If you are a male, don't expect anything to come into your Orkut scrapbook - thank god for small mercies.
And while I am in the rant mode - guys, here is a message from sanity department. Please take time to get to know the Real World. It is better to know girls in the Real World as opposed to trying to pick frnds in the Orkut forums. There are people I know who masquerade as girls on the forums - to serve as good material for jokes to pass time in the boring meetings.
The names have been changed to protect the fucking idiots. Am I the only one left in the world who is pedantic about spellings :-/
Why do people keep asking, "What would Jesus do?" How the hell
should I know? I died for you, damnit! Haven't I done enough for
you already? Pop gave you free will for a reason; make your own
decisions!

I am quite sure this guy is talking about emacs and vi war
Similarly, I have heard people argue against a tool that they ignore
based on the fact that it can do too much. Too much functionality in
a tools is a problem only if unneeded or unwanted functionality
somehow makes it harder to use the needed and wanted parts. I have
heard people argue about the amount of memory a particular tool
requires, whereas the additional memory required might represent a
cost equivalent to a few hours of work at most. A favorite idea is to
label a particular tool with a name suggesting what it ought to be
doing, and then arguing that it is doing more than that. For
instance, a text editor that is capable of automatic indentation
would be accused of being a ``kitchen-sink'' tool because after all
it does much more than allowing the user to just edit text.
< awormus> the funniest thing just happened
< awormus> we're having guests and my wife asked me what I'm going to wear
< awormus> so I said I was going to do the "Steve Jobs" thing
< awormus> she looked a bit puzzled and then said "You mean like ... "
and started jumping around the room
< awormus> and I said "No, that's Steve Balmer"
And a witty error message does not look funny if it happens 5 times in 5 minutes.
and while I am in a ranting mood, what is the big idea in showing birthdays that have already elapsed
