Trust me... the flat look is temporary. We'll eventually return to gradients, rounded corners and drop shadows. You heard it here first.

Yes that has become like status symbol !! Like people mostly blurt things in parties "I am working out" or "I am on diet !" If you want to be called yourself a techie, geek etc. you must must bash MS for every silly thing you can find.
I replied to couple of OP lately. And as I said, its mostly developer/user's ignorance rather than issue.
Thanks,

iOS7 is Metro with Aero. I love the concept but the execution has missed the mark by *this* much. Actually by that much.
iTunes has been overly complicated, the Calendar overly "simplified" so that it's hard to actually see your schedule. Way, way too much bright, white space which means staring at your alarm at 5:30AM trying to turn it off is like having needles drilled into you. Soften it a little, guys? And the catch-me-if-you-can controls on Safari means lots of accidental clicking on ads while trying just to get the hell off a website.

Far as I know it is difficult if not impossible to be a "reviewer" without having a bias.
Certainly that is something that I have seen numerous times about movie reviewers.
Certainly if someone is reviewing colors then is nothing but a subjective determination.
And it certainly seems to me that a significant number of people are more interested in the emotional aspects of their phone versus the technical side. After all why is there a market for different color cases and things to stick on the phone. Given that a subjective review is to be expected.

...you may spy a smartly dressed Hungarian lady having hysterics.
Mrs Wife, for it is she, has just been photographed by a hoard of Japanese tourists; or at least she believes they are Japanese. She was visiting the Cabinet Office [AKA The "Who's My Boss?" Department] and there was something or other going on in the reception as she left. So she was taken out through the staff exit onto Downing Street. It was there, as she walked happily across the road to the security barriers that said hoard started snapping away.
Mrs Wife found the whole thing very amusing and called to tell me. Still laughing.

Is SHE the mole?
We will have to get MI6 to investigate.

I was once mistaken for the French Ambassador to Jordan, during my first day of work at the university there.
Ambassador? I can understand that. Just. But French, never. I don't even own a white flag.

its your own fault for looking shifty and untrustworthy

You can always tell the French. They won't listen, but you can tell them.

When I was a teen my friend's father too my friend and I to London and we visited Downing Street.
Father walks up to copper and says "My name's Harold, can I come in?" (bonus points to anyone who can work out the approximate year!)
The policeman didn't move more than a twitch of his lips - this was the first time I had heard an Adult say "F*** Off"

Fortunately there is a solution.
If we all go out and panic buy now before the Christmas rush we should all be ok.

Everyone knows that the only time to buy chocolate is the week after the Christmas hols and the week after Easter.
In our house, the nippers went so far as to demand that we postpone Easter by a week, each year, so that they could get three times as many choccy eggs.

We did a similar thing for several years. Between my sister working at a bed-and-breakfast, and two brothers in the military, getting the family together for Christmas and New Year was a huge challenge. Our solution was to switch the festivities to Twelfth Night, Jan. 5. That worked much better with everyone's schedule, with the added bonus that we could shop for presents at all the after-Christmas sales.
