I was checking out some porn sites and my wife walked in and I couldn't find the "X" to close the damn window fast enough and got sprung.....

I jumped through a gate in some nullsec system, bringing much needed ammo in preparation for a big op. My Prowler was met by a hostile gang of 6 Drams - camping, perhaps waiting for me based on intel from 2 neuts I passed on 2 gates earlier. Of course, Prowler was fitted for fast travel in hostile environs. Pffftttt. No problems here.

Quick check, no bubble - gogogogogogo!!!

As I aligned to my tactical I hit F1 to cloak up. As I hit F2 for MWD, my FAT FINGERS hit F1 again and with the associated lag I had decloaked at the same time as I lit up like a Christmas tree.

blap, blap, blap, deaded.

..oo00oo..

Fit a cyno for a fleet to bridge reinforcements. Ran fingers across the F keys in fight to shoot.

Ever since then, cyno goes on ctrl+F8. Cool

My son pulled out my power cord after i jumped into a wh from my static highsec entrance with my orca.

There was a single devoter on the other side. I was 3k from the exit to high sec when he pulled it out.

Also I got podded and lost +5's

Better than placing a buy order for 250bil instead of 250mil.
