Funny Bugs

"A new post? Now? But you only posted the last one an hour ago!"

Yeah, but I'm bored, plus it's around the middle of the night, so it's a new day. New day, new post!

So I've had this post on the agenda ever since a few days ago, when I decided to look at this site's robots.txt and found out that I accidentally put in .html as .txt. Every occurence of it. And that was on there for over a year. Bots could just freely roam those pages. Boy, was I dumb! Or just tired. Probably tired.

Those are what I like to call funny bugs! Bugs that are just so dumb or funny that you look back on them and laugh instead of cry. The second funny bug I'm gonna talk about is also my own!

Goldspace had a bug where the VGA Mode 13h driver worked... except it would output nothing but smilely faces. Of all the symbols, it had to TAUNT me with damned SMILES! Never mind, it's not that deep, it probably just happened to pick that symbol. This one isn't funny in the "ohh derp, one-line fix, stupid me" way, but it was bizarre, and comedy is from the unexpected. Or something like that. I don't know how that goes at the moment.

Let's see, another goodie. I couldn't think of anymore from my own software, so I decided to Google "funny bugs", but that only gave me funny looking bugs, shit. So I'm gonna look back into personal experience for this one. Skyrim. Whenever you got hit by a Giant, you flew to the goddamn stratosphere. I mean you could practically see ALL of Skyrim. But Skyrim's a Bethesda game, and those are bound to have bugs. If I remember correctly, when you ride a horse off a cliff/mountain, the horse dies, and you're fine! Or was that in Minecraft? Or does that even exist at all? Maybe I SHOULDN'T be writing articles in the middle of the night...

Welp, three's a good number, isn't it? That's all, folks!

...damn, I already used "That's all, folks!" once, didn't I? Yep, I did. In the first post of the blog, too! Oh well.
