    Have you ever been in a situation where the device is usually slow to work or most of the time fails to? And then you try and do some weird move or something (like holding out your hands and making noises) and then it just works?? And then you just feel powerful and magically???

    Surely I’m not the only one.:blob_tilt:

    Back when box TV were still a thing I used to hit it hard whenever the signal wasn't good, I just felt useful at that time I guess.

    Cause u know mom used to always scold how we are just nuisance, whenever tv didn't work she used to call me to make it work with my magic hands, oh and it was only my hits that worked (well mostly).

    It will never work for you but when you try and show others, it works.

    I had an old, and I mean old tube TV from my grandparents and when it was on too long you had to hit it a few times to get the tubes to reset in the sockets ... first thing I bought after I saved enough from odds jobs as kid was a new TV ...

    So if one day the world reverted back to old time TVs, does that mean both of you would have ample knowledge to whack a tv the right way.:hmm:

    No, I'd rather go back to stone age than experience that screen again. It's a curse worse than Midas touch.

    Something along the lines of how whenever a test’s coming up and I have not studied, it gets postponed or shifted. At least 90% of the time.

    You're not the only one. Ask mental asylum facilities denizens then you just might not alone in this.
    That said... Yeah... We all have that period...

    Yes yes. This also happens when I play games (not clash royal specifically, but a game). But I’m like a good mix between your brother and you
