I'm convinced that the only thing worse than having Internet Explorer on your desktop is actually having to use Internet Explorer, which I unfortunately was forced to do when I popped into a Kinkos recently to print something at one of their computer terminals. I thought I might die. I wanted to die. It was awful. Somehow I survived using the browser of choice for dullards.
With that said, some people have found a cool new use for having an Internet Explorer icon on their desktops: saving images from pop culture as their wallpaper and positioning the IE icons in just the right place so that it appears as though the character in the image is horrified to see it there. It's pretty great. I kinda want to download IE to my Mac just so I can make one myself. No, actually, forget I ever said that.
Anyway, via Imgur, here are a few that me LOL when I saw them. Enjoy.

The funny thing is that the newest version of Internet Explorer is far better than Firefox. I can barely use Firefox any more. It’s sluggish and looks like garbage. (For the record, I use Chrome as my primary browser).
Yeah ie9 is fine. Still not my choice (chrome) but I’m not worried if thats whats there to use.
I meant Internet Explorer 10 but even 9 wasn’t the worst.
my father refuses to let me put chrome on their new computer because NO DOWNLOADING. and any time i find myself using that laptop for internet access i die a little bit inside.
Never using IE means you probably don’t work a desk job. Chrome/Safari/Firefox etc are all nightmares if you’re doing anything that requires domain joined security or Windows authentication.
And I’ll second the IE 9/10 being VAST improvements over IE 6-8. Still not better than Chrome, but if you think Safari and Firefox are better than IE, you clearly haven’t used it in years.
Also really disappointed McKayla Maroney is not impressed didn’t make the slideshow
where can i get that ghost modern warfare 2 wallpaper? it’s sick
An author who uses a mac and a bunch of commenters who think chrome is better than Firefox. I guess that’s what I get for reading about tech on a justin beiber fan site…
