I have to paste shit from reports into Outlook daily and that stupid fucking menu that pops up asking about if I want the formatting to match, that you can’t get rid of, drives me crazy.
Every other piece of software: ctrl+shift+v pastes without formatting.
Microsoft software: ctrl+shift+v does nothing, if you want to paste without formatting you have to use our menus (for some reason).
And on the subject, apparently in a Google document you can not right click to paste without having some add-on installed. Ctrl+v works fine, the context menu shows you paste as an option, but if you try to actually paste through the context menu you get an error saying you need to install an add-on. What the actual fuck?

I’ll bet I can make your left eye twitch.
Are you ready?

A “large” amount of information.
Bitch, my computer has 128 gigabytes of RAM. It’s a tiny god. The fact that I have as many as 100 cells copied to the clipboard (which is the threshold that triggers this stupid message, if you’ve ever wondered) is not even a rounding error. I’m sure this was marginally important in 1982 or whenever this was first coded into Excel, but today my computer could lose an entire megabyte of memory or maybe even ten down between the couch cushions and neither of us would notice.
There is still no setting to disable this dumbshit message.

OMG yes… I wrote a macro that copies thousands of rows and then closes a file and I had to add a step to copy just one cell before closing to work around this stupid message.
