SS: Stupid Microsoft

Micro$haft is so damn obnoxious it's not even funny. today's offender: M$ Word and the lack of a "flush right" command.

now tell me, mr. bill: would have it really been too much trouble to program in a keyboard command that would flush text to the right? bloody hell -- word perfect has been doing it since the mid-80s or so. do you not have enough money to afford the paycheck for a coder to spend a couple weeks designing this?

instead, your website helpfully informs me that i can make a two-column table to emulate this look, or set some tab stops or something. well guess what? i can stretch my anus with my hands g-atse style, but you don't see me doing that, now do you, you stupid dumb **** who uses your monopoly power to force ****ty software on the world? that's because it's inconvenient and uncomfortable, much like using your worthless "office suite"

I hereby declare this to be the 'rant of the week'

Way to go, Whitak! You tell 'em!
