      Yes, for sure that's what it is. But I stand by my old man rant. Stuff should just work.

        Egotistical, egocentric, pretentious people with their own head so far up their butt they can't hear folks like me trying to help.

        Ok, bud. Fine.

        Spend time and money on something I already told you will fail because I've already tried it. Roll your eyes and huff/puff when I try to offer feedback. Time to cue malicious compliance, it's clear you want a yes-man.

        I'm going to enjoy it watching you get burned and having to backtrack.

        It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

          I learned my sister in law throws absolutely anything away on it's best buy/expiration date. It could be a sealed packaged food like cookies and they are in the trash even if they are still perfect.

          The waste grinds my gears

Computers do the same thing, but at least you restart them fairly regularly for updates/installations, and in theory you won't have an uptime of 60+ days.

            Also, the fact that every button on my remote acts as on "ON" button. So if I move the remote and accidently press any button it turns it on.
            Just dump the smart functions and get a separate Roku stick or something like that.

              I've started justifying buying discount treats at the store, despite being unhealthy and against my diet, as "well, this will go to waste if I don't buy it"

              like I'm doing the world a favor to eat some cookie pie

                  Everyone's favorite day at work is when the vending machine guy dumps all the stuff onto the table that is past the use by date and it's free of charge.

                  I am not too good to eat a day old honey bun.

                      There is a chance that I have already mentioned this before but...

                      People calling me on Microsoft teams without first checking if I'm available. Literally someone I haven't talked to in a week will call me on Teams without warning rather than a quick "got a sec?"

                        That and someone sending me a message the second I log in.

                            People that feel the need to announce to strangers that they’re done watching certain sports/events.

                            I promise nobody cares about your announcement as much as you think.

                              Yes!!! Social media isn’t an airport thus no need to announce your departure.
