I get to enjoy an extra laugh.
A website I built/manage for an fraternal organization was criticized by an appointed czar for the main part of the fraternal org. I didn't have all the modern stuff (like on that page) and would not attract the young crowd.
if(design != WordPress)
complain; I continue with a 100% hand-rolled site that's always extremely up-to-date. And if they don't like it . . . bwah-hah-hah!

Unfortunately it fails as a parody as without an immediate cookie confirmation box followed by an immediate request to allow notifications, followed by a modal "subscribe" popup after a 5 seconds delay, then a "you're using an ad blocker" pop-up 10 seconds after that, it's actually still better than 95% of current web sites.

Must concur. Site far too well designed to achieve stated purpose. But it did make me smile

Actually, a lot of truth in that statement. It amazes me how quickly and easily we can get access to any piece of information, but it also feels like the overall IQ of the world has gone down in the last 10 years or so.

You think every generation feels that way at some point?

Pretty much. It gets worse too, but at least you can start to laugh about it more.

Tumor is when you laugh anyway?

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Actually the observation was made earlier this week that the collective IQ of the world has gone down when Hawking died.
Regardless of the exact time lapse, I can't disagree with the general sentiment.

He has my sympathies. There is too much crap, most of the informations aren't organized (that makes them data not information), thousands of repetitions, half baked or cursory stuff designed to click-bait users to the site...
If the original documentation is bad most of the times finding knowledge on the web is an happy accident.

I work in a hospital. Yesterday, I entered an elevator along with five other people. Among them was an elderly lady stooped over her walker who was standing behind me. As the elevator proceeded to the first floor, the old lady let out a moderately loud (and alarmingly bubbly) fart. The other four people tried hard to suppressed laughter, and I turned to the old lady an said, "I apologize if I got anything on ya."
When the elevator stopped, the other four people exited, and I stood aside so the old lady could exit first. On her way past me, she looked at me, winked, and said, "Your mother raised a chivalrous man. Thank you."
You hear that? I'M CHIVALROUS, BITCHES!

Back to that 'getting used to vs. liking' discussion? Do you want to tell us how much Win 10 is like your farts?

I think your observation will get more comments than the rest of your post.
Depends, most of the time they don't bother me. On the other hand, I've had to leave the room if I've eaten something that doesn't agree with me, had heartburn, etc.

I think you might have just negated the act and are again neutral.
