For some random reason my wireless mouse adapter extension cable stopped working and the mouse buttons reversed themselves. What the hell kind of crap is that?

The mouse was gone so I figured that there was another display being detected. This wasn't the case as I could navigate with the keyboard so I plugged in a usb wired mouse and it worked, except the buttons were reversed. I pulled the bt mouse adapter from the extension and chucked it in a usb port and it worked again. It wouldn't detect in the extension cable anymore for some reason. It is frustrating when so much bullsh*t happens for apparently no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm like "don't farken lie you flamin pile of sh*t, I can see the farken cable is plugged in" lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
