Random Irritations

People who 'reply all' to your email and say exactly the same as what you said because they don't actually read the email they're replying to!

We have struggled to get 2 guys in our group to understand the difference between reply (single arrow) and reply to all (2 arrows) for years.

About 50% of our Seniors Group still continue to 'Replay All' to emails simply (eg) showing the start time for next weeks roll up saying 'OK'. Even though the coordinator reminds the monthly in the newsletter

We had an email get sent by someone to a humongous mailing list by mistake, at least 30 people replied all asking why they'd been included, then another 20 telling people to stop replying all, because obviously they were going to be the ones to stop everyone else from doing it, rather than adding to it.

This must happen everywhere. Everyone who's been with my company more than 8 years knows exactly what you mean when you bring up the famous 'sandwiches in the kitchen' email.
 
Or when someone sends such an e-mail to a massive mailing list and then about 100 of them reply "take me off the list" and click reply to all when they do it.
These people should be rounded up, put into a field and then we can bomb the bar stewards (thank you Kenny Everett)
 
My sous vide stick has decided to die so I’ve had to do a makeshift water bath in the Ninja. Only had it a couple of years if that, why don’t things seem to last very long these days?
Because the manufacturers want it so.
If they do not sell enough they go into liquidation.
These days the longest lasting appliance in my house seems to be a tumble drier, the factory that makes them in a nearby town closed down last year.
 
Perhaps the irritation is also the twunts who upload that location and non sighting as they drive..

It's easy to tell the plastic police, the yellow doesnt reflect like a real police car and the black is easy to tell apart. They also use vehicles the police generally dont:)
They also don't use the lanes correctly all to often as well.

The Police have got sneakier in recent times and now use a much larger variety of cars.

The don't use Mitsubishi Shoguns or Landrover Discovery's down here. The traffic police now use Volvo's (V90's and XC90's), and their unmarked are some Volvo's or Skoda's. BMW is no longer sold to the Police, as apparently BMW said it was the Police's fault the BMW's caught fire.
Kent Police only have 4 traffic cars available at any time, for a county with more motorway miles than any other county.

Wasn't it also that BMW knew of the fault and didn't fix it that could of lead to deaths of officers?

BMW had numerous recall on the EGR cooler on their 2 and 3ltr diesels. My soon to be ex SIL had a new engine as a result of his EGR cooler going up in flames courtesy of BMW.
As a result of the instances with the Poilce cars (for which BMW blamed the Police for it) they closed their Park Lanesales dept that used to do all the Police and special sales.
Volvo are laughing all the way to the bank (or sadly whoever owns Volvo;) )
 
Gardening after several weeks of unsettled weather. Yeah, the weeds come up a lot easier but there’s millions of nibbly creatures feasting on my legs.
