Bye, Bye, Doggie
I find it funny that most of those Microsoft “animated characters” do a sort of farewell salute when you disable them permanently.
I’m never quite sure why this would be found useful, given those who disable such a feature probably don’t feel too sympathetic to the creatures to start. Why are these things forced so hard on us, anyway?
Regardless, making a puppy sad is not exactly an uplifting computer experience whether you’re sympathetic to the little guy or not. I almost wanted to say, “Come back! You can help me find that file.”
But Clippy… no… Clippy had it coming.
