<< 16. u visit website that said " you do not belong here." >>



Bonus points if you felt personally offended by the message on said website, complained about it in ATOT, and had your thread locked by the mods :)

40. You can lower the refresh rate in Win95 after someone set it so high the monitor went out of sync and they got back to the desktop. (It surprised even me when I did it)

41. Your Favorites take up more than 10MB of HD space. (Mine take up 16MB. :p )

42. You can check your Email from your watch. (I'll be able to do that in a week or so)

43. Your pile o computer stuff has grown so large it hit the ceiling.
