I hate Math

It got me thinking very hard about what's wrong with my Google account a few minutes back.

It all began when I clicked the send button in the compose mail page while I was trying to send a nasty parsi joke to a parsi friend of mine and his girlfriend, my friend since college.

As I clicked the send button, Google "Goggles" would show up and wouldn't let me share a laugh with my friends till I did not solve a bunch of simple math problems.

Annoying as it can get, pressing the cancel button was no help, and being very slow at doing the math wasn't beneficial either.

Irritated, I quickly solved the problems, the message got sent and I rushed to check (somehow) for which sonovabitch hacked my Gmail account and signed me up with the Goggles feature to make me solve math at this ungodly hour -- that too out of the blue!

Anyhow, I checked Labs settings -- Goggles is enabled (Grr.. who diddit?).

Well, I did. I had just forgotten that it is meant to check my drunkenness, sleepiness, out-of-senseness factor before sending out a mail at early bird hours such as these.

Lovely.

Ahem! (echo)
