I think I've been spending too much time on the computer
I was reading a Harper's article this morning and glanced down at the bottom right corner of the page to see what time it was. Anyone else ever do that?

8. The first rule of glancing down at the bottom right corner of the page to see what time it was...
Is that we never talk about glancing down at the bottom right corner of the page to see what time it was.

Second and third rule too.

That's wild!
It hasn't happened to me yet, but I am sure it is just a matter of time.

11. I had been working most of the day Sunday till midnight
And I had to get up early so it is partially explained by being tired. It actually freaked me out a little when I did it.

6. I hit CTRL-F (find) in my head all the time when reading a book or a magazine
I hate that.

13. You'll be okay until it actually starts finding stuff
That's when you have to start worrying. :D
