But exactly just HOW bad it is has been undeterminable, until now. If you THINK that you've had a bad day, compare it with the following guidelines for a bad day. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: YOU KNOW IT'S A BAD DAY WHEN... ============================ You try to dry your hair in a microwave oven. Your little sister tries to flush a bannana down the toilet. You lose the piece of paper where you had your passwords written. You remember that you accidently threw out the piece of paper with all your passwords on it, and you have to rummage through 5 feet of garbage to look for it. After looking through the garbage for an hour, you realize that you have a text file of your passwords saved to disk. You forget to turn the computer off before you start messing around with the inside of it. Your air conditioner breaks down right in the middle of a heat wave. You accidently burn a whole in the floor during Chemistry Lab. You feel like listening to an ABBA album. You seal an envelope before you put in the letter. The radio station you're listening to starts playing the new song by George Michael and Elton John. You destroy your radio because it started playing the new song by George Michael and Elton John. You remember that you payed $150 for the radio which you just destroyed. You forget to turn off your computer while you're away for the weekend. Your car runs out of gas while you're driving in the South Side of Chicago late at night. You forget to study for a final exam. Your car gets stalled at a railroad crossing.

You attempt to extinguish a grease fire by pouring water on it. Your car has a full tank, but still doesn't run. You remember that, although your car only takes unleaded gas, you filled it up with regular. Someone else has used your handle while you were out of town, and has ruined your reputation. You begin to post a message but forgot what you wanted to post about. You hear the song by Elton John and George Michael so many times that you start to like it. You forget to adjust your clock for Daylight Savings Time and arrive at school an hour late. You see it begin to rain, and remember that you forgot to put the top up on your convertible. You try to boot a disk for 5 minutes, and wonder why it isn't working. You open your drive and find out that you put the disk in sideways. You realize that your disk drive head is probably ruined by now. You get Dead or Alive's "Youthquake" album as a present. You become sick to your stomach after getting a certain album as a present. Your furnace breaks down when it's 30 degrees below zero outside. You find out that you are blocking against William Perry in Sunday's Bears game. You try to lick the third rail on an "El" platform.
