You're a filthy, filthy little macbook. So I noticed that my macbook palm rest was discolored, and I assumed that I had done something wrong, like failing to wash my hands thoroughly after digging up my sprinkler system. Then I noticed two cracks along the base of the palm rest.[more inside]

Then I googled about and found the discoloration was a problem with the plastic used on the palm rest, and the local apple shop replaced the entire face of my palm rest area and the track pad surface as well. Hooray! I'm not sure where the inclination to blame myself came from, although I see people blame themselves all the time when using poorly designed software.

Incidentally, how do I use the More Inside thingy?

Just put your cursor where you want the more inside to start and click the [MI] button. It will insert your code. You will see it all together in preview but it will more inside when you post.

Ah, thank you. I kept looking for a closing tag, and the non-wysiwyg preview threw me off.

If you wysiwyg the preview you would not be able to review and edit your full post. A bit confusing maybe but the only way to do it.
