Whenever I watch one of those trivia gameshows on TV and I know the answer to a question, I always have the mindset of “if I know the answer to this question, there’s no way the contestant doesn’t know it,” even if it’s something most people probably don’t know the answer to. Then, when they get it wrong, I feel like I’d be a better contestant on the show, until I realize that I’d probably get all the questions wrong except that one I just happened to know the answer to.
Sometimes I see a small dark spot on a wall and think it’s an insect or something, but when I go up close, I realize it’s just a dark spot. But then at other times, I look away and when I look back, it seems as if the spot moved, leading me to believe it’s actually an insect when it clearly isn’t. Lack of ideas? Yes! Could’ve done another create.swf update but that would’ve taken too long, and there isn’t that much time left until the day’s over. So here is a daily flash that isn’t all that interesting.
Interestingly (well, not really), the swf file itself is named “stealing.swf.” Anyway, it’s not so much of an issue in bigger stores, but in stores with very few people in them, it’s always a weird feeling to walk out without buying anything, because then it might seem like I stole something. It’s even more of an issue if I came in to the store holding something that happens to be sold in the store (usually with beverages or something), because then I feel like I have to make it really clear that I already had it before entering without actually telling them directly. Usually by making it very easy to see, because clearly, if I wanted to steal it, I would have hidden it somewhere. Though I guess doing things like that just makes it look suspicious.
Yeah, I don’t really know where I was going with that ending either. But anyway, actual food rarely looks like it does in menu pictures, in good and bad ways (mostly bad). Most of the time the actual food looks worse, but there are occasions when I’ve seen pictures of food that doesn’t make it look that great, but the actual thing is much better. This seems to apply mainly to burgers though (however, “the actual food looks better than the one in the picture” one doesn’t seem to ever apply to fast food restaurants). So basically, uhh… don’t judge a burger by its picture? If it looks really good in the picture, it’s probably not what you’d expect.
I always use the ‘safely remove hardware’ thing when removing USB devices, even though I’m sure that I’ve closed all programs that are attempting to access the USB device. Though sometimes it’ll keep saying that a file is open in a program and I need to close the program before I can remove it, even though I’m sure it’s not. Sometimes I just leave it there until I have to shut down the computer anyway, then take it out after the computer’s off. Or I just remove the device anyway (after trying the ‘safely remove hardware’ again a bunch of times). Nothing bad ever happens to the files though. In other news, I like how neat the handwriting in the title frame is.
