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?

My fitness pal sending me notifications that I haven't logged my breakfast/lunch/ dinner. No I am not going to because I'm a greedy fat cow and the calorie graph will go into red again. Fitness Pal is NOT my pal.

MyFitnessPal is the class bully then cos it ain’t my pal either.

Those beautiful bell sleeves on jumpers, tops, dresses that look so lovely but are totally impractical and catch on everything you pass and end up in your lunch.
Still love them 🤪

It's annoying when the telly suddenly announces it's shutting down unless you press enter....then there's mayhem throwing cushions everywhere, looking for the channel changer.

It's even worst when you have lost the TV remote and never replaced it, so you have to physically get up off the couch and turn the volume up one

@Tinkerbellone you can turn that function off

There's a local tv ad for Fischer future heat where the annoying voiceover woman says 'some things are more predictable than others, but I didn't predict this cold and rainy weather'. It's Scotland FFS, if that's not predictable I don't know what is! Shout at the tv every time

I heard an ad on the radio this morning for divorce lawyers - aimed specifically at men. I can’t quite remember the whole thing but it caught my ear...

Oh yes, how could I forget the dressing gown sleeve on the old door handle trick. We had to replace our old kitchen door handle to a round one as I was forever attaching myself to it and almost tearing my sleeve. A bit annoying when carrying hot food to the dining table.

The new iPhone update 'Based on your headphone usage over the last seven days, the volume has been turned down to protect your hearing'
I don't have headphones in, I'm connected to a Bluetooth speaker! This happens with no prior warning so now the whole house can suddenly hear me screeching along!

When the cellophane doesn't peel neatly off the carton in one smooth movement. Bastards.

@Justme10 this is the worst, genuinely considering dropping Apple if they don’t fix it!

They need to switch it to AirPods only

@Vitaminsss I agree! I'm I grown adult, I can control my own volume!

It's absolutely pointless as well because you can just turn it straight back up.

Yeah - my hearing is already well fucked from my teenage years when music didn't come with yer mum nagging you about the volume of your headphones... so I need it turned up now so I can effing hear it!

I don't think it would bother me so much if it was just when earphones are connected but the fact it does it when connected to a speaker really annoys me l!

The thing that gets me most about Netflix, I used to watch lots of stuff a while ago and then didn’t bother finishing it as there was always more interesting stuff. Now I think I want to have another look at it but can’t for the life of me remember what things were called and they never show up again in the list. So frustrating!

'Your weight has changed a lot since your last weigh in. Is this Oysterbabe?' Yeah OK, fuck off.

My irritation is every fucking website you open demanding that you accept cookies. Yes, I know at this stage that you're all using cookies. Telling me that you care about my privacy is pure bullshit and a big fat annoying lie.

If there's one EU rule we could all do without, it was that one.

Virgin media replacing our hub every few weeks instead of accepting the problem is their line.

You're lucky. Talktalk charged me £40 to send out a technician to tell me that the problem was at their end, nothing wrong with my hub. The technician then phones the Talktalk call centre (in the Phillipines) to ask for an Openreach technician to be sent. This conversation was on loudspeaker so I heard everything. After a few days of no contact, I phone Talktalk who said that no request for an Openreach technician had been made (I witnessed the bloody phone call!) and suggested sending another technician to my house. Presumably this would cost me another £40 to tell me exactly what I already knew. I had to persevere with the numpties in the call centre to get an Openreach technician actually sent out who reset something in the exchange and it worked within minutes. Annoyingly, the contract still has a year to run before I can ditch them.

Talk talk are complete 🤬 free installation but only if dont have to install. Wouldn't do it because I needed a new line. Wanted to run it all round my house so didnt have to put new one round the front and straight through wall.

I yelled ‘fuck off you wanker’ and “yes I know it’s unplugged, you already told me that 30 times, bastard!” to my dads falls alarm box. He’s in a home for respite for two weeks so I went round to do a deep clean and take down the Christmas decorations and I unplugged the phone line somehow and couldn’t work out how to plug it back in. The bastard thing said, at full volume “WARNING!! THE PHONE LINE IS UNPLUGGED!” Over and over for at least 40 minutes when I realised it needed to be plugged in though the internet router.
