Microsoft Is Ending Internet Explorer, And We Aren't Nostalgic.

7.45 AM: Mail from Indiatimes Editor

Guys,
Microsoft might kill Internet Explorer.

8:00 AM: Mail back to the Indiatimes editor

Cool.

Do a story¡­ Something nostalgic on it?

9.15: Mail to editorial team

Guys,
Are you nostalgic about Internet Explorer? Wait, what the hell did I just write?

And then an editorial meeting was called. This is what we remember from this morning:

¡°What do you mean, get nostalgic about Internet Explorer?¡±

¡°What¡¯s Internet Explorer?¡±

¡°How can I get nostalgic about something I don¡¯t remember?¡±

Guys, the editor wants nostalgia. We¡¯ll have to make some shit up. Think!

This is what happened next.

9:30: Email to Indiatimes IT Helpdesk

Hi we need Internet Explorer. Right now.

WHY? Don¡¯t you guys remember when Internet Explorer crashed last time and how you reacted?

At 10.30 AM, we had enough coffee in our system to be ready for Internet Explorer.

We double clicked.
A moment later, one of our employees had a literal breakdown:

Someone who had walked this road before, immediately attempted to download Chrome, because that¡¯s the last thing everyone does on Internet Explorer before forgetting about it.

Eventually, we retired Internet Explorer from our hard drives in the most honorable way possible.

And this is why we apologize to Indiatimes readers - we have literally no words to describe IE.
