Window jammed shut—trapped in my own room adventure

So yesterday, I was just minding my own business, trying to open my bedroom window to let some fresh air in, and the thing just wouldn't budge. Like, at all. I tried the usual wiggle-and-pull method, even gave it a few gentle taps (okay, maybe not so gentle), but nope. Nada. It felt like the window had decided to glue itself shut overnight or something.

Got me thinking...imagine waking up one morning and every window in your house is mysteriously sealed shut. What would you do next?

Had something similar happen last winter—window froze shut overnight. Ended up using a hairdryer to thaw it out... neighbors probably thought I'd lost it, blow-drying my window at 7am.

Haha, the hairdryer trick is classic! I've seen folks do way stranger things to get their windows unstuck—like the guy who tried pouring hot coffee on his frozen window (spoiler: didn't end well). Honestly though, windows have minds of their own sometimes. Glad you managed to free yourself without breaking anything... except maybe your neighbors' perception of your sanity at 7am.
