Here's the deal...

...I hate technology. I have an HP Photosmart scanner/printer combo, here's some advice; don't ever buy a scanner/printer combo or anything from HP for that matter. I've printed plenty of shit through it, very slowly mind you. Last night, for the first time ever, I try to scan a paper and it worked, once, ONCE.

For my job I have to scan invoices. I have about thirty invoices on a deadline to be scanned. I try scanning my second piece of paper and lo and behold "Scanner error, try turning printer on and off to resolve issue". How about try turning it off and on thirty times? That's right I barely had any sleep trying to get the piece of shit to work. God I hate technology. It's like supposed to make our lives EAAASIIEEEER, except life is already easy and we don't need it.

GAH, so what do I do next? I try downloading an app on my android, a scanning app. Turboscan, apparently it works on iphones, except it doesn't work the same on android. Apparently you can't adjust DPI or file size/quality on android and you can on iphone. A very necessary thing for my job. I only paid to find this out. So what do I do? I go on the play store to leave a review and kindly let them know that this app is nothing short of a steaming pile of feculence. The developer writes a response to my review which for some reason the play store won't let me see (because it's like technology). However, judging by how they responded to everyone else's reviews I would say they told me to e-mail their tech support. I guess you're not paid enough to copy/paste, or maybe you'd rather send a passive aggressive fuck you to the reviewer for being kind to your baby.

Did I mention I hate technology? Anyway, now I am supper short on time, so I get an iphone from my parents to get turboscan because according to my co-workers it has all the desired features on it and in order to purchase it, the app store asks me for the app store id, which my parents don't fucking know because my brother set it up for them and he is in Japan stuffing his face with sushi and fucking whales while I struggle with technology.

GAHHHH, I am so angry I could throw this computer out the window. This fucknig computer, amidst all my woes with the scanner and phones and shit, I decide to calm down by making a song (about how much I hate technology) through fruity loops on this computer and guess what? This computer spits in my face. That's right, I record the damn instrumental and then for whatever reason it wouldn't record my voice. Does that make any sense? I tried googling if it makes any sense but AVG had hijacked my browser and everything took three times longer to google making me quit life. I don't know maybe upgrading to windows 8.1 wasn't such a great idea.

Here's the deal, I hate technology. Today on the way to various appointments I got caught by every single red light. Did I mention how much I hate being in the car? What am I doing in the car? All this technology, for what? So I can go to work, so I can study shit, so I can get more money, so I can get a better car, so I can get a better phone, so I can get a better computer, so I can get a better TV, so I can get a better job... Is that EASIER life?

Did I ever mention not too long ago I spent some time in a hostel in the jungles of Capurgana? Owned by a very intelligent french girl whom offered me a job there? All I did in Capurgana is lay in a hamock, get up to go buy some lentils to cook and swim. I did also help the french girl fix some pipes, no pun intended, which is why she offered me the job. That's easy life, did I mention they almost don't have internet there and they have no cars, only horses? Capuuurrrrgana, that's eaaaasssyyyyy life. What the fuck am I doing here?

I seriously need some sleep.
