We, being I.T. students, quickly figured out that they worked on ALL MacBooks...

While I now feel like a complete and utter prat for even thinking it, at the time it was rather hilarious to watch people pull out their new shiny and suddenly erupt into a rage mid-lecture as these MacBooks shut down for no apparent reason, or the volume skyrocketed as they were watching something unrelated to the lecture... yeah... we were 'those kids'... *sigh*

@AK99,

I get the same thing, except mine decides just as I start to take a shower is THE BEST POSSIBLE TIME to engage me in our financial planning for the fortnight coming, then gets annoyed when I don't know which bills are coming out on what date at what time and why the train drivers cap is BLUE not RED traveling in a north/north-easterly direction at precisely 82km/h on the Cleveland line...

Also, cleaning MY car is me being obsessive... cleaner HER car is a necessity...

A bloke at work has a saying which I've now stolen: "I don't try to understand women... women understand women ...... and they all hate each other"
