Misc. Sunday

 So, on this glorious night, I'm going to talk about.... Why I hate printers.
 Today, I kinda had important things to print of. You know... extremely urgent stuff like... guitar tabs from ultimate-guitar.com. You know, life and death stuff right there. So I click print and all, but then I look in the actual printer after it started printing, and there isn't enough paper. So, I get a stack of paper and put it in there.
Now, I would understand if the printer got confused and took another piece of paper with the one it already took. But no. I put the stack of paper in there and... nothing happens. But a few seconds later, the printer decides it needs more paper, (the first page isn't even done printing yet) and goes for another piece of paper, and grabs the entire stack. I didn't even know it could fit three pieces of paper let alone the thirty that were in there.
So of coarse it gets jammed, so I reach in there and take about ten minutes getting two pieces of paper out, and think "oh great, how long is this going to take?" and then I sort of tug on the rest of the stack that is half way through by now, and it comes out like nothing's wrong. I was so confused. Anyway, so after that, it was all fine and dandy.
Now, I understand my printer is a piece of junk. It takes about a life time to start printing. But honestly. You'd think it would be smarter than that. I don't know. I'll probably wake up tomorrow and find that my printer has grown horns, has fashioned itself a spear out of paper, and is spitting ink flavored fire at my face. who knows; anything is possible I guess if you just believe.
