It started with a straw man argument...

I just went to a Microsoft website for one of the many profiles I have (Outlook, MVA, MCP, Support, Profile, disaster  ) and I got the following message:
"Please click the Microsoft account icon [SIGN OUT] to sign in or create a Microsoft account."
Oops, they did it again!

If by "hurry the f*ck up" you mean punctuality, why yes, it is a virtue.
Unfortunately, it's never been one associated with computer hardware or software.

Because, it is not, even you were not patient when you wrote it!

Perhaps because cursing and demanding another perform in accordance to your self-fabricated expectations is not considered virtuous?
|
|
|
|
|
Because that's a requirement.

Though of the day is cancelled for today, due to the need to take Herself to the Dentist for a routine checkup. A process involving deceit, subterfuge, handcuffs, a cattle prod, and a rolled up carpet.
She really doesn't like dentists, and I'm suffering from the trauma involved. And a bleeding from my eardrums.

You could have just said, "I am feeling thoughtful", which would have sufficed.

I'm not - I'm feeling battered, mentally scarred, and thoughtless...

Being thoughtless is being thoughtful in itself.

Do dentists like their pasta al dente? 
|
|

I'm glad you posted that!
The blog you posted recently has a problem - the images don't show in the moderation queue.
Can you have a quick look at it? I'd have added a message there, but there is no message area for "pending" blogs, unlike articles and tips.

I know, the problem is they aren't actually images!
It's LaTeX which is apparently interpreted as image in my feed...
I'm leaving work now, so I'll have a look at it in an hour or so 
Going to make it LaTeX on here too and then figure out if I can change my blogs feed so I don't have to do this every time...

Now that's a thought of the day! 
My article also got deleted (due to missing images), was afraid it would be gone forever.
Luckily there's a draft still available

Well, does anyone really like dentists? I consider a dentist's chair as a guillotine.

I'm not fond of them, but...she has been known to escape through the window in the Ladies before now. Which doesn't sound too bad, except it's not on the ground floor...

I've no issues with Dentists - its a case of jumping in the chair, letting them get on with it and then leave.
I'm firmly of the opinion this fear of dentists is a type of learnt mass hysteria. I think loads of peeps report hating dentists coz its socially acceptable.
