Oh my fellow , do NOT use to write your job app cover letters. I mean, we all know cover letters suck, but a truly sucky solution to a sucky problem does not actually solve the problem.

On the other hand, you are making my first pass filtering task easier.

Dear website "developers" (and I use the term in a very loose sense):

No-one ever wants to sign up to your shitty newsletter. Ever. So take your Annoy-o-Soft popup overlay and store it in a place where you'll need a doctor with a strong stomach and a flashlight to get it back.

It was 42C here in today, still about 33C while I was having dinner, and I still put extra-hot sauce on my food.

Assume you washed it down with a nice cup of steaming hot tea, as per the "mad dogs and Englishmen" rule book 😀

@MondayOnions Is there any other way? :)

My Significant Other went through my browsing history, and boy she was not happy. She actually smashed my laptop, and so now I've lost my wifey connection.
