8. Not sleeping.
Talking of which, had to get up a bit earlier than usual this morning so set my alarm for 0640. Hit snooze twice and got up at 0700. Had shower, woke my daughter up, went downstairs. Kitchen clock said 0615. Work phone said 0615. Went back upstairs, retrieved my phone, it said 0715. 5 minutes later it returned to the proper time and then at 0640 the bloody alarm went off again. Last week it spent a good part of the day claiming it was early in the morning of 2nd January 1970. Think I may need to rethink what I use for an alarm in the mornings.

4. That dumb fat green DOWNLOAD button that is no way related to what we intend to download.
Starting to think people post kid pics in their profiles because that was the last time they were cute - Jeremy.
I want to shank the person who thought that one up. Then I want to doubly shank the person who approved it. :mad: Just yesterday I was setting up my new laptop and grabbing tools to mount ISOs. I wanted the basic version (aka free) so went to the site, and just to the right, up on top, right under the name of the software... "Start Download - Free Version". Sure enough, advertisement. Back, scroll down, and I see the real link, in a green button about a quarter of the size of the ad. "Download". This is not the first time this has happened to me. :sigh:

I have to admit this made me giggle. Haunted phone?

10: If a news article contains a list of two items with a comma instead of an "and", it is left unread, because it is obviously written by a cretin who is best ignored.

Sounds like your phone went back to the future. Or something like that. :rolleyes:

Nice "feature"
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Newspaper sites you actually pay for blocking your comments. (Unsubscribe - You are free to leave at any time but would you tell us why? - UNSUBSCRIBE!):mad:

Yep. I never read emails with the words 'white paper' in the title. Straight ... to ... the ... trash ... and ... blocked.
I'll second that one! Why would I read white paper anyway? :laugh:

3: News sites that won't let you view a news report without first viewing an ad. (1) NOTES -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1: I never watch the ads - that is why I quit watching your TV offering you dorks.
4: News (or any website) that requires sign-in or "create an account" just to read the story.

I agree, all whitepapers can be summed up by saying "here's a problem I've just plucked out of thin air, and here is the solution to that problem which happens to involve you buying my product!"

Exactly! I hadn't thought that far but now that you mention it, that's right! Heh... I just throw them in the "white colored" file 86, don't even look at them! ;)

My favorite part about that one is the apparently non-functional "Do not remind me later" button.

9. captcha image which are some weird font and so blurred that you need 3-4 attempts to get them right.
.AK.
That's how I found out that I'm actually a machine. Life is pretty cool now, it's like I'm living in a Philip K. Dick novel.
