The REAL bug

Hmmm, I just discovered that there is a bug in my computer. To the tech savvy people this might sound like I have some obscure problem that I cannot pinpoint and mistakenly says “there is a bug in my computer” and that the real case is that there is a bug in one of the libraries used by one of the programs used by my computer – not a bug in the computer itself.

However this is not the case. There is really a bug in my computer. Seriously! A small bug has wandered in behind the screen in my laptop. I can see it as I write this.
At first I tried to wipe it off because I thought it was on the outside, but it just wandered on not noticing me poking it. It was rummaging about behind my god damn screen! Too bad I cant take a screenshot of this!

Now, where do I report this bug? Ubuntu’s Launchapd, Gnome or X.org bugzillas?

    Particularly funny if you consider the story that bugs were called bugs due to that exact same thing happening in one of the first computers. I’m sure there’s a Wikipedia entry about it somewhere!

    Yes, I know :-)

    Perhaps it is a great ancestor of the original bugs :-)
