HURR

[moonwise]

Sometimes at work, I have to amuse myself.

One of my friends ordered a remote control for Powerpoint presentations. You plug the USB hoozit into your computer, turn on the remote, and away you go. It advances slides, goes full-screen, has a timer in it, and is also a laser pointer. It is definitely Nifty.

As sarcasticval taught me, the proper term for "USB hoozit" is "dongle."

We were having our dry run for the Phase 1 review a week or so ago, and I brought my remote along for people to try out.

Me *brightly*: "Who wants to use the dongle?"

Room: *SPIT-TAKE*

They did like my Powerpoint dongle, though. I'll have to scare up the part number.

I will forever think of those as skanky dongles, thanks to a certain professor of Val's and mine.

Hee! Random lj shout out! I live to teach you all useless (and slightly pervy) facts.
