Warflying: San Diego

  1. You sound like my wife. ;-) by flogger · · Score: 5, Funny

    I was reading /.'s article about warchalking the other day and my wife asked what I was reading! This is rare as she is familiar with the slashdot masthead and has always stayed away whilst I read. Anyway, I tell her. Our resulting conversation was like this:
    Wife: God, some people have way too much time.
    Me: yea pretty wild huh.
    Wife: Why are you grinning like that.
    Me: huh? I'm not grinning.
    Wife: You aren't thinking of going out to do this are you?
    Me: Can't. I don't have wireless connectivity.
    Wife: You've got DSL.
    Me: --Edited speech about differences between dialup, dsl, wireless, 801b.11 blah blah blah.--
    Wife: So you're telling me that you want to buy a laptop and walk around town with it?
    Me: I didn't say that. We don't have the money anyway.
    Wife: You'd do it though, wouldn't you?
    Me: I dunno.
    Wife: You would do it! Why the hell would you want to walk around and pry into other people computer networks.
    Me: Dunno. Curiosity?
    Wife: What? Curiosity. I might be curious to know why the neighbors are moaning so loud every night after letterman, but you don't see me over there with my x-10 camera laptop!

    From there the discussion went downhill....
