All running operating systems made by fat people, monitors all doing nothing when you type "start".
Seriously I'm a Linux nerd and I remember the first time I saw this strip I was like "what no, Word is terrible!" yet I have no problems with, for instance, enjoying the antics of a squirrel with a cocaine problem.

Truth. I'll admit, I had that impulse. Instead, recognizing my bias, I abstained from rating it entirely. But the cognitive dissonance lingers.

The panels with no action/word balloons are like little breaks for applause. I almost felt compelled to clap.

Achewood is a place where everything is so awkward it is beautiful. Somehow Onstad achieves timing with something that is read. Prose and poetry can barely aspire to achieve timing - comic form seems to pull it off pretty well. Three panels where almost nothing happens, yet they mean so much.

Between LaTeX, LilyPond, Gamefaqs, and just about any worthwhile coding you can do, nothing beats Notepad. But I still have Microsoft Word on my computer as a status symbol.

Wordpad is better if you're going to write something for school that is not fancy, or if you need to open something larger than a meg.

Euro-way? Because there are so many countries in Europe who speak English.
Wait a minute, the English! That's who spell grey with an e. Those silly English, whose language is called ENGLISH. I wonder where they get the notion they can choose how to spell words.

And did those feet in ancient time,
Walk upon England%u2019s mountains green
And was the holy Lamb of God,
On England%u2019s pleasant pastures seen
And did the Countenance Divine,
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here,
Among these dark Satanic Mills?
---C. Hubert H. Parry (from William Blake), "Jerusalem"

Bring me my bow of burning gold
Bring me my arrows of desire
Bring me my spears o'clouds unfold
Bring me my chariot of fire
I will not cease from mental fight
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
'Til we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land
(for the sake of completitude)

Actually OpenOffice is pretty cute. It's small, opens quickly, does good file recovery, and doesn't bloat up your system. The way it manages pictures in a document is balls, but otherwise, it is highly preferable.

Actually, I quite like the latest one. It's redesigned from the top down. I'm considering switching for intercompatibility with the school computers.

In case anyone cares, I did switch, and it's pretty great. The new file extension is bullshit, but it's easy to work around.

I can only imagine that all these OpenOffice haters have never had to compose an essay (on a computer); Writer is essentially the same as Word, only not completely shit.
OpenOffice cocks up images, you say? Strange, I've found this area to be Writer's greatest improvement over Word (Writer assumes the user wants to "anchor" images to a page, paragraph, etc., but this can be corrected. I've often struggled for hours to position images within a Word doc, frustatedly ctrl-z'ing out of somehow losing the image between pages, to no avail. The only way to have any degree of control over the position of images in Word seems to be to dump them into separate text boxes: relocating the image itself seems to tell word "please fuck this image into oblivion, and rape all existing text formatting while you're at it".
