Bonuspoints if it keeps being borked after undoing the last change. Certified Microsoft moment 😎
- My fight right now is with figure cross references inserting the whole fucking figure in the text body.
  I know how to fix it, but it's a pain.

  this is a perfect description of the microsoft office experience

Laughs in LaTeX.
- Laughs in more advanced Word/Libre skills.
- Laughs in Typst.
- Is latex better than Libre?
  
  Depends on who you ask... LaTeX is a typesetting system that uses plain text commands to format and structure documents. Has a bit of a learning curve. It also (usually) does exactly what you ask it for.

Me trying to move tables and figures around in Word:
- We need to bring back '90s hats.

Me in LaTeX: [H!], please be where I want you to be!

Pro-tip, at least when I last used Word, hold alt when dragging and dropping images. It somehow fixed the brokenness of the default way of doing it. I think this still works, I just haven't had to type anything up in like 5-10 years, of the stuff I have, I don't think I've ever had to include an image.

This is the Moment for the Latex or Typst people!

Wouldn't happen if you use formatting tools correctly.
- Don't blame me. I voted for Clippy.
- I'm actually pretty good at formating. Just found this funny
- Rarely happened to me either.
  If it happened it was usually due to me creating a design problem beforehand.
