Tonights episode of "I hate people" is brought to you by the people of eBay.

List my old phone for £165 on eBay as a buy it now and watch in frustration as it attracts no interest, yet people bid on the same phones but in worse condition up to the price of over £180.

Decide to put the phone on an auction and immediately get messages saying "Hi, do you have a buy it now price?".

People suck.

Okay I'm in the middle of butt-feck-nowwhere. The area is based on an Edo era village  (1600 - 1800) and the internet is 30X faster than the fastest I can get at home. That's really really annoying. A nice surprise here considering I was expecting to have nothing all day.

I guess i need to look into repair services now...

^How many washes?

[irishexpat]

first one around a week ago.

Giles said there was no reason to wash when i got them. I wasn't really waiting to wash, but they didnt really feel dirty until a week or two ago. I have an office job.

I'm assuming it's related to the fabric snapping sound i hear when i walk. I think the rise on these bad boys is about .5" too high for me….if i pull them up they sit quietly, but my natural waist pushes them back down quickly.

Shit, man.  That sucks.  Sorry.

First day of my first 2k14 holidays… Call from work...

[seawolf]

C'mon! Don't mess with a man's time off.

I got called on my 2nd day for a 1 hour crisis call, thought that was bad. Hope you get penalty rates or something nice. You're a good man Seul!

In all honesty: I only had to "work" from 5.30 pm til 7.45, and my job's a 5 minute walk… I was, however, not able to have my beer at 6 pm 

I will have to make up for that today by drinking two beers 

[seawolf]

Well, that's not so bad. It's never really that bad after the fact, but when the phone rings, and it's work calling you back in, it's always such a shitty feeling in the moment. Enjoy your beers!

People asking us the question.  "Is the sizing on your sizing chart accurate?"

"No, we deliberately put bullshit sizing up there, so that you get pissed off when they arrive and they do not fit and we have to reship at our expense.  WTF do you think?"

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you should put that text right under the sizing chart so it doesn't get lost in here

[Giles]

Tempting….

But, when we do the new website, I will put something to tis effect next to the chart.....

Took me about 3 hours to turn this new windows phone into a fucking brick. God I hate smartphones. Apple had it down until the Micromanager In Chief kicked the bucket. Now the decent phone is an extinct animal.

^Ughh.  Really?  Did it have WP 8.1?  I've been considering leaving the Apple bubble for a Nokia WP.  I am going to wait until they release a successor to the 1020, though.

[mclaincausey]

I was having a honeymoon. Got another one and giving them another chance. 8.0. 8.1 is why I got it though looks sexy
