Ever wish life had an Undo button?
Heh, this brilliant xkcd comic pretty much perfectly describes my last 3 major upgrades to computer desktops or servers:

That cracks me up! I often try to fix something small and annoying, and end up breaking it completely. So many times, I wish I could go back in time and try to just be happy with the small annoying little thing that prompted the attempted fix in the first place. This also applies to attempting to fix cars, big screen TV's, and washing machines. Wouldn't it be convenient if life had an Undo button? (Check out more genius comics from xkcd.com here.)

@lizzie_wizzie@xanga - Or a CTRL ALT DEL so you could just concentrate on one thing when there is far too much going on.

Sure..sometimes, but it wouldn't really do me any good. Live and learn.

of course it would be so nice if life had an undo button but then the tape also stopping rolling in the movie called life also...i rather do the mistake and learn from it than never to learn from it.

I'm not a guy, but this happens to me a lot! I can never seem to just ignore the really tiny problems in the beginning, and end up getting into worse conditions than I was originally in.

Ctrl + F and Ctrl + Z would be really useful in life. : )

I'd like a loooooooong space bar for when I'm in a bad mood. As much for myself as for everyone else's sanity.
