sappa matters -#5

SM1: If you wear prescription glasses, how does it affect your vision when you dream? Has anyone (in the dream) ever said "Nice frames"?

--..--..--

SM2:

Ambiguity - I found this written on a white board near the office break area:

"Please don't steal my fruit cake. Thank you"

below which was added:

"It has been in my family for a long time"

What is "It" here?

--..--..--

SM3: Popeye is very angry.

--..--..--

SM4: If somebody is leaning over your computer and typing his/her password in to a program (for whatever reason), how many keystrokes must you wait before turning to face the screen?

--..--..--

SM5: On a related note - I am getting annoyed when people say "I am not a computer person". Seriously, what does that mean?

  • sreekrishnav: ;) indeed ENTER key has a special sound. But I am trying to get a trade-off between etiquette and possession of the PC!

    Cogito: Also,

    c) could easily blame the computer for several things
    d) download un-necessary 3D screen savers (and a host of spyware)

  • LOL.. very good SMs.. rommmmmba yosikkireenga pola.. Problem is, I dont have any answer to ur SM2 and SM5

    SM4: I would wait for the 'Bang' sound when the 'Enter' key is hit.. ;) or a period of apparent inactivity.. BTW, do you turn 180 degree or what, if someone types the p/w? just thalaiyai mattum thiruppina pochu.. illenna vittathai parkkalam.. watch-a pakkalam... sombal murikkalam..
