I was told by the idiot who did it (read: a family member) that in some version of Excel selecting a whole row by clicking the row button and then hitting merge and center makes it completely lose its shit. Because merging infinite cells, or something. You would think MS would have seen that one coming.

I don’t know if he was working with XP or 2007, but I think it was one of those. Not a shock to hear it got fixed, because REALLY?

Yeah that’ll happen from time to time.

Unrelated: my classmate and I used to get into arguments with our CS professor because she wasn’t so good (but very confident) with her math skills and we were both math majors, it was frustrating...

Ugh, that’s the worst. I once had someone who had no idea about mechanics try to explain to me that bigger wheels makes a car go faster.

Well a pedant could explain that with power/torque not being the limiting factors and a fixed final gear ratio and a limited rpm, he could be correct. I will not be that pedant.

Nothing beyond just fitting the car with larger wheels was part of the discussion.
