Don’t tell me to fuck off...
Not even as a joke.
I will rip your shit up.
I’m not going to waste my time typing out all my troubles and uploading screenshots of what’s fucking up until I know someone can help out.

Okay, good luck with this one though... I was told by /g/ that I was totally fucked.
Do you just want a link to the thread on /g/? If not, it’s no problem to explain it.

I was under the impression Macs didn’t break. What could have possibly went wrong with it?

Fuck it, I’ll expalin here.
Okay, this is pretty much copy and paste from /g/:
Anybody wanna help out a brotha?
My dock won’t show up, my menu bar forgot what it’s meant to show, iTunes won’t open, but if I find a song on the HD and double click it, it plays - but doesn’t show iTunes.
Spaces don’t work, even after trying to enable them. Exposé doesn’t work. And when I open terminal it comes up with a message talking about Carbon Core (which I have no idea what is).
I’m typing this from my computer that’s fucked up.
For some reason, FireFox, Opera, and Safari work fine.
aMSN only works when I switch onto a different account though...
My computer was fine last night, and the only thing of significance I did since then and now, was install an update for something - I can’t remember what it was, maybe Microsoft office, but it was an update. I restarted my computer this morning to complete the update (which only took a couple seconds anyway, but I wanted to listen to music while sreeping so I left my computer on all night) and then I left my computer at the login screen until I got back from school. I logged in, realized how fucked up my shit was, talked to Shploits
He told me to restart my Pram and NVram by turning off computer, turning back on while holding command, control, p and r.
This did nothing. So now I’m stuck in the same position.
I’ll upload the picture in a second.

This is the first time anything’s gone drastically wrong in 10 years of mac use.

Does Mac have a rollback feature like "system restore"? If so, try using it. Or maybe there’s a program in Macland that could be downloaded to a disk and run to troubleshoot it?

This is what the terminal came up with...
And this is what there was on the Guest account desktop. The file at bottom looks a little fishy...
I’ll have a look around on System Preferences for a system restore.

It shat out it’s harddrive from fear when he accidentally set his Windows based (obviously superior) computer next to it. Joking of course, I might be able to help. And if I can’t, my friend is really good with Mac’s so I could ask him.
