What are some problems or stupid stuff your computer has/does.
Firefox is "sorry" it just closed all my tabs. This happens anywhere from 1-5 times every few hours. Usually it will recover my tabs, the problem comes when this causes my sound to stop working.
Right now my computer is in it's no sound state. It's not that the sound is turned down on the speakers or controls, its just something my computer does, and to get sound back you have to restart the computer.
Restarting the computer is a hassle because it takes about 35-40 minutes before you can even click on an icon and another 5 or so minutes to load that program, so you'll be there awhile.
Another thing that happens often recently is loss of internet connection. It will work fine, but at about 1am which is usually when I'm just getting online, it sometimes randomly loses connection. I don't think its the cable company because my brother usually fixes it, I should ask him how tbh.
What about you? What does your computer do that it shouldn't?

This computer has been pretty good so far and it's usually very quick to start up. Occassionally it will restart itself for what seems to be an unknown reason.
With the webcam, I often have to unplug it and plug it back in to get it to work. For some reason it doesn't like to work on the first go. It's annoying.

My computer can be weird sometimes. Mozilla crashes at least a couple of times a day for no reason whatsoever. I hate that.
My webcam also messes up like Beau mentions. It won't show the webcam and/or have no sound. So you have to plug it in and back out. It can be annoying.
My computer used to be really, really slow at starting up because all of the programs trying to open. I went into each of the programs settings and turned off the start program when you turn your computer. I haven't had that problem. It takes about 5 minutes to load up, so it's not as bad anymore.
