and please don’t use those Americanisms.

Laptop: You send me off to that bloody hospital, and this is the kind of greeting I get on return?

Me: How are you, anyway?

Laptop: How the fuck do you think I am?  You send me off to that hell-hole where I get my heart ripped out.  How would you fucking feel?

Me: Don’t be so melodramatic.  It was only a hard disk replacement.

Laptop: Jeeeesus!!! It may only be a hard disk to you, mate, but to me it’s my whole essence; my being; my self.

Me: You’re worse than an old woman.

Laptop: Thanks for the card, by the way.

Me: What card?

Laptop: Exactly! I didn’t expect a visit, but you might have gone to the trouble of sending a get well card.

Me: They don’t make get well cards for laptops.

Laptop: Why the fuck not?  You humans really piss me off sometimes.

Me: Will you ever stop whinging?  You are home, aren’t you?

Laptop: With the warm welcome I’m getting, I’d be better off back in there.

Me: I can always overclock you?

Laptop: Aw! For fuck’s sake!

Me: Just behave.  OK?

Laptop: *sigh*
