Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Pinned tabs sound useful, but what does right-clicking translate to in Mac?

Usually clicking with the Command (aka, Butterfly) button.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ctrl, not command, I think. Two-finger tap on a trackpad is what I use (or two-finger tap on iPad screen). Here's a rundown of several options, Burrell [link]

There's probably also a keyboard shortcut for pinning tabs but I don't know it.

It's not a pulled muscle in my shoulder, it's a catscratch all the way across my shoulder blade.

Time to trim the cats' claws.

Also, hot and stale in my office.

Hey, all.

what does right-clicking translate to in Mac?

The first thing I do on ANY Mac I find myself sitting at is to set up right-clicking and two-finger tapping in Settings. It drives me nuts that this functionality isn't enabled by default - why on earth would anyone NOT want the option to bring up contextual menus?

Hi Cindy!

If they're my mother and keep accidentally right-clicking on everything. (She programmed computers that went to the moon. She can't figure out a Mac.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm not sure I can handle the extra negativity in my life, but I am now following Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy on Twitter.
