I like to close Safari with no pages loaded because if I wanted to keep the page, I’d either bookmark it or save it on Instapaper if I just wanted to read it later. I like it neat and clean with a nice, fresh page each time I open it. Apple, in its infinite wisdom, has decided that if I don’t have a page I’d left open in Safari, then of course I must want to wait for the fucking Bookmarks menu every time I open it. I DON’T! Just give me the fucking blank page I left when I closed the goddamned thing and STAY OUT OF MY WAY! Jesus, that annoys me, but I haven’t found another browser I like better (except for one that had ads and no “pro” version without them, so fuck that), and in any case, links are going to open in Safari. Maybe there’s a plist somewhere that I can change the behaviour? No time to look now, but every time I just want to type or paste in an address, or quickly search Google for something, I could throw the fucking phone across the room when I get no response because the useless fucking Bookmarks are still loading. I think I have four Bookmarks beyond the defaults, and the only reason I have those is because I visit the pages so seldom that I don’t remember the URL. Fuck off, Safari–stop “helping” me!! ARGH!
