... Stop trying to compel the language of your users. I don't want to be nice to you. I want you to fix your fucking operating system. 4. None of this should have been a notification in the first place. This is not important enough to be a notification.

1. I don't use Microsoft Edge - fuck off. 2. I hardly go on Facebook, you absolute morons - why would I want it on the taskbar. 3. Why is there 'thanks' after 'no'? I don't want to thank you - you are complete and utter bellends.

This is complete and utter bollocks. A good 50% of the books suggested in English Literature curricula are self-indulgent, modern shit that no sane teenager wants to read. Give them the classics, so that they actually get to partake in their own English cultural heritage.

Somehow there was a wasp in the hood of my hoodie! Didn't hear it, but felt something crawling back there. Reached back - it stung my finger - and then I pulled the hoodie off as quickly as I could. Rest assured, it's now dead. Death to all wasps. Vile creatures.
