The Fictitious Chronicles: Introduction

The narrations that will be published soon are excerpts from a top secret file in my closet that doesn't exist. The file contains highly sensitive information that cries whenever you look at it. It was recovered from a archeological digg that was never published.

So, Brace yourselves.
PS: Don't go to the dentist. Please.
PS2: It'll Hurt If you do!
PS3: There will be no humor except Dark humor. The narrations itself will also be dark. Don't blame me, blame Wapda!

A little talk about a big problem

Welcome my friends!
Yes, i'm free from exams.
Yes, i know it's been a long time.
Yes, i know i've been really bad to you all.
Yes, i know you've waited a long time for this post.
Yes, i know haroon hasn't been keeping you busy all this time.
Yes, i know haroon did not treat you well and he has a perfectly good reason for that.
Yes, i know that reason and the reason {IS YOU!!![scooba-tank (hoobastank?) anyone?]} is exams
Yes, i know!
Hmm.. if i ever run for president remind me to keep that as my slogan

Vote for Salman because.. he knows... (YES, I KNOW)

Oh well enough of the political bull. I mean, give the cows a chance too! I mean what about the pigs on a wing and the sheep and the dogs... (THANK YOU PINK FLOYD)

Oh well enough of the political "number 2"

Well, today i want to talk about a serious issue!

Note: Before you scroll down i want to tell you that the issue is rated R..[joke(scroll down and find out)]

The topic for today is:
(hold this for a second darling i gotta open the envelope)
*drum roll please*
PIRACY!
*arr* (Oh thats why it's rated R)
*Cue the Wilhelm scream*

I don't believe in piracy!
It sucks!

:O

BUT I LIVE IN PAKISTAN!!! HOW CAN I HATE IT WHEN I LIVE IN PAKISTAN?!

Well, that's a good question (or was that a statement?!)

It's pretty simple really. I'll PAY for a good product! If it's great. I'll pay the developers cause i want more!

Unfortunately, things aren't that simple. You can't go to a store and buy an original dvd of ANYTHING!

Movies, Music, Games, Software, everything! HECK SOMETIMES YOU CAN'T EVEN BUY AN ORIGINAL PAKISTANI THING!!

So, i resort to open source.


Oh what, no genuine windows? Screw you Microsoft genuine advantage! Hello Linux!


But, unfortunately, sometimes, open-source, isn't, good, enough.

Now. most of you read that as:
But unfortunately sometimes open-source isn't good enough

Some of you read it as:
But sometimes isn't enough
OR
Unfortunately open-source good

But what i meant was:
Sometimes open-source isn't good enough

So the most of you were right.

Congratulations.

Want a cookie?

He he.
Ok back to piracy!
I meant the piracy issue!
Ok back to the piracy issue!

Some softwares you have a substitute for. No office? get open office!
No norton, get avg.
You know, stuff like that. Sometimes you get AWESOME stuff, sometimes you get equal stuff, and sometimes you just get Carp (no offense to the fish)

Like there are no photoshop alternatives that rock.
so, you just have to do it.
No matter how much it kills you inside.

Now off to another topic. What to do when there is no alternative.
Living in Pakistan, where there is nothing original. Even the people are wanna-be's
WHAT DO YOU DO?!
You could go to the store next door and get a cd. Paying a person and encouraging him to make more fake dvds.

OR

you could go online and download the foo'


So, it's your choice
I mean, it is cleaner in principle. But dirty in action.
Boy would i love to have genuine stuff...

Guys. I am sorry that this post came late. But i started writing this post the day i got free from my exams. Life has been busy since then. First i had to pack and go to dubai. Which was excellent. Then i had to have fun in dubai which was also excellent. But then my hard drive screwed up and showed me the BSOD everytime i started windows up. BUMMER! I tried alot to fix it but i couldn't access the hard drive. BUMMER! I lost 12 Gb of music. DOUBLE BUMMER! Worst of all. I lost all my Pink Floyd. BUMMER RAISED TO THE POWER OF INFINITY! But not to worry. I will get it back. Oh yes i will... I mean i do have 5 backups of floyd!

1)USB's
2)CD's
3)Desktop
4)Friend 1
5)Online Server

But one does his floyd. Right one?
1: Right you are Salman! Right you are..

So long folks. I leave with a heavy heart.
Mind taking some load off?
