Headphone FTW


Ever considerate, Bebe Geek, who likes to watch TV late at night, did not want to disturb others with loud sound decided to use a headphone one evening.


She plugs it in and got it to work without issue... but mentioned to Bee it's too bad she has to sit so close to the monitor.


Humble Bee tells her she shouldn't have to. The cord, when uncurled, is more than long enough to watch TV from the bed.


Oh....

Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse Not Working

S. Geek got a fancy Bluetooth keyboard and mouse a little while ago and proceeded to set them up. It took a good hour and she eventually got everything to work as intended. The keyboard informs her the currrent weather condition, it has built-in alarm and calculatator, and could possibly cook dinner.

All is well...


Except it fails to wake up the computer from sleep mode. She had to press the Power button everytime she needs to wake up the computer.


S. Geek contacted the product support and help desk and together they tried numerous things to no avail.


Humble Bee comes to the rescue: "So have you tried plugging in the Bluetooth receiver to the actual computer? It's plugged into the monitor now and that's still asleep."


Guess what? It worked.

Eepi or Epi

Geek: I like the "eh-pee" (Epi) leather pattern from LV.
Bee: it's not "eh-pee", it's "eepee"
Geek: "no, the sales lady pronounced it "eh-pee"
Bee: well, is EPIC pronounced "eepeik" or "ehpik"?
Geek and Bee: ... *silence*
Bee: *picks up a glass, takes a sip, looks away, and blushes*

I think it's fair to call this an epic fail.



Humble Bee: Mmm... purple....

Broccoli?

At our local grocery store,
Background info ~ Bee's likable vegetable includes asparagus and others. Bee does not like broccoli or cauliflower.

Bee: "we're getting broccoli?" *puzzled look as he picks up a bunch of asparagus*
Geek: "hm?" *sees a bag of asparagus and looks away*
Geek: "Yes, your favorite vegetable is definitely broccoli".
