Aren't you clever..!

If he spelled it phonetically I might be less annoyed with him (not really, the fat racist bastard)

Edit: genuine cleverness, btw. Never knew Wednesday was for Woden, God of humpday.

That almost always means that the clicker is wearing out. If you're handy with a soldering iron and desolder braid, replacements cost a few bucks. Otherwise you'll need a new mouse.

What's weird, though, is that this has happened before, but stops happening when I reboot the machine.

Tuesday, Thursday and Friday are for Týr, Thor and Freyja, respectively. Because whoever came up with the names of the weekdays really liked Nordic gods.

Ah. Knew about Freyja, never did make the connection between Thor and Thursday though  :-[

Thanks though, interesting trivia.

Monday and weekends are left out?

Actually, username?
Only person to bite so far, but as I've been seeing it and off for years now I don't really think twice about it.
Can't remember what I thought of it when you first started posting, but ExecuteDumbo has always been how I've seen it in my head.
Which is kinda macabre in hindsight.

The seven day week from the Romans who named them after celestial gods. The Germanic people just pasted a roughly equivalent god's name over the Roman one and called it a day.

Except Saturday. Saturn was odd. They didn't really know what to do there. So we have Saturday.

Not just some gods, but the seven 'planets'. Hence you've got the Moon and the Sun in there.
And it came from Greeks, via Romans.

Long story short I just had an 6vs4 match (instead of 5vs5 as it should be) in competetive MM.

Not really, since you can take over a bot. At least once it saved the round because one terrorist survived five counter-terrorists and I just finished him off with the bot. I felt dirty.
