I have Autism, my son does too, I have another son with cerebral palsy and yet another with Downs Syndrome. I understand disability, believe me. Having autism I tend to resist major change and seeing a suggestion about placing pictorials in source code pushed by "oh no" button, that''s all. Smile

Hey, I was upset because it is yet another failure for me to parse what's in my head and coherently communicate what I want to communicate.  A lifetime of struggle that is only getting worse.

"Eff" on its own would warrant a "calm down."  That would be me indicating frustration.

"Eff it", that is what I say or write to lightning-fast get from agitated/frustrated to zen.  (Reminds me of the "Eff it" list.  I happily get to cross a whole bunch of them off everyday, while I don't get to cross off things on the bucket list very often.)

Instant zen because they "Eff it" are the words of surrender to what is.  It is a recognition that I am again stubbornly struggling against my greatest weakness instead of playing to my strengths, so I need to give it a rest.  One will not get a bean plant out of a tomato seed.  Better for me to be a spectator than a participant, and throw a "+1" when I find something worth applauding.
