Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My friend, a database designer, just ranted at me about his day. Seems he got a panicked call from a user "OMG!!! ALL my documents are GONE!!! You have to help me!!! I clicked on Current Fiscal Year and there's nothing there!!!"
As if that wasn't punchline enough, it keeps going. She demanded that he create a view to show all the documents, not just by fiscal year. So he did. But that was too confusing, so she asked him to create a view that just showed this fiscal year. But there weren't any docs, so she panicked again. He tried to explain "No documents have been created yet this fiscal year. All the documents are from last year. You can see them in the Last Fiscal Year view. If someone creates 5 documents today, you'll see them in Current Fiscal Year."
Towards the end of the workday, he got an email from his boss. It was a forwarded email from this user to the boss, saying "Xxxx changed the database and said something about 5 documents, but I can't see them. I think he deleted them."

I can encourage you to buy it. Does that count?

Does said encouragement involve Paypal?

No, it involves saying things like, "It's only $89.00," despite the fact that I'm not sure I have enough cash on me to buy a gallon of milk.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
After challenging viewers to make him a Jedi hero, Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert described "an actual dream" of his. It featured a squadron of Nancy Pelosi clones, Soledad O'Brien in a gold bikini, and Karl Rove's sail barge. Silver & Goldie Goodman recreated Stephen's dream, bringing his fighting spirit to a new level of super heroism.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
"OMG!!! ALL my documents are GONE!!! You have to help me!!! I clicked on Current Fiscal Year and there's nothing there!!!"
Heh. We had some of that here (with less panicking), too.

I don't like users.
Which is probably no surprise since right now I don't like anyone.
But I really like dragonflies.
I also have not had a snack this morning, and I don't remember the point of skipping it.
