i check the site every day..like 5 to 6 times.... and ALWAYS check the buy/sell/trade forum.....even tho i am poor and cant buy anything...lol

Same here dude. I seem to be coming back more and more. Gf seems to be getting more and more annoyed all the time

I joined the forum after reading some great stuff when I was buying my current rig and just keep coming back. Guess I should seriously get a more frequent job so I could afford new hw more often. Now it's more like get an idea for a rig -> work for six months -> come home -> buy a new rig -> start planning the next rig -> go to work again.

At some point I should probably use some of that money to pay the morgage off :laugh:

Haha, when I was at my ex-gfs house, I used to check TPU every now an then. She was always like:
- You on that site again? Go off that stupid site now! *rubs boobs on my back*
- But I need to check the new reviews, and there are responds on my thread, and look at that sweet new GPU
- GF leaves annoyed

:laugh:

Inioch · Jun 21, 2009

I can definitely relate to that :laugh:

Why is it that you always find the most interesting threads when you're supposed to go to sleep?

Like last night, I got back from work @ 6am, thought I'd just check Hattrick and TPU, ended up spending 2,5h browsing the threads here. Gf wakes up at around 8 and didn't quite appriciate the necessity of TPU at that hour when I was supposed to be sleeping :ohwell:

I admit as she was standing next to me only wearing panties I let go of TPU :laugh:

Womens weapons always work.

Inioch · Jun 21, 2009

We are weak my friends. Have to admit it, they can make us do mostly anything just by asking, while wearing nothing but panties :ohwell:

Triprift · Jun 21, 2009

All one can say to that is: :respect:

This is one of those threads that I don't want the gf to see. Requires some heavy usage of tabs. (small apartment)

I don't think about TPU or hardware, I need my blood elsewhere during this special time.

Actually I want to tidy up my room. It looks like a friggin shop. Computer parts everywhere. But I end up here every five minutes, damnit.

thanks to my awesome skills, i managed the following:

Lug 40" HDTV out of my room, back to lounge (1 minute)
Install windows 7 from USB (14 minutes)
check emails for TPU notifications
Install drivers, antivirus, windows updates, reboot (4 minutes)
check emails for TPU notifications
reboot while lugging TV back to bedroom (1 minute)
check emails for TPU notifications
login via remote desktop, setup utorrent/DC++ hub/TS2 server (3 minutes)
check emails for TPU notifications
*now*

just doing it so often has got me into a routine where i can have a PC up and gaming ready from a blank hard drive, in under 30 minutes

There are many sites like TPU. I tried quite some, most of them being German (no language barrier lol)... but TPU just has that certain something that makes it stand out.
