i hate how hard it is to use modern software on tabby, my X61t thinkpad, just because modern ui is so damn big and bulky taking up unreasonable amount of space it doesn't need to on a 1024x768 screen. i have to jump through so many hoops...

Why did we all let Google do our email? Now that I think about it, that was a weird thing we all agreed on.

i like how the nickelodeon all-star brawl announcement came and went and nobody noticed it's being published by the same people who published big rigs over the road racing
