Things have smells. I know, this is a revolutionary idea and you may need to stop right here and take a breather while you process this massive revelation. Things that are brand new have a particular smell that vanishes shortly after hitting your nostrils. It’s lifespan is shorter than all three of my children’s attention spans combined. But it’s such a good smell for that one moment it lasts. How can we prolong this euphoria? Perhaps we could just keep buying new products over and over or get it in a spray bottle …those would probably work…but you know what we could also do?
Reformat our computer.
Call me crazy, but a freshly reformatted computer gives off a certain smell—come to think of it, that could be my power supply dying, but we’ll just watch and wait for flames. But as good as reformatting smells, one thing that stinks every time is all of my missing fonts that I have to reinstall again. For common apps and software, I wrote about using Chocolatey , but what about our fonts? I want them back like that one Nsync song . Well, by the end of this post, you’ll be ready to reformat your computer right away and not worry about being stuck using PAPYRUS. *shutters at the thought*
