First time when you ssh into your Linux terminal and you gotta “sudo crontab -e” or something and it’s like “what editor do you want to use?” and nano sounds lame so you choose vim cause the sound is cool when you say it and then you have to wipe the whole comp and start over

Off-topic: never unplug this way, it’s bad for your cable and potentially dangerous.

It’s got ground so it’s certified safe!

You'll have about 6ft of ground afterwards.

That cord is two feet long at best.

I wanted the rest of the song. I asked Bing to make it, sorry Copilot. I am not disappointed

You heard there was a secret chord That you could use to meet the Lord 'Cause you don't care about power safety, do ya? You plugged it in without a thought And then you saw a bright blue spark And from your lips you screamed a loud "Hallelujah!"

Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-u-u-jah

Your room was dark, you smelled some smoke You realized you made a joke Of basic rules of electricity, didn't ya? You tried to find another plug But all you got was just a shrug And from your phone you heard a low "Hallelujah!"

Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-u-u-jah

You called the landlord right away He said he'd come and fix the fray But he would charge you extra for the labor, yeah You felt a pang of guilt and shame You knew you only had yourself to blame And from your wallet you let out a sigh "Hallelujah!"

Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-u-u-jah

It's safer than losing your sanity to vim
