I've switched back to Internet Explorer

I've given up. I have used Opera for years, but it tends to randomly lock up the entire PC for 5 - 30 seconds at a time (happened on three different computers). I haven't used firefox in years, but I still read stuff about memory issues there. Chrome makes me feel like I'm being watched so I finally switched to IE 11, and I'm actually pretty happy with it. I installed adblock plus and things seem to be going pretty well after a couple of weeks of use.

Where do I turn in my nerd card?

Explain. Because I would consider switching to IE if that is the case. There are still so many sites that doesn't work on Chrome/FF and needs to be opened in IE.

Adblock works, the speed difference between IE 11 and Chrome isn't appreciable and everything works in IE. I see no reason to use anything else.
 
2% or 1% is what i drink right now. whole is drinkable as well. skim is disgusting. it tastes like the fat has been burned right out of it and tastes like inflammation. not like it has no fat but like you can taste the fact it was removed. grass fed raw whole milk is what i am thinking about getting

The convenience of everything being stored at Google makes me stick with Chrome. Otherwise I was using FireFox the other day for some website testing and was rather impressed with its speed. I use IE at work, because well thats what is needed for most customer portals and such.

I regrettably dropped Opera a couple years back too. It used to be fast but now it feels bloated. I always felt FF was bloated and it had the memory issue with too many tabs even after you close them. I am on Chrome now but for some reason my start page changed on its own today to most-frequently-visited and the fix for it is no longer in the chrome settings which is how I fixed it months ago. WTF??? I liked the big icons for installed apps (google play music, maps, gmail, youtube, etc.)

I got mouse gestures working in IE. But I am missing form-fill (not working right) and lastpass integration at this point. And a custom start page.
