So I started going to University recently, and the amount of people I've had actively chastise me for how I treat my laptop has been shocking.
This is a tool to get things done, it's not some precious gem, I bought a cheap laptop with the expectation that it's going to get gross and crusty and I'll have to hose it down once a year, I'm going to wing it around and drop it and clean the screen with my sleeve.
