Software warning! (funny!)

18 months ago, I upgraded to Girlfriend 1.0 from Drinking Mates 4.2 which I had used for years without any trouble. However, there are apparently conflicts between these two products and the only solution was to try and run Girlfriend 1.0 with the sound turned off.

To make matters worse Girlfriend 1.0 is incompatible with several other applications such as Lads Night Out 3.1, Mountain Biking 4.5, and Playboy 6.9. Successive versions of Girlfriend proved no better.

A shareware program, Party Girl 2.1, which I tried, had many bugs and left a virus in my system forcing me to shut down completely for several weeks.

Eventually I tried to run Girlfriend 1.2 and Girlfriend 1.0 at the same time, only to discover that when these two systems detected each other they caused severe damage to my hardware.

I then upgraded to Fiancée 1.0 only to discover that this product soon had to be upgraded further to Wife 1.0.

While Wife 1.0 tends to use up all my available resources it does come bundled with FreeSex Plus and Cleanhouse 2002.

Shortly after this upgrade, however, I found that Wife 1.0 could be very unstable and costly to run. Any mistakes I made were automatically stored in Wife 1.0's memory and could not be deleted. They then resurfaced months later when I had forgotten about them.

Wife 1.0 also has an automatic Diary, Explorer and E-mail Filter, and can, without warning, Launch TurboStrop and Whinge. These latter products have no Help files and I have to try to guess what the problem is.

Additional problems are that Wife 1.0 needs updating regularly, requiring ShoeShop Browser for new attachments and Hairstyle Express which needs to be reinstalled every other week. Wife 1.0 also spawns unwelcome child processes that drain my resources.

These conflict with some of the new games I wanted to try out warning me that they are an illegal operation.

Also, when Wife 1.0 attaches itself to my Audi TT hard drive, it often crashes. And Wife 1.0 comes with a rather annoying pop-up called Mother-In-Law which can't be turned off.

Recently I've been tempted to install Mistress 2003 but there could be problems. A friend of mine has alerted me to the fact that if Wife 1.0 detects Mistress 2003 it tends to delete all your Money files before un-installing itself

See also the comments of flight attendants and crew listed below.    Kulula is a low-cost South-African airline that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Unix Joke

A crontab, an fstab, gettytab and a hosts file walk into a bar. 'What'll it be?' asks the bartender. "I'll have something later," the crontab says. The fstab ignores him and hits the dance floor, looking for someone it can mount. "Just a beer," the gettytab says, "but this is the last one. You could say… it's my _terminal_ beer." The hosts file rolls his its at the bad pun, but doesn't order a drink. It just realized that it's got the wrong address… From Bruce
