Computer callous

A computer callous is located on the heel of your hand, usually the hand you use to move your mouse.

It is usually caused by the heel of your hand being rubbed against the mouse mat for long periods of time, usually during all nighters on the internet.

A computer callous is most often a little more red than your usual skin tone and is quite soft and smooth.

Computer Vomit

When your computer (usually involves a Microsoft product) decides to print or display a screen full of unrecognizable jibberish. This often will happen for no apparent reason and at the worst possible times, like when you are trying to save something important or watch porn. This usually leads most people to either destroy said computer in a fit of uncontrollable rage or break down in tears, whichever works better.
