Silly me went and learned VBA code to make excel work right. … and whose idea was it to have default paste, paste the format?!? When has anyone EVER wanted a table filled with different sizes and colors and fonts. Make the formatted paste the ctrl-shift-v if you want that so bad. JfC. Am i not being rational? Because this gets me HEATED.

Pasting with format as default is one of the biggest mistakes of humanity. I can’t remember a single situation in all my life that I needed this.

My favorite is writing an email, copy&pasting a name and send it to the person. Only to discover later (on a different device) that your stupid email program pasted with format without actually showing it to you. And your mail looks like some moron played with the format settings.
