Does Windows 10 come with Office pre-installed, or am I mistaken?
I really am a complete amateur.

Dear Hogi, I am currently attempting to stick to my low-carb diet 😁
I take a few vitamins here and there, but otherwise, everything is fine. 😁

On a different note, I experienced the exact same computer meltdown today that you did. Your machine is still holding up quite well; I’ve actually taken to calling mine Jane. 😁
Don't let it get to you, Jane. She hasn't completely given up on me yet—she might limp along for a little while longer before finally breathing her last.
I was even desperate enough to reach out to Quark for help. 😁

The situation is remarkably similar; I suppose I shall just have to borrow some ideas from your thread.
My hardware has officially bit the dust, and Jane is well past her prime.

Do you see now, Zac, why they saw fit to alter the title even though it sits on an uninhabited MK? You tinker with things, and then when some fool takes you for a ride, you act surprised. 😁

Because, let's be clear, hate speech isn't something anyone should be spreading, even in jest. However, if you had simply stated that you hold a grudge against South Koreans...
Perhaps that would have flown?

It has been nearly two years now, and I am asking you all to please, for God's sake, remove Judy's section from the Off Topic area.
There were certainly far worse players active back then who didn't receive such treatment.
The man has mellowed out significantly—which, I must admit, carries its own sort of charm—and he is quite compelling when he writes; if one can overlook that old incident, reading his posts is actually a pleasure.
He is literate, eloquent, and possesses a unique perspective.
I beg of you.
The Off Topic PDF is meant to be a space for freer expression anyway.

No one even realizes that my intention was to start this thread, but my heart would be at ease if you would simply set him free. Truly, enough time has passed.

There.

I actually quite enjoy swearing, and nothing satisfies me more than when someone on a forum accuses me of using it to compensate for a meager vocabulary... 🤣
And here I am, a writer, a poet, and a translator... 😵

While I don't feel the need to constantly force sexual allusions into everything, when I do, I do it with style. Constantly twisting every single topic toward sex is just exhausting and dull.

For me, honestly, it is far more vulgar to insert an absolutely unnecessary hyphen into a sentence than it is to drop an F-bomb or a dirty word. 🤷

You are one of the rare individuals who swears and spits on this forum with such fine structure that I have always tolerated you, though you have certainly crossed the line into the waters of pure primitivism more than once.

In any case, I distinguish people like bluecyclist64 from those who are simply revolting, mindless, and incapable of coherent thought.

There is also a distinction between swearing in general and swearing at someone. I might let out a string of curses occasionally, but I generally try to avoid being sacrilegious; it's usually just a muttered "damn it all" when things go wrong, or perhaps a well-placed profanity that simply slipped out...

But I don't direct it at people, rather at the situation itself. And I don't do it in public, considering I view this entire forum as a public space, which is why I keep my language to a minimum here.

There are moments when a sudden bout of verbal diarrhea takes hold, leaving me rambling about my own origins—specifically those early days when I first "discovered" Tudum, mistakenly believing he was discussing vacuum cleaners when he was actually waxing poetic about some "rose-colored sandwich." It’s truly touching, isn't it?
Those piercing, icy blue eyes of his. I found myself wanting to offer up a prayer just to be in his presence while I drifted through the digital void, wasting precious hours on mindless nonsense.
He even graced me with that little poem about the folding lady parts the other day. 😁

Live a long and prosperous life, and perhaps one day we'll actually grab a drink together in person.

Just send a private message asking someone to ban you; it’s handled in an instant.
Tudume, if this is causing you genuine distress, then just leave. Go. I've walked away a hundred times myself. Hug your dog and find some love.
Go for a walk in the grass, look up at the stars.
We will likely cross paths again here—assuming I can still make sense of you. Or, more simply, just forget this thread exists and come bother me with the usual nonsense over on MK.
I appreciate you listening.
