I hate Microsoft Word

Is it just ME or is M$ Word the most annoying piece of software EVER invented?

My thesis is probably going to end up somewhere in the vicinity of 50-60 pages. But I *swear* the bigger the document/file the more cumbersome Word becomes.
It makes my styles go all funny, cos everytime I do some small thing it adds another entry to the style list. And then it doesn’t like me trying to have different page number types for different sections.
And then it doesn’t like me trying to caption all my figures/tables according to chapter. I don’t want ‘Figure 1′, I want ‘Figure 2.1′ you fucking stupid piece of SHIT.

GRAH!@#!@~$~#~@#$#@
And then, I was using OpenOffice at the office today, and it does NICE captioning! And I’m like.. why can’t those bozos over there make this bloatware do that? WHY?

Well, I’m off to tussle with the monstrosity some more. Wish me luck.

Edit:
I do however, LOVE LOVE LOVE Firefox’s ability to bookmark all tabs into a folder and then open all those tabs back up in one browser. Very nifty when Tichondrius requires a reboot.
