I’m glad you’re here to tell us these things!

This seemingly simple thing enrages me on a daily basis.

How difficult can it fucking be to write some damn code to omit “the” from sorting if it is the first word of a title? JFC

I used to be a huge Stephen King junkie, read every novel within a few weeks of each release (started young by reading Salem’s Lot way too young). Then he started getting really repetitive in the mid-90s.

The most unpleasant thing about that novel was that fixing things made it infinitely worse.

Seriously- wtf is wrong with these people? That one person sounds especially horrible.

Also - don’t go to any more reunions. I’ve managed to avoid 40 years of that shit and I like to believe that I’m happier for it!
