I use an ibm thinkpad. i just use it like a typewriter, but when i started using it in 1987, i thought i won't be able to write anymore, so i thought i'd go back to the typewriter. but you couldn't go back to the typewriter after using the computer.

White people scare the crap out of me. i have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord, never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and i've never heard a black person say, 'we're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here - have a nice day!'

When forced to leave my house for an extended period of time, i take my typewriter with me, and together we endure the wretchedness of passing through the x-ray scanner. the laptops roll merrily down the belt, while i’m instructed to stand aside and open my bag. to me it seems like a normal enough thing to be carrying, but the typewriter’s declining popularity arouses suspicion and i wind up eliciting the sort of reaction one might expect when traveling with a cannon. it’s a typewriter,’ i say. ‘you use it to write angry letters to airport security.

I buy a tractor two years ago, and four-fifths of the tractor manual is about not tipping over, not raising the bucket high enough to hit high-tension wire... not killing yourself, basically. and in that manual, i found out - and it cost me a thousand dollars - that when the tractor is new, 10 hours into use of the tractor, you have to re-torque the lug nuts. if you don't, you will oval the holes. this is buried between the moron warnings. i never found it. i take the tractor in for its regular servicing, and they say my wheels are gone. how am i supposed to know that? "it's in the manual."
