You can sure say that again. We've learnt through Bitter experience here in Australia that nothing good ever comes from VB.

They had such promising futures until they crossed paths with VB. Gin is indeed a far better option.

Sure is. Especially when the media got a hold of the second one, not realizing it was satirical - taking the mickey out of people that think that way. Many thought those were his actual views - he got quite some unwanted attention, leading up to him posting a link to the story behind the clip on the page.
They're horribly offensive things to say if people think he's actually serious though.
It's all your fault!  Speaking of VB and gin in the one sentence.
I must admit to being more than a little interested to see MMs reaction.

You bast@rd - my ribs are killing me and I cant breathe. +100
Sounds a little younger than I'd expect for MM, though he's got a son, doesn't he?
VB's bad enough, but as any aussie knows, Bundy gets ya spastic. It seems to have even stronger bogan-extraction qualities. I'd pay actual money to see MM do a take-off of this video.

I am so used to zero based numbering that I have caught myself counting things, outside of collections e.g. items in a list on a piece of paper, starting at zero(for pachyderms sake! ).

Arrays in BASIC have always been zero-based.

0. Those who experience life with a deeply ingrained sense that they are "normal," and, thus, are entitled to judge the sanity of others.
"What Turing gave us for the first time (and without Turing you just couldn't do any of this) is he gave us a way of thinking about and taking seriously and thinking in a disciplined way about phenomena that have, as I like to say, trillions of moving parts.
Until the late 20th century, nobody knew how to take seriously a machine with a trillion moving parts. It's just mind-boggling." Daniel C. Dennett

I get your frustrated but really? this is your reason Microsoft sucks? not the failed Win 8 (Run at home and like), not the failed WinPhone (Have in my pocket and like) but the lack of listing the Framework version bundled with the OS in Add/Remove programs?
You need to get your priorities in order my man.
Don't comment your code - it was hard to write, it should be hard to read!

Why? It's another example of MS institutional stupidity. Why not treat one specific thing differently because it was installed with the OS? And not everything installed with it? Simple: multiple teams which don't talk to each other. And that's why Win8 is so bad, and Windows phone is a bit cr@p compared to the competition, and VS2012 shouts at you, and why the stupid ribbon exists at all, and...
Because no one person is making any decisions. So any idea that seems cool gets into production even if the market testing says it's garbage.
Don't get me wrong, I use MS software and when I'm not swearing at it I like it. But I also use an Android tablet - and I can see which is developed with a clear aim in mind, and it doesn't say "Microsoft" on boot up...

You mean like have a 3.5 and 4.0 Client Version and full version so many times you have to explain to users why they downloaded the wrong one?

Not only do i hear ya Griff, i feel your pain however; on the list of things MS should fix i don't think this could possibly get any lower so to call this why MS Sucks doesn't seem right.
