LabattBlue Posted June 2, 2022 Author Report Posted June 2, 2022 I love my T-Mobile cell phone plan and service, and the T-Mobile Internet is a thing of beauty. That being said, their overseas call center is terrible, and there is no option to be transferred to someone in the US. THEY SUCK!!!! If you have any issues, I would just go to the local store and let them resolve it whether it be billing or technology.
Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 9, 2022 Report Posted June 9, 2022 Is it so hard to stay on the correct side while walking on a sidewalk. Also if you're the size of the sidewalk, then you and your fat family don't need to walk side by side. 1 1

shrader Posted June 9, 2022 Report Posted June 9, 2022 There's a slightly different version of that and it involves any store that has a pair of doors at their entrance. People will only use one side. I've seen small lines build up outside while people wait for anyone coming out. There's two doors people! Use those things you have called arms and just open the other one. I've walked right past these lines, opened the door and walked right in. The look on their faces, you'd think I just invented the wheel. There is one slight hiccup to this though. Certain places will keep one of those two doors locked. I feel like this has to be a fire hazard. Just picture being in a rush to get out of the place and you run into a door that doesn't move. I haven't seen him do it in years, but my brother would always unlock that second door anytime he came across one. And come on people, if there's someone behind you, hold the door for them until they can grab it. 2
LabattBlue Posted June 9, 2022 Author Report Posted June 9, 2022 Go to a cemetery and clean up a loved ones gravesite. Wipe down the headstone, trim around it, plant a flower or two….or leave some artificial flowers. Especially in the older cemetery’s, it is sad how neglected some sites are…and the groundskeepers seem to barely have time to do little more than mow up and down the rows…no time to even weed whack.

I expected it to be left just like driving, but at least in London it wasn't a rule, even outside the touristy areas. Related: runners who run on the left side of multi-use trails. I get why you do it on the road with cars, but on a trail we're all going similar speeds. Makes for dangerous interactions if there are walkers on the right edge, a runner on the left edge, and bike traffic coming the other direction or passing. Double-related: groups of walkers on trails walking 2-4 wide and taking up the whole thing while simultaneously being oblivious to people around them.

Lots of people do that around here (walk/run on the left on the trail). Drives me nuts. There are signs that say to walk on the right but people don't pay attention.
shrader Posted June 9, 2022 Report Posted June 9, 2022 Ahhh crap, just found a bunch of japanese beetles going to town in my backyard. It's time for a bug killing spree. 1

I've been there and don't remember there being any problems, but that was like 25 years ago, so whatever.
FogBat Posted June 9, 2022 Report Posted June 9, 2022 (edited) So gas prices are at an all-time high. I get it, and so does everyone else here. What baffles me is that the ones who are complaining the most are the same people who have the worst driving habits - including truck drivers - when they have no one else to blame but themselves but who still insist on blaming others for “impinging” on their blank check finances. Needless to say, they’re also the very same idiots who help keep accident attorneys in business, since they all must have taken lessons from the Pelle Lindbergh Driving Academy. I don’t feel sorry for them at all. Edited June 9, 2022 by FogBat

The stolen items are tallied and the cost is passed on to the consumer. This is an embarrassing lie. I’m not sure if you get your facts from Memes, Adam Carolla, Facebook videos or Fox News, very but doing even minor due diligence on such a claim would reveal that it’s a lie.

Also if you're the size of the sidewalk, then you and your fat family don't need to walk side by side. I never thought of posting this, but I can't agree more. When I am walking anywhere, if someone is walking toward me (honestly usually 2 females) who are walking side by side, they just WON'T move when you walk by them. I usually get over to the right side of my sidewalk, and when I walk with my wife we get to the right and one of us goes in front of the other, but usually when 2 women are walking at me, they usually refuse to stop walking side-by-side. To the point that when you pass them, you usually bump shoulders or arms.
LabattBlue Posted June 16, 2022 Author Report Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) Just wanted to say after all these years, I still enjoy complaining, and reading others complaints. That being said…contractors of any kind who can’t even be bothered to return your calls suck and I hope someday their businesses fail. How long does it take to say…I’m too busy but keep me in mind in the future. Edited June 17, 2022 by LabattBlue 1
