Thats why I call my associates "associates" and not friends

So after trying to get help building and finding parts for a new PC for about two months I got no help. Fed up I went with a build from a custom build site with some upgrades. Four hours later I'm getting messages left and right from tech "friends" (five in total) tossing out their suggestions and showing builds they made that are a bit better and a bit less; and telling how it only took them five minutes to make when their bored.

I really dislike the real people I know.

The correct answer is, "And if you'd come down from your tower to help me when I asked, the money I spent on MY computer would be in YOUR hands instead of theirs. But you didn't do that, did you?"

Well they somewhat redeemed themselves today at the lan party.
Shooting them a lot helped my mood.
Also despite owning the Orange Box my PC could never handle it,so I've only played my copy of Portal on a friends computer, but today I got to use my copy of TF2 on one of the colleges PC.
Also got the Iron Kurtain achievement.

Hmm.

I wouldn't have thought to suggest shooting them.
