- You expect the spelling on your hand-written shopping list to be corrected automatically.
- When someone takes the rubbish out at then of the day, you jump in front of them, waving your arms, and ask “Are you sure?”
- You look for an F1 key on the washing machine when you cant work out what program you need for woolens.
- You wonder why your paperclips are inanimate.
- The speed at which your pocket calculator “boots up” amazes you, but you are then confused by the lack of a drop-down menu.
- Your work colleagues are baffled by your filing system with each folder labelled “New Folder”, “New Folder (2)”, “New Folder (3)”, etc. Each are crammed with yet more identically names folders.
- Your car starts going slower so you shut all open windows, turn off the stereo and throw away anything that makes your car look nicer.
- Your alarm clock plays a tune by Brian Eno (click here for an explanation in case you dont get it!)
- You burn your toast and blame it on conflicting patches on the toaster from the last Service Pack.
- You promise to cook for your other half. Ten minutes before its due to be served you say there has been a delay and that it wont actually be ready for another thirty minutes. Repeat four or five times.
Feel free to add your own!
