But the things you said you would like sound pretty good, I hope one day you will be able to have them on your computer

My step dad's a complete ass hole when it comes to the computer. He dictates everything about it. It drives me insaine. He doesn't know anything about computers at all, so you can't convince him into being able to do anything on the settings.
He thinks that whenever you save something, it's going to take up the memory. Even stuff done on paint, or microsoft word. He says that the files are going to cause to computer to over flow and then we wont be able to do anthing with it.
I tried to explain to himhow small an MP3 was once when he started b*tching at me about having too many songs on the computer, and he wouldn't listen to a thing I said. He saw a file that said 560 kb and he was all like, "What the f*ck, look at all the memory that's taking up!"
He told us to save everything we had onto a bunch of floppy's and I tried to tell him how useless they were, but he just said that if the files are too big to store on the discs, then they shouldn't be on the computer in the first place.
So freedome is a fine comodity when it comes to what I can do on the computer. But one of the plus side of him not knowing anything about the computer is that all I have to do is put my files in a hidden folder and he will never find them.
But he also thinks that if I got MSN, AIM, or any other chatting crap on my computer, he thinks that it will give us a bunch of viruses and cost us a hundred dollars a month. There's no reasoning with him.
