    “I haven’t used Windows in over a decade, so I’m afraid I can’t help you” is one of my favorite sentences.

    I helped a family member with their Windows PC a few days ago and, omg, I hate using Windows. It’s so bloated and unintuitive. It’s a mess, and it seems to get worse every time I use it.

      One of the reasons I switched was just being sick of dealing with Windows issues, the time spent troubleshooting, having to constantly tinker. And despite all the users out there, the frequency of hitting a dead end and just having to deal with it was common enough.

      So after yet another Windows-fuelled rage and four glasses of wine, “Fuck it! I’ll see what everyone’s raving about…”

      An hour later…

    Seriously though what was up with the bad guy in commando? Did he look way different during casting and then decided to have a cheeseburger and heroin diet? Is he the friend of someone who made the movie? He looks like a $5 Freddie Mercury knockoff, and the only aspect of that movie that’s ever bothered me is the fact that he was a bad guy and was supposed to be feared.

      He was cast because he was in the mad max movie a couple years before, and the director thought he could hold his own ground opposite Schwarzenegger

        Thanks for the info! So he did kind of let himself go after being in mad Max, because yeah, that character would have been a decent bad guy.

        I’m just surprised they were like,'fuck it, we already bought a chainmail shirt his size, and I’m not watching anymore casting VHS’s
