Blinkz0rz: May 27, 2001; MY CONTEMPT FOR MY OWN EMPLOYEES IS ONLY MATCHED BY MY LOVE FOR TOM BRADY'S SWEATY MAGA BALLS

i just had to write a desktop app in xojo aka realbasic and it was a painful experience to say the least

like bashing a rock against my balls except the rock was my fist and bashing it against my balls somehow bruised my fist as well as my balls
