I only cared when I was poor and living paycheck to paycheck.
This seemingly simple thing enrages me on a daily basis.
How difficult can it fucking be to write some damn code to omit “the” from sorting if it is the first word of a title? JFC

I used to be a huge Stephen King junkie, read every novel within a few weeks of each release (started young by reading Salem’s Lot way too young). Then he started getting really repetitive in the mid-90s.

The most unpleasant thing about that novel was that fixing things made it infinitely worse.
