My Friend Played Me

[Shengeta 0]

friends (wont give last name) = Dan and ClarenceThis is about a verbal fight me and Dan got into last year. He wanted a Microsoft Office cd to get Word or whatever and I gave it to him not knowing the Microsoft Windows 98 operating system cd was in it instead. Instead of him getting Word, somehow he thinks it messed up his computer and he couldn't start it in any someway somehow. Clarence went to try to fix it and he couldn't then when I offered to fix it, at the last second he gave it to someone else to fix it instead. That person got mad at Dan's family or whatever, didnt help, and ended up stealing my windows XP operating system cd that Dan gave to him to help fix his pc that Clarence used to try to fix it along with other cds. We got in a big argument and Dan blamed us and got his mother to hate me and Clarence for no reason. I kinda took some of the blame though.I just realized, one year later, Dan played me back then. To install an operating system you need to reboot your computer then run it. For Microsoft Office obviously you cant and dont, everyone knows that. Well you have to know it was an operating system cd to use it, so obviously he lied and knew what it was. Besides the cd says they are going to erase everything, they give a warning and everything, duh he cant see that? he had to bring it through all the operations and had to know that to go on.Now, how would an operating system cd make your pc not be able to start up or boot from a cd never again anyways? So he definitly lied, he had to of gotten a virus from the pc to had that happen, then he blamed it on me and Clarence (even though Clarence has nothing to do with this matter in the first place), so he didnt want to get himself into big trouble from his mom and she might think he went on porn sites to get a virus, so he blamed us. Was that a little confusing? I'm mad so I can't talk right lol.

Yeah, that sucks man, those cd's are expensive. But there are some parts that are kind of unclear. For example:

 

Clarence went to try to fix it and he couldn't then when I offered to fix it, at the last second he gave it to someone else to fix it instead. That person got mad at Dan's family or whatever, didnt help, and ended up stealing my windows XP operating system cd that Dan gave to him to help fix his pc that Clarence used to try to fix it along with other cds.

What is going on here? There's got to be some explanation for this, right? Why did that person get mad, and take the CD?

 

And how on earth can Dan blame you for HIM giving the computer to someone else, who then takes your cd and gets mad?

 

An interesting story, and I'm sorry this hapened to you, but maybe you can enlighten us a bit on the details?

I just can not understand why friends betray each other like that. I can not tell you how many times people have taken advantage of me by not returning something that they borrowed, stealing something from me, blaming me for really bad things they have done, and just being plain mean. Some people are just like that but after a performance like that you should not be that kid's friend. Staying away from him might be the best thing to do.

Well obviously they weren't really good friends, probably not really friends at all. People are pretty sad these days. I bet he sold the cd instead. You can't really trust anyone anymore. You just have to hope for the best but expect the worst from some people. There are good people out there it is just that people are pretty good at bluffing I guess you could say.

If he didn't notice it was the wrong CD when the install screen came up with a giant WINDOWS XP logo on it, then it's his own damn fault. If anything about people stealing the CD or getting pissed and whoever is true, and he still blames you and the other guy, then stop being his friend. He's an @sshat. Tell him so. And make him pay for your XP cd. It's a legal obligation that when you lend somethign out, and they lose it, they have to get you a new one or get it back. So that or threaten to take him to small claims court. Show the @sshat that you can fight back dirty too.
