Just grappling with my new Apple Macbook at the moment. Managed to get myself locked out as I forgot my password but back in again now. Why do Apple have to do everything differently to Windows?

TV drives me crazy because whenever it's in the vicinity my head can't stop turning towards it. I wish restaurants wouldn't torture people with it, but I especially wish my mom wouldn't watch TV while I'm trying to do something else.

Yesterday when my mother and I were out we stopped at a red light, and some other person sped right past us, going right through the light over the speed limit. What is wrong with people?? What makes them think, if they think at all, that they can dust do something illegal while the rest of us can't?

I've always been a Windows man since I got windows 98. This is the first Apple computer I've purchased so it's going to take me a while to get used to it. So far the battery life seems much better than my Windows 11 laptop, it cost £1600 which is more than twice what I paid for my Windows machine so it will take a while to work out if it's good value.

Prepandemic you might have said a person was a bit on the eccentric side if they regularly used an antibacterial hand agent in public

These days you wouldn't even bat an eyelid

If I could just stop feeling so sorry for myself I might be able to see what a privileged person I actually am
