Kicking it off with some fresh rice:

Parsifal is abusing his mod powers. How do I get that sexy home screen? Are you using a launcher or something?

Literally Hitler, coup, etc.
Yes, I'm using Nova Launcher. The other stuff you see there is Lucent and Tiny White icons, DashClock, Poweramp widget, Simple RSS Widget, and Jorte calendar.

Well, let's see now...

It could be shittier. Chris could be using Debian.

Well, let's see now...
>icons obstructing wallpaper - This is a working desktop, I drop and organise files here before moving them to their more permanant homes.
>taskbar on top - What's wrong with he taskbar on top?
>default theme - As customised as a work computer can be
>microsoft office - Works standard, I've given a presentation at work arguing to use free software but to no avail.
>adobe reader - Again, works standard.
>quicktime player - Again, works standard.
-
>taskbar on top - What's wrong with he taskbar on top?
I personally like to just jam the mouse cursor up the corner of the screen and click to close a window. With the taskbar on top, I'd have to pay attention where the mouse cursor is before I click, or I'd end up clicking the taskbar. Also, it looks terrible.

You can't use classic theme? You have to use this awful looking bloated abomination?

If your desk is set up correctly, your eye level should be at the top of your screen as it creates less stress on the neck and spine. I like to keep a track of open programs and the time.
Also, it looks better than having wasted space at the top and bottom of the screen.

I like it, apart from the overly large start button. I've made the buttons and icons small and the bars are transparent so it's not as intrusive as the classic theme.

Transparency is terrible.

Define unneccesary - it looks nicer than without and doesn't seem to slow the computer down by any appreciable margin.

Why don't you post your desktop, beardo?

It's the same as the last one I posted on the old site

Not noticeably.

Beardo's computer is so bad that the transparency is enough to make it lag.

Yep.

Hi. I like this new launcher. Simple and stuff.

I hope others don't see you using your phone in public.

Why? I think my phone is nice.
Plus everyone loves Miranda Kerr.

Illogical. I didn't even know who she was. And now that I do, I still don't love her. So you're wrong.

Thork is demanding a cleaner, less cluttered image, so that other people might see it when you are out and about.

As in I have icons on the screen. I don't want them to get lost in a lurid background.
-
It's okay, you can use something that better suits your demands, such as my wallpaper.
-
I have a Windows phone now anyway. I now need a nice lockscreen. :D

I use it on my phone and I didn't notice any issues. I could make the colours a bit less vibrant if you think that'd help.

No I am a meteorologist. I just strap myself to a big weather balloon and hope for the best.

Those are atrocious Blanko. Seems to be consistent with what I've seen from your design "skills".
I do like your lens blurred backgrounds though.

I'm really hoping that "Chan" doesn't link to 4chan.

My screens have no modifications. It is stock. So the point you are trying to make couldn't be less relevant.
I'm surprised a hot shot designer like you couldn't pick up on that.

Changing your wallpaper is a modification, and you deliberately picked one that clashes with every UI element on screen. It's not easy to make stock Android look messier than it already is, so good job on that.

I didn't realize using GoLauncher made you a hot shot designer.

Changing my wallpaper is a pretty small modification. Not to mention that both of the ones I posted are hi res dark backgrounds. It's your absolute lack of design sense that is picking at straws.
You on the other hand went through the trouble of downloading horrendous icons, boring widgets and ugly typefaces. I'm pretty sure your calendar widget is one from the Eclair era. But go ahead, enjoy that.

It's nova. Probably Zooper widget. In any case, I thought you were a sarcasm pro. So I'm surprised you also didn't pick up on that.

Really? Originally I said that your homescreen was atrocious. It was so absolutely uncalled for that it could be for nothing more than jest. It continued to be nonchalantly and sarcastically snide until just now, when you actually made it apparent that you actually are offended.

You say this exactly 1 minute after I started to like you. Way to go.

It would be, especially since he was recently banned on old FES, but his ban was revoked after bitching about it to jroa for a few hours on IRC.
I don't know if I want to deal with that, though.

Me and jroa have a history. I thought I'd build one with you too based on mutual sarcasm and shit talking. I'm sorry you don't feel the same way.

You misunderstand, he means the verb form of "used". He has been trying to get this new computer to be used by someone for a long time now, and finally someone has used it.

I can't help thinking the google chrome logo looks a lot like the 'Simon Says' game from the 1980's.

Probably not a coincidence. I'm guessing Google wants you to do whatever Google tells you to do. >:(
"Nuh-uh, Google didn't say-so!" >o<
-
Google knows four options would confuse most of its audience, so it limited itself to three buttons in order to increase your "Google Says" proficiency.
