I was seated in my computer chair. I reached out my hand and pressed the ‘on’ button. After a moment the computer turned itself on.

This reads a lot like the comments on my Twitter homepage.
WOAH…. welcome back Dull!
So, how did you turn it off?
Did you use your left or right hand?
It’s back! Not that I’ve been waiting for its return, or anything interesting like that 😉
Is that it? Did you at least click on an icon?
Well,I pressed the ‘on’ button,however it turned itself off~
Well thank goodness that’s all that happened. I don’t know if I could handle any more excitement than that.
Time to sleep now – I’m exhausted even thinking about it.
faithfully I check this blog everyday to add some excitement to my dull life. finally a new post. my pulse quickens possibly topping 62 beats per minute. I must rest.
OMG.
AWSOME
I BARLEY DO THAT
Huh!! Anyways after switching it on did you use it ? 😉

pc or mac?
I typed this sentence into this blog.
I am a penguin.
You are lucky, the on switch on my computer is very temperamental and doesn’t usually work, very annoying!
I am the Joker.

It has to be a mac. A PC would take far longer than a moment! 😉
This entry is even more exciting than the one five years ago where you turned on the light in your room. Keep the rest of the world informed of your fascinating life! I wish I could have been there to watch.
man! you turned that thing on! you did it! major success
Hmm… I guess nothing interesting happened in the past few years… Glad to see things are picking up for you 🙂

— good job starting a flame war in the next couple of posts.
besides, macs start up faster than pcs, but only because you cannot safely customize the internal hardware. it is made only for macs, and the software is made only for that hardware. in windows, you can mod to your hearts content making a new computer, and it will support anything. why? because they left a llot of time for configurations in the boot screen 🙂
You are truly an inspiration to us all, Dave. How you could manage to do such complex things, boggles my mind.
amazing… simply amazing….
I’ve added your blog to my Reading List of Berkshire sites I monitor – it certainly adds some balance to the hectic crowd of excitable commentators! Keep it up!
Do we still need this blog, now that we have Twitter?
Your return exhausts me. I am happy, but I must now nap.
It took just a moment? wow. May I have your computer? Mine takes at least two minutes!
thats what she said
Well, what can I say?
i did that then my computer caught fire it was warm
what is funny is that i also have a computer chair.
How much time did you need to press the button? 3 years ….
Wow and I who writes interesting things never get this attention.
wow i have a computer and a computer chair thats weird
small world huh
genius, just genius!
it is also a coiencidence that i have an on button but have never learned to use it rite
well it didnt turn itself on then did it :p you manually turned it on in a dull fasion
In the past years i have blown up spaceships, halo rings, forerunner bases, practicaly all thats blowable. shot thousands of aliens,stepped over a few billions of flood spores, jumped around in a warthog in space, flewn cruisers, dropships,destroyers. drow a dozen of alien vehicles. shoot with lots of weapons, alien ones too. and right now. im KICKING BUTTS IN SPACE… Regards Spartan117j John (Master Chief)
In the above comment i typed my name wrong by accident. by unnotedly skipping the “T” button and therebyseeing my name as sparan and not sparTan and also, saving wear and tear on the button. and possibly also saving the life of potential innoccent microscopical creatures that might have settled down, or is living on, or is just randomly passing by on the “T” button from being squashed! 🙂
this is odd … because when i push the button on my computer it turns ME on.
what?? sorry i cant read this i have no ears
haha story of my life 😀
You remind me a lot of my friend Jack Marriage. He is dull also.
I have never knew this story about computer~
If, after pressing the on button, the computer turned itself on, you are obviously not using a Microsoft operating system
without abracadabra, gosh.. u r wizardish
There’re 6 buttons on my lappy. None named ‘ON’. What should I do?
you pressed the on button and the computer turned on….. big whoop!! I wrestled 4 aligators, jumped across 5 skyscrapers, ate 2000 cockroaches, traveled 10000 miles using a simple bmx bike, swam in leech and snake infested amazon swamp, and all that just using the power of imagination while my 96 mb ram, 2gb hdd, vga graphics enabled, windows 95 desktop turned on at the carefully caliberated push of the on button.
Hang on! This is not dull at all. This guy has a computer that turns itself on. Note, when he pushed the button, nothing happened. Later, it turned itself on – spooky.
Oh, I promise that I will not post here again.
My colleague was sitting at her computer the other day. After a while she started tapping on the keyboard with her fingertips. When she had finished she stopped tapping on the keyboard.
