An old Swedish WWII vet was in his grandson's class, regaling them with stories of how he was a fighter pilot. "Yah, sure," he said, " I'd behnk left and der fokker vould behnk left vid me, den I'd behnk right, and der fokker vas still behine me." The kids started giggling, and the teacher explained," the Fokker was a type of German aircraft, kids." The Swede said, "Yah, but dis fokker vas in a Messerschmidt!"

Dear Technical Support,
18 months ago, I upgraded to Girlfriend 1.0 from DrinkingBuddies 4.2,
which
I had used for years without any trouble. However, there are apparently
conflicts between these two products and the only solution was to try
and
run Girlfriend 1.0 with the sound turned off.
To make matters worse, Girlfriend 1.0 is incompatible with several
other
applications, such as GuysNightOut 3.1, Football 4.5, and Playboy 6.9.
Successive versions of GirlFriend proved no better. I tried a shareware
program, Hooker 2.1, but it had many bugs and left a virus in my
system,
forcing me to shut down completely for several weeks.
Eventually, I tried to run GirlFriend 1.2 and Girlfriend 1.0 at the
same
time, only to discover that when these two systems detected each other
they
caused severe damage to my hardware.
I eventually upgraded to Fiancée 1.0, only to discover that this
product
soon had to be upgraded further to Wife 1.0. While Wife 1.0 tends to
use up
all my available resources, it does come bundled with FreeSexPlus and
Cleanhouse 2006.
Shortly after this upgrade, however, I found that Wife 1.0 could be
very
unstable and costly to run. Any mistakes I made were automatically
stored
in Wife 1.0's memory and could not be deleted, they then resurfaced
months
later when I had forgotten about them.
Wife 1.0 also has an automatic Diary, Explorer and E-mail filter, and
can,
without warning, launch TurboBitch and Multi-Personality. These latter
products have no Help files, and I have to try to guess what the
problem
is.
Additional problems are that Wife 1.0 needs updating regularly,
requiring
ShoeShop Browser for new attachments and Hairstyle Express which needs
to
be reinstalled every other week. Also, when Wife 1.0 attaches itself to
my
Porsche 911 Turbo hard drive, it often crashes.
Wife 1.0 also comes with an irritating pop-up called MotherInLaw, which
can't be turned off.
Recently I've been tempted to install Mistress 2006, but there could be
problems. A friend of mine has alerted me to the fact that if Wife 1.0
detects Mistress 2006, it tends to delete all of your Money before
uninstalling itself.

And, that's why I'll be running SingleGuyForever for the foreseeable future.

Not really a joke, but a rather humorous observation.

"This is the kind of gun they used to put planes on. It wasn't a case of 'Oh, we got this jet fighter, it kinda needs something besides missiles and bombs and shit, let's strap this thing on'. NO. It was a case of a guy making a gun SO awesome, that he just stepped back, and said, "This shit needs to fly'. And everyone else is like, 'You cant make a gun fly!'. And the first guy is all like, 'Fuck you, yes I can. I will strap a plane to this gun.' And everyone's like, 'You mean strap the gun to a plane?' And the first guy is like, 'No, man. I am strapping the plane to the gun. The plane is an accessory.' And then everyone's minds were blown. Like, there was some serious mind blowing going on there. Ears were bleeding. Synapses just went and committed suicide because it was so awesome."

You have not properly browsed the site until you have maxed your browser's alternate tab limit.

I've only had one time where I actually managed to stop a TvTropes wikiwalk. That took a concentrated effort on my part to not click every interesting looking link. Every other time has resulted in me having to just shut my browser down or leave it running for a few days until I gave up and bookmarked all the tabs.

Yeah, it always reaches a point for me where I just have to close the browser and tell myself I'll come back to those other pages someday.

And now I've got about a dozen tabs of tropes open, thanks.
