If anyone uses small enough font for me to fail reading it with the naked eye, I just copy and paste it into the address bar temporarily. Easier that way for me.
I have a feeling that in the future I shall be spending a lot less time zooming in. :P

On a different note, it just occurred to me that boss took offense at being called a "nerd." Is this term, and likewise terms like it (i.e. "geek," "dork," etc.) considered derogatory on this forum? It would seem that on a site so obviously computer/fan club-related it would be considered a compliment of sorts - especially in that context. Is this not so? I would be glad to hear if not so that in the future I will not run the risk of offending other forum-goers.

I take it as a... semi-compliment, if you will. I acknowledge that I am among the nerdiest of nerds, those who forego sleep for video games, but it depends on the context and all. I call myself a nerd mockingly, but if it is meant as an insult, I get *slightly* peeved. Not very peeved, since the only people I know who would do as much are total jackasses and have very small brains, but their undying perseverence in attempting to destroy my confidence as they once had is very aggravating with time.

I'm so there with you. Most of the time I don't dislike those jackasses thinking/outing those things, because they are, like you already mentioned, really oblivious. Sometimes it gets to me though. Shame really. But at least they don't get to me all the time anymore. Just being optimistic.

For anyone who can't read/understand the above:
I had no sleep last night.

Indeed, exactly my point. I like how I spend my nights playing Guilty Gear endlessly (I would just use the interweb all that time, but my computer happens to be FAR closer to my parents' room [and far noisier] so I play the PS2). :D

Adopt a napping sleep schedule. 2 hours, 3 times a day.
