Fuck my life! I have been given a task to extract text (with proper formatting) from Docx files.
They look good on the outside but it is absolute hell parsing these files, add to these shitty XML human error and you get a dev's worst nightmare.

For weeks I told my friends about devRant and how cool it is but they were like "meh! 9gag is better" or "I prefer Facebook".

Worth the wait. Thanks devRant. Thanks @dfox and @trogus.
The stickers travelled a long distance to reach here in India. 😄4 -
