In our vernacular
glitch
means a minor defect or malfunction. I have no idea what type
of glitches cavemen encountered. Although, I guess I can see a
guy squatting behind a rock off a well traveled animal path, club in
hand, jump out to surprise a large animal with a killing blow to the
skull with his, heretofore, dependable club, only to be surprised
himself by a loud CRACK emanating from his club.
Hopefully, he had
enough time to get away from the big beast with the large headache
before the surprise wore off the animal..
Here in the modern
world, with all its multi-tasking, one can be glitched by his
memory. "Honey, where is the checkbook?"
"...?"
Or his car,
computer, heating system, blackberry, cell phone or the world wide
web.
Yes, my weary
friend, you can be glitched in this life by many things.
Randomly, of course, but mostly at the worst moment...well, getting
glitched causes the worst moment, now doesn't it?
Thought minor the defect or malfunction may be, it might just cause a Rube Goldberg
type chain of events, which ends in your complete undoing. |
