Random Irritations

My actual irritation today is:

My shower at home has decided of the 4 heat settings it has only 2 will now work. Colder than the snow covered peaks of Everest or hotter than the fires of Mordor! So your only real choices if freeze your arse cheeks or burn your balls 😡
This is the first time I've ever heard of a shower that doesn't have a way to set any arbitrary temperature you wish. I'm staggered that a manufacturer thinks just 4 possible settings will suit everyone.

Benefits of the housing we have and amazing quality they put in the build 😒

It has 4 settings for temp, Cold, Low , Medium and High.

Cold is akin to Arctic conditions, low is basically cold! Medium is perfect temperature around 35-37° and hot boils you alive like uncle bens rice! For some
Reason the Low and Medium settings have decided to die! Can’t do anything about it till Monday and will then likely take 9-12 weeks to get it sorted 😡

Just an old fashion mixer would be so much better.
 
Wasnt it if he can drive there value from 1.5 Trillion to 8 Trillion dollars?
Accepting the US Trillion is different to UK Trillion, thats still a huge increase he has to generate. Especially when you see the Chineseeating into their market and profits at an alarming rate.

BTW, I can't stand the man. Him or his cars :)
Not sure about trillions but the UK accepted the use of the US (short) billion in the 70s.
I billion in 🇬🇧 is the same as 🇺🇸.
 
I had never seen or heard the word greige until a week ago. Then I assumed it was just a made up name for the colour of a tile.
Now it's cropping up on a daily basis in the newspaper, on the radio, in audiobooks. I'm 54. It's very confusing.

Is it one of these horrid (IMO) ‘not quite/ a bit of’ colours car manufacturers seem to have decided we like. The kinda grey one especially seems perfect camouflage for driving at dusk or in fog.🙄

Aside…the word ‘dusk’…now there’s a word that’s got a certain sound and that I am thinking that I don’t hear much these days…is use of it disappearing - like the light does at dusk.

I think language in general is getting terrible. I used the word dusk at work last week and got looked at like was a leper, nobody had a clue what I was on about 🤣

Use Dusk till Dawn sensors all the time so the word is alive and well in the Electrical game. :D
