Once upon a time there was a physics professor named Dr. Stokes. He has a handy dandy pen that can write on his computer screen which then shows the class his written material on a projection screen. (Technology is so advanced these days.) One day the said Dr. Stokes writes something in a hurry, making a mistake. He leaves it there, not wanting to go back and fix it as the material is still understandable. As he continues on in his lecture, a student asks what his mistake meant, thinking it wasn't a mistake.
Dr. Stokes says, "Oh...mmmm....well," as he is thinking about whether or not to fix his mistake with his hand hovering over the laptop, wanting to go down and fix this. He decidedly tries to find the eraser icon on his computer. He goes through quite a tedious process to finally get the eraser functioning. Once he's erases what he thinks needs erasing and redraws what he needs to, he confidently nods his head at the screen then looks up at the class and says,
"Does that make sense?" The same student raises his hand again and says,
"It is the exact same as before." Dr. Stokes then looks down at the computer and to his utter shock and dismay the student is right!
"That's not what I wanted to erase!" he scolds the computer. And he goes through the same utterly tedious efforts to find the eraser icon (even though it was very easy to find) and then finally erases the correct mistake and fixes his material and then everyone is satisfied.
Maybe it was funnier in person. I was very entertained by his devotion to getting the eraser back. And just devotion was wasted after he erased the wrong thing and had to go through the entire process again. I enjoyed it. :)
