Today, I took a shower after I finished typing an important essay I've been working on for days. My computer illiterate mum shut the computer down when I was gone, without saving a thing. When I confronted her, she yelled at me for "wasting electricity". FML

You should've gotten Microsoft Office 2007, if you know that there would be a possibility that your mom would do that. Office 2007 autosaves it just in case of sudden shutdowns. (My Laptop's got low specs, and shuts down suddenly frequently, so 2007 really helps.) Aside from that, you should've saved once in a while, especially if you've been working on it for days.

Not 100% appropriate to the situation, but as the saying goes: "Save often, crashes happen"

You were working on a paper for days without saving... and your MOM is the computer illiterate one? Pot. Kettle. Black. I'm going to make a second account so I can YDI you twice.

i have NEVER lost work due to not saving because EVERYTHING i write is hand written in a notebook first. i may change things or rearrange once i type it up, but by the time i type it, it's mostly finished. and who the **** leaves their computer to take a shower and doesn't save? you would think if you were finished you'd have saved, printed, and THEN showered. wth? YDI for being an idiot.
