Techno-himbo II The Attack of the Clones

Stop the press! There shall be no moaning about the unavailability of single men in Malacca anymore... I've finally found where all the cute single guys have been hiding. Actually spent an hour this afternoon getting myself shoved and jostled against a bevy of hot, sweaty guys - sure most of them are probably not gay or even bicurious but hell, they make some pretty cute eye candy.

I'm obviously talking about the PC fair here in Malacca. Since I needed a pen-drive, I decided to make a trip to check out the bargains there. And what can I say, boys will be boys - and obviously the place was packed with them. Well, forget about the stereotypical techgeek with the thick glasses and the leaking pens... there are some techno-hotties over here, that's for sure.

Somehow during the trip I got talked into two pen-drives, some DVDs, an MP3 player and a broadband subscription. What can I say? A sexy salesman in a tight blue shirt ( showing off some pretty nifty pecs, I tell ya! The way those cute nips hardened, I would have given him my firstborn! ) can talk me into anything. Unfortunately I must have drooled all over him like a mentally challenged Neanderthal himbo with an oversexed drive - since...
a) I didn't understand half the bits he was blabbering about since I'm essentially a techno-himbo who can't handle anything vaguely mechanical
b) I was much too busy wondering whether I should bite into his left nipple - that actually seemed to be making overtures

But I believe the Cute Techno-hottie did mention something about whether my new laptop supports some thingamajig and whether it was capable of some whatcamaccalit.

One thing I know ( hell it sounds vaguely medical! ) is that I need to get a good anti-virus application for my new laptop. That's gonna be another chore - figuring out what to get and how to get it up :)... see why I need a macho techno-hottie for a boyfriend?

Yup, those sexy salesmen reel us in every time. :oD I have no idea what a pen-drive is, but I'm sure he could have talked me into one anyway.

So Paul, did you persaude him to come round to your house to set up the broadband etc. for you? ;o)

savante said...

A pen drive is a... help me out here, guys!

I did persuade him to come over to set it up actually :) Hell, you know me too well.

He must be talking about anti-virus program. McAfee is usually a good program although some would prefer Norton instead but those are not free anymore. I suggest go to http://www.download.com and browse around the anti-virus section to get some free one.

Also you need the anti-spyware program as well. Get both Ad-aware and Spybot Search & Destroy. You will found both at the URL above. And run both of them about once a week or preferably after you visit the sort of website that would require some cleaning later :) It is vital to keep your computer save nowadays since the law did not keep up with the wrong-doers...

Pen-drive? I think that's also known as thumb-drive? It's a flash base memory card with USB connector. Very useful and with large capacity it is a much better alternative than using diskette

Hey, you added more to your blog entry since my first comment. :oD

Yes, Techno-hottie definitely sounds droolable-over (gak! bad English! You'd never think I was a writer, would you? :oD ).

Well done for getting him to come over! (Do you think the new sexy brunette look helped?) So ask Techno-hottie about anti-virus protection too (no offence, Pete), 'cause then he can come back and help you get it up. ;o)

i try my best to be a good quiet viewer of ur blog but i really need to blurt this out... if you don't mind... why on earth do u need to buy two pen drives and a mp3 player in a pc fair?!?!?! first, do you know that mp3 player can work as pen drive to store files as well... and why two pen drives? unless u were buying for someone, u could just use the money for two pen drives to buy a pen drives with larger capacity, like one gb... oh... u so need a "macho techno-hottie boyfriend" or in my opinion - ur ISO... :p

ahem... pardon me... sorry if it sounds kinda rude... if u wonder why was i so over-acting just now... coz i just miss my chance to see a blond doctor! that is why...

It seems that Paul's brain was out for lunch when he saw the saleman's perky nipples poking from the shirt...

chowhofun is right. You Definately Do Not Need two pen-drives... One is more than enough and yes all mp3 player (even those iPod style) also work as pen-drives...

Better try to siphon the unneccesary items to your colleagues?

Anonymous said...

Or you could get Techno-Hottie to refund/exchange the unwanted items.

Darnit! Still thinking about those nips ... :oP

savante said...

A MP3 works as a pen drive?! :0 I so did not know that! But certainly no need to refund the items. I always need more space since I'm frequently moving stuff from here to there - and keeping it all in a 1 GB drive would mean losing it all completely if I were to drop it somewhere ( which I'm actually liable to do ) so I do need more than one actually.

At least I managed to get chowhofun to blurt out something. Hi, BTW :) You seem to know some stuff about computers... are you by any chance single?

OMG ! What a coincidence, Paul ?!! I was there at Mahkota Parade browsing through the stuffs at PC Fair. I was a lil dissapointed at how small the venue is. Well, I guess that's understandable, looking at the number of stalls they had set up. You should definitely check out the PWTC's PC Fair next time. There's even more cute geeky salesmen to ogle at.

Unfortunately for me, I couldn't spot any blonde dude ?!! Hehe. Bummer !! ;-p

Seriously, you've been unattached for FAR too long, Paul. You need a bf ASAP !! LOL.

savante said...

Ahmad, you were there today?! My hair's been toned down from the blonde - and it's dark brown with reddish highlights.. sort of. Hell, if I'd seen you - I'd have gotten attached to you. :)

Jay said...

Oah, and people keep calling ME a geek :-p Well, I suppose a pen drive (or two!) can help fill up those nights when you're alone. Hope you got the ones with good girth.

Will said...

Yes, more space the better! You need it for all the porn you're gonna be downloading off the net for free with the broadband!

Bwahahahaha what's this information worth to you my medical friend?

Still thinking about those hard nips ... inviting ... teasing ...

So Paul, what was Cute Techno-Hottie's butt like? You can't tell me you didn't notice. ;o)

Anonymous said...

er... sorry paul... i am still in jailbait age... haha... kidding... yes i am single and yes i know some stuff about computers since i am an IT student but no i am not a macho techno-hottie... haha... :p

Zemien said...

Mmmm... you're a salesman's favourite kind of customer!

With the amount you spent on TWO pen drives and an MP3 player, you could have spent it on me instead. :P Sigh...

Regarding antivirus, McAfee should be simple enough for you. Avoid Norton - their software slows down your computer too much. I personally use Avast! Antivirus. It's free and quite small in size. And no, I'm not shouting, the name is Avast! with the exclaimation.

Anonymous said...

Paul, Avast is what I used to use. Pretty good.

I now use AVG from Grisoft--it's also free.

And you still haven't emailed me. I'm so hurt. LOLOL.

savante said...

Jay, the pen-drives are temporary till I find the real thing :)

Will, it's worth one night... of dinner! But then again, you're a rich dude, you can probably buy your own dinner.

ru, I actually didn't notice his butt. Seriously. There were too many people milling about and I couldn't have my eyes straying to his butt - especially when I was focusing on his chest.

Thanks for the antivirus ideas. WIll definitely check it out.
