Default Oh man, I have problems

So I'm "surfing" the net tonight. I'm watching some dumb video on youtube and instead of hitting the "back" arrow on my browser, I actually move my cursor to the left side of my screen and pause for a second wondering why my menu doesn't pull out.

I think I've been playing a bit too much SH3 lately :rotfl:

Cheers,

J

Uber Dumbness Warning:rotfl:

I have to admit, that I have, in the past, been looking at fullscreen screenshots and wondering why my orders are not being carried out when I click on the right button. I have got to the point where I have thought the game had locked up and tried to tab out of it. I have even walked away from the PC to see if it will clear itself and even hard-reset the PC.

Total numptiness.

Step away from the battery compartment. I think the fumes are getting too you!

At least the chlorine fumes should help clear your nasal passage

I've never had it quite that bad, but I have found myself with an insatiable need to press the time compresson button when viewing videos or even screenshots.

Mabe we should start a support group. Call it ALARM!!!!, for those poeple who's lives have been sucked into SH3 and have a hard time escaping.

It would give you support and ways of dealing with your SH3 addiction, and how use can use your addiction to help others, such as being the one responsible for fire drills in your office, shcool or home.

It will help you give up SH3 and move you on to bigger and better things, like.....



SH4!

I've hit the + wondering why a screen hasn't resumed before.
..
But that's it!
..

Ever wonder what people might think if you desguised your car to look like a u-boat?

:rotfl:

I stood at a busstop yesterday, seeing a large TNT-truck drive by, thinking:

"Ah, let's see, would I hit it in the middle, that would split the carts, under the driver is too hard... maybe the fuel tank... "

"Trucks don't float."

"But think of the tonnage!
"



:rotfl:

The bus wasn't white btw LOL, and nobody tied me up

Off-Topic, but the same theme: I used to drive a van for a living. My car had a manual transmission, the van was an automatic. More than once I tried to put the van into Reverse by reaching down to the floor. Worse was the time I stopped my car and tried to jam it into Park. I nearly broke the turn-signal stalk off the the steering column!
