Dear So-and-So, It's Not Me, It's You

[cjsmith]

Dear right knee,

WTF? You were fine after a seven mile hike but sitting in an office for a day did you in? You little whiner. What is wrong with you THIS time? Never mind, I don't EVEN want to know. You better behave during flight training this weekend, that's all I have to say.

Annoyedly,
Me

Dear Netscape 4.7,

Putting news and ads up in my mail client every time I start it was bad enough. But popping up a new window for your ads is downright rude. Taking over a window I already had open and putting crap in it is ten times worse! Did it ever occur to you that I was DOING something in that window? People actually USE you, you know. If you would let them.

Dear employer,

Working for you is like being eaten to death slowly by a small number of ants.

Candidly,
A Non-Loyal Employee

Dear clock,

Could you pick up the pace a little? I sure could use some dinner.

Hungrily,
CJ

Dear computer,

I swear, you crash one more time and I'm gonna wipe the floor with your hard drive.

Nastily,
Your Human

Dear economy,

This is long enough. You've had your sulk. Get over it.

Unsympathetically,
A Consumer

We've downloaded the opera demo -- gotta say, I love the idea, but the software gives me probs here and there. Maybe if I'd spring for the full version they'd stop??

Uh oh, what's it do? They may be my last hope :-(

I'd hate to dash your last hope!! :) Let's see -- I *hate* the ad banner (which I know would go away if I paid for it) -- some of their ads are troubling, frankly. The graphics load *slowly* on some sites, though in general its a fast browser. I can't play neopets on opera, it's too slow. It screws up the font of my yahoo mail, making everything too big to read without scrolling the screen back and forth. And if you DARE open up opera and ms explorer at the same time, BOTH freak out. :)

Other than that, I like it! But I do find myself using MS IE again, as 90% of what I do online is either neopets or reading my mail on yahoo, and it doesn't work well for either of them...
