You've learned something very important: Never read the instructions.
You have followed the correct procedure: Just click on everything. That's how I approached Windows 98 and I learned that most of the EXEs don't do anything.

Looks like even Northern Nevada is going to get some of that pineapple juice over the next three or four days. It should be snow this time of year but anything wet is welcome.

Re: Pineapple Express
We got hit with it overnight here. It only just stopped raining. (for now). I was out but didn't see a single pineapple.

Interesting.
My ex doesn't do anything, but I always just attributed that to insurmountable depression following the loss of my presence. Learning that most exes don't do anything requires me to reassess my conclusion.

The state to your East is enjoying the Express as well. Feels like April.

I have heard that you have to go outside, tip your head back, close your eyes, open your mouth and stick out your tongue. If you taste pineapple you are in the zone, but if you get hit with a pineapple, close your mouth.

Re: Pineapple Express
It really helps to click on the Do Nothing Button first though.

Re: Pineapple Express
It is an RPN based do nothing button. You enter the first and second variables and then punch the do nothing button to move nothing into the register. It was the initial result of creat.

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

How long does the effect of clicking that damn button last? I can't stay in bed for another week....

The first nothing to do is to stop hitting the button.
What browser are you using?
If Chrome then you should be up soon if not by now. Firefox is more reasonable and the button's effects should last only a few hours. If you're on IE then I'm afraid, being quite unpredictable, if your still in bed now then it may be awhile.
But, as I said, the first thing to not do is to click that button anymore.
