So I tripped on the jog home last night and now I've temporarily lost most of the use of my left arm. I don't have a sling, so I constantly have to explain to people why I'm doing 'the Napoleon thing'.

I was waiting in line when somebody decides to give me a surprise hug as part of a joke. I think I reacted well considering what I was going through.

difference is, we tried flyswatters, and even if you manage to hit the fly in the air, it rarely does anything.

electric flyswatter makes it crash into the ground and you can then dispose of it with more swats.

also, the electrical flyswatter doesn't leave marks all over everything from squashed bugs.
But that deprives you of both tales of 'the one that got away' and war stories about how that splotch on the counters got there one fateful evening...

You don't just catch them midair and squeeze? (Yes, I'm being serious.)

You have to contort your fingers strangely on some keyboards for that, though.

I have no motivation to work on my game. What the hell is wrong with me, that I'm procrastinating my hobby!?

I am procrastinating to even play games, much less work on a hobby.

No right alt or ctrl on this keyboard.
ctrl-shift-esc only takes one hand.
Does this work for Windows log in as well as the task manager?

EDIT; Forgot to mention. The same fall that has taken my left arm also completely shattered my iPod Touch's screen. It was broken before but now it's unusable.

Also this.
I don't exclusively target them in the air >.>

also, it could make a great gag on some people, because mine looks like a badminton racket.
We used to have one, though ours was literally shaped more for tennis than badminton. Flimsy as hell too.
