alright so i get home for the weekend from school last night and my brother is using my moms laptop. he is trying to scan pictures into her computer and then make a power point presentation for his church on mission work. he has no idea how to use power point nor how to scan things in correctly.
he had just spent the last hour scanning pictures (about 30 total) in .pdf ?!??? ....all into one document.
i try and talk him out of spending all this time doing all of this because he has no idea what he is doing and it seems like a total hassle for someone, and i also questioned him on why he agreed to do this whole thing in the first place.
of course because i spend all day on the computer he magically expects me to be able to fix everything and sit there helping him....F that!
so i explain to him that he needs to rescan everything and then crop the photos. he of course makes me do the first five because he keeps on forgetting how to do it all himself.
so then this morning he wakes up and is finished, and he starts asking me about hooking the laptop up to a TV like I have any clue on how to do that or what you need to make that work.
he then spends the next 15 minutes trying to get me to go all the way out to his church to help him, i don't go because 1) he is bugging the crap out of me 2) i really have no idea how to do this
so he leaves....he has been gone for like 6 hours when he calls our house and my mom talks to him for a while, and she comes in and says that he can't do the presentation on power point....
gee john....maybe you should have figured this all out before you spent an insane ammount of time....GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
