    And Safari's for people that don't want extensions or features. Right?

    That's just the rendering engine they're testing. My browser is called "AdBlock".

    Luckily for you there are people like me who will share the burden you place on society.

    What do you do? Look at extra ads? What a retard.

    I use adblock+, everyone who's computer I service uses FF + adblock+. I am going to make sure tomorrow I convert at least 5 new people. Just to piss you off.

    With extensions and stuff that want to check for updates, FireFox can take a while.
    But then, I was trained in the...meditative...initialization fields of Emacs, so I am at peace with this.
    You get it moving, you open a slew of tabs, and life is good.
    Maybe FireFox and Emacs could one day merge...

    Instead, they use the much faster (and also more correct) SquirrelFish Extreme engine.

    That sounds like some sort of obscene initiation rite...

    I assume it's something used to express disbelief at a situation or fact, much like "facepalm". Except, well, accomplished with a book one happens to be holding at the moment.
