Fuck excel. The default should be to leave whatever the fuck I paste in there alone. If I want you to reformat shit I'll tell you to reformat it.

Everytime I paste something it there, the formatting (for better or for worse) stays on whatever the source was.

But at least you can use the CTRL + Shift + V to paste it unformatted (Unlike Outlook)
