This Chaps My Redneck Butt!!

Bad Publicity for me and Stardock.

Why, I ask, does the Wincustomize Magazine tell the masses that DesktopX widgets/gadgets are for XP only????  I thought Brad said Stardock was moving forward? People who don't know better, and use XP, see this and think, "Well, I can't use that, no point to check it out." Or the like.

I make my DesktopX widgets/gadgets/themes on Vista and mostly now on Windows 7. Cmon guys, let's update the WC Magazine. This bad publicity is untrue and it hurts you and me. Not to mention the masses who could benefit from use of some cool widgets/gadgets.

:|  :typo: :\ :thumbsdown: :rolleyes: XO >:( :annoyed:  No wonder DX isn't more popular.....

RedneckDude, is it something to do with just those two widget packs?

It is like that every month, John. Sometimes it's my work, which is not XP only, also, this is a WC thing, not Stardock support.

Actually?   (pronounced "Tah-hat' ". That's the Sephardic and Modern Hebrew pronounciation. If wanting to say in Yiddish, which is Ashkenazi - it is pronounced "Tuh'-chis". The reasons would bore the crap out of you, though.  ;P ) The ' shows syllable accentuated.

And written in Yiddish and Hebrew the same way:

Okay, so I have to admit; I didn't know what a tookas was. So I had to find out. Actually, based upon my search, I think it's "tookus," but that's irrelevant.

The definition for tookus and tuchis are the same:

Now Jim, you've really got problems if your butt is chapped!

Desitin ointment helps.

The etymology is incorrect, though. Toochis comes from Hebrew...it means 'under'. The proper word is 'Yashvan' meaning the part that sits...Lashevet (to sit), Shvitah (a labor strike), Yeshiva (where people sit to learn), heetyashvut (settlement) are some of the words in modern Hebrew which come from shin-vet-tav (שבת) the root ... and the word Shabbat (Sabbath) "The Day of Rest" ... the day G-d ceased his labor: The work of creating the universe.

Must be that cold north wind blowing through the outhouse.:O

The magazine isn't the only thing that seems to be stuck in XP mode.:S  
That doesn't make the site look very up to date.  Whatever happened to the New and Improved WinCustomize:maybe:

Aww, don't feel bad, Jim...we need to have some fun. We know how serious having a chapped toochis can be...without Desitin.

You shouldn't make such provocative statements about your toochis without expecting some serious Pirating. And we be th' Pyrate Crew, matey...
