This is more... more of an intense feeling than just annoying, but:

The fact that Piers Anthony is an accoladed writer when his works feature shit like this, as far as I know completely unironically. (warning:big honking pedophilia with a side of rape apologism)

Now let me be clear. I don't think that depicting pedophilia in your books means that they're automatically bad. If the subject matter is treated and depicted with the drama and gravity and seriousness it needs (hell, as long as it's treated as a bad thing in general), as long as it's depicted right, then okay, it's another part of the narrative.

Piers, however...

Trying to finish the main body of my fucking tokamak, and Minecraft is lagging really hard...on my end.  This is my single biggest fucking achievement to date, you asshole!  Stop fucking me over!

My kids have everyone in the house a cold. Including me and my twin 2 year olds. Yes, right now I have 2 sick two year olds that I'm taking care of while having a cold of my own.

Someone decided to go and break stuff at my father-in-laws fox pens. Apparently some "friends of all animals" think that it's better if the animals starve to death...

Why do right wing equalitarian blogs bother calling themselves "pro-equality" or some other bullshti.

Because they don't want to come across as what they really are; systemic issues-denying social conservatives who think these uppity blacks, gays and females are just kicking up too much of a fuss.

I DL-ed Windows 10 yesterday. It lists my printer with a "there's an app available" button. I check the app link. It doesn't support my particular sub-model. I go back to try and print. W10 won't send to my printer, even though it's listed in devices, and continues to send to various MS vaporware "printing" apps, like send to One Note or MS Print to PDF. I go to the printer manufacturer's website and DL the latest drivers (it detects I have W10). I re-set-up everything. W10 says the printer is not connected. While it is physically connected via USB. I go down the W10 list of available devices and remove anything that is not my printer, and for the third time, set my printer as default - the set as default button does nothing. I re-do everything again. I go to device settings, properties, security, etc. and verify that the printer is in fact acknowledged and functioning and connected and has latest drivers according to my laptop. I hard re-boot my laptop and printer. Nada. My question is, did I make a fatal error in using Express Settings when I first installed W10? Do I need to tell Cortana to stop mindlessly whoring an unusable app and while cock blocking my printer?

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

Honestly, I think your fatal error was installing W10.

I've come to the conclusion that this is just Microsoft's way of using the public as Guinea pig beta testers of their Windows 10.  I downloaded it, then had problems with it hanging up like hell, so I just went back to 8.  I usually stay with the OS that came with the computer anyway.  this was my first non-bundled with the computer to begin with upgrade.

I may buy the 'fixed' version of 10 later.  It'd probably be worth it to not have to deal with all the annoying crap.
