You know what's annoying? What's annoying is when ICQ refuses to connect. And so you disconnect and reconnect. Doesn't work. And so you turn off your computer. And you boot it again. Still doesn't work. I'm really annoyed. Uh-nwoyy-ed (complete with New Yorker drawl).
Telephone conversations no longer suffice. You can't talk on the phone at once to 10 people who are in different locations. You can't pretend to be anything because your voice betrays your emotions. You can't be a fake. Not that I'm a fake...
ICQ is good because it prevents you from shooting off your mouth. You actually have that split second more to really think about what you're saying as you type. On the phone, once it's out, it's out. There's no backspace key.
So we think about what a great disservice the people at ICQ do us by not doing whatever they should do to ensure that hapless people like me get to go online. But then we think, if not for them, we wouldn't have ICQ in the first place. And so the dispute continues...
"Business lunch" tomorrow with Lil and Cheryl. I hope Cheryl remembers. We will be discussing slimming issues. Or rather, Lilian will be interviewing Cheryl for her thesis. And I'll be checking out the male population. Will let you know if I see potential. I doubt it. Haha..
Righto, will be off now chaps. Tata!
