A simple matter
It should be a simple matter to take this photo into Photoshop and remove the weed off this guy's bill, and I'm sure it is, but I'll be darned if I can do it without investing the time to learn to navigate that bloody obtuse program.
I find Adobe's software interfaces in general to be arrogantly obtuse to navigate and Photoshop is especially so. I use Adobe's Lightroom 3 to catalog my pictures and do most of my editing and I've gotten reasonably good at it, but I'll be darned if I can move over into Photoshop and get anything done. The interface is different and not intuitive enough for me to pick up on the fly. Why oh why must it be thus and so, after all they do come out of the same house? Bah!

Stay What You Always Were
My sisters have been listening to me all my life and vice versa, and there's a limit to how interesting we find each other. Which is one of the reasons, surely -- this is exactly the kind of thought that didn't come up in conversation -- that it is at least as stifling as it is comforting to be with family. It doesn't allow its members to experiment with themselves. The penalty for being loyally accepted for the whole of your life is that you must stay what you always were.
