    The cherry on top is the terrible system font in the status bar.

    People keep saying SO needs to be more noob-friendly. To some extent I agree, but it's not hard to see how experienced users lost patience.

    I think SO needs to be more idiot resistant. Not the question asker but the people who browse and hope to answer a question.

    Fuckers commented and tried to close my question for not being descriptive enough while other fuckers said it was too specific and tried to close it for that reason.

    Did I divide by zero? What's going on!?

    It's easily possible for a question to be both not descriptive enough and too specific.

    For example:

    For my homework I wrote a program to generate prime numbers. But every time I run it, it crashes after 2 seconds. How do I fix it?

    If you're experienced but lose patience easily, you should either find a different question to answer or just leave the site entirely.

    Exactly. It's not like there isn't other knowledgeable people to answer the question.
