Ah, grasshopper, just wait until you have to deal with hundreds of trackback
spams at once.

It can't handle them, unless you go get the plugin. It can't handle them
either, but it adds the pretence of trying.

Random perl module warnings dumped to the screen?  We got 'em!

And if you're really keen to see it at its best, try changing the email
address of a registered user in MT.  Look!  You can't!  They didn't bother
writing user account editing *at all* !

Still, who needs basic admin functions when you can have poorly-written
Javascript?

Hate, hate, hate, HATE Movable Type.
