For once, I'd like to print something that's tabloid paper sized, in color, at KINKOs without having to go to TWO KINKOS TO DO IT. Oh, and not get hit on. I don't know why I get hit on at Kinkos... BUT I DO. But this time, the guy was trying to be MAC KNOWLEDABLE and tried to fix my problem with my mac and the fricken printer but when he came over to help me, he was all "You have a nice computer, I have never seen this kind of computer before!!" *FACEPALM* He was just clicking around, doing random things and trying to play cool... AND IT WENT ON FOR WAY TOO LONG.

This is bloody ridiculous. When Christmas comes, I'm going to write to Santa and ask for a color inkjet printer that can print in ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT SIZES AND SHAPES. And I'm going to ask for a gigantuous scanner as well!!! And an entourage of hot british men to serve meeeee, mwa ha ha aha aha haahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaa~~~!!! *ebil laughter*

*notices everyone in Kinkos is staring at her*

MWA HAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~!!! I EAT BABIES!!

KINKOS sucks big weinie. My very favorite personal story was when I lived in Santa Cruz and was going through the Science Illustration program, I had a bunch of mailing portfolio stuff to get done at a KINKOS for mailing the next day. I was supposed to be able to pick everything up at about 11 that night. When the time came, nothing had been done. Rescheduled to pick everything up at 1 AM. When I arrived, only 1/3rd of the color copies had been done, and those had been done OFF-CENTER on the page. The other 2/3rds hadn't even been started.

I asked the slack-jawed, ski-cap wearing, ear-piercing the size of bottlecaps dork who was responsible for the photocopies why they weren't done, and he gave me that 1,000 yard stare of stoners everywhere and said, "Dude, I'm just not in a space right now to do your copies."

At which point I hit the ceiling. I wish I'd had the wherewithal to have said, "That's funny. Because you SEEM to be standing behind the counter of a KINKOS store, holding my work order in your hand. So it would SEEM to me that you're in EXACTLY the space to be doing my GODDAMN ORDER, you mouth-breathing dorkwad!"

Instead, I think I just sputtered a moment and then demanded to talk to his manager. The situation got resolved...by about 2 AM, but I have never had a high opinion of KINKOS after that.

BTW...you don't REALLY eat babies...do you?

Oh my gawd O_O *pat pat*

I ended up going a bit snarky on the guy fiddling with my poor laptop, "You know what, don't worry about it. I'll just go somewhere else."

And then he turns indignantly to me and goes, "THAT'S NOT VERY NICE."

So I reply, "Well, it's not working is it? And I need to get this done since it's due tomorrow! What ELSE am I supposed to do?!"

I still don't understand why I get hit on at Kinkos, I mean, I only go there towards the last leg of my finals to get stuff printed! I'm going on about 3-4 hours of sleep, bleary-eyed, cranky, haven't showered, haven't eaten, and wearing all sorts of oddly comfy clothing!! How can THAT possibly be attractive???
