Ok, so my computer is making this awful, awful fan noise. No, just the normal fan noise, but I find it particularly irritating today. So to overpower the fan, I put in a music CD (mp3s) to play to drown out the whirring.

Well, the music starts up ok, but then I notice that my CD drive is whirring even more loudly than the fan. In fact, the music now has this low hum in the background, coming from the CD drive.

I’m going to put my computer in a box. And then I’m going to put that box in another box. And then I’m going to mail that box to myself. And when the box arrives, I’m going to hit it with a hammer until it’s dead. Extra points for those who recognize the movie!
