These power bars I have, with 6 sockets, and these huge plugs that take up half the power bar and you can only use 3 of them... So annoying. Can't they all get together and decide on the same shape? Who's behind this???

I made the mistake of visiting an online cosmetic site and now they're sending me videos of their product demonstrations, so sometimes when I click on that tab or, worse yet, walk unsuspecting into the room, there's a big closeup of a woman peering into my screen at me while she applies mascara. It's like someone's peeping Tom-ing me through my computer. She is smiling very friendly-like, but still...

They've invented the spork, which works just as poorly as a spoon as it does a fork - why could they invent the knork or the fnife? You know, a fork with sharp edges on the outside?

Last week I was flying home from Edinburgh in Business Class and the remote for my In-Flight Entertainment screen wouldn't work. I had to use the Touchscreen instead, which had more limited functionality.

Should I ask for extra frequent flyer miles as compensation? ;-)

I wasn't very clear here, so I suppose I should clarify that this animated ad shows up on my email home page, so I'm just not expecting it. I'm not clicking the tab for their site or anything. (Not that anyone cares... )

That brought to mind Mrs. Kravitz, although she's apparently an out-peeper as opposed to an in-peeper. (Why am I coming up with so many clumsily-formed words today?)
