      I was once fooled by Apple's marketing campaign. Talk about style over content!

      I use Linux Mint, and it's ok generally, but I still find it annoying that I have to resort to using a command line to do stuff that should be in the GUI from the start.

      When it rains it's too wet to fix it, when it's dry it's as good as any man's roof.

      It's so insubstantial, it swerves on the curves.

      The noise of the upholstery batters the nerves.

      If you were a passenger day after day

      You'd pay to have somebody blow you away.

      As I travel these tracks I cannot forgive

      How I lose by degrees the incentive to live

      Knowing that vengeance will never be mine

      That's what hurts on the misery line...

      The only times I've been made redundant is when I didn't want to go. Those times where I applied for it I never got it!
