You're Holding It Wrong

1. Steve Job's joke of an excuse when customers complained about loosing reception on their new iPhone 4 mobile devices, a problem that occasionally occurs from gripping the phone in the left hand corner and thus shorting out the outer antenna band.

2. A condescending cop-out response from a person way too smug and hipster to admit there could be a problem, no matter how small it could be.

3. A sarcastic response one might joke to a friend when they can't get something to work.

4. An corporation's attempt at consumer socialism.

Friend 1: "Ah man, my phone dropped another call. What is this BS!"

Friend 2: "You're Holding It Wrong."

holding in a restart

Term used for when Windows asks if you want to restart now or later, and you choose later. Also fair warning when online that you might restart any minute. Its the same as holding in a shit in that eventually, you have to do it. Thus, "holding in a restart".

Bob: Ey, just to let you know I'm holding in a restart.
Steve: Gotcha.

Harding's Law

The tendency to notice mistakes shortly after a resource is made public. Characterized by a direct correlation between the impact of the mistake and the size of the audience. Variant of Murphy's Law.

"Oh no! I didn't catch that typo until after I hit the 'Publish' button! Harding's Law, huh?"

"Why is it so reliable that I see an error in a file 30 seconds after I send it out? Must be Harding's Law at work."

e-hoarding

To keep all your electronic files and messages and other "data" until it piles up for no good reason, such as saving ridiculous numbers of email messages that you'll never look at again.

if I don't give up e-hoarding and do a mailbox purge, I'm going to exceed my 7GB gmail limit!
