Random Silly Grins

The whole user manual is a little gem of mistranslation. I really took me back to my days working at a Japanese company.

I’m really having a lovefest with the Asian countries today. How about this little advertising photo for a paper folding stool?

I used to teach this guy. He could make any computer in the lab spontaneously reboot just by sitting down next to it (no hands on the keyboard or near the power buttons, we checked!).

He did have nerve damage, the kind you can sense if you held a hand near his arm. So there was that.

He was very ethical, so I let him bring his own computer in for the final exam. And before somebody snarks, adult learners are the first to complain something is unfair, and everyone was happy with this accommodation. Truth is he was already good at computers, and just needed the instructional hours for his workers comp claim.

We adopted a cat whose foster name was “Titmouse.” Diminutives of that name seemed inappropriate.
