I love this from McSweeney’s: “Important Follow-up Re: the New Password Complexity Policy.” So very true. I think I lost my soda around the part about wingdings, kanji, and original bitmap drawings.
And speaking of McSweeney’s and computing, I just have to revisit one of my favorite bits, “E-mail Shorthand That Civil War Soldiers Would Likely Have Used in Letters Home Had the Technology Been Available to Them.” Ha, I can just imagine the narration and the Mathew Brady photos, panning Ken Burns-like across the screen.
