Crap stuff


Windows poster altered to read 'suddenly everything sucks'

This is my page to sound off about things which are badly designed, made, thought out, implemented... just generally crap. Things which are bad when they need not be bad, but nevertheless are bad because those responsible for their existence are ignorant, thoughtless, greedy, stupid, all of these or all of these and more besides.

Despite the heading photo, there isn't anything here ranting about that sorry excuse for an operating system churned out by those twats in Redmond. Partly because its crapness does not impinge on me personally, because I use Linux (the Debian distro), which is definitely NOT crap, and partly because plenty of other people have so ranted already, see here.

Please note that, since these pages contain rantings about things that cause anger in me, words like "fuck" are used. If this offends you please do not read them :-) And in particular do not read this page, which details various expressions and concepts which have perhaps not achieved the same widespread currency beyond the shores of the UK as the English language has, but are nevertheless used in these pages, necessitating an explanation for the benefit of those who are not familiar with the vernacular of this sceptred isle. And if you are of the opinion that the use of expurgatory language is an indication of a deficient vocabulary, then may I invite you to engage in retrograde copulation. :-)

Please note, too, that these are rants. They are not necessarily intended to be paragons of logical argument; though some of them might be, some of them might not. They are intended to get things off my chest, and hopefully entertain and possibly educate one or two people at the same time.

And you never know, some day some product designer might read them and think "Hang on, he's right you know..."
