Yes Mitch, he really is a giant waste of space. He turned the debate into a question time session, and directed all of his vomit towards Bob Brown, who just looked embarrassed. It was really awkward!
That is why he is in the Liberal Party. They enjoy smarmy, facetious, inappropriate people on their side.

Wow,
Tony Abbott is a fuccckkkiing moron. What a childish argument. Does he think that people are just going to be lined up and slaughtered mindlessly.

Fucking idiot…who voted this fucking moron in…fucking morons…

Why do we give these people seemingly intelligent brains so that they can run thier fucccckkking opinions all over the fence sitters or weaker minds…

what adele is saying is true, but thats probably because they’re in the wrong job. a programmer shouldnt be doing tech support, and a tech support person shouldnt be doing programming. What im getting at is that a tech support person requires people skills, programmers also require people skills…but only enough to talk to other programmers (obviously the more the better but…), not enough to be able to ask a question without offending someones intelligence.

fair?

actually no…there should be a test when you sign up for a computer related position.

Questions
1. Are you religious?

2. Are you 100kg over weight?
_______________________
3. Is your highest level of qualification based on WOW?
_______________________
4. Do you like VB?
_______________________

based on that you can probably tell if someone is a programmer or a tech support person, this is a great method of restructuring companies.

Hey Mr generalisation, we are not all fucktards, simple as that. I may not be a techno genius, but I still have a functioning, semi-intelligent brain. I sometimes need help with computer stuff, and hopefully the person that helps me won’t laugh and poke fun and give me one of these forms. Maybe they will. If they do, I may be forced to become violent.
I kind of went off track with all of this anyway. The point I was attempting to make (very poorly) is that some programmers and other computer people have total disdain for the user and treat them accordingly when they create their product. Not cool.

Hey, _you_ don’t have to deal with these alleged “not-fucktards” in a quasi-professional manner when their shit is broken. It’s not even my job, but still people expect you to do it. Apparently to some people “IT” is “IT” no matter what. Would you ask a plumber to plaster your walls because “house technology” is “house technology”? Not-fucktards my arse.

C’mon, don’t keep us poor soles without access to IE8 waiting – what happens?

Safari shows two ‘>’ symbols, which seems about right. Tell me it crashes IE!

That Visual Studio bug has irked me like a bad pennywhistle. Couple that with a freaky-deaky regex syntax,…

I ended up installing Cygwin and using grep instead. I’m happier for that.
