Obsession Is Just Love Gone too Far

At a glance, the above post makes me sad – sounds like the love they have has finally come down from the “above highest mountain” or “circling multiple earths” level. Why is that a good thing? Well as you can see from my dictionary post, I really don’t think love bordering on Obsession is a good thing. But heck, for all I know they obsessed over each other night and day and both loved the attention.

I realize this isn’t as funny as usual, however perhaps this is one of those informative posts. Ones where I take a moment to tell you something factual, such as the fact that obsessions can lead to such uncomfortable feelings that people develop behaviors just to get rid of the nagging obsession. So perhaps your obsession is the safety of your family – that’s not a bad thing right? You think about Ninjas attack them at night while you sleep, and you’re determined to stop that.

Yea, stop this guy!

so you decide that the only sane thing to do is lock your door, and make damn sure it’s locked, by say unsetting and setting the deadbolt a few times to make sure it’s really locked. I’d say 100 times ought to do it. If you agree, congratulations, you’ve just created a compulsion!

He’s obsessed with mountains & dorkiness 

Now that you’ve got an obsession & a compulsion, you may qualify for a disorder. How Fun… OK, not really.

So if you’re love is above Tallest building and Roundest Earth levels, just be careful – don’t want it going too far!

Oh, and remember how I said this wasn’t a funny post, after looking at that last picture, perhaps I was wrong.

USB Ports!

Couple of different reasons USB ports can go bad Stag01. It’s possible that the drivers for the ports aren’t installed correctly – open Device Manager on a Windows PC and see if any of the devices have a ! next to them. If they do and they are something like a “USB Controller” then that may be your issue.

It’s also possible that the USB ports somehow became shorted out (My mother did this to her laptop a few years ago). A quick solution is to buy a PCMCIA Card (Or simply PC-Card) with USB Ports on it. This works well on laptops, however for a desktop you may need to buy a PCI Card / USB controller.

Lastly, it could simply be that the USB ports are disabled in Windows or BIOS, in which case you’d need to check those settings.

And since most of my replies are humorous, I’ll add that USB ports not working certainly isn’t funny. But imagining a grizzly bear driving recklessly down a highway is. It’s a fact!

Doctor Jon,
What’s the difference between a unicyclist and a pancake?

Seymore, Atlas Park

Nothing, if your driving a steamroller.

Methinks Seymore just started college and thus decided to see if I knew of College Humor. Stay original Seymore.
