Pet Peeves

Little areas (not even big enough to call towns) that have streets named after each state. Like why would anyone name a street that only 6 houses could fit on, after an entire state? As if that's not bad enough, There are several of these Identical rinky dink areas, all in a row, All with streets named after the same States. It's a little ridiculous. If you're having a conversation with somebody And mention one street named after a state... It'll take you 2 paragraphs to explain exactly where that particular street is, Because if you're driving up or down the main highway route, There are about 5 of these rinky dink areas, & all have streets with the same street name. Really makes ya wonder, what the heck were they thinking?

Delusions of grandeur? Unrealistically optimistic? Homesickness? Total lack of imagination? In a smallish town in Texas there are three streets named (I kid thee not!) This Way, That Way, and The Other Way. Sense of Humor? Somebody working too late with Jack Daniels assisting?

Pet peeve: People hating on Apple for no real reasons

#2: People always saying Apple always does “planned obsolescence”. Which is really untrue, but it annoys me so much when people say that.

I am sure they hate on apple for real reasons.
Like above reason you mentioned.
YMMV, naturally

What’s “YMMV”?

And what reason??

Well, here there were to roads, both with the same name.
One on one side of us, and we are on the other, so everyone would go looking for our house on the other road.
However, finally, a few years ago they came to their senses, and named our road something else.
Not all the maps have got up dated yet though.

I hate Apple because their phones can't take a memory card for additional storage. I prefer the way Android looks and runs. And I simply like Android phones better

Totally understandable but I will say I’ve never needed additional storage with mine.

How much storage do you have? My phone came with 128 gb and I have another 128 gb memory card in it. My coworker has an Apple and she only has 64 gb. That's pretty wimpy
