Absolutely beautiful review for the MLA Style Manual by Joseph Gibaldi

This novel cured my Erectile Dysfunction! Thank you Joseph Gibaldi! Not only that, its an amazing read. Had me on the edge of my seat the entire time! Very suspenseful. I do have one complaint though. This book has given me the most terrifying nightmares I have ever experienced in my life after reading it. I haven't been able to sleep for 2 weeks as of now and Im beginning to have hallucinations. This has caused me to lose my position as Senior Manager for Apple and now I cant afford to pay the rent on my Los Angeles Condo or the payments on my Tesla Model X that has a total seating capacity of 7 adults and a total interior storage 88.1 cu ft in the five seat configuration. Im getting evicted in a week and my girlfriend thinks we should take a break from each other for a little bit. This isn't a Google Review. It's a cry for help.

The MLA Style Manual ruined my fucking life

This homoerotic novel is a masterpiece. Nothing gets me hard like the MLA Citation Manual. Sometimes I fantasize about giving Joseph Gibaldi an intense anal beating while I read it. I have been jacking off non-stop to the thought and my foreskin is beginning to tear from the exertion. I have been happily married for 4 years, but ever since this novel, my wife just is no longer doing it for me. I can't get hard during sex anymore because all I can think about is Joseph Gibaldi and the work of art known as the MLA Style Manual. Due to my constant erotic impulses pertaining to this book, I might lose my job. I have begged them to let me keep my job so I won't lose my house and wife, but they said that taking the MLA Style Manual into the supply closet with me for 20-30 minutes during the workday to rub one out is "unprofessional" and is "scaring away the children." 9.5/10. Even though it has technically ruined my life, it has brought to me a new age of sexual tendencies.

update: my foreskin is almost completely obliterated as of now. I'm going to have to get it removed or else I will get an infection.

What happened to "The Missile Knows Where It Is, Because It Knows Where It Isn't"-style system documentation and operating manuals?

Context: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZe5J8SVCYQ

Am I imagining/remember history correctly when I think the typical business of being a system administrator used to be driven largely by "if that, then this" style operating manuals? People working in banks, insurance companies, telecommunications (and so on) would have a great big thick book called "The System", which they would learn, and that would be it - their job was to follow the sort of "nuclear missile launch procedure" of following steps in a book? The Simpsons touches on this when Homer has to deal with a reactor meltdown, and pulls out a giant phonebook sized manual.

Another example, in the old film The China Syndrome you get a glimpse into a (badly run) nuclear power facility, and the technicians refer to "the book". If the water level changes in "this" direction open "this switch", sort of hand-holding. I started out in telecoms many years ago, and I recall a similar sort of operating process.

This seems to have totally changed these days. There doesn't seem to be "A Book" for most corporate IT systems these days; it feels like everything is thrown together quickly, random gadgets and pulled in from Github in a sort of "Devil may care" attitude. It all seems very chaotic, if not amateur - whereas I look back to the "old days" and it felt a bit more sane, sensible and solid.

Am I imagining this old word, or is my view tinted by my older work experience history? If the "Book" sort of process management is/was real - what was it called?

How Often Should I Update my Manual of Style of Writing?

I have the Chicago manual 17th edition, from 2017. Should I update it? Also if I should, then how often? Every year? Every three to five years? Note: I'm no longer in school, but I do write horror fiction as a hobby.

Chicago Manual of Style- how important is it to have the latest version?

It looks like the most recent version available online is the 17th edition, but I found some older editions for significantly cheaper (14th edition.) I'm willing to shell out the money if it's an important difference so I was just wondering how much changes from version to version.

I'm using it as a reference for writing fiction, if that makes a difference. No academic papers for me.

Is ranged the easiest combat style for above average DPS performance when lacking Manual-Eoc Skills?

Is it?

I've been thinking about this recently, and the logic behind my reasoning is that to obtain ideal dps performance with magic you will need to, ideally, 4taa which requires manual skill and developing some degree of muscle memory to it. On the other hand, to achieve ideal dps with melee, you require to do certain switches. All while in ranged you basically don't need to do much of these things.

Formatting my essay in MLA style gives me the ultimate satisfation

Idk about y'all but I usually write my essays in the default settings of google docs (11 Arial 1.5 spacing) and when i finally finish that damn essay, I get to change it into 12 times new roman double spaced and indented and making it look oh so professional is just so satisfying.

Anyone else?

Or maybe this is just a weird quirk of mine
