So I decided it was a good excuse to start an unusual topic. If you post, you can't use letter. But to keep our discussion from being pointless, I will give it an actual topic, too. Maybe if it's got a purpose, it won't be closed...please? :D

Is your computer (or a different electrical item) currently malfunctioning in any way? Feel free to steer our conversation in any direction you like. I just wanted to give you a starting topic, s'all.

So we can't use |-| correct?

Currently my computer is infected, a browser stealer. I can't even read my own e-mail!

My computer also is slowest on our planet. I can't even play many of todays great games!

You know, it would be more interesting if you couldn't use letter E. :D

Interesting idea; unfortunately, said letter does not occur frequently in conversation. It took little effort to post.

You'll find (if making a sufficiently long contribution) avoiding said letter is far more difficult if trying to stick to a single topic, instead of making general comments. Also, trying not to use our forbidden letter is a pleasant trial. Leaving out 'e' is just plain irritating.

Yup my computer's messed up. I can't access my E-mail's from a certain well known e-mail account provider because I keep getting pop-ups from some stupid crappy internet site locating program. It pop's up and closes down said browser window disallowing me from reading my E-mails. Very irritating.

Also my television doesn't work properly. From it's speakers sound is not correctly emitted. so now I connect it to my alternate sound system meaning sound is of pure quality.

My alternate computer system in my bedroom is runniny very slowly but it's always been like it so I'm used to it.

I fear I also am plauged, Browser stealer no doubt.

I know my grandpappy knows about fixing our problem. Maybe I will consult my reletive after all.

My copy of Final fantasy VII still wasn't delivered. Darned U.P.S. I fear I am going insane.

My computer freezes if I try to open a new window, my speakers kinda blew a fuse(it |-|urt my ears ;_; ), it's ...a slowest thing(:p) on a planet and sometimes it c.anges from 32-bit colors to 256 colors. It's really annoying. >_>

T.at wasn't so |-|ard. :)

O.o....

My computer is a victom of viruse raids,spy ware,and a ton of my stuff scattered about my desktop. so,it runs very slowly. evil monster. but i believe i cleaned most spy stuff away,and because my viruse software is outdated(sort of-it was a trial ) i cannot be sure all little bugs are gone. my gamecube doesnt work at all. my little sister went and destroyed it.-.- die evil spawn of evil.

Hey wait, why are we doing what Czanthor tells us to do anyway? He's obviously some sort of heretical hedgehog from Hondouras. (Who listens to Wave on Vice City. I mean geez, hasn't he heard of VRock?)

My keyboard isn't working at all, so I can't reply to any posts.

Terribly sorry.

removing any specific letter doesn't make anyone's spelling any better, sadly

What would you suggest removing to improve spelling then?

I can think of several things, like toes until they get it right.

That's addition, you add several thousand volts to a person.

I don't see any removal there.

My computer stinks. At first letters would randomly be capitalized and every link I clicked opened in a new window (as if a certain key we cannot name was being pressed down, but it wasn't). Now my screen freezes randomly for a few seconds and goes back to normal as if no freeze occurred.

My computer works just nicely. Sure I can't run any of those fancy games out there, (or even any of the old ones on that note. *-*) but it works fine. It's more or less my buggered keyboard that i've got a problem with. see, I dont look at the keyboard when I type; so, I can type much faster, rather than confusing my eyes trying to type. Problem is, is that I tap on the keys when I type. A lot of times, you can find missing letters here and there, sometimes an extra space, stuff like that.

annoying. =/

My computer is currently locked away in storage, so its functionality is not an issue. Admittedly, once I get it back, I'll be battling its incessant freezing due to Microsoft Internet Exporer's unparalelled crapness.

Voila, a successful example of forbidden letter avoidance.

My computer is currently in the intensive care unit because my boyfriend's younger male sibling "fixed" it for me yesterday evening. My boyfriend is trying to recover my files, and if my boyfriend is unable to, I will cry. ;_;

I don't like my computer not working. It makes me sad. ;_;

When I try to listen to CDs on the computer, it crashes with a blue screen. When I try to use my webcam, OCCASIONALLY it will freeze.

This computer is about 4-5 years old, so I want a new one.
