I found using AndAlso/OrElse, all the time, VERY annoying. It reduces code readability, especially when conditioning get complicated.

Any suggestions?

    I’m fairly sure there’s no (supported) way to change the meaning of And/Or, and assuming that your code might in the future be maintained or read by other people it would be a very bad idea, you’d confuse them completely.

    If conditioning gets too complicated I’d suggest instead splitting it up on multiple lines.
    so instead of:

    If x AndAlso y AndAlso (z Or w) Then
    

    Make it something like:

    xy = x AndAlso y
    zw = z Or w
    if xy AndAlso zw Then
