Google's non-stop changing stupid things.

Google Photos in this case.

They changed it so that instead of having five thumbnails per row it's only four now. And, if I change it back, it no longer sorts by day. Only month. It's a regression in design and really stupid.

When hubby says he told me - but really he just thought about it and decided that meant I knew.

Yes!!! Or, even more common here, when I'm chatting with my mother-in-law and she says, "Didn't S (dh) tell you......." and proceeds to give me some pretty significant or important information that she apparently shared with him sometimes two or three weeks prior.... and I have to tell her, again, " like I've said, if there is something you want me to know you need to tell me directly, becsuse apparently in the 4 minutes between your front door and our front door everything you tell him when he's here visiting and ask him to tell me falls right out of his head

Depends on time of day. Early in the morning and around dinner time, lots of ads for cars, beds, furniture and jewelry. Big-ticket items, aimed at people with jobs. During the day, ads for meds. For old, sick and decrepit stay-at-home folks.

This is how I sort through what the programming I like to watch says about me When I stop and think about the type of commercials I'm seeing I generally realize that the programmers think I should be an 80-year-old person....

"AI" slop threads with titles that don't give any indication of the contents.

My friend spent a long time knitting an afghan with rayon chenille yarn. That yarn is known for a problem called "worming."
best picture I could find right now
I don't have the heart to tell her that all that work is probably a total loss.

People talking to me facing away from me, or while walking away. Dude, I'm old. I don't hear well. Face me. Please!

My phone's camera. Again. I was trying to take a sunset photo and it was straight up REFUSING to focus on the sky. Period. Super annoying.

I contacted the beans retailed asked where those beans I wanted to buy are from? The person on the other line of the phone replied, I don't know. I pushed on, could you check? She replied OK, then came back told me we don't know.....

Personally, there is no pride in their work and no ownership of their work. This of course causing me some irritation and I did not get the information I was looking for.

Ordered off Amazon on the 9th, the be delivered on the 15th, didn't ship until 20th, ping ponged around Colorado for 3 days, got sent to New Mexico and has finally made it in state. I needed it on the 17th, so I could have a project done by the 21st .

Like the bill you receive in the post that is due on the 18th but was received on the 21st. So I write accross the cheque (which is not going to exist by the end of the year cause they are cutting them out) Received bill today )21st) and date the cheque for that day and post it off.
