Rules:

*The setup must be YOURS and ONLY YOURS
*The setup may NOT in ANY way include a PC
*It can be clean or messy
*Any setup that doesn't have a PC in it (and is yours) can be posted.

Most of all, have fun

I'll be posting mine near the end if/when I get a better cam to prevent people from throwing tomatoes at me.

Apparently nobody understood the rules so I will be reposting in hopes that people will take it seriously this time.

whoa, this should be exciting.

Might see a scroll mouse or something if we're lucky.

Yeah, I just wondered what the response here would be.

Not good

Look, I made the rules CLEAR Either post a picture of YOUR setup that follows the rules or don't post anything.

Comments on the setups are welcome, when we ACTUALLY HAVE SETUPS TO COMMENT ON!

If you question my topic, or do not like it, you can private message me where it will be dealt with.

Now, please, let us get this topic going!

if you're going to start (yet another) setup thread, then surely you should start by posting... your setup pic? by not doing so, you just left it wide open for ridicule.

go and play with TN and his inbred hick family, over at OCN.

It is because he's a no-good-reason PC hater.

#1: I believe you're both right
#2: does it matter?
#3: MZ, what constitutes outrageous? I'm workin' on a messy desk award here, but I dunno if that constitutes outrageous... I'm a real rebel, too... put a postit note on my iMac's LCD!
#4: some visual examples, aka your setup?
#5: do Juan and I count as one? our computers could probably kiss if they wanted...
#6: there IS no #6!

#1: huh?
#2: ....
#3: Something you wouldn't expect in a typical setup: either too clean, really messy, maybe an upside down monitor or tower being used as desktop or something else rather rediculous. *shrug* It can truly be a 'normal' setup that someone else might find outrageously funny.
#4: Oh I wish I could make my setup outrageous enough to be funny, right now it's too usual
#5: Doesn't matter, however you want it.
#6: pizza!!!!!!!

First post, and already with the excessive overusage of the infamous "rolleyes" -- that'll be twelve lashings, mister. Now bend over. That's it. Everyone else can move along -- nothing to see here.

justingo1, i have a stupid question. If you come somewhere, say they're dumb and argumentative, why WOULDN'T you expect an insult? Also, if we suck so much, why did you join the conversation?

I didn't flame you, goof. It was a joke. The Internet sarcasm does not come through well. Here's a band-aid and five bucks -- go buy yourself a pretty. [/sarcasm]
