Today, while I was using my computer, my cat ran up to the power strip, looked me in the eyes, and hit the power switch, turning everything off. She does this quite often. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my cat decided that the best place for her to pee was over the surge protector where my modem, router, and printer are plugged in. FML
Today, my cat decided to use my keyboard as a scratching post, and now my computer won't work. FML
Today, I tried to pet my cat. By doing so, I accidentally shocked her with the static electricity in my fingers, and she slashed my face in retaliation. FML
Today, I was in an online meeting when my cat decided to say hello. To do this, he walked in front of my screen, completely obscuring it in his fur. He then logged me out of the meeting by walking across the keyboard. Three times. Every time I tried to pick him up to make him stop, he got upset and attacked me. FML
Today, my cat knocked my phone into the bathtub. I grabbed it, dried it, and put it on the charger without thinking. Five minutes later, the bathroom lights went out and my landlord texted me asking why the fuses had tripped. FML
Today, I was lying on the floor playing with my cat. I was holding her in the air, when my sister tripped over the TV cord and unplugged the cable. The TV made a loud fuzzy sound, I got scared and threw my cat in the air. I got scratched in the face by a falling cat. FML
Today, as I was trying to fall asleep, I was jolted awake by my oldest cat who'd decided it would be perfect to power-puke all over my bed. FML
Today, I accidentally shoved my finger up my cat's butt while trying to push him off my nightstand in the dark. FML
Today, my sister's kitten walked away from his litter box, jumped onto the table, looked me dead in the eyes, then peed directly onto my laptop. FML
Today, I learned that as adorable as it might be to watch your cat follow your cursor around the screen, the humor ends when she dives into and breaks the monitor. FML

That is the coolest thing ever. Your cat is such an asshole! A hilarious, intelligent, feline asshole!

The fact that she looked you in the eyes meant she knew EXACTLY what she was doing.

Cats are pretty intelligent. She probably wants attention and whereas most cats act out by meowing, clawing furniture, etc. she has learned that she can get your attention by hitting that switch. It's like a toddler, it doesn't matter if the attention is positive or negative, just that it's given. Try spending more time with your cat and see if it works. And don't yell at her or chase her when she does the power strip any more and when she learns she can't phase you that way, the behavior will become extinct.

YDI for not moving it or doing something to prevent it if this is a common occurrence, however, your cAt is most definitely an asshole. Lol

Try covering the power switch with something so your cat can't flip it

Hopefully you've quickly learned that you need to save whatever you're doing when you see her coming.
