Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It'd go great with my "on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary." shirt.

Easy, once you have the solution 
Superfluous = over (in the sense of Extra)
horse unable to rise = Cast
Nebulous = Cloudy = Overcast.

horse unable to rise = Cast ? Eh ?

A horse that can't get up by itself is said to be "cast".

So, what did you choose? A, R, F? I must know.

Nah, you have to wait for the floppy disk to be ready - otherwise it all just gets buffered and your keyboard will start to beep each time you touch it.

Easily resolved: just pull out the keyboard plug and reboot.

Ooo! You don't want to do that! There is (or was in them days) a soldered in fuse on the MB (it looked like s green, bandless resistor) on the keyboard line. If you plugged the KB in while the power was on, there was a good chance the fuse would blow - and your PC would see a keyboard again until you got out the solder sucker and welding iron...and as far as I know it's still there...

At work, the coffee stand offers only Ricoffy[^] instant, and the stuff is only just drinkable. So, I buy my own Jacobs[^], at close to ZAR100 (USD10) for a jar and keep it at my desk, carrying it to the coffee station and back to make a cup. Last week I left it there and forgot, and on Monday it was gone.
Now, if not for the law, I would plant another jar of Jacobs liberally laced with Datura Stramonium, and let the thief trip his head off in hell for the three days after his first cup. Then, again if not for law, and HR, I would pack it stock full of laxative, but administering a medication without the recipient's knowledge might get me a final written warning at best.
So, I have come up with a harmless, but - for the thief of course - highly embarrassing revenge: I will fill an empty Jacobs jar with cheap coffee and loads of strong purple, pink, or green dye. The thief will have to explain to their boss when they ask to go home, or remain at work with a brightly coloured face, with everyone having being emailed as to why.
