I see a window of opportunity

That may be so, but is said window actually **open** for you to "acceptably" pass through it, or do you hafta BREAK THE GLASS to get in? Figurative speech, of course --- what it means, obviously, is that not every opportunity you may encounter was meant to be taken, ya know --- just because you CAN do something self-enriching doesn't mean that you SHOULD... for example, if someone has accidentally revealed a "privileged" tidbit of information, that is **not** implied or actual permission for you to utilize said info for your own benefit! Or maybe someone did indeed unknowingly leave something of value just lying around, but that doesn't give you the right to simply take it! Before you just "go grabbing" in cases like this, pause a moment to run the idea though your "Golden Rule analyzer" --- in other words, consider if this would really be fair to everyone involved, especially if you have no quarrel or resentment against said careless person, and therefore you would not be inclined to perform vengeful actions against him! And ask yourself what YOU would want done in an instance like this if YOU had been the one who had inadvertently exposed himself to possible loss or humiliation like this... would you want someone else to just gleefully avail himself of said "blood-opportunity", or would you strongly prefer an observer to just promptly inform you of your error so that you could hastily correct it???

Some repairmen had unwittingly neglected to observe a loose door-latch on a side-entrance to a public-assembly building that I had always enjoyed visiting, and so my initial knee-jerk reaction was to think, "I see a window of opportunity!" in that this unsecured door meant that I could secretly access said meeting-house whenever I wished, even when it was locked up. But then I remembered how kind and generous and accommodating the officials of said establishment had always been to me, and so I forlornly forfeited said "wonderful option" and "did the right thing" instead --- I immediately speed-waked downtown and informed one of the community's seniors about the defective lock. He was extremely grateful to me, warmly praised me for my conscientiousness, and even graciously gave me one-time permission to utilize said unsecured door to slip back inside the now-closed building and finish making a movie ("You may even turn some lights back on to brighten up the room enough for your camera!") of the hall's delightful interior furnishings, even though it was technically "after hours" and so nobody else was there.

Window

Something you'll have to email your university halls 'defects team' about because the latch has bent in the wind.

Also something you obscure with a blind when you want to start wanking.

Person 1: I've got a business proposition for you involving a definitely not pyramid scheme with windows.
Person 2: I see through your proposal.

Windows Me

A Windows OS released on September 14, 2000.

During it's first months, there wasn't as much hate against it, but then people started to hate on it.
Why? because it was unstable and buggy, and most importantly, rushed.
It's Devs rushed it because they wanted Windows 98 users to have new features while waiting for Windows XP, which released later on October 25, 2001, with XP receiving much praise.

It ended support on July 11, 2006.

at least be slightly grateful of it because it gave us Windows Movie Player, and it walked like great-grandma, but so Windows XP could run like the flash.

One day in 2003....
Loonixtard: grrrr fuck Windows Me
Timmy: what? I'm using Windows Me. ok you know what? I'll upgrade to Windows XP or Windows 2000 if I see one more person making fun of me using it-
Loonixtard: SWITCH TO LINUX SWITCH TO LINUX SWITCH TO LINUX SWITCH TO LINUX SWITCH TO LINUX SWITCH TO LINUX

Joey: Who remembers Windows Me-
Windows XP user: who uses Windows Me anymore?
Joey: but its only 2007-
Windows XP user: I know, but most people use XP, ok?
