fear and loathing
fear and loathing /n./ [from Hunter S. Thompson] A state
inspired by the prospect of dealing with certain real-world systems
and standards that are totally brain-damaged but ubiquitous
-- Intel 8086s, or COBOL, or EBCDIC, or any IBM
machine except the Rios (a.k.a. the RS/6000). "Ack! They want
PCs to be able to talk to the AI machine. Fear and loathing
time!"
