    Shit man. I used to work at a Circuit City at the height of bloated shitty Celeron PCs.

    We would be forced to sell a “system optimization” on each PC we sold. It was just a script that uninstalled a few of the bloatware items and tweaked the animation speed to make the customer think we did something incredible.

    I fucking hated that job!

      Reads like a scam. Maybe our time is not as full of scams as compared to the past.

      After all, memories get distorted. As kids and teens we’d have parents look out for us and give good advice, helping us avoid some of the worse parts.
