Operating System as a psycho-analysis
A week or two ago my friend Omer (who also responds to rants on this blog from time to time*) and I had a talk on the phone, in which he mentioned that over the years, I switched from Windows to Linux, while he was still using Windows, then I switched from Linux to FreeBSD, and he stayed in Windows, then I switched to Solaris, and he stayed in Windows, then for a short time I returned to Linux, him still being a Windows guy, and now I am using a Mac, and him? Still in Windows.
"What could this mean?" he pondered loudly. "Could this mean that I have a problem with commitment", I said in grave fear, "And that you have a problem accepting change and trying new things?"
A few seconds later we disregarded it by being too silly, and started thinking of something completely different.
Now, I know Joah is going to jump at this "Can't commit" thing. Baby, they're just operating systems. Not people.
* And probably is one of the few actual readers of it.

Coming to think about it, that's how we were called during Highschool days - Tal, Omer and myself, that is.
But I didn't talk of commitment just now. I think you're watching too many TV shows.
I didn't know that side of you, Joey.
It's weird. I stopped receiving notifications of blog updates. Very weird.
In any case, I think it's more like saying "Not only that I don't like kittens, I kill them and make myself a nice, warm kitten soup!".
That's how bad it is.
Actually, I really can't cope with change :P
That's disgusting... Is this the turkish supermarket near the bus station??
