Maybe you should work in a garden centre you'd be on a constant high.

Surely the presence of plants reflects employers giving a shit about the employee environment and that this this is the true reason for happiness and productivity. Really come on... I don't look at a plant and feel happy, it's common sense.

Also makes sense as does similar comment. Not convinced though, I should at least see it going on even if it wasn't happening to me.

Makes sense that

I don't blame you after that, I apologise on behalf of the decent 99% of Mancunians. Maybe it's 90% +

Outside of UK I've only been to Paris, never seen this kind of thing in London/Manchester but I've read about the same thing happening in Rome and Barcelona.

Not an easy problem to solve.

It's hard to keep off the tourist path on the first visit to Paris with an innocent child-like wife! Next time though I'll enjoy it and put more effort into finding the best places to go.

4 day visit with wife in 2010. Paris for me :

Groups of women with clipboards surrounding you trying to pick pocket when you hold the clipboard.

The horrible wedding ring women and the blokes that are always nearby.

The wrist bracelet creeps. Don't let them grab your wrist, they won't let go unless you pay (saw this happen).

Tricked by "helpful" man who gave us fake tickets in exchange for real money. I know. Naive.

These sets of cunts really pissed me off. I was glad to get back to to UK I felt safer, I didn't get the impression the police in Paris were tackling the issue.

Otherwise very nice and I should go again a bit wiser (just said that for a balanced post).

Linkbait title. Rolls eyes yet again.

You don't say

I'm hoping for 2,272 x 1280 5-6 inch screens this year

Where's the distance measuring ruler gone in the new maps? Pokémon is a higher priority?

Rubbish.

This could be it. I mostly use desktops. When I use a laptop I always use a connected mouse because trackpads are an impediment to me. So to reproduce this frustration you'd need to accidentally move the cursor away from the text control and then accidentally tap the trackpad again to invoke single click and move the focus away. I can see how this might seem like the browser has a mind of its own.

Programmer here, I get pissed off with a lot of things but backspace-in-a-browser isn't one of them, I like it and always have. Maybe I take for granted my intimate knowledge of how html and browsers work. I get much more annoyed with some of the seemingly nonsensical Mac conventions coming from Windows.

Gotta disagree here. I never have a problem with this useful long-standing feature.

Exactly.
