There once was a girl with a laptop
Who got real upset when it cracked up.
She went to the shop
But the guy was a sop.
So she left the poor full all smacked up.
Eh - the best I could do.
Funny timing, you hating your Mac Book so much right now. Does this mean I should stick with my PC? :)
Um, a limerick... Okay, this one isn't for the kiddies.
'There once was a girl from Nantucket (work with me here)
Whose MacBook was broke, she said "F*ck it!"
She bought a brand new PC
And shouted "At least it works. Yippee!"
And told the guy at the genius store to suck it.'
Okay, so in a warped reality you might trade in your Mac for a PC, but it rhymed better.
lol i love the 1st one
Ok, my comment got eaten.
I am not a poet, so I won't even try. But to the people above, Macs on their worst day are still better than PCs. Trust me on this as I use both.
Kristin, I hope yours is fixed soon. Oh and your question at my place cracked me up. You live in the boonies. ;)
I cried 'til my eyes were all red;
My laptop, alas, it was dead.
I'm probably being too soft
o'er a 'puter that's nipples aloft
But it's my little laptop, you see;
And it meant happy blogging to me.
And for making it all such a hassle,
Genius Bar Guy, you're an asshole.
I'm too high on cold meds to try. SOrry. But these poems are great thus far.
I once had a laptop named Mac
Who acted like he was on crack
He needed a fix and he needed it fast
But the Genius Bar Guy was blowing smoke up my ass
So then I was left with jack!
Ok, here's my off the top quick entry...
Kristen’s laptop is broken,
The guys at Genius Bar must be smokin’
They need to get on the ball
And give that Mac an overhaul
What a shame
To keep her out of the game
Cuz without her wit
Readers are left in a twit
Hope it's fixed soon!
My laptop is broken
It makes me want to cry
And the genius who thinks he can fix it
Can take it in the pie!
Carrie
Let me try again, I didn't like the last one...
There once was a laptop that sucked
It caused Kristin all sorts of buck
She sure wasn't happy
As she mourned for ole' Lappy
And ranted to Genius Bar guy
He sure didn't listen
as she screamed that girl..Kristin
To Fix her dear old friend.
One more time he avoided her eye
And Kristin was on the loose
No more waiting or screaming
At last it was time
And she kicked his sorry Caboose!!
The genius bar guy is a d*ck
People like that make me sick
Referrals are late
I'm so filled with hate
Why would Apple employ such a pr*ck?
you fully have enough material here to write a book. or perhaps a commercial to counter the genius ones Mac's doing right now.
"Hi, I'm a Mac"
"And I'm a PC"
Those a freaking brilliant.
Even if the guy from the genius bar is an asshole.
I don't have a poem, but the guy at the genius bar was an asshole to us too! Possibly the same guy? :)
I had a computer, it died, it died.
The poor old motherboard, she fried, she fried.
They said they'd fix it, they lied, they lied.
All shop repairers are assholes, denied, denied.
With heavy heart
and pained fingers
I threw the dammed machine
at the wall
'Foul Apple!' cried I
Foul apple, foul mac, foul, foul, foul.
The end.
Laptop, laptop, keys once so useful to tap
Now you're naught but a lump of plastic and crap
Once you were my constant companion and joy
And now you're useful as doorstop or dog toy
Once you were there for me, data you did process
You were well worth that huge price of excess
And now, e'en broken, you're no longer my star,
But you're still smarter than that guy in the Genius Bar.
There once was was a man from Nantucket,
Who packed all his things in a bucket.
He got a job as a salesman stat
And sold Kristin a bad Mac
And consequently got told to go suck it!
Aw crap. I should have read Mrs. Chicky's comment before entering mine. Now I look like at copycat. Oh well, hers is better, anyway! Sorry, Mrs. Chicky!
I have a pole for that guy who was an asshole.
He works at the Genius Bar....I want to hit him with my car.
My PC went PP and it didn't please me.
So I called the Superheros of Help...I hope they choke on kelp.
I have a pole for that guy who was an asshole
I have a place to stick it to make him chirp like a cricket.
Okay - it's really bad...sorry - but I'm not much of a poet.
LOL
lap top:
crap. stopped.
genius bar:

satisfaction?

Server status:
