I fully expect to lose a couple jobs in my lifetime due to refusal to play along with the tranny delusion. I made this decision the first time I encountered one, and I'm OK with the consequences.

If they believe adding 203 spaces equates to 480 hours of work, I'll happily bill them that many hours even if it only took an hour to find 203 whitespace "mistakes" with a regular expression.
It's 203 whitespace changes for 5000 bucks, they don't have to know how long it took.

Wow, did you read the blog they were referring to? He didn't even say anything controversial either.

They are generic prefixes used in chemistry. They were probably appropriated in order to make a guy pretending to be a gal sound more "scientific."
No and the office "ribbon" bullshit is still retarded nearly 10 years on.
