I am constantly amazed with a) peoples obsessions with underwear and b) how really bent up people get over a number being 16 instead of 15.

I said somewhere in the comments that I was disqualified for the minimalist Olympics...

If I promise to give you 50 bucks for some software you wrote and then I only give you 10, you wouldn't be offended or complain, right?

Perhaps a closer analogy would be "If I was playing golf with you and I took 6 strokes for a hole, would you be offended if I called that a hole-in-one?"

Seriously? Clicking on a link with a vaguely misleading headline is the same as giving someone $50? Really?

I was promised something by the (outrageously) surprising claim in the headline and the article could not remotely keep up... and this was the first analogy that came to my mind - in both cases something was promised but then not fulfilled.
