Netflix needs to fuck right off

[Neversleepingever]

With it's judgy 'are you still watching' message that pops up at a climax moment and I can only see my tired, greasy reflection on the screen as I stuff the final mince pie in my mouth in an attempt to eat the last of the Xmas stockpile before I start healthy eating for my New Year's resolution.

What light-hearted, petty things in your life need to fuck right off?

Urgh I hate this message! Yes, I'm still here, and it's all your fault, you wanted me to still be here yet you seem surprised!

Self service checkout rushing me at the co op

My husband always putting the news on BBC1 HD then fucking off somewhere so when the local news comes on I just get a red screen and have to get up to find the remote. It really winds me up.

The "Are you still watching" message when my kids have had Peppa Pig on for 2 hours straight is infuriating!

I haven't learnt to be a good parent, Netflix, of course they're still watching!!

@grool 🤣🤣🤣

I agree about netflix.

Also Facebook with its occasional popup items which start "Kiho, we care about you" - they really do not care about me and can fuck right off with their faux concern. I don't want them to care about me anyway, why would I?

Netflix keeps on recommending stuff to me that I'd never watch in this lifetime. But fails to notify me when there's something new in the genres I prefer!

What’s this Netflix thing, and how is it triggered?! Not seen it yet

The fact that a face mask means my work phone doesn’t open with face recognition so I actually have to type in the code to open it.
I know, it’s the definition of a first world problem but it’s still annoying.

Neither have I!

Using Apple Pay and because you’ve used so much sanitizer goop it no longer knows your thumb print so you have to type out your code which takes at least 6 attempts. Meanwhile my debit card sits staring at me in my bag smirking saying you always forget I can do that and you don’t need a code 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Petty things pissing me off?my scales 😁😉

My tv threatens to turn itself off because of 'inactivity'.

It really rubs salt in the wound.

I have had neither the Netflix nor Facebook thing.

Using my phone to pay, it uses facial recognition but I’m wearing a mask - this has been going on for nearly nine months and the bastard phone still doesn’t recognise me with a mask on! Heap of trash.

My scales piss me off too. I have fancy ones that immediately Bluetooth to your phone 10 different ways in which you are a fat bastard. I don't really know what metabolic age is but I know mine is higher than my actual age, which can't be good. Also last year I got on them after Christmas and they said 'Your weight has changed a lot since your last weigh in. Is this Oysterbabe?'
Yeah OK, fuck off.

Huh, I don’t get this, why doesn’t Facebook care about meeeee?

@Oysterbabe you made me cackle so loud I woke up DH

I have not ventured onto the scales since mid December.

My 2 cats, chasing each other round the upstairs of the house, every fucking morning, which sounds like an elephant stampede. 🙄

When you decide to pay for a film on Virgin “on demand” which is then suddenly interrupted every 20 minutes with “sorry there are network problems in your area” or some other such bull requiring 5 minutes of faffing/switching off & on to get back to the film.
Guess what, I won’t be using that service again!

Yep

Small things that piss me off? This morning, it was the bloody cat.

We both woke up at 5am to something that sounded like a burglar knocking a tin over. I didn't go back to sleep because after DP investigated, both cats (who were apparently completely unmoving when he went downstairs) came up for purrs and cuddles.

After DP left for work, I came down and discovered the source of the noise - the little fluffy ratbag had pulled my Spider Plant over in the course of trying to eat it again and knocked the Aloe Vera plant over - it was the sound of the metal pot hitting the floor that had woken us up. And now half the leaves are snapped off.

She is now, naturally, snoring her head off in the fancy cat bed she got for Christmas and I've had to clean up Aloe Vera gloop and compost off the floor, shelf and table. On five hours' sleep.
