I was working on my poster for the conference all last week. It was pretty painful, but I finally got approval from my advisor, and I was ready to print out last Thursday. Yay! But, printing my poster was freaking pain! For some unknown reasons, the size of poster was 2100mm h x 900mm w. Well, if I convert this to inches, 83 x 36. Well, well, 83 freaking inch is super high! And, it’s 36 inch width... What’s the hell?? Okay, so this conference will be held in Japan, so I guess that’s how Japanese do posters? Am I making poster or Japanese scroll?? I don’t know! But, anyway, I made my poster size accordingly, and brought up to the printing room, and printed it out. When it was printing, I noticed something. My experiment was simple coffee making (well, it’s science!!), and I placed several distracters, so naïve subjects get confused (well, kinda). Anyway, forks were one of distracters. So, I was checking out my poster coming from the big printer, and then, I saw the word “folks.” Folks?? I was a little bit confused, did my folks appear in my experiment? I don’t remember I put that in my poster. Yeah, I spelled wrong. I spelled “Folks” instead of “Forks.” I was like “Shhiiiiiit!!” It was super easy to fix it, but thing is I was almost done with printing, and poster paper I was using was not cheap at all (glossy nice paper). I don’t have to pay a dime to print poster, but still it took so much time to print out, I was like “oh fuck, who’s gonna read my poster!” Then, my advisor came in to the printing room, and asked me “did you print your poster? You spelled…” “Oh, I know,” I replied. I think I am gonna stick actual plastic fork on my poster, so at least, it will be funny.
