Three hours of messing around trying to get my Mac to play back some loops and every time I start the computer, a song I wrote 5 years ago keeps starting up for no reason and playing over the speakers.
I even turn off my audio software and it still keeps playing.

Seriously, it's like these things have a mind of their own that's designed to totally piss ya off.

Finally, I realize my Control Strip is set to automatically play an MP3 on startup and wonder what the heck is going on.
Then Michelle comes in and tells me 'oh yeah... I turned that on last night.
Guess I shoulda turned it off huh?

Well.... I strangled her and buried her body in the backyard if anybody's interested.

It seems to me that the computer wasn't responsible for any of your frustration.

That's no computer problem, the loop stuff maybe... but the mp3 autoplayback is a problem that lives between the chair and the keybord... regularlly called "user"... bro... chicks should have their own computer... never mess with a man gun, car, guitar and computer... :D
Power corrupts. Absolute power is kinda neat.

Sorry ladies, couldn't agree more. I called tech support earlier for some help bridging my modem, she asked me what that is. I mean, damn lady, your suppose to be tech support. So I hung up and found a chat to help me.

And here's a video on messing with other peoples things (few curse words.)
