If there's one subject I can easily say I'm more tired of than goblins it's Y2K paranoia that is currently gripping the muggle world. Except I don't think it's paranoia because I really don't want to be in London if the tube stops running because the computers are down or something.

Thank Helga I can apparate.

Except that's not going to help me with my growing addiction to Coronation Street if the tellys are affected too.

	The way the computer code is written. I know they have actual people driving them, but the news just had a bit on the electrical stuff and how utilities are in danger. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not on purpose. I don't think. It has to do with how computer programs how are written, but I don't actually know how that's done. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I told her I'd come over and help if her dishwasher stops working. I think that's her primary concern. Not that she and my dad eat so much that there's a lot of them. That and her phone. I tried to convince her to keep an owl, but she hates them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My mum and dad have already made plans to go to my grandparents in the country. Dad's been squirreling canned goods, and Mum's already trying to speculate on how they would've continued Casualty. I supposed after one near-apocalypse, there's not much point in trying to persuade them that another isn't on the horizon. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I told people I was a 2YK consultant when I was on the run in Aberdeen. Nobody bothered me much. I say pop down to the local Global Video, rent every Corrie VHS they have, and set yourself up to binge-watch. You can provide the electricity if SSE fails. And who knows, the tapes may be 100 years late when you return them. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	You could probably sell your story to Scotland on Sunday for enough to cover the fines. 50p x365 days = 182.50 *100 years. Only 18 thousand quid per tape! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
