Stay in the car and work on your code or surf fb / cp. Waaaay safer.
Also, if she looks good to you, just say "Lookin good there Mama" - never get too specific or you may find yourself in a spot you don't want to be in.

Clothing, food, presents are all solo efforts by the wife. What I hate is furniture shopping, I have to be there to apply some sort of limits however that seems to be failing recently when I flatly said no to a lamp - we left with 2 of them.

I once read that most men experience MORE stress when shopping with the missus than when they have an impossible deadline coming up and managers are breathing down their neck...

Should you tape chocolate bars to your arm so you always have a couple of Twix up your sleeve?

I recently walked into the Clark Bar and ordered a drink but the waitress caught me snickering and told me to go to the Mars bar if I wasn't going to behave. But I got my drink and now Almond Joy.

Keep that hammer...its also handy for fixing your Swift applications. Afterwards, the machine won't run to test it, but its easiest to assume the application is fixed

Often times, that's the case. Look at IE. Because it was/is automatically bundled with the OS, folks (at the time) had no reason to shop around for anything else.

So true.
Which is also probably proof of how bad IE was because users were finally forced into shopping around.
And when they did, they never went back.

I used IE for many years with nary an issue. I only recently switched to using Chrome because a web site that I frequent often did not work with IE. Now I suppose I could say the same for Chrome. while I use it exclusively at work, I can't use it at home. I've been told it may have to do with DNS hijacking, but I've not fully researched that.
For outlier cases, IE may not have been the tool for some folks. Not because it was so bad, necessarily, but more than likely they needed it to do one very specific thing that it either did not do or just didn't do as well as another. Put 100 people in a room with IE, and you'll have 100 people tell you they hate IE, maybe because it does not do something they need, or maybe peer pressure. People judge on the 1 thing software can't do rather than the 99 things it can do.
YMMV.

I agree with that 100%. It's not right. It is also a factor that seems to be making software a commodity.
There are billions of apps.
This one doesn't work.
Download another.
It doesn't work either.
Download another.

Use the best tool for the job. I use both IE (and its successor, Edge) and Chrome to debug Web code. When the issue at hand is cascading style sheets, I lean towards Edge, but when it's single-stepping JavaScript code, I lean towards Chrome.

"Easy to install" was the "main reason", which could be a deciding factor for a technology. I tried to install iOS on an android phone and finally gave up.
