Yes this really is the kind of shit I'm going to talk about.

I am really, really horrble at holding a house together. Today I bought some groceries and did a rack of dishes. This is slightly misleading since I still have about 3 racks of dishes to wash. I also made plans to go out to the splashpad with the kids my cousin thus avoiding dishes EVEN MORE. I suck. I have until the 16th to clean my house. This is a shitty goal. I should stay up tomorrow and do dishes and play Sims3.

Yesterday I found my Sims disk. Yeah I'm the kind of loser who still buys a hard copy, eat me. Anyway I was so excited I'd been looking for it for like 2 weeks. YES I CAN PLAY SIMS 3. Except my kids hate me and manged to lose,( eat, distroy, whatever) my manual thus leaving me without a Key. I died a little inside and then found out that EA loves me and all I have to do is email them and they'll tell me what it is. So I wait about 4 hours. You know crocheting, playing with kids, sitting on my but ignore the complete mess in my kitchen. DAMMIT THEY ARE NEVER SENDING ME A CODE. So I pull up my big girl panties and google til I find one that works. of course I get everything installed and YOU'VE GOT MAIL DUMBASS.

So I email my code to myself and my husband to guarentee we both have it and it's never ever lost again right. However I get ragey over weird shit and seeing the response to my request almost ruins the joy that is a legit sims key. This is what I wrote;

[A bunch of identifying info.
thank you thank you thank you. I spent the last week looking for my Sims Instal disk and it turned out my kids lost the manual with the product key.

Obviously this is something important to me, the three thank yous provide a lot of gratitude right. I mean I am thanking this person before they have even done their job. I am obviously appretiative yes?

This is what I get back;

First off, what part of my kids lost the manual, did this guy not get. Really Adan? Do you think this piece of paper is less likely to be lost or eaten then the WHOLE FREAKING MANUAL. Or do you assume I have a safe to keep my product keys in. Also WHOA BUDDY "If you are able to run your game successfully then I would expect a little appreciation from your side" Do you want a medal? I mean it's not like you broke the rules for me, this is an OPTION on the help desk email, and if it didn't work seriously, it's not like it was going to ruin my day, key gens aren't hard to find dude. Also I prematurely thanked you 3 times. Three. Fuck you I appreciated your help before it was given.

I hate you Adan.
