But what about my fear of pronouncing words ending in 'phobia' ?

No! No! No!
I'm not afraid of phobias - just uttering words that end in 'phobia'

No code or build problems, but there's another thing that bugs me:
I ordered a Dell 7577 notebook two weeks ago, and paid in advance using IDEAL, but the status on the Dutch Dell website now tells me that it has been cancelled !
After hanging on the phone for a long time I finally found out what the problem was, a problem on the Dell side with the coupling of the payments via IDEAL.
Never had problems paying this way before !
Looking on the internet it turns out Dell has had problems with this for years now

Did you get your virtual money back?

No, I'm still waiting on a reaction from Dell, but as I have seen comments of other displeased customers this can take quite a while

Why did you get a computer from DHell? They are likely the most incompetent at things. I had three of their computers fry themselves in the exact same way. The second two were replacements for the previous ones. I gave up on them after that.
Yes, I reported the issues and ended up getting money out of it.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Well, I read positive reviews about their XPS series and gaming notebooks, but of course this says nothing about the quality of service and support ...

I'm no big fan of smalltalk and just wanted to chill there so I brought it to a quick clojure.

And now that mousie has been ejected from my office - the cat released a live one and it took a while to recapture - I can get myself a coffee as well...

Hi All,
Today appears to be Friday the 13th, in my family it was always taken to be a lucky day. My Grandad was rescued from the British Channel on Friday the 13th & the South Atlantic on another Friday the 13th, different years in WWI. The first due to a visit from a uboat the second due to a boiler explosion. Makes you think sitting at a desk is safer.

I was born on a Friday the 13th. Whether that makes it a lucky day...
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

It wasn't October 13th. I only said that I was born on a Friday the 13th.
