Take your whining and trolling elsewhere. Judging by your stupid
pseudonym and your past behavior, you're pretty full of yourself and
nothing anyone tells you here is going to satisfy you anyway. If you
want to tilt at windmills and make up non-existent problems, do it on
your own time and quit bothering the rest of us.
