Sky Q? Wtf? Why did they make the UI worse than the old boxes? So much is in the wrong place or counter-intuative. Summed up by the channel change arrows and just scrolling through arrows going in different directions. Then a recent update hid your scheduled recordings in a weird place. Then to top it off it fails to record some things but then seems to download random shit. Where are the scheduled recordings now?! This has been driving me mad for days.

I could care less when those phrases are used.

Also, there's NOTHING wrong with double posting! (Unless it's to necro bump an old topic, which is technically against the rules.)

I tried on my inflatable gorilla costume today and the air pump didn’t work.
So I had to drive across town to exchange it but all they had left in stock was cows.
Now it looks like I’m going to be a cow for Halloween.

When you see the Karate Kid is on, but it’s the Jaden Smith version. F*** that.

Customers who can't read very clear signage.
Books are buy one, get one half price. It's emblazoned everywhere, including the books themselves.
"My second book hasn't come free" "It's buy one get one half price" "That's not what it says" *I point to literally anywhere in the shop with books* "Oh I'm not paying that then"
Also people demanding the more expensive book is one that comes half price. That's...not how BOGOHP works and again, it's written down on the signage.
What else? I worked yesterday and this is cathartic.
Meal deals are £3.99, not £3. Again, signs everywhere.
Drinks are 2 for £3 not 3 for £2.
An item clearly left in the wrong place by a customer does not magically become the price of the item it was left in front of, especially if a GIANT BAG OF SWEETS suddenly appears to be under £1. I don't believe that to be a complicated thing to realise.
That's better.

I don't believe that to be a complicated thing to realise. The other variation of this: "Oh, what's that? The barcode isn't scanning? Guess that means it's free then." So glad I haven't worked retail in over a decade.

When I got the gorilla suit, I joked that a coworker should get a banana suit and run away from me all day claiming I was trying to “peel” him. That whole scenario doesn’t work quite as well when I am a cow.

Yesterday was wack as hell.
I dropped half of my Wendy's order in the car.
I lost the back off one of my earrings while it was one my ear.

When you see the Karate Kid is on, but it’s the Jaden Smith version. F*** that. Related to this... I like turning on movies for background crap on the TV when I'm playing MMO's or other online crap at night. A good half dozen times this year I've seen "Total Recall" and I'm like "Sweet that's some good mindless background action!" Then I find out it's the remake and am sad.

JRPGs with unwinnable battles. Because not only do you wind up wasting resources on a battle that you have to lose, but because that then conditions you to think that any excessively hard boss battle in the game is possibly unwinnable, so you throw the fight, and get sent back to your last save space.
One of the worst examples I've had of that is the original Suikoden. I was playing it for a while (got the first four games on a PS3 Store sale for about $25 total), and by the 10 hour mark, I'd had about 3 battles I couldn't win because of story progression reasons. So, I get to a duel between a strong character, and an ally that I hadn't been regularly training, and I immediately think, "okay, this must be a story battle I have to lose. I'll try, but not that hard." So, I lose the duel, and the character is arrested. About 10 minutes later, I check the guide, and find out that not only was I supposed to win, but by losing, I have lost that character forever. For those not aware, in the Suikoden series, every game has 108 playable party characters, including the main PC, and in order to get the best ending, you have to have recruited all 107 possible allies. So, by losing that duel, not only did I lose a character, but I lost a chance at the best ending, and had to start a new file, all because the game had already tricked me into thinking that fight was unbeatable.

I hate it when people refer to dogs as “doggies.” It unnerves me on a deep, inexplicable level.
