Laptops are always so much more Fucked than phones in my experience. A laptop is like a beautiful horse that wants nothing more than to break all of its legs. A decently solid android phone will act normal.
A laptop is a living creature. It has weight to it. A laptop breathes and produces body heat. And it wants to die badly. Mobile phones are not sentient like that & that’s why they don’t experience mental illness. A phone problem is like “out of storage :(” or “charging port broke”. Laptops will cough weakly as they fade in and out of consciousness.
You will hold a laptop in your arms and it’s like “I can’t feel my legs”. And you tell it girl you never had any.
This person and I have had wildly different laptop experiences.
Yours actually have legs?
In french the word “marcher” can be used either for “walking” or for “functioning/working”.
The classic prank was to call random numbers in the phonebooth and ask “does your fridge work/walk?” Pretending you’re trying to sell them a new one and when they’d say yes to get rid of you, you’d suggest them to buy it some shoes (damn weren’t we smart in the 90s).
All that to say, there’s a joke around that concept somewhere in there.
In English the joke is “is your fridge running?” followed by “well you better run after it!”
Haha! I laughed. (My language is French)
We have the same joke in English: ‘Is your fridge running?’
Well duh. How else do you expect it to use chopsticks? Like cmon now.
And an intense will to live
