I just want to rant about how the NYS DMV website is fucking terrible. Whoever “updated” it made it impossible to find anything. And the font is not professional at all. Nothing is capitalized. Ugh. I hate it. Took me like 4278347 minutes to find what I was looking for. Maybe I’m just retarded, but this site doesn’t make it any easier! Rant about websites that are terrible. Haha. Or something? 🙂 ---

With all the money the DMV rakes in, you’d figure they’d hire someone with some talent. ---

I had to click through like 4 links and read half a novel to get there (well, didn’t HAVE to read the page I guess). I guess my point is, it’s a shitty layout. Could be a LOT better. I’ve designed better websites with hotdog editor waaaaay back in the 90’s 😛 ---
