The horrors of computer cases and Corey flipping me off...

Here's something from a different Amy: I wouldn't buy the T-shirt as is because of the grammar error on it!


Earlier tonight, Corey was teasing me about how I thought that evil electricity gremlins lived in my computer. So he invited me to view his webcam on MSN as he opened his RUNNING computer: fair enough! Lots of carpeting, wires, blue and red things, nifty severed hand gags, and the devilish grin on his face... lovely visuals. :P (plus a skull, the Vancouver book I got him last year, a knapsack, grippers, and numerous other things around his room)


This is the conversation that we had:

Corey is inviting you to start viewing webcam. Do you want to accept (Alt+C) or decline (Alt+D) the invitation?

Corey says: okay.. let's explore the horrors of a computer case
Flami: Who wants to help me pack? says: hold on... I'm getting everything in order first... and you just screwed it up again :P

You have accepted the invitation to start viewing webcam.

Flami says: I see nothing!
have you died already? :P
Corey says: *rolleyes*
Flami says: well, it's true
Corey says: how about now?
Flami says: I don't see... oh wait, here we go
Corey says: okay, so that's a computer
Corey says: let's open it up and see what happens
Corey says: it's even running!
Corey says: so are you watching? :P you'll want to see all the blood and gore
Flami says: yep
Corey says: aaaah
Corey says: my hand!!!!
Flami says: .... do I even want to know what fake stuff is on your hand?!
Corey says: it's a nifty severed hand gag
Flami says: brown-speckled marshmallow
Corey says: okay, but seriously..
Corey says: see? I'm being horribly shocked and stuff
Flami says: it's all blue and white..
Corey says: these computers are death traps
Corey says: well, I have blue lights in there :P I turned them on so it isn't totally dark
Flami says: why is it all red then?
Corey says: I have some red fans in the back
Corey says: so there you go :P I don't know if you could see, but I touched pretty much everything in there with my bare fingers
Flami says: the computer could be a living US FLAG!
red, white, AND blue!
Corey says: there's no white :P the case is silver
Flami says: yeah, I saw...
Flami says: okay
Corey says: I have another one I can open up too, but you probably can't see anything in that one :P
Flami says: what.. your laptop?
Corey says: no
Corey says: that one
Corey says: that's supposed to be for playing with Linux, but the hard drives I have for it don't work, and if they work, they're too small :P there's two.. one's big enough and doesn't work, one works fine but is too small
Flami says: oh yeah. you're right. can't see a thing except the black darkness
Corey says: well, I think that's about it for the mysteries of a computer case, unless there's something else in there you need to see
Flami says: what's that?!
Corey says: is what?
Corey says: it's, uh... me on there right now
Flami says: that... thing..
Flami says: oh, haha
Flami says: I thought it was like a weird mannequin
Corey says: I'm a "that thing" now?
Flami says: COREY
Corey says: well, be nice :P
Flami says: YOU be nice! you just flipped me off.. you...
Corey says: well, you said I was some strange thing!
Corey says: and while that may be, it's still not nice to point that out
Flami says: hey, maybe you have weird mannequins and stuff lying around the computer room... how would I know?
Corey says: I have computers, guitars, grippers, and exercise stuff :P
Flami says: I see
Corey says: see? your favorite block of wood
Flami says: why does it look red and bloody?
Corey says: because you're seeing things? I don't know
Flami says: oh wait. maybe that's the floor
Corey says: woodtastic
Flami says: oh yeah
Corey says: I think that's about it :P I have a rubber bloody finger too, but we'll save that for the next time I'm demonstrating something incredibly dangerous
Flami says: ewww... yeah, sounds fair enough
Corey says: and it's right here!!!
Corey says: oh wait, that was a regular finger
Flami says: is that yet another excuse to flip me off again?!
Corey says: of course!
Corey says: so now you can flip me off at least twice for no good reason
Corey says: I was also thinking about loading something like lemonparty on the screen so you'd be forced to look at that
Corey says: it worked with Jane :D
Flami says: COREY!
Corey says: so that's a no on lemonparty?
Flami says: what do YOU think?! :P
Corey says: I could show you what I was watching just now instead, I guess
Flami says: fine, if it's nothing too gross
Corey says: never :P
Flami says: uh-huh
Flami says: ewwwwwww [I saw a lot of blood on screen]
Corey says: horror movie special :P
Flami says: looks like it!
Corey says: that part is basically just 900 gore clips from movies :P
Corey says: some of it was from Braindead :P so it's nothing new
Corey says: wow, I got a Friendster message from "sophie"
Corey says: so which porn site do you think "she" advertises for?
Flami says: I wouldn't know... although you remember the message I got from "Emma" on ICQ once...
Corey says: well, it's not even showing a message on here
Flami says: so what happened?
Corey says: oh, I have to click "new messages" :P
Flami says: .... that'll do it :P
Corey says: Subject: You are perfect!

Now we're just discussing Friendster, OK Cupid, and weird messages. Ah, now I understand what they say about how viewing people's webcams for non-sexy stuff makes you feel closer to the person somehow. Sure you can use webcams for the sexy stuff too, but I guess all that depends on the nature of your relationship or whether you're just a slutty camwhore. ;) (but we're not in a romantic relationship OR slutty camwhores!) We should definitely both sleep soon, though... especially since we need to get up in seven or so hours! *zzzzz*
