I take it back. Googling for a maths equation seen in a teen movie *isn't* the saddest thing I've seen all week.

The new backup software at work has a registered trademark symbol after the name in the title bar, how sad is that?

OK, it's not really like that, the name is a common word, so it helpfully shows that that is the name of the software/company, rather than a description of the window (at the least) and maybe has some good reason I haven't thought of yet too, such as being part of the name.

But I was amused, this Tuesday evening.

You need to find more fun things to do.

Even I have more fun on Tuesdays.

I have fun things *later*. Having to use the company backup system is fairly normal, as I understood it, I'm not doing it for the thrills :)

Don't use the backup system! That would be more thrilling!

I'm not sure what. I could go to the shrubbery for games evening, or I could try to crash a pub crawl a couple of friends have.

I think we need to reindex "thrilling" for a higher baseline :)

And seriously, unchecking a "back this up" check box should take less than five minutes to redraw.

OK, your icons targetted at me are scaring me now.

PLEASE STOP WITH THE SCARING!

I feel like I'm being stalked by not only you but your icons too.

Excuse me. I've never stalked you.

Well apart from the ecs thing and the telescope thing.
