Every. Single. Day. And since the printer is out of ink, I can't even let him make art projects (demo prints) to distract him. My D&D group had gotten used to my interjections of "Julius! Don't push the buttons!"
Or... when your Labradoodle insists on nudging his head under your arm while you're typing, which results in a mish-mash of auto-correct sentences that look like you wrote something in Vulcan - only backwards.
I have to use System restore at least once a day. And now I have a laptop that the keyboard is non functional. Every key is wrong. and my cat weighs 25 pounds. I have to take it to be repaired. its beyond human help At least this human Can you see the connection?
Years ago, someone made an app (early humans termed such things "applications") called CatKeys, that detected random keystrokes and temporarily disabled the keyboard. I do know if it's still around, but it might help.
My cat once slept on my keyboard and somehow pulled up German midget porn. And I woke up to it. I’m not trying to kink shame her but that was a little traumatizing.
Same thing happened with my new t. V remote, the dog laid on it and brought me to a screen I'd never seen before, but it had options and settings that I didn't know I had. I went to grab the remote, and I accidentally xed out of it, and I can't get back to it lol
Cat has now turned computer into 3 different languages (at the sametime), reset your prestige, and got you perma banned on all of riot games all in 5 seconds 🤣
This was a common prank in the late 80’s. Go into dictionary. Make the rule: change “integration” to “masturbation”. So many people didn’t notice at first! 😂😂😂
Not only cats. My then 6 yr old nephew was spinning around on his dad’s chair in front of pc, threw an errant elbow and turned the entire desktop UPSIDE-DOWN. It took 2 frantic calls, a random techy that was known by the 2nd call who helped guide me thru Dante’s levels of hell. Like literally WTF?!
When your husband calls you from NY when you're in SC to say he can't make the remote to the tv work and you say what buttons did you push and he says all of them!
A pun my word . . . a fellow shameless pundit. A supervisor once told me (centuries ago), "A pun is the lowest form of humor . . . unless you think of it first." 😆
I have not had a cat since I was a child but whenever I was doing homework on the dining room table, one of the family cats would sniff the pen then lie across the paper I was writing and stretch. It's called evolution.
I was watching the final minute of a tight college football game when one of our cats stepped on the remote and changed the channel to the Home Shopping Network. They weren't selling cat products at the time, so I have no idea what he was thinking.
So when my hubby and I just started dating my cat Rex did this and Tony drove the hour to my house to fix it. Cats are magic. We have been married 9 years.
Mine did this last week. I had to restart. I have no idea what he stepped on but it opened a little “help” window that took up a quarter of the screen and wouldn’t move.
So like Russia has Spies that speak Spanish and might be mistaken for a regular Hispanic but is not. China Spies are up north near Wisconsin and those area they are building a emp weapon. Isis and muslisms are down in Mexico with Mexican gangs.
I've done it myself by accidentally hitting a *shortcut* I didn't know was there, but wasn't aware of what I'd hit so couldn't undo it!!! There are shortcuts everywhere!
This is why ALL keyboards should have a concealed Shortcut ON/OFF switch that we can switch on only for particular apps or uses.
Yep, my cat 'killed' my laptop mouse. Never got it working again. Had to buy an external mouse. Much better than bringing one of her real kills in to the house I suppose.
Cats and grand kids here...the only consultation I have is that if it happened to you, it has surely happened to someone else ...google has saved my a$$ on crap like this countless times.
My cat consistently shits the whole system down, requiring I reopen, enter multiple passwords and redo dual factor authentication. Making him the ultimate quadruple factor authentication system
Me constantly googling how the what’s wrong with my browser, then almost always how the fuck to turn off caret browsing. It’s almost always fkn caret browsing.
I can do you one better! I have a touch screen, and my cat will bat at anything that moves. He's completely locked up my computer requiring a forced restart.
🤣😂🤣 my cat did that, and for several hours, one of my screens was mirrored onto the tv in the living room. I’m a developer, so I’m sure it was a riveting watch.
Cats can repeat the same footfalls with annoying consistency. I had one who would activate "caret browsing" in Firefox by just running across the keyboard whenever she found I wandered away for a minute.
Been there with my cats, but worse was my daughter when she was about two. She sat at the keyboard playing a Windows children's game that was supposedly child-proof, (you couldn't exit it without a special command) constantly exiting all the way to the MS-DOS prompt.
There I was analysing move 30 of a correspondence chess game, when dear Misty rolled over onto the keyboard. She's been well-trained to avoid them when walking around.
Everything still looked OK, so I saved the analysis later.
Next day, moves 1-29 had vanished ("delete previous moves" executed).

Owner's manual; sorts of 'shake well before use' on the syrup bottles.
Then call I.T.
🤔
ARE YOU A CAT?!
😈😎🤭
(JK-I read your other post. 😂)
You're welcome, America.
I keep snoozing it because it cracks me up every time 🤣
:D
Accidentally touch a key, which changes something, but I don't know which key it was.
