OsamaBinAthlon+ Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 Just curious do your parents support your computing habits or do they get pissed you spend your hard earned money on tech stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlowerKing Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 Just curious do your parents support your computing habits or do they get pissed you spend your hard earned money on tech stuff.

UncleDavid218 Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 They support it for the most part, because they know it will potentially lead to other things. But when I told them I wanted to spend $800 on two computer monitors, they just about went nuts. My dad is a business owner, so he doesnt like to see me excessively spending money. But he does it to, so the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Timmay Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 Would be nice to have that kinda "support". But that completely aside, at least you have tasteful mods and not just the biggest baddest GPU's you can find and then sit on 3D05/6 all day gloating about your scores.

UncleDavid218 Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 Haha, yeah. I pay for it all so it's not worth it to me to keep buying $500+ video cards every 6 months, mainly because I couldn't come close to affording it, but also because I know that's no way to get any respect.

fst h2o Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 My parents would have freaked out if I wanted to spend $800 on two monitors. Heck, I don't think any of their computers themselves even cost that much. I suppose there is an upside to moving out, getting a job, and becoming financially independent of my parents. All they can do now is shake their heads when I'm talking to them about getting another computer (the one in my sig is only 8 months old, and I have another one that's about two years old). The downside is a lot more responibility, and much less free time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Esau Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 Yea I know my Folks just dont get it with me either! Actually they think I am quite looney tunes for doing what I do and cant understand the obsession that I have with all of it. Ever since my car wreck I have been at my folks house on the Mainland recovering and I just have to do something to be creative and use my mind! Considering that I have been working with my hands since I was 16 years old its kinda hard not tearing stuff apart and redoing it, or just creating stuff!
