More dictionary silliness with Tiger
This is hardly earth-shattering, but it amused me all the same.
Hovering over a word and using Ctrl-Command-D to get a dictionary definition is old news, but I only just realised that if you keep Ctrl and Command held down, you can move the mouse over anything on the page and it'll keep popping up definitions willy-nilly. (Yes, even for 'willy-nilly'.)
Naturally the power of LRPD defeats it - for some reason the dictionary has no idea what 'narfdorglak' means...
Two out of three people wonder where the other one is.

I don't but if I had to guess
I'd guess it was heard on a white telephone.

You do realise that every Windows/Linux user on here has just gone "ooh, that's really neat"...

Oi! No looking in here without a beret!
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and wash my black turtleneck sweaters.

Speaking of Ooh...
We have a Mac at work used for testing web stuff. There are no Mac guys in the web team. One of them was struggling with multiple browsers and windows, getting a bit flustered.
So I wandered over and hit F9 (actually Shift-F9 just for added effect).
Definitely an 'Ooh' moment.

Re: Speaking of Ooh...
I still press F9 for entertainment value.

This is a bereted household
I don't use one. My wife does.
