Folk har den mærkelige opfattelse, at de taler sandhed, blot fordi de ikke lyver

K. K. Steincke

Ingenting er så ærgerligt, som når man diskuterer med en person og med gode argumenter gør sig umage for at overbevise ham og så pludselig opdager, at det ikke er hans forstand man har med at gøre, men hans vilje. Han vil ikke forstå

Schopenhauer

En yndet form for polemik

består i det probate trick,

at dutte folk en mening på,

hvis vanvid alle kan forstå

Piet Hein

Man finder let et rim på struds

hvis man er lidt poetisk

det kan med sol og bølgebrus

vel klares rent fonetisk.

På andre svære rim man godt

kan bruge flere timer,

for på kartofler er det blot

to graders frost, der rimer

S. Thøgersen

Jeg har ikke fundet grundlag for kritik

Jeg mener at man burde gøre....

Jeg finder det ikke tilfredsstillende

Jeg står uforstående overfor handlemåden

Jeg finder det beklageligt

Jeg finder det kritisabelt

Jeg finder det uheldigt

Jeg finder det meget beklageligt

Jeg finder det meget kritisabelt

Jeg findet det meget uheldigt

Jeg finder det helt uacceptabelt

Jeg finder det helt utilstedeligt

If Operating Systems Ran The Airlines

UNIX Airways

Everyone brings one piece of the plane along when

they cometo the airport. They all go out on the runway and put the

plane together piece by piece, arguing non-stop about what

kind of plane they are supposed to be building.

Air DOS

Everybody pushes the airplane until it glides, then they jump

on and let the plane coast until it hits the ground again.

Then they push again, jump on again, and so on...

Mac Airlines

All the stewards, captains, baggage handlers, and ticket agents look and act exactly the same. Every time you ask questions about details, you are gently but firmly told that you

don't need to know, don't want to know, and everything will be done for you

without your ever having to know, so just shut up.

windows Air

The terminal is pretty and colorful, with friendly stewards,

easy baggage check and boarding, and a smooth take-off. After

about 10 minutes in the air, the plane explodes with no warning whatsoever.

Windows NT Air

Just like Windows Air, but costs more, uses much bigger planes,

and takes out all the other aircraft within a 40-mile radius

when it explodes.

Linux Air

Disgruntled employees of all the other OS airlines decide to start their own airline. They build the planes,

ticket counters, and pave the runways themselves. They charge a small fee to cover the cost of

printing the ticket, but you can also download and print the ticket yourself. When you board

the plane, you are given a seat, four bolts, a wrench and a copy of the seat-HOWTO.htrnl.

Once settled, the fully adjustable seat is very comfortable, the plan leaves and arrives on

time without a single problem, the in-flight meal is wonderful. You try to tell

customers of the other airlines about the great trip, but all they can say is,

"You had to do what with the seat?"
