I used to love programming until windows came out. Dude I wish we all still used DOS. I used to love addressing the video memory directly in 320x200x256 -- Mode 3 or something, right?... And fuck all that OOP crap like garbage collection and portability -- like it made programming any better or more fun... Windows was the worst thing that ever happened to programming. I remember when programmers coded their own window libraries... If I wanted to draw a damn window I would draw the fucking window myself direct to the video memory with my own fucking code... If I wanted fonts -- I would draw the fucking letters myself! If I wanted the letters to have colors I'd code my own fucking algorithm to shade them! If I wanted to access the modem I could communicate directly with COM1 or COM2... If I wanted to make a sound I'd fucking talk directly to the fucking sound card! Now you got to jump through the hoops of anal retentive dumbasses...

It just ain't the same man. Too much bullshit.
