I’m sure this has been around the net dozens of times… (Installing Love)

Tech Support: Yes, how can I help you?

Customer: Well, after much consideration, I’ve decided to install Love. Can you guide me through the process?

Tech Support: Yes. I can help you. Are you ready to proceed?

Customer: Well, I’m not very technical, but I think I’m ready. What do I do first?

Tech Support: The first step is to open your Heart. Have you located your Heart?

Customer: Yes, but there are several other programs running now. Is it okay to install Love while they are running?
Tech Support: What programs are running?

Customer: Let’s see, I have Past Hurt, Low Self-esteem, Grudge, and Resentment running right now.

Tech Support: No problem, Love will gradually erase Past Hurt from your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent memory, but it will no longer disrupt other programs. Love will eventually override Low Self-esteem with a module of its own called High Self-esteem. However, you have to completely turn off Grudge and Resentment. Those programs prevent Love from being properly installed. Can you turn those off?

Customer: I don’t know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?

Tech Support: With pleasure. Go to your start menu and invoke Forgiveness. Do this as many times as necessary until Grudge and Resentment have been completely erased.

Customer: Okay, done! Love has started installing itself. Is that normal?

Tech Support: Yes, but remember that you have only the base program. You need to begin connecting to other Hearts in order to get the upgrades.

Customer: Oops! I have an error message already. It says, “Error – Program not run on external components”. What should I do?

Tech Support: Don’t worry. It means that the Love program is set up to run on Internal Hearts, but has not yet been run on your Heart. In non-technical terms, it simply means you have to Love yourself before you can Love others.

Customer: So, what should I do?

Tech Support: Pull down Self-Acceptance; then click on the following files: Forgive-Self; Realize your Worth; and Acknowledge your Limitations.

Customer: Okay, done.

Tech Support: Now, copy them to the “My Heart” directory. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching faulty programming. Also, you need to delete Verbose Self-criticism from all directories and empty your Recycle Bin to make sure it is completely gone and never comes back.

Customer: Got it. Hey! My heart is filling up with new files. Smile is playing on my monitor and Peace and Contentment are copying themselves all over My Heart. Is this normal?

Tech Support: Sometimes. For others it takes awhile, but eventually everything gets in at the proper time. So, Love is installed and running. One more thing before we hang up. Love is Freeware. Be sure to give it and its various modules to everyone you meet. They will in turn share it with others and return some cool modules back to you.

Customer: Wow, thanks so much for your help!

Tech Support: You’re welcome

    I have no idea of whether or not I have seen this before, but I know that I haven’t ever *gotten* it at the level that I did just now. Thank you for putting this out there in a place where I ran into it. (big smile)

    and I’ve Friended you (if you don’t know who I am, ask or , but I suspect that directive alone is enough information to properly peg me).

        Some people do better than others with linking LJ names and IRL names. Or maybe I’m infamous??? Or notorious?

        I’m of the “your kink is okay, my not-kink is okay” persuasion, so use that to figure out if I’m suitable for any particular. Note: if you add me to a filter that I decide I’m not intersted in reading, I will let you know. Do you want in on my poly filter (which is where some of that stuff resides for me)?

          Sounds wonderful.

          I will put you on the ‘not too innocent, but doesn’t want graphic freaky details’ part of the blog. 🙂

    Cute…

    Except that it doesn’t address the separation between the NRE loader/installer, lustful GUI, and background utility LTR cron jobs…

            he is a rocket scientist, or at least a NASA employee, though technically more of a roboticist and geologist.

            with perfect proportions where it counts.

            I’ve also run Shuttle flight experiments and space vehicle software projects (X-34, Station), so that should be good enough to wear the shirt ;).

        Something like 95% of my posts are friends only. He probably can’t see the post.

        Not to mention that I don’t think he has been reading me in general.

        *wave at Brian type*

          right, but you know, there is the standard “Hey Sweetie! my other sweetie’s new interest is doing something neat! Come look!” kinda thing going on, right?

            we’re like that. A lot.

            almost an insane about of mutual admiration and adoration.

            have you yet been let in on the sinister plot to sow seeds of love and self-acceptance everywhere?
