for gen_drabble challenge 13: google

Jul 15, 2009 18:42

Time spent translating carvings on stone arch encountered on PX-3042: 178 minutes
Time spent isolating search terms: 36 minutes
Time spent navigating unnecessarily complicated search screens: 14.5 minutes
Time spent waiting for search to run: 92 minutes
Discovering that there are only two results and one of them is a sentence fragment:

"You'd think the Ancients would've figured out a better way to do this. I mean, really: stargates but no Google--not to mention their complete inability to keep proper records. It's no wonder they're all dead!"

Watching Rodney attempt spontaneous combustion from sheer irritation: well worth the hassle.
