- Rickrolling is funny when its unexpected. If every freakin' link you send me is a link to youtube
I'm going to stop thinking its funnyI stopped thinking it was funny after the second time you did it. - "It doesn't work" is not a valid request for help.
- Having the solution in front of you, and then rebuilding it is much easier then building something from scratch. When you see a new feature or change in your favourite software, try not to look at the result and think to yourself "that was easy". Definitely don't contact the author of said change and tell him it was easy. That's just "bad form"©.
- Would somebody from Rogers please come clean and admit that the real reason they want me to switch to e-billing has absolutely nothing to do with the environment? Over the years I've requested (in writing) they stop sending me so much crap many times. How many companies tell us to "consume more because its good for the environment"? Blah.
- In the vein of real environmentally conscious companies, let me just say that I've been thrilled with Bullfrog Power since the first day I contacted them. If you're in Ontario or Alberta, switch now - you'll be glad you did.
- Telling someone who's trying to help you with something that they are "selfish" because they won't log into your server and do your work for you is dumb.
- Webhosts who tell their customers that they've been "hacked" but offer no explanation, evidence, or logs are irresponsible bordering on criminal. Get yourself a real webhost if you've heard this before.

I feel better now... ;)

I recently had a client who wanted to go through invoices line by line and have me explain why it took the amount of time that it did. Between that and a bunch of related issues they were the first & only client I’ve ever had to fire.
