All
I wanted to do…
Was
drink my fresh brew…
Check
emails…
And
find a nice quote to post on Facebook...
About
Mother’s Day…
When
all of a sudden…
Up
pops the Final Media Player Pop Up.
It
needed updating or something.
Sure,
sure go ahead—click.
A
few minutes later it was done…
And
then there another pop up to accept.
Sure,
sure, I accept—click.
Then
I accepted something else—click.
And
another—click.
And
another—click.
Wait!
What
was I accepting?
Another
pop up popped up and—DAMN!
I
accepted Surf Canon? PC Optimizer?
Driver
Scanner? Yahoo as my default browser…
And
who knows how many more!
Are
you kidding me? NO!
I
didn’t realize I was accepting all of these!
It’s
not fair to take advantage of me…
At 5:00 in the morning!
That’s
it! I’ve had enough!
I’m
going to invent….hmm…let me see…
I
know—the SCANNY CAM…
This Scanny Cam will mount on computer screens…
Each
time someone wants to use their computer…
They have to look at the screen and be scanned.
The Scanny Cam will then calculate:
Are
the person's eyes fully open?
Is
the person at the computer fully awake?
Is the person capable of comprehending anything?
If
all these questions are not a ‘yes’…
Then
the computer will not allow the person…
To
download, buy, or accept anything.
And especially
if the Scanny Cam…
Sees
the person is taking out a credit card…
Then Scanny Cam will lock-up the keyboard...
Until
the person can fully prove they are fully functioning.
So?
Have
you ever been waylaid by pop ups?
Have
you ever accepted way more than you wanted?
Always,
Em-Musing
