    Thank you for being a friend
    Traveled down the road and back again
    Your heart is true, you're a pal and a cosmonaut.

    And if you threw a party
    Invited everyone you ever knew
    You would see the biggest gift would be from me
    And the card attached would say, thank you for being a friend.

    I am no MS fanboi but whenever I point out a negative about these precious DM's then I get modded down to hell and back, so now that I poke fun of it I am going to get the same treatment cause it was never praised (by the same fucking people).

    although I have gotten several lengthy messages on how I am a Luddite stuck in the 90's and can no possibly comprehend modern technology, but NOW I am a MS fanboi

    fuck you trolls I cant ever win with you people unless I am flipping bits with a god damned magnet (which then I would be bashed for not using SSD)
