This and don’t ever tell co-workers your into computers either. They will ask for say, laptop recommdations so because you like them you do a little research and send them some links. 6 months later they’ll come back asking for another recommendation because they didn’t buy anything when they last asked! This has happened to me more times than I care to think about. Totally annoys me.
