Why is everyone always focused on Office-like apps (Score 2)

The reasoning is something like this...

Pointy-haired bosses control computer procurement money.
Pointy-haired bosses use M$ Office.
Therefore, computers must have M$ Office.

Like you, I rarely use Office, but on occasion I am
required to halt real work and make viewgraphs that the
aforementioned bosses can understand.

Also, sometimes my productivity threatens to exceed some
predetermined limit, so I must "spin down" and I use M$
Office to do so. It excels at wasting time and effort.
"WHY DOES IT KEEP INDENTING EVERYTHING!?!?!?!? Well,
I'll just highlight this word and select... AIEEE! NO!
BASTARD REDMOND HELLSPAWN, THAT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE
IN A BOLD FONT!!!! AARRRGHHH!!"
