I’ll be straight with it. I’m a smoker, I smoke inside, I have a PC that is also inside. I want to clean my PC thoroughly to buy it a few more years. I know about the q tip method, and the compressed air, and general methods of cleaning out gunk and junk from PC parts. But this boy is way too gunked up for a regular cleaning. So, I reckon, the easiest way to clean it is to dunk the dirtiest parts in a bath of isopropyl alcohol. I was considering acetone at first, but it’s way too strong of a solvent, and alcohol should be better at dissolving organic residues. Is this a good idea?
I hereby submit this query to the council, and await judgement.
You’re no fun at all.
You talk about it like it’s such a big problem. It’s just a slightly harmful addiction. And if there’s no danger, where’s the fun? All the good things in life are at least slightly dangerous or harmful. Drugs, acohol, partying, sex, traveling, even sports and recreational activities. I am aware of the harm, and fine with it. I could spend my life thinking about preserving it, eating healthy, going to the gym, watching my hormone levels and nutrition. But that would be hell. Why live for a long time if every minute of that life is spent worrying about it ending? Why worry? Taking calculated risks is a part of life. The pitfall is not knowing the risk and still taking it.
Or at least that’s how I see it.
My feelings have little to nothing to do with my state of mind. I can feel no joy in life and know that it is worth living. I don’t need a therapist. All the “Mental Health Professionals” I worked with were unable to handle me. So what? I don’t have my shit together, and I probably never will. Why should I pretend that THIS is the part of life I should worry about? I have bigger problems than quitting smoking or being happy. For now, it’s an unhealthy coping mechanism, and I’m fine with it.
But, you know, thanks for the motivational speech and all. 👍
