    I've had that problem with my Swap Magic a few times. I'd boot the Swap magic, leave the room for a minute, come back and keep trying to boot a game I hadn't yet put in. ><

    Funny I have a few problems. One I beat Legend of Zelda OoT for the first time a month ago. I bought the game when I was 10. Im 17 now. I have many others but either are too embarrassing or too weird

    Stupidest: trying to get my computer to work for a while, but it wasn't plugged in (about a year ago)

    Dumbest: having a power outage, shutting down my computer (has a power backup) then walking over to my TV, trying to turn it and my PS2 on without realizing there was no power (about 2 years ago)

    Embarassing: looking like an idiot when trying to turn on a TV in a classroom full of people (one of those cart ones that wasn't plugged in back in GR7. I was asked by the teacher to turn it on after he wheeled it into the room)

    As you can tell I don't check power when starting things and it makes me look like a complete idiot

    I've once tried to hit a ball, but I smashed into a friends face!

    Nearly the same thing happened to me, We went on an excursion for school, and there was this pond thing, and rocls were sticking out of it, so i thought i would be cool and jump from rock to rock, and on the 3rd rock i slipped and fell into the water.

    Also, i was fixing this cd player and amp with my workmate, and we went to test it, stuck in a cd, turned it on, pressed play, no sound, we were like, wtf? so we had another look at it, then asfter a while, we saw that no speakers were plugged in XD

    Unhappy

    I've been trying to download psx isos since i joined this site.

    I never got past the vote page, because the damn frame wouldn't load! So I tried a different browser (maxthon) because firefox doesn't work with everything...no dice. So i gave up on it. Went to the irc groups, and i was fine.

    20 minutes ago, I finally read all the instructions for the vote page:


    1. Click on the Link above to see the sponsor below...
    2. You must Wait for the page to load in the box below.
    3. Wait till the page loads, then the -[ Enter ]- button below will Enable.
    4. Now, go ahead and download the the ISO, thank you for supporting us!

    In the past, for some reason, I always started at step two...I would leave for class, and returned hoping the frame loaded...but I never clicked the link...I'm a 'tard.

    Unplugged my speakers via the AC plug part that goes in the back of the actual speaker. I was talking to someone, and I put the adaptor in my mouth (a habit I developed from putting my guitar pick in my mouth when I do the same), then felt heat for about 2 seconds, and WHAM, shocked the hell out of me. There was a red blister on my tongue for a day

    Are there only geek problems/mistake/embarassing things here?
    What about trying to get into some girl pants and finding that she was a "he"? No that didn't happen to me, but that would sure be embarassing.

    I once was almost caught pants down, *almost*
    Anyway I think i've never dressed so fast. Trust me that was embarassing, given the fact I had to go to my house after with that "LOL, my shirt isn't buttoned properly because I had to run away" look. :\

    I made tons of errors in my life, just can't remember them. Sorry.

    The most embarassing thing happend to me in Freshman year. I was a fishy, no wonder. Anyway, I need to use the restroom, so I... went into the girls restroom. I went as far as to (I'm saying this over the internet, but I never let something out like this in person) using the toilet, when I noticed that a couple of voices, which sounded like a couple of fine gir... I mean, just a couple of girls walking in. I was right! They were fin... I mean, yeah, they were girls. I seriously freaked out. I somehow manage to wait until the bell, then ran out without looking back . That was the noobiest thing ever. Well, now that I got that out of my way.

    OK looks like its not computer problems so time to make some posts:

    Once went to school a whole day with an open fly (Gr 6 i believe)

    Once fell down stairs while heading to lunchroom (took down several people in front of me and was nearly trampled in the process)

    Once let out a huge fart during a silent reading class (couldn't hold it in was about 12)
    possibly my most embarassing moment as there were about 30 people there who then laughed at me for quite a long time

    EDIT- Well the first few seemed nerdy so i thought that was the whole theme that was going. Also it seems to be most embarassing/stupidest problem or mistake. Guess I was wrong (now this is an embarassing and stupid moment )

    Well, I'll tell you about a few that I can remember. Over time I'll tell more, since I can't remember everything at the moment.

    One time I made out with my girfriend on her parents' bed in her house, and they walked into their room finding us doing that on their bed. Not the most embarrassing thing, but bad I guess.

    I was at the beach and I had nowehre to get undressed into my swim stuff cause I was still fully dressed. So I went behind a tree and got undressed, then a whole bunch of people came by me and saw me. I can laugh at it now though.

    I can't remember this, but when I was like 5, apparently, I shit in a video store. Right inside the store, where people walk in. It was also on one of those spiky mats, you know, where they're... spiky, I guess. So it was hard to get it out of the mat, haha. My parents were... are ashamed of me.
