Hi folks. Hope everyone is having an amazing holiday season. I was until this happened.

So as many of you know, I love my iMac. It's not just some base iMac either. It's nearly fully-loaded with a 10-Core CPU, 10-Core GPU, 32 GBs of RAM, and a blazing fast 512 GB Solid State Drive. It's also the gorgeous yellow color. It fits perfectly into our interior.

But picture this. It's Christmas morning and her and I were exchanging gifts under the Christmas tree. Mind you, it was incredibly romantic. The room was lit by nothing but candles and christmas lights, we both got each other heartfelt presents, and the vibes were immaculate. We ended the morning hugging each other and we were about to prepare to head off to a family party. My wife said it was going to be a fantastic Christmas.

But that's when I made the mistake. I stupidly said, in the words of Steve Jobs,"There's one more thing."

My wife got super excited. I gave her the last box I hid in our pantry. She opened it and it revealed paper documents. I, at the time, lied to myself and thought I was doing our relationship a solid. We last signed a prenup five years ago when we first got married. I wanted to believe we should relook at our assets and relook at things now that our circumstances have changed.

She was in absolute shock. But then she went into full-on panic mode when it crossed her mind my real motive behind doing so. It wasn't obvious to me at the time, I swear. She looked at the asset list and saw that I put the iMac under my name. She started screaming, ripped up the document right in front of me that I paid a lawyer $1,500.00 to write out, stormed off, and didn't respond to any calls or texts. I haven't seen her until she came knocking on my door this morning to grab her stuff. She says we are over, and she's staying at a coworker's place, but she won't tell me who and where.

So here I am, right before New Year's Eve, typing this out to all you iMac fans... my last family I have... how do I remedy this? I really messed up big time. The lure of the iMac's amazing minimalist design, sleek color pallet, and white bezels hypnotized me to the point where I have put everything I ever held dear in my life in jeopardy. And now I here I am. What do I do next?
 
Is this post serious or AI?

I cannot believe that anyone would 'hand out' a pre-nuptial as a 'gift', especially at Christmas. What the heck did you think would happen? Crazy.

I hope you and your iMAC are happy together.

I wish I could say it was ai. Unfortunately I wrote it myself. It was a grave mistake.

Then - 2 posts later:
"Unfortunately I wrote it myself."

You really need to settle on what you have actually done here
 
another lazy unspecified iMac thread we need to guess upon....

what operating system does the iMac have?
and the year, if you have  care and any matching colors if the heralded iMac is/was a M series.
was there an  sticker on the pantry door?
details please!

we cannot help you without such important details you simply omitted!

as far as "I really messed up big time" you know you can use Time machine,
but that is a another topic, another time.

I hoped this helped!
