My cats find some interesting keyboard short cuts.

You are about to open 326 tabs. This could cause your computer to slow down.(really)?
Friday night oh what the hell. click OK. It opens all of my you tube videos.
seems to have started opening the last ones that I had opened.

Got to hear The Pretenders over layed with Band of Brothers and a Ted talk about fungus. It just kept opening more videos. I had to move the cat . I was afraid my computer would catch on fire. Then I closed all the tabs. Bet my cats will
never find that short cut again.

Made me laugh.

In a very irritating automaton voice.

"Highlight Window."

"Return"

And speaking every letter you type.

I imagine it is for the vision impaired.

But I almost threw this thing out a window the first time before I figured out how to reset that damn thing.

It has happened enough that I can go right to the fix now.

But, that first time?

I just muted the damn thing.

No videos, music or audiobooks...for a couple of days.

lol
