Ever been trolled by an inanimate object?

[Lord Legion]

Yes, and it is called the UNIVERSE!

My monitor has done it twice. For a while back and not so long ago.

One day my monitor just stopped working. I tried everything I could think off to see if I could get it to work, or to make sure that it wa the monitor that was broken. I deemed the monitor "probably dead". Then I just borrowed my brother's monitor, as his computer wasn't working anyways. One week later, my brother wants his monitor back, as he got the part to make his computer work. I gave him the monitor, and for the lulz, I plugged in my 'dead' monitor, to see if it wished to pull off a Jesus move. And it did. I still have no idea why that worked.

Not so long ago, the text on my monitor got blurry. So I reconnected the cable. Still blury. Then I just went for my brother's monitor, since he wasn't home, to see if it was blurry then. No blurrines at all. Then I quickly switched monitors again. My monitor still made it blurry. So just for checking, I connected my monitor to my brothers computer. And then my monitor wasn't making a blur out of that text. Confused, I just kept using my brother's monitor until he came home, and then switched. When my monitor was conected to my computer, the text wasn't blurry.

My monitor is a troll

I have been getting trolled by many different things over the years. Most recently with my computer and Xbox headset. The headset has had a history of occasionally ceasing to work properly and most recently the mic has stopped working. Last time it did something like this it had somehow been turned off. My computer has given me almost no end of grief lately. Sure it's over ten years old, but that's no excuse for freezing up on me for annoyingly long and random amounts of time. Sometimes, just when I think it's about to start working again, it either freezes up again or occasionally it will close the internet window on me without warning. When the later happens it usually takes another five to fifteen minutes just to get the window pulled back up.

My chair at work is in cahoots with the door handles. My sleeves keep getting caught on the latter and the former just spins around as and when it wishes to.

Also this.

I spent about 20 seconds re-clicking that link over and over, wondering why it wasn't working.
Good troll. -_-

Before it broke, no matter how many new songs I put on my iPod it would always shuffle the exact same ones over and over.

I am really bad at noticing glass doors. Also, there are some glasses in the cupboard that *always* fall on me if I open it, but only if I open it.

 

[Clinky]

Pretty much all the time really.

I've had a hard day in drawing class and I just want to go up to my room and lay down for a nap. I drag me and my large pad of newsprint paper up to the elevator and hit the button. I watch as it comes down to the floor just above the one that I'm waiting on: Only for it to suddenly go back up to the top floor leaving me there wondering if I really did just get trolled by an elevator.

You clever bastard.

OT: Currently, both my phone and my laptop will randomly drop to 0% battery life after usage. It gets really irritating. Also, my laptop battery was fritzing (not holding a charge, not charging properly, etc.). A week after I get off the phone with tech support, the damn thing starts working fine again.

Yep. My brother and I built a PC and it seemed to be running smoothly at first, but suddenly it started to crash on me at random intervals and it was never the same error message. I tried to figure it out myself, but had no idea what was causing it so I had my brother drive all the way to my house to look at it. It was usually crashing something like every 30 minutes to an hour for me, but my brother was at my house for about FIVE hours and NOTHING happened, so he left and told me to call him when it happens again. Not even ten minutes after he left it happened again... I swear a tiny troll face came up on that blue screen. >_>

Turned out it was a corrupted stick of RAM causing it.

EDIT:

You ingenious bastard...

Pens. Never work for me, second someone else uses them, they're fine and make me look like a retarded monkey. Pencils all the way.

Don't get me started on the printer. Fucking brat. NO! YOU ARE NOT OUT OF INK! I JUST REPLACED IT LAST WEEK AND HAVE ONLY USED YOU ONCE SINCE THEN!

Also building that have glass that goes to the floor and then glass doors. Makes me question my entire life every time I go to open them.

Mainly cords that I have in my pocket, such as earplugs for my iPod. I swear they are not inanimate, because they seem to move unnaturally much. Obviously in a bad way, getting all tangled up.

My Freesat (satellite TV) box likes to turn itself on and open the menu at about 3AM. Then I get up to turn it off and it goes off by itself. And the bathroom mirror in my house has lights around it which like to turn on by themselves.

You should check your tv settings, could very well be that it has a scheduled sync timer set at 3 AM. My computer had that with windows update, waking it up from Sleep mode in the middle of the night.

Last night a Pepsi machine cheated me out of two bucks. It registered the first dollar I put into it out of the $1.50 needed, but when I put in the second dollar ... nothing. It showed a balance of nothing and wouldn't let me get a drink. And it wouldn't give me anything back. Friggin' bastard. >:-(

Now I'm thirsty for a Pepsi. <:-(

Anyone who's had a pair of headphones in their pockets has been.
