Now here's HTML in very poor usage by someone obviously unfamiliar with
it (clipped from an email):
<br>
<p><font size=-2>Okay, in (dis)honor of Windows 95, here's what parties
for other operating systems might have been like:</font><font size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
DOS: Everyone sits on hard chairs, with nothing to eat or drink, and talks.
No one laughs.</font><font size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
Windows: Lots of beer, but it's flat; lots of food, but it's cold; and
the fire alarm keeps going off so you have to go out and stand in the street,
then go back in.</font><font size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
Mac: A catered party where waiters take care of your every need, but if
you ask for unhealthy food they scold you and bring you a bran muffin.</font><font
size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
Unix: There's no food or drink. But there's a great kitchen, and all the
equipment you need for brewing beer in the bathroom.</font><font size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
VMS: A gigantic banquet, but the keynote speaker is so boring that everyone
falls asleep and misses dinner.</font><font size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
MVS: A nineteenth-century dinner party -- it lasts forever, has a million
rules, and you spend more time dressing for
it
than you do</font>
<br><font
size=-2>
eating.</font><font size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
Amiga: Only two people come, and they sit together all night exclaiming
about how wonderful the food is.</font><font size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
NeXT: The invitations are so advanced that no one can find the party.</font><font
size=-2></font>
<p><font
size=-2>
CP/M: Everyone sits on rocks and roasts bear meat they caught themselves
over the fire.</font></html>
