A quick trip to the vet and some antibiotics should cure it. My cats were sneezing when they first got home from the SPCA, but a week of antibiotics fixed the problem.

First, I would never say that men created buildings in a subconscious attempt to glorify their penises. Some psychoanalytic feminists might say that, but they would also say that logic and straight lines are too masculine. I have serious issues with all three statements. Second, a focus on straight, tall buildings completely ignores all of the domes and arches built by engineers of the past. Are we going to say that those men were just breast obsessed? Perhaps they knew that curved architecture has its structural strong points. Third, maybe women would design architecture differently than men, but I doubt it would involve a lot of caves. Maybe different building layouts or something. I’m not sure where I stand on this one. First, I would never say that men created buildings in a subconscious attempt to glorify their penises.

But the fact that Windows exhibits those problems is not my fault, and complaining about them as a personal user should come as no surprise or offense to them. Instead, they should turn the other cheek and make it better. I actually did tone it down a little from the original version.

Unless they are the first or last word of the title, of course. Or maybe in some weird situations. Alternatively, we could just do away with capitalization altogether.

Then, right after their eyes shrivel and become as useless as a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Nacktmull.jpg" rel="nofollow">naked mole rat's</a>, they will get a killer sunburn on their pasty-white skin.
