"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

But I resent having to relearn a piece of software I've been using since college just because half the functions are now either moved or renamed.

Word.

I would be so pissed at my coworker that I might have to give her a specific what-for.

Oh, wow. Sort by color? That's...useful, yet almost annoying.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now I wonder - if you have a shitload of colors in your cells and you sort by color, will you end up with a rainbow (with the colors in correct ROYGBIV order)?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Dear lord, color coding kills me. One of my co-workers codes EVERY CELL of her status report by color, blue means done, green means with the author, yellow means with production, it's like Times Square. I cannot read it. I don't even bother; she'll tell me if she needs help, and that's all I really need to know. Damn thing gives me a headache.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think you can order the colors any way you want.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Can you ask each cell in the spreadsheet how it feels, and then sort by mood?

For that you need the Mood Ring macro.

Jessica, how did you sort by color?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

that's brilliant. I saved that to evernote.
