I was behind him with my wireless mouse and started making random movements on the screen. He isn't familiar with my netbook and he just seemed perplexed, but kept trying to do the work. I couldn't keep from laughing and because he seemed genuinely perplexed but not frustrated, I felt compassion for him and fessed up. He just seemed relieved and went on to finish the job. I wouldn't do it again to someone, it really wasn't funny. I felt like a jerk.

I seriously thought it was funny when I did it, but my husband's response made me rethink that. Plus, he was doing me a favor, so that was even more insensitive of me.

I wish I was more like you; I tend to have a short fuse, but I'm working on it!

Anyway, I haven't looked in a few days but checked this morning and my ignore list increased by 1---what the hell did I post yesterday that was offensive?

A Blondie video?

Asking what people were having for dinner?

I think it must have been the post that cats are like potato chips---yeah, that's got to be it!

One guy spent 6 hours inspecting his cube. When my husband finally came clean, the guy borrowed it to mess with other people--after he got over being pissed off.

And they're cheap, too!
