Nice Try, Microsoft

I can't decide what's funner: this story, or Cuba Gooding, Jr.'s attempts to salvage his acting career. Either way, hilarity will ensue.

stop it, MS word, for christ's sake

Microsoft Word needs to stop repaginating my thesis every time I indent a paragraph. For Christ's sake, I've force closed and reopened this document 6 times in 10 minutes. Please, please let me just finish this paper.

Why do you need to repaginate it anyway? Didn't you paginate it well enough the first time? Tighten up!

Dear Microsoft,

It seems your Windows operating system likes to use virtual memory to tell me I'm running out of virtual memory.


Don't do that. Tell those programmers to tighten up.

Sincerely,
Someone who will never use Vista [opens flash video].

Dear Papyrus Font,

It's time to bow out. It's too late to do so gracefully, and I'm sure you'll disappoint some Irish pub owners, homemade-greeting-card-making mothers, and highschool science fair students, but they're happy-go-lucky folks and can handle it.

At some point or another, we all fell prey to your vaguely mysterious angles, irregular serifs, and simulated brushstrokes, but let's be honest here: who's still wearing slap bracelets, fannypacks, and pump sneakers? Exactly.

Microsoft fontdustrial complex, tighten up.
