Smile, we've been on candid camera, and we've been caught with our pants down, standing on our heads, with umbrellas between our teeth. "I have not succeeded in making this code do anything more than cause a crash and eat up system resources, and I certainly haven't used it to take over anyone else's computer and execute arbitrary code. I do not have 30 undisclosed Firefox vulnerabilities, nor did I ever make this claim. I have no undisclosed Firefox vulnerabilities. The person who was speaking with me made this claim, and I honestly have no idea if he has them or not." Of course it did not take long for black helicopters to arrive. Microsoft has computers, so do the hackers: a link! MS is behind it all!

it's terribly difficult to use noscript as so many sites require javascript. I've come across a lot of site that have their layout and navigation menus managed by javascript. Crazy but true.
Most site don't go to the effort of checking if you have javascript enabled before trying to use it.
it's very annoying.

Yeah, that's me, I just gotta keep looking for that silver lining!
