TICTH the manufacturers of certain clock radios, who designed a machine which will only show the radio station, not
the time, when the radio is on.
I know what station I am listening to as I get ready in the morning. I need to know what time it is!
I have taken the silly thing back to the shop for a refund, which I got - but four members of staff couldn't understand why I thought there was a problem...!

TICTH the company that manufactured my dehumidifier. Some units manufactured by this company have been recalled because of a fire hazard.
I went to the manufacturer's website to find out whether my dehumidifier needs attention. The site asked for the model number, which I gave, and the serial number, which I did not know.
I went to the basement with a flashlight that needs new batteries, and tried to find a serial number on the thing. I found lots of things, including a wiring diagram, but no serial number. I will buy some new batteries tomorrow and try again. BTW, I have to kneel on the basement floor to examine the labels. I am seventy-nine years old and I need this like I need a hole in my head.
I unplugged the dehumidifier. I had planned to do it in a week or so anyway, because the humid weather is over. If I don't find the serial number, I will wait for the manufacturer to contact me personally. I'm pretty sure he will, because he would have a legal liability if that thing started a fire. I'm in no hurry; I don't need the dehumidifier until next June.
I have much better things to do with my time than deal with this kind of aggravation. ![[Mad]](angryfire.gif)

Cilantro, coriander with its long stringy buffalo turds flavour combined with yak vomit, soap and tinfoil. And the stewed pudidiots who think it belongs on pizza.

TICTH the "Park Here" thread.
There was I, quietly perusing the said thread, when my wife arrived home somewhat upset. She had scraped the side of the car while parallel parking next to a wall.
I did the usual male thing (After all, my "baby" had been damaged), but then calmed down as I saw the funny side of it. Somebody up there must have been laughing...

According to some foodie expert in the Huffington post, cilantro is the most polarizing of all popular foods. I like it, but it seems some people just don't have the right taste bud setting for it. No Prophet is more to be pitied than scorned.

TICTH: supermarket employees selling wine. Or not selling wine. I tried to buy some yesterday at Sainsbury's for a friend's housewarming, and was not only refused but actually shouted at, by a woman who clearly believed I was a teenager with a fake ID. I suppose that's flattering in a way, as I'm in my twenties (and unfortunately look quite a bit older, it's a combination of the permanent five o'clock shadow and the thinning hair), and a gainfully employed university graduate. But it's ridiculous. The same thing happened to me last year at M&S, where I had two forms of photo ID issued by two different government departments (in this case the manager decided that I probably wasn't lying about my age and that at that one of my ID cards was acceptable, although she scowled at me and said that the other, which not only has my date of birth and a photo, but also finger prints, was 'obviously not acceptable').
I'm never buying wine or beer from a major supermarket again. They're more convenient than the local wine merchant, but I've never been treated that way by the wine merchant. And, here's the clincher, the wine merchant actually clearly cares about not selling to 'problem drinkers' and has a detailed, publicly available, policy on the issue that includes things like not selling alcopop or cheap cider. Do Sainsbury's sell alcopops and litre bottles of cheap cider? Why, yes, as a matter of fact they do. Whence, then, their sanctimony?

I was once asked for ID in Sainsbury's when I was aged 60 so I asked if a bus pass would do!
I think the manager had insisted that everyone be asked for ID because all the students were back for the new academic year - long queues buying cigarettes once their loving parents had driven back home.

That's hilarious! It does seem that lots of people complain about Sainsbury's and M&S (maybe Tesco as well, but I've never lived near one). In fairness, I've never had a problem at Waitrose. If I were to summarize the problem, it's that Waitrose (and the John Lewis Group in general) still treats its customers like customers, i.e. people whose custom they value. I don't live near a Waitrose these days, but I would be tempted to do all my shopping there if I did (as I have in the past, even though I couldn't really afford it).

The fucking bastards who arranged the destruction of 10 lime trees this morning, as if the addition of an extra lane is going to improve an already dysfunctional roundabout, and as if they couldn't have taken the space for the extra lane from the site of the new and deeply unwanted shopping 'centre' if they weren't either greedy or incompetent or both. Were the trees 'technically' in a conservation area or not? Well, let's not kid ourselves by pretending it would have made any fucking difference either way.

I can't resist making the observation that the two Waitroses I know are in areas with a high percentage of elderly people - I feel very young when shopping in either of them.

McAfee's automatic renewal process which has got more automatic in that it didn't advance warn me it was going to take my money in the wee small hours of Sunday morning (a month ahead of the due date), from a credit card which I had carefully not updated the details of because I wanted them to contact me first. (They were very dismissive of my problem with my Asus EeePC in which the C: drive is too small to have all their flaming updates. AVG is perfectly happy to be installed on the D: drive. McAfee was rude.) And now I can't remove the updated credit card details from my profile - so I've emailed them.

Two things:
1 - Is McAfee the antivirus software package a horrific space-sucking misery like it looks to be? Do people pick it purely out of spite for the horror that is Norton?
2 - McAfee the company no longer has any connection to McAfee the person. But, frankly, I suspect that even a freakshow of a person like that would still make a better product than MAV.

It is a funny bit of evolution, that. The optimization for the parameters of a passenger car seem to have swung hard into realm of considering maintenance/service as a tertiary concern at best. I often wonder if an "open source" alternative passenger car with more focus for hands-on aspect might have a significant market.
Probably not.

It's a race to the bottom. We demand better mileage, which means a lighter car, which means more things crammed into less space.
It's kind of like the way we fucked ourselves with air travel. If all that matters is low price, that's all you'll get.

With all due respect, it's simpler than that. They now design cars specifically so that you have to take them to a main dealer to get even basic stuff done, like, indeed, changing a headlight bulb. It's all to do with making money. Why else would a socking great big BMW have to have the front bumper removed to have the aforesaid bulb changed? I rest my case.

Sorry to continue the motor vehicle theme but:
TICTH drivers.
WTF is it with you this week? Rain or shine, cutting in, not looking, not signalling and best (worst?) of all three of you racing around a large roundabout that has traffic lights and generally being arseholes.
I hope you improve today because we have a 200 mile trip across country, mostly on motorways. Oh for a RPG, or failing that a potato cannon.

The 2-litre glass jar of fermented milk that exploded in the refrigerator last night.
Now I have to admit that, after getting out of bed to help mop up the mess, whilst trying to avoid getting shards of glass in my feet, hands and knees, I did admire the extent of the effects achieved. Not only did it manage to get spray on both the top and bottom of each shelf, but also the sides, back, and even inside the drawers. As the door had been slightly open at the time, it sprayed through the hinge crack onto three separate walls up to 2.5m away. It also settled into the seals, hinges, ventilation louvers, and seeped along the floor underneath the fridge.
I expect this weekend I will have further opportunity to reflect on the thoroughness of the coverage while laying on the floor disassembling and scrubbing the trim and hinge assemblies with an old toothbrush.

TICTH Tea-publicans. They are the scum found on the underside of rocks found at the bottom of a medical waste landfill.

TI also CTH car alarms. Pedestrian, I know, but fer cryin' out loud, this is one of those old-school ones that goes on forever. I'm starting to re-think my position on gun ownership just because I want to shoot the damn thing till it shuts up.
Before the advent of annoying car alarms there were car horns that would get "stuck". One time, long, long ago a car horn got stuck in the parking lot of the apartment complex where I lived. It started it's very loud blaring at 3:00 a.m. on a Monday morning and continued until 6:00 a.m.!! It was horrible. I had to be up at 7 a.m. to get to work and had gone to sleep late, only to be blasted out of sleep by the damn car horn. A lot of us were extremely grumpy that morning.
