Take a slow computer. Make it unstable and prone to crashing more often than a Turkish designed car.
Add a load of work that needs to be done today. Except that the machine is so slow it takes ages to do anything, and then it crashes.
Result - rising blood pressure. An urge to go out and kick someone or something very hard. In the crotch.
And the deadline continues to get closer. So here I am naffing around in the fora while waiting - again - for the damn machine to do stuff and hopefully not crash. Again.
Or I might just go out and bite someone.
