(web) A fox never forgets

without comments

Since when did ‘do you want Firefox to remember this password?’ become a rhetorical question?

What I’m saying is it doesn’t remember passwords.

(AOL IM) AOL System Msg is my buddy

with 4 comments

EVERY time I log into AOL I get pinged with a new message “Oh who could it be?” I think – is it my friend Paul from New York, perhaps it’s one of the guys from work – probably telling me to get to bed *chuckle* – my excitement soon turns to disgust as it dawns on me it’s my ol’ friend ‘AOL System Message’ gleefully notifying me of how I am logged in in 2 places and would I like to close the other session. I. DON’T. CARE. Please stop telling me about this. There may be some way of turning off this pointless notification in the AOL client but I won’t let any of their bastard software near my machine and neither iChat or Pidgin has a way to shut off this noise.

(illustrator) Recent items my tits

without comments

Why have I been looking at the same 8 ‘recent items’ for the last 3 weeks? Why is that – why would I want that?
