Parents who expect me to come running every time something goes wrong
with *their* computer

Well you are a computer expert, what do you expect.

(I don't do Windoze for free - if they want it fixed they can sodding
well pay me to fix it.

If they charge you for the electricity you use and the heating you keep
on all the time as well as rent then they should pay you for your
expertise.

I pay for my food, etc.,

You can't expect them to keep your nose-bag topped up, just a weeks
worth of your nose-bag could pay for 26 kids in Africa to be fed for a
month.

and they demand free services.

No point in keeping a dog and barking yourself.

They won't run an AV, they use IE and Outhouse Excrement, they open
attachments from gods' only know where, obviously without scanning
'em because they've not got anything to scan 'em with; I'm running an
online AV now and the system's riddled with crap. Fortunately, it's
taken me all day, but I've managed to fix it (I think!) without
having to reinstall the ruddy OS.

You are truely amazing, have you thought about a career in IT?

I'm now downloading a 30-day, uncrippled, trial of an AVP, and then,
tonight, I'll run PerfectDisk (a far superior disc defragmentation app
than the one included with 'doze which is, quite frankly, ***. PD
also defragments core system and boot files) tonight and that should
be that.

You are a genius and go beyond all expectations.

They also expect me to find £200+


Now come on, you don't really expect anyone to believe that do you?


for the full version of Office Pro 2007 (I can't afford the 'full'
licence, but there are plenty of sites selling the academic version).
Oh, I daresay I'll get it back eventually, but it's more than a
week's money for me.

Can you tell us where you get that money from, it's obviously not from
earning it as you don't work.

I have to do it soon because the trial they've been using is just
about out.

What did they use before their present trial, have you forgotten what
you have told us before :-)

I've spent most of the day screaming, crying, and shaking
uncontrollably

You scweamed and scweamed until you were sick?

(which obviously has meant that this whole thing has
taken about 10 times longer than it would have done when I was well).

Obviously you will be reducing your bill for the amount of time you were
scweaming and shaking.

I am alone.

How many times have I told you to get yourself a Rabbit, you will never
be alone with a Rabbit, even if you wear the batteries out it can still
be your friend :-)

The only 2 people I can call friends are 200+ miles away.

You are not calling becs a friend are you? surely not, a friend wouldn't
do what you have done to her friend's husband :-)

I need a cuddle, not a virtual one - a *REAL* one.

You know that's not going to happen :-)

They (my parents) have been on my case all week about Office (when
they could easily look themselves) and in my face to fix the problems
*THEY* caused today.

As I said, no point in keeping a dog and barking yourself.

I just need someone to put their arms around me and hold me

Go into Uxbridge and cuddle up to the drunks, if they have consummed
enough you may even look attractive to them.

- I've had enough.

Again?

One of my friends

Don't push reality too far, no one believes you have more than one
friend.

suggested that I move up to be nearer her in Manchester but, every
time I contemplate the prospect, I become paralysed and crippled with
sheer terror and fear at the prospect.

Is that because you wouldn't have your parents to sponge off?

I want out. And I mean *OUT*. I want to murder the pair of 'em; they
know damned fucking well I can't leave, and that's how they like it.

Be sensible, you know they would love for you to move out, but you can't
afford it as are not prepared to take responsibility for yourself and
get a job. Perhaps now that MacDonalds are doing degrees in frying you
could avail yourself of their kindness and at least you could keep your
nose-bag filled.

I have no support from any medical services here because they have
decreed that I should be denied it (please don't ask, I am in no fit
state to go into any kind of detail).

Can you give us some more details of the services you say are denied to
you, we could all write to your MP and see if we can help you get them
reinstated at tax payers expense, maybe even get you a few months
holiday at no expense to yourself.


On top of all this, I've had disabling PMT for the past fortnight and
I know damned fucking well that I am *NOT* going to get a period this
time round (I had one a couple of months ago, and it's far too soon -
for those of you wondering,

Nobody was wondering, nobody is interested.

I have PCOS and PID which means my reproductive system is well and
truly fecked and, because I have IBS my bowels are up *** creek*
without the proverbial.

Do you wash your own knickers or do you get your mum to do it for you?

*I think that's supposed to be some kind of weak joke.

I think you mean *** joke :-)

Had enough. Fifteen years or so ago all this would have been a minor
problem (I was still ill then, but I wasn't as crippled as I am
now...)

Lazyitis and workshyness are not illnesses, get off your lard arse and
take responsibility for your own life.

<hug>s to all,

Shudder.
