I like Asian gummy candies but it makes me feel guilty that they're all individually wrapped. All those wrappers...

Purchased the "black air jacket set" by Power Support for my iPhone. Very thin and sleek but doesn't cover the front edges. Hmm.

iPhone Earbuds Are Anti-Collared Shirt

I hate the position of the mic on the earbuds that come with the iPhone. Maybe it's just me but it keeps get caught on the collar of my button-up shirts. Grr.

Some Mac Annoyances

A running list of things I don't like about the Mac:

- When you click on a menu item that expands to display more items, it'll either close the entire menu or close the expanded menu, depending on the application.
- Even though the Character Palette sits on top of applications, keyboard shortcuts actually control the app underneath it. For example, if I'm finished using the Character Palette and click ⌘-w or ⌘-q it'll close the app underneath, not the Character Palette.
- I'm not able to simply copy and paste from the Character Palette. I need to have a text field available and active, and then I need to double-click the character (glyph) I want.
- Resizing the Character Palette doesn't actually show me more characters, it just makes them bigger. Doh.
- When ⌘-tabbing between application, many times my mouse cursor is right in the middle of the screen. If I move it slightly, the cursor selects another application and when I let go of the keyboard shortcut it brings up that application.
- Why doesn't Firefox for Mac access dropdown and checkbox form fields when tabbing through them? 'Tarded.
- Taking a screenshot... I love the option to be able to select a certain area via ⌘-shift-4 or the whole screen via ⌘-shift-3, but I'd rather it didn't save it automatically to a file on the Desktop. Number 1 is that I have to then go find and open the file and then copy-and-paste it into the document I'm working with. Number 2 is that it produces clutter and I have to remember to delete it. Is there an option to just save to the clipboard? Edit: Yes! But it's a pretty convoluted key combination: ⌘-shift-control-3 or -4.
- Only being able to resize windows via the right-bottom corner is pretty limiting.

Curse you yogurt, you've spit up on me 3 days in a row when I peel off your tin cover.
