I sneeze blue...
True to form, yesterday one of the toner cartridges we use for our big color laser printer, the one we intended to print lots and lots of stuff on to take to AC, exploded inside the printer.
And yes, I mean i had to take a vacuum and suck blue powdery toner out of the machine so it would stop making everything a sickly shade of green. It felt like deja vu, since the blue toner cartridge was what exploded before the last big con.
In fact, this sort of thing seems to happen right before Every con.
But! It was okay, I mean we'd planned for this! We'd ordered two sets of toner cartridges, I'll just lean over and pop in the second blue toner cartridge, and sure we won't have quite as many copies but...
*puffy cloud of blue toner in the face as the backup cartridge turns out to be trash too*
