I live in India, which is covered in the list.
But, nothing special here. Just another day. Did not even notice this till a colleague (male) of mine pointed out.

The teacher asks the kids in her 3rd grade class: "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
Little Kevin says: "I wanna start out as a Marine Pilot, then be a billionaire, go to the most expensive clubs, find me the finest hooker, give her a Ferrari worth over a million bucks, an apartment in Copacabana, a mansion in Paris, a jet to travel throughout Europe, an Infinite Visa Card, and all the while banging her like a loose screen door in a hurricane."
The teacher, shocked, and not knowing what to do with this horrible response from little Kevin, decides not to acknowledge what he said and simply try to continue with the lesson . . . .
"And how about you, Sarah?"
"I wanna be Kevin's hooker!"

But he forgot the part where at night in the dark shadows he wants to be the Hero Gotham needs and not the one Gotham wants. Sarah can be his accomplish at night and in his bed I guess

I'm guessing that you meant to say "Accomplice" which has an entirely different and unrelated meaning.
Will Rogers never met me.
|

|

Well, thinking about it, it should rather be partner, as Accomplice is only related to crime

It still fits, since it's a crime that she's with Kevin instead of me.

Hi Roger, this could be great dialogue for a young Spicoli in the upcoming movie sequel "Fast Times at Ridgemont Pre-School" ! [^]. That movie marked the debut of two of the worst contemporary American actors, Sean Penn, and Nicolas Cage, and one of the best, Forest Whitaker.

I've used a ton: Google Drive, DropBox, OneDrive, iCloud...and none of them really take my fancy. So close yet often note close enough (or sometimes not even vaguely close).
I'm actually starting to lean towards OneDrive (though the removal of placeholders in Windows 10 seems dumb*) but I wanted to tap the collective hive to see what you're using and the pros / cons from your point of view.
I like:
- syncing only the files and folders I need (OneDrive with placeholders)
- granular security using groups or roles. (OneDrive, Google - though Google routinely messes things up)
- access on any device (all of them)
- The ability to organise in folders. Google sort of allows this, but it's not native: it's an add-on to their tag based system since they want people to search instead of browse. DropBox does this well, OneDrive doesn't provide a tree view when accessing via a browser. Dumb omission!
- the ability to move my stuff from one service to another. GoogleDocs are a plague. They do allow batch exporting, but you'll be there all day if you have a lot of files since it's limited in size/number.
I dislike:
- all-or-nothing approaches.
- lost files. Google is a bandit for allowing users to (almnost by default) create files that admins will never know about unless they dig deep.
- services that insist on converting your files to other formats.
* Best headline so far: "Windows 10 testers get syncing feeling over OneDrive"

I have used DropBox and Google Drive. I prefer Google Drive. It may be because it makes my life easier since I also use Android devices.
BTW, Android 5.0 is neat (this observation is based on 10 minutes of usage. More to come in some time).

Post a write up please!

I should take my words back. They have moved to material UI which looks very different. I am not really able to navigate as quickly as I used to. UI modifications are way more than I expected.
May be by evening I could write a post.
