At least you didn't drive your car home with steam pouring out of the hood because VW hires incompetent Nazi engineers.

HAHAHAH

I do that all the time... Then I freak out and can't remember if the list was defaulted to restart or shut down..

But in my case I get to call the data center (in another state) and have the tech (lackey) go hit the power button.

I have to wait until tomorrow morning and call the location this server happens to be at. I'm praying I just accidently shut it down instead of rebooting. :(
