When every tv channel or radio station goes on commercial at the same time.

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?

When I try to QC my own email/work/etc. and instead of reading the whole thing, I edit a spot in the middle because it doesn't sound right. But it didn't sound right because I didn't read it in context with the rest of the email, etc.

I do this to myself quite often. And I'm not lazy when it comes to work, it's just trying to do too much at once.

Anyone else ever grind their own gears?

Good little review

Basically if you are ok with a decent display a ok camera and a smaller screen ( fits in pocket nicely) it’s a good phone.

I have a X now but when it dies I probably get the SE; no reason to drop a grand on features I don’t need or want.
Got a new SE about a month ago , love it!

Samantha Bee. She is the least funny person I've ever seen on TV. There is nothing positive I can say about her. It's not politics either. She's just not funny.

If anyone finds her funny here, I'd be shocked, but I'll listen. Fill me in.

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?

This new movement for every channel/network of channels, to have subscription plans. As a whole, I don't mind it, but there is no way to centralize it. I don't need every channel, but I also don't want to manage tons of different TV bills every month.

I can't agree more , its so frustrating.

As consumers we kind of asked for it, complaining about big package cable channels where we only watched a .25 of what we were paying for.

There is also a explosion of content out there being made; its overwhelming.

Four sets in the house . We have gotten rid of everything but HBO Max (it comes free with the new phones). Got rid of two boxes and are using air antennas on the two guest room TV's .Two of the TV's are smart and we down loaded an app so we got rid of all the boxes and are saving around $28 dollars a month.

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?

It's annoying AF when I'm already paying for a cable package, and some channels want you to pay extra for their streaming app.

This is what worries me about the new deal with Amazon and the NFL.

The Thursday night games will most likely be included with a Prime membership... but a Sunday Ticket like package is definitely going to be extra.

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?

When you have weird, random vivid dreams that wake you up, and you can't fall back asleep. Wasn't trying to wake up at 5:45 a.m. on a Saturday.

Yeah that's definitely a thing. It can be a brutal cycle since a lot of people drink due to anxiety, only to be left more anxiety ridden after drinking.

How to deal with "Hangxiety"
