Just had a forced install of this POS at work. Is it me or did they make their icons using mspaint ? They look awful, all grey with no shading. For the company having so many design SW in the portfolio, this must be some sort of joke. Plus the rendering seems a bit cluttered, since on my machine it looks even worse than on below screenshot, like the display of a jpeg that has been 10 times printed out and rescanned as a jpeg.
For those wondering, I am referring to this:

I tried reading to acrobats, but, while the money was great, they kept flipping out on me, so I took up programming.

Why is your screenshot link redirecting to a very dodgy looking download site to download Acrobat Reader? 
Maybe that's why your icons are crap. If you've downloaded it from an unofficial source, you've probably infected your PC with all sorts of nasty malware.

The image he is supposedly referring to is placed in a tab on the page. Nevertheless fixed the link for him before someone decides to apply the hammer.

Mmmhhh... Sorry for that, but it could be that I am not the culprit here ( automatical Clickety script?)
My Adobe is official, it was installed by our IT department, not by me.

I fixed the link for you. It somehow did not point to the image, but to some dubious download page containing the image in a different tab.

I thought I was the only one to think that...

ms paint?
Luxury!
They drew them with leftover stubs of crayons, and photographed them with a phone.

Luxury!
We used to dream of having left-over stubs of crayons.
We drew our icons with mud and twigs. And when we were finished, we used to have to hold them up for an hour while Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre took a picture[^] of them.

Chances are I'd be listening to them if they stopped me.

Yeah... and how big is P.E.I? If you can circumnavigate the island in a few hours, if that, how long will you be in the cruiser? Will one song finish?

So they'll take you in via the scenic route.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Nickelback
Is that the worse they can do?
Doesn't anyone on PEI realize we also have Celine Dion and Justin Bieber?
Maybe the UN human rights commission told 'em this is where they had to draw the line.

Quote: Pictured with the post was a sealed, mint condition cassette copy of Nickelback's Silver Side Up and the closing message: "So please, let's not ruin a perfectly good unopened copy of Nickelback. You don't drink and drive and we won't make you listen to it."
Cassette? How old are those police cruisers?

I thought all the Canadian police rode horses, so maybe they've modernised.

The FBI found this by going after Child Pron peddlers and customers on the darkweb using Tor. This zero day find helped arrest some really messed up individuals. Tor uses mostly Mozilla browser code base, thus the warning.

Tor browser is based off of Firefox because Chrome doesn't have enough extensibility to allow it to be effectively hardened[^].
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?

So Firefox has joined the rest of the browser makers in saying "Don't use Firefox!".
