The Worst of the Worst

.

Dear Readers:

Of all the word processing programs available, IMHO Adobe has to be the most user unfriendly, the most frustrating, and the most hated of all.

Apparently these views are shared worldwide as the below graph is going viral on the internet.

Whenever I boot my first chore is to open Task Manager and stop Adobe Updater from eating my system resources. This saves a good deal of the bother involved with updates and reboots but at the most inconvenient times Adobe Updater rises from the dead like a mutant zombie and interrupts my work with not only glee, but obviously no concern whatsoever.

The only time I ever use Adobe is under protest... when there is absolutely no other choice available.

Fortunately for The Editor this occurs infrequently.

Particularly bothersome are occasions when at last I relent, click on Install update, and resign myself to the gruesome fate of enduring while Adobe plods along, its progress slower than my Aunt Fannie on a lame white mule in a blinding winter snowstorm.

And what do you know, when processing finally grinds to a halt the maddening notification shamefully taunts:

Already installed on this computer

It's enough to drive a man to drink...

Make mine a double.
