20	->'''Ellen:''' Let me tell you something. I've been repairing computers since I was twelve. And, although computer science is supposed to be a really logical, hard science kind of thing... I swear to you, I've come to believe in the existence of gremlins. \

41	->'''''Bilders touch''': opposite of the MidasTouch, wherein anything one comes in contact with will immediately begin to destroy itself. Named for Frank Bilders from VideoGame/FarCry2, a game in which weapons go from pristine shiny new models [[ReliablyUnreliableGuns to corroded jam-happy and explosive-prone wrecks]] in less than a full hour's worth of use. Distinct from the [[Literature/TheDresdenFiles Dresden touch]], where the end result is the same but an actual reason for it is given, e.g. magic interfering with technology as with that phenomenon's namesake Harry Dresden. Also seems to effect economic decisions made by the individual with the touch, if the Platform/{{Steam}} Market's insistence on ruining the value of everything I own is any indication.''
