FUCK YOU.
Shit should be automatically exchanged with an option of yes or no. Once again we all pick up the slack for these ass holes. I'M NOT A PROGRAMMER!!!

Revit - Consistently Over-promises and Under-delivers. Buy Buy Buy!!!
The Autodesk Revit team seems to think that we, the users (Architects, Engineers and others in the industry), ought to know programming language and software development at the level that they do (...or don't. I haven't figured it out yet). They seem to think that we don't want to be in our actual professions and would rather trouble shoot their software all day. Uh oh, here comes another one of my analogies:
Revit promises the tools to build and navigate an aircraft carrier and instead gives you maybe half of the parts, a few generic rivets that aren't quite ready for use and a welding torch with no fuel and then tells you;
"It’s the best thing out there. Look at what we did with it! You should be able to whip something out in no time. Oh, and now that you've literally payed us for this great privilege of using our parts and tools we'd like to sort of hint on a few things ...like ...well ...you're going to have to figure everything out on your own ...using this endless stack of manuals that don't really teach a process as much as list the tools you're already aware of. And we kinda didn't use any of the parts or tools we provided to you at all to create that nifty finished graphic shown on all of the manual covers so don't expect those kinds of results. Did you try looking for help on line? We don't know how to explain our tools very well. In fact we don't actually make or develop the tools any more. We just sort of buy other people’s tools, brand them as our own and then sell them as a new product line ...while simultaneously letting them sit and fester for decades at the very edge of possibly being useful. By the way, would you like to renew you're lease on Water with us? If you don't we'll double the price next time you consider it. Sorry. This might come as a shock to you since you’ve never had to subscribe to Water in the past but it's just business. It’s a simple matter of supply and demand you know. I mean it's not like we have Oceans of water on this planet."
So instead, the user ends up with some half-assed pile of garbage on a rusty barge because that's all the Revit dock would allow him a permit/code to build. They also forgot a few things along the way like the fact the boats are usually supposed to float or that the raw materials taken from the ground need to be forged and processed before anyone can use them as steel.
I get into a "workaround" or no solution scenario every single time I use Revit. This is about a $1,500 program. If you are considering a career with it, become a software developer first. That is the only way you will get the time to design and work rather than troubleshoot the software all day, every day.

Thought:
Is selling Revit the same as selling bottled water?
Answer:
Yes. But you can do more with water.

Thinking about a Revit purchase? Read this first...
If you're trying to decide whether or not to hop onto the Revit band wagon, I thought this conversation summed up the experience rather well:

Revit CAN'T import a PDF!!! LOL
LOL OMG. Seriously? I've been using Revit since like - at least 2009 and it still cannot import PDF's? Really? This has to be a joke. Am I missing something or are they actually this lazy that they can't get something like a PDF importer up and running?
WHY THE FUCK IS THIS PROGRAM SO EXPENSIVE???
It can't even import a PDF! LOL

Move > Disjoin = Copy?
"Disjoin" appearently holds the same definition as "Copy" for Autodesk. So if I "disjoin" your head from your body, it is now defined as a "copy" of your head. I suppose that makes sense since the Oxford defenition of disjoin is to "Separate; take or come apart". So I guess as a far stretch one could say they are unjoining two things, families, etc. so the one they're holding is a copy
...except that it's under the check-box options for the "Move" tool, sitting next to the "Constain" check-box. In context to these commands, "disjoin" would imply the opposite of "constrain" especially concidering that there is a check-box right next to it for "multiple" which might imply COPIES! (shaking head) The rabbit hole goes much deeper but that's enough for now. I just really feel from the bottom of my heart that

Materials Browser is complete BS
WTF were they thinking exactly? Pick a cheap 3D Home Modeling kit off the shelf and you'll find a better materials browser. SketchUp's seems to be pretty easy and it's fucking free! WhyTF is it that I can never find my materials properly. WhyTF haven't they categorized thier own materials for you? WhyTF are there absolutly NO out of the box solutions for anything in this P.O.S. program? Why am I wasting time yet again to fuck off with this shit. FUCK REVIT.
REVIT SUCKS BALLS!
After writing this Revit of course crashed imidiately after closing my materials browser. Fuck. You. Revit.
