I went through a big period of reading classic horrors. I still read Dracula about once every two years.

Listen to them. Children of the night. What sweet music they make.
To be honest, those programmer groupies can get tiresome.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Somebody keeps pricking their finger and bringing the book back to life again. Honestly, the number of white-nightgowned ladies I've had accidentally nick their fingers.... And me with light coloured carpets as well - takes an age to clean up.

True 'tis that Mary Shelley never named him, but who did the Creature believe he was:
Chapter 16 of Frankenstein: the Creature speaking:
"At length the thought of you crossed my mind. I learned from your papers that you were my father, my creator; and to whom could I apply with more fitness than to him who had given me life?"
«I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center» Kurt Vonnegut.

EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!
So the solution is DALEK(S)?
Or possibly DAVE(S)?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

We have a winner.
Well done for solving this before I went out - do you not ever sleep

Not for long! 5 or 6 hours a night (or less if the cat gets bored and attacks my feet).
So was the answer DALEKS or DAVES?

Word 2007, that is.
Finished typing my master's thesis with twenty or so beautiful drawings, the only thing left to add the TOC, list of tables and the list of figures. All my drawings are contained in the Word canvas feature so last night I proceed to add captions to my figures, create the list of figures and save. Close Word.
Make coffee, sit on my balcony, have a ciggie, feel blissful.
Go back in to send the paper to my mentor for the final review. Open Word to export the docx to PDF. All my drawings gone. Gone. Just empty rectangles instead of canvases. Cold sweat. OK, I have backups all over the place so the drawings are not lost completely, but still it will take me two days to finish the bloody thing again.
Did search the internet, same thing happened to a few other poor sods but no solution.
Canvas, I hate you. Word 2007, I hate you. Docx, I hate you. MS, I hate you.

I hope you get your thesis back

No problem, I have backups, but it will take me a couple of days to recreate it. It's just that this never happened to me before. I type all my papers in Word but I always use the doc format. I didn't even realize I was using docx this time until Word went left.

Yes, Latex is THE ONLY ONE to use for theses, scientific documents.
