Cause and Effect


I was sitting on my computer chair surfing the web, checking my e-mail, and researching my new topic. I saw this link under google.com, read the description, and thought that the information in the website would greatly help me in understanding my topic and theory. Then suddenly a pop-up came up on my screen. Then another and then another until my computer screen was covered in pop-ups and I could see nothing but ads. I had to re-boot my computer and start my research all over again. I was extremely angry at my computer until I noticed that I didn't have my anti-virus program on and I wasn't even paying attention to my safe search program. After I realized this, I then I then got mad at myself for getting angry at an inanimate object and that it wasn't my computers fault but my own human error. I was so mad at myself that I forgot the whole reason why that pop-up virus was even there. It wasn't my own fault or my computers fault. It was the jerk who created the virus and then put it up on the website's fault.
