Valentine's day should be in June or July. It makes no sense that the holiday you are supposed to take someone out on falls on the time of year where it is 17 degrees outside.

You could not live somewhere shit. It's not like it's 17 degrees everywhere.

Too bad the Ancient Romans didn't think further into the future, when they executed Saint Valentine of Rome on February 14th, making him a martyr.

Note to all current and future totalitarian regimes and dictators:
Always execute your delinquents, political prisoners and opposing politicians during summer time on the northern hemisphere.

I live in the wealthiest and most developed part of the country. One of the best developed places in the western world. Just because it gets cold doesn't make it shit.

New Jersey is much shitter than Sienna. I don't care what development index you use. you'd have to be perverse to want to live in Camden rather than the Italian campagna.

New Jersey has the same size and population of Israel. It is like calling Israel shitty because of the poverty of the Gaza strip. Which if you think about it, Camden is sort of like Gaza.

On a whole though, we are much more prosperous than most of Portugal, Poland, Spain, Scotland, the Baltic and Balkans. And NYC which is right next door.

The Jersey shore is nice. There are beaches

Yeah but you live in Staten Islands armpit. Might as well be Elizabeth,  yuck.

You were born and live in some insignificant suburb in Long Island. I was born in Manhattan and live much closer to it than you do.

When people talk about the New York experience they are talking about Manhattan and maybe Brooklyn. No one cares about uppity Long Island suburbs. Horrible way to live.

It does seem a bit ridiculous eh? Why pick a Saint for a holiday who was martyred at a time of year when the weather is bad?

We should move Christmas while we're at it, who wants to trudge through snow to buy presents, plus no-one has any money at Christmas, if it were at another time of year people would have more to spend, it would be good for the economy. Why not move it to just after the post-Christmas sales?
Why is Christmas even in the middle of winter? Those pagans were a bit dumb really, celebrating the solstice in the cold when they could have waited a few months, but then it would clash with Easter I suppose - that would have to be pushed back and then all the chocolate bunnies would melt.

Harvard University in the US is going to remove the word "master" from academic titles, after protests from students who claimed the title had echoes of slavery.

its easy to get annoyed at both of them

Sounds ridiculous but at the same time

Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant has signed a proclamation declaring the month of April "Confederate Heritage Month" in his state. The signing was first reported by the Jackson Free Press

Clay Chandler, director of communications for Gov. Bryant, confirmed that the proclamation had been issued.

Hard to get upset over people wanting to change academic titles while people in this country still want to celebrate the confederacy and slavery.

they should call it traitor month.

Windows 10 doesn't let me choose a library for my backgrounds like w8 did.

Solidworks 2016 is a step backwards compared with 2015.

The interface is glitchy, unstable and hard to see,

Hey I know, lets change the format of every single icon, and change from colours to shades of blue and grey. When a grey-blue icon is selected it should become highlighted in a fractionally different shade of blue-grey, and while we're about it lets go backwards 5 years with some of the features.

You can still choose a folder though. Doesn't everyone nowadays have a folder called 'wallpapers' with all their background-worthy photos in there?
