The Weak End of the Weekend

Friday after work I Metroed to Foggy Bottom and walked to the Kennedy Center to meet Tritelli, erstwhile drinking buddy and friend from way back in Delaware, for an NSO concert of Mozart and Bruckner. The Mozart piano concerto #27 is, as well as I can gather from the mems of mistery, the very first Mozart I ever sat down and listened to as a child( never mind. nothing to see here. )

O Microsoft, thou art a den of cheap extruded-plastic vipers.

Dear Microsoft:

After version after version after version of Office, why in the blistering FUCK can't you program your 'case' applet to overlook insignificant words? Why does your so-called 'title case' produce 'A Day In The Life Of A Useless Coder'?

Also re Office: If I have two Word documents open and hit ALT-F4 while looking at one, the current document closes but Word stays open because another document is open. If I have two Excel documents open and hit ALT-F4 while looking at one, Excel quits. What's up with that?

Do YOU have a pet peeve that has driven you crazy for years about Microsoft Office, or Windows, or other Microsoft product? Do tell!
