Future reference: If you want to fuck someone over, a Windows password doesn't do anything, really. They can just factory reset it via F8, or use a bootable tool to remove the password. DBAN the whole drive. Also, write up an agreement for yourself and the consumer outlining your rights to things handed over to you in the event you will not be paid.

 

To answer your question: I don't give a damn about your sexuality if it's not affecting me or others. Do as you please, so long as it doesn't affect others without their consent.

this guy barely knows how to plug in a USB cord (mouse/keyboardect)...chance are he'll go to the ONLY other shop in town. they will charge him a 96$ diagnosis fee. and then a windows 7 re installation fee..........of which will be close to 400-500$

its the only shop it has no competition............except me now.

I dont really see the need to do all that bs. it would just cause more trouble. itd get me my money sure but im not gonna lose sleep over 15$. :P but i will fck'im over so he pays more in the end.

Well im pretty well known around this rinky dink town of like 4000 people. Specially because of the computer work.

Which theres a FB page for.

Which has my personal FB on it

Which has my sexuality on it.

Which they were using to message me.

My guess is they peeked?

the conversation literally went

"Your laptop is almost done installing windows 7. that'll be 15$ total"

"Fuck you faggot you can go suck a dick for all i care fuck you and your 15$"

c:

 

 

 

Well i see it as this. if someones preparing your food...don't piss them off and expect them not to spit in it.

same goes with computers for me

and now they can go pay a non faggot to help them :P

And that would be the moment I'd call the police on his ass and give him the finger. Seriously some people are such dicks...

Nobody said this is the last time it'll happen. And I'm not too sure how you're affording to get money out of Windows reinstalls unless you're using illegal copies, or using keys off r/microsoftsoftwareswap, in which case you're making little-no money whatsoever?

are you serious? ive tried talking to him. he threatened to hurt me if i ever come near him again. he's afraid ill "infect" his kids. this is no mistake.

this is black and white simple as that. i wont post the whole conversation that would be just wrong. but i will tell you flat out 100%. it is because i am demisexual.

 

I don't know what to say to you man, it sounds like the guy's got a screw loose. There's a time and a place for making a stand but I don't think this is it.

 

Just text the guy his password and (if you can do so truthfully) tell him that you had no idea that he would have been so upset by this and that had you known you wouldn't have taken the job.

 

...and yes, I know things shouldn't have to be like that, but we don't live in a perfect world.

 

It's a clean install right?

Okay. But are you sure you're doing the right thing? The guy sounds like bad news.

 

Edit: but what I meant was you didn't get angry and put a bunch of crap on it right?

Then again, my opinions on sexuality are weird, and I have neither the time or inclination to explain them all.

Its....weird. I find myself attracted to certain things that I am opposed to for evolutionary reasons.

 

Not that those things should be illegal or anything, but I don't think they should receive the same tax benefits that breeding heterosexual couples do, then again, quite a lot of breeding heterosexual couples shouldn't be allowed to procreate to begin with lol

Honestly, if i were in a similar position, i would do something much worse to that computer. Like make it shutdown after 10 minutes every time, my friend used to screw up the computers at school a fair bit.

Dude, seriously, it's easy enough for you to say that (or for any of us to sit here and say screw the guy) but it's not us that's living down the road from him and it's not us he's threatening with violence for potentially "infecting his kids". It's easy to be brave when you're thousands of miles away...just saying.

Well (from what you write it seems like) it's a small town and it's probably best not to let yourself get pushed around but there's no sense in putting yourself in real danger.

 

Maybe just keep your ear to the ground and keep an eye on things re. how everyone else is feeling about this. If everyone around you starts telling you you should probably give him his password than it might not hurt to listen to them...

 

...On the other hand, if they're behind you and supporting you (it still doesn't mean this guy might not freak out (he sounds like he's got issues)) then maybe just stand your ground?

lol dude i dont judge. i just love workin with computers :P sexuality and computers should be as far away relateably as anythign else. if anyone messes with you cause of your sexuality :P hit'em with some pocket sand.

WELL i wanted to mess it up to the point where i could fix it easily. a simple password is it.

Im not afraid of this man. in the slightest. im more worried about where the fck my drumming socks went off too. double bass with bare feet fckin suck

also im stubborn. i think youve noticed that. i dont quite budge from a little threat. ive had people point guns at me in this redneck town. theres little he can do to scare me.

 

AAAND on that one. im gonna say. i have lots of supporters. i mean. i could legally go to the cops and say he's threatening a business. or just start an upfront fee to avoid this. theres alot of things. but in the least. im not worried about it.
