MacBook Pro Screen Looks Drunk

This post was published more than a few years ago (on 2007-06-19) and may contain inaccurate technical information, outmoded thoughts, or cringe takes. Proceed at your own risk.

So, I'm noticing over the weekend, parts of my screen look… fuzzy. Like out of focus. Like perhaps the whole glass-LCD-backlight thing has gone out and partied and had a bit too much to drink--- like throwing-up-in-the-gutter, epic levels of alcohol intake--- and the next morning it wakes up and says, "crap, I really still can't even see straight, let alone keep all my layers glued together to give that crisp, in-focus look that I'm usually so good at."

Has anyone seen this on their MBP? Because I thought maybe I was crazy, but I'm pretty sure now that it's not me, it's the Mac, and like a steering wheel in a Scotsman's pants, it's driving me nuts.

UPDATE: I figured out what it was when I bumped my cursor into the corner of the screen... and it moved. Seems when I last used the ctrl-scroll trick to zoom in on a chunk of my screen, when I zoomed out, I went back to 100.00001% scale, instead of 100%, thus the wonky display. Hopefully this entry to the Googlepedia may help some other poor soul who does the same stupid trick.
