Useless Information, Don't Read - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

I told you not to read, but if you insist.

BTW if this was posted by someone else previously and it's old news, tough shit. It's news to me.
...
(from some silly website someone sent me this morning)
...
MAGIC #1
An Indian found that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the Computer which can be named as "CON". This is something funny and inexplicable? At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened!
TRY IT NOW, IT WILL NOT CREATE A "CON" FOLDER
===========================================
MAGIC #2
For those of you using Windows, do the following:
1.) Open an empty notepad file
2.) Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
3.) Save it as whatever you want.
4.) Close it, and re-open it with notepad only.
Noticed the weird bug? No one can explain!
===========================================
MAGIC #3

Again this is something funny and can't be explained? At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened!
It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself?
Open Microsoft Word and type
=rand (200, 99)
And then press ENTER
And see the magic?..!

===========================================

I've tested the above 3 and they're accurate.

Out.

1 and 3 worked for me but 2 doesn't do anything. Interesting..

PurePursuit · 06-19-2009, 10:59 AM

They all worked, pretty interesting and useless as the same time.

Don't forget the Alt-F4 easter egg. Try it out.

Why the fuck would they put a limit as to not be able to name your folder "CON" ? And it's true. It didn't work here (Windows Vista).

Ditto. I'm using Win7 RC.

#3 produces the Touch Typist sentence that uses all the letters of the alphabet. (But 235 pages!!! Reminds me of Jack Nicholson in the Shinning!!)

"Bush hid the facts" trick gives me this: 畂桳栠摩琠敨映捡獴 , which translates to Text and Web - Google Translate
