The reason I’m going to stop using this wildly popular software

YouTube has lots of videos with titles like, “5 Reasons I’m Going To Stop Using WordPress!” or “Here’s Why I’ll Never, EVER Use Microsoft Word Again and Why You Shouldn’t, Either!”

They start out slagging the software for a few minutes and then say, “Well, there’s some good news about all this. I’m not going to stop using it completely! I mean, it’s useful for SOME things. I use it for my daily calendar. And for reminders like taking medicine I need so I don’t die. And to make all my videos. And it starts my car in the morning, it brushes my teeth and gets me dates for the weekend. ”

Gee, you seem to rely on that software YOU ARE GOING TO STOP USING RIGHT AWAY! Or at least, VERY SOON.

No, you’re not.
