Attention Customers: DON'T DO THIS
I often close the bakery alone, so sometimes it takes me a minute or two to either notice there's someone at the counter or for me to be able to actually go over and help them. Often when I ask if they need anything, the answer is "No, thanks." I will tell them that if they do need anything to just call out because I will be right over there behind those cases and will run right over, and then we all go about our lives.
It frustrates me to no end, then, when fifteen minutes later someone from another section of the store walks over and tells me I have a customer in need of assistance and I go over to find the same person standing there looking annoyed at me.
I asked if you needed anything! I told you to call me if you changed your mind! HOW IS THIS MY FAULT? I CANNOT READ YOUR MIND. arg.
...and then I get home to find out that YouTube hates everyone and took away much of Top Gear. awjkseugd bngghkliopf;,bjh blarg

Played more Jak. Am now farther along than I had been before and the game is still working. Spiffy.

In some of these cases, I suppose you could argue I've counted them incorrectly, since I'll sometimes be knocked off a ledge into a pit or some Dark Eco or something, and will then count it as a falling death, even though I wasn't directly responsible for the fall and should perhaps be blaming whatever hit me off the edge. I'm just listing whatever is directly responsible for the screen reloading.
This amuses me. I will have to keep doing it. :D
