Public Service Announcement or "I'm whining, don't mind me."

A small, don't mind me, pass on, whiny post.

Drive's me nuts when all of a sudden every app, platform and web-whatever decides "YES, WE ARE UPDATING! NEW, NEW, NEW! BETTER, BETTER, BETTER! YOU WILL - *must* - LOVE IT! CHANGE OVER NOW! (or we will change it for you X days) HIT THIS BUTTON ***NOW***"
(Yes, I'm looking at you, Blogger.)
Me: (grumble grouch %$@&) hit's button

"CHOOSE THIS, THIS, THIS, THIS, THIS OR THIS, RESET EVERY PASS WORD (must contain 45 letters, 15 of which must be caps, 20 numbers, five emoticons and a live chicken)
me: 2 and half hours later: hit's last button.
Internet explodes, the chicken escapes, the computer begins spinning and vomiting green pea soup, the cats go into hiding, and the password is not accepted - again.

Me screaming to the sky: "FOR THE LOVE OF ALL, PEOPLE, IT WAS WORKING FINE AND I WAS HAPPY!!! LEAVE WELL ENOUGH THE %$#@& ALONE."
Thus ends today's whining fit.

We now return you to your happy internet!
Have a nice day!
