It was destined to happen…my vent…my last stand against everything about web development that makes me want to break things. Oh, you’ve got to be kidding me…my words this very moment “oh, you son of a bitch…you fucking son of a bitch!” Well, just as I was about to crash IE again so i could get a screen capture of it fucking up, that POS worked. grrrr I finally just walked away from my computer for the last 20 min because I’d rebooted and done everything but IE kept repeatedly dying every time i tried to debug my .net project.

Oh but this is appropriate with what i was gonna complain about. Microsoft products are fickle bitches. Yeah, Mr. I Wipe My Ass With .NET, you heard me. Fickle bitch. Let me explain. When I left my project last night, it was good to go, but this morning, without reason, when i viewed my site, it was showing up completely blank. No reason whatsoever…I’d changed nothing and I verified the DB hadn’t died…so i Google and Google…no dice. Well, then, every time I tried to debug my project to step through the action, IE decided it couldn’t read the memory and fucking died…except of course right now when I’m about to bash it. Typical.

NowIi had my issues with php and having to use putty to talk to UNIX, but at least if it did something weird, it did it consistently.

haha magical…IE just crashed when I tried it again. Now see graphic…I just can’t make this stuff up, people.

And how do politics come in to this? Developers leach on to a technology and hold on with both hands, just like Republicans to a lost cause. no matter what incriminating evidence is presented to them, they stick with their technology choice. It pisses me off.

And what finally broke me after this morning of accomplishing absolutely nothing but debugging a random ass error was getting notice that I have to change my laptop’s computer name and description when I go to work. It’s like having a car named The Beast but once it’s in the work parking lot, it’s “Mindy Car #102-444.” It’s just not cool and the best part is my new fantastic login: MccutcMM. Jeez, even Purdue gave me a better one. this one looks like a small city.

I mean, seriously, I’m all about standards but there just reaches a point where things can be taken too far and this is that point. These little things just irritate the hell out of me.

And to top this entire day off, I need a damn haircut. Everything is more annoying when your hair feels like a damn carpet draped over your head.

Ok, i’m done. For now…

20 min later…I just watched a guy mowing the yard across the street get seriously tangled in a small tree. I can be happy now. :)
