The word "murse" (man-purse). AAARGH on so many levels.
This NYTimes article about how to carry your iPad keeps using that word. In fact, that article irritates me anyway. You would think no guy ever had to carry a notebook, a sketchpad, a laptop, or a book before. Seriously, have these men never gone to work or school?
It's a solved problem. You carry a briefcase if you're a businessman, a messenger bag or backpack if you're a student or otherwise casual. You do not need a "World War II-era Swiss ammunition case."
And the New York Freakin' Times does not need to do an entire article on it.
Yes, I'm grumpy today, how are you?

We feel grumpy because thats the first very easy option on how to be. And people around us always gives chances.. thats how I explain my grumpiness.
Agreed. I bought my husband a leather messenger bag to carry to work, and he still uses his old college backpack to avoid the "murse" comments.
A close friend is also studying interaction design. He has saved his company some money by making it easier for customers to interface with online resources.
Not sure if this is the same thing you are doing, but it caught my eye:)
