I hate X.
I hate X resources.
I hate X programmers who don't document their resources.

I hate getting a new beta of a very bitchin' graphical
newsreader, to find that the author improved the way he 
implemented panes of text, which means that the resource
I used to use to set the text font no longer works.  I
then hate spending half an hour with strings and grep to
make some kind of guess about WHAT that new resource name
might be, making 6 guesses, reinvoking the window manager
6 times, and finding that all 6 were wrong.

I'm going to have to send mail to the author to ask.
I hate that most of all.

There is nothing wrong with being a homosexual.  Being a homophobe is an
offensive thing, but it is curable through education.  On the other hand,
using a Vax machine is a terrible sin that must be atoned for...

I call your attention to the work of Mr. Dorsey here. All of his words are
easily found in commonly available dictionaries. His grammar is flawless,
His concepts are clearly and articulately expressed.

Notice the subtle humor, and the avoidance of unwarranted sexual innuendo.
Note especially the craftsmanlike verbosity which avoids the use of the
more direct but hackneyed phrase, "and that's why I had to kill them all".

Mm-hmm.

The symptoms, though, are uncharacteristically benign.  I find
that I no longer need much sleep; and my cognitive processes
appear to have increased in speed and resolution by over an
order of magnitude.  Indeed, the impartial observer might
consider the virus' effects entirely positive, and might even
suggest a course of unrestricted public access to infective
sources, as a means of improving the general acumen.

But I have my prejudices; and some things continue to disturb
me.  I suppose, as time passes, I shall adjust, and no longer
find such symptoms bothersome.  Perhaps I shall even cease to
notice them.  The above-mentioned difficulty with unwanted
processing investment in the logical idiosyncrasies of a common
game, for example, can easily be accepted in the light of the
general increase in computational availability.

But there's this... _noise_.  This _clicking_ noise.  When I
move my head.  And last night a black stone fell out of my
ear.  

Ignore it, he says, don't worry - when the white ones start
coming out, we'll have to plug the tympani, but take plenty of
fluids, so on, so forth, and you'll be fine.  

He is very reassuring.  He has a good bedside manner.  But for
some reason I am beginning to feel uncomfortable with his
techniques.

We are remodeling the basement, and one of my responsibilities is the 
plumbing.  Copper-pipe plumbing is fun and easy:  measure, cut, and clean
the ends of the pipe, slather the ends with goo ("paste flux"), fit them
into the little copper fittings, and (the best part) solder them together
with a propane torch.  This is called "sweating the pipes," and it is
truly enjoyable for those with pyromaniacal tendencies.

I get the pipes and the basic fittings (elbows, or "90's," "45's", and
"180's," which are used to join pieces in a straight line) at the cheap
hardware store, but for the really esoteric pieces, I go to McGuckin's.
McGuckin Hardware is a Boulder landmark, an enormous hardware-cum-miscellany
store, occasionally referred to as Big Fuckin' Hardware, because it is.
Green-shirted employees roam the cavernous aisles, directing lost and 
bewildered customers to Aisle 14, or Aisle 2, or wherever they need to go.
Their slogan:  "If we don't have it, you don't need it." 

One side of an aisle is devoted to brass and copper pipe fittings.
The normal ones are there in quantity, in a variety of sizes;  but then
there's the cabinet on the end, its drawers labeled with tantalizingly
bizarre and vaguely erotic names:

Inverted reducing sweat to male screw.  Street 90 to female screw.  
180 sweat to female screw.  Male to female 90 coupling.  Flange sweat
fitting.  Reducing sweat to street 45.

One drawer is labeled, "Weird pipe fittings."  I don't think I want to 
know what's in it.
