It's just a cowardly way of trying not to lose an argument. It's no better than just saying "rattled."

Thought I could fit in a quick run to the tip at lunch so drove down there, unloaded everything and then my key fob ran out of battery and I couldn't even unlock the doors to get to my phone and ask the wife to bring me the spare set.

Spent 45 minutes walking down the road nipping into every shop to see if they sold the battery and no-one did but spotted a Jag/Land Rover
car dealership further down who charged me £16 for a £2 battery.

I'm the scumbag outlaw. You're the pillar of justice. Neither of us like looking at ourselves in the mirror. Do we have a deal?

Building my new desk yesterday and gave up after 3 hours. The instructions show 6 easy steps to successfully build your desk which I followed exactly but when I got to step 5 – I spent an hour trying to work out how I attach the legs, to no avail.

At that point, I downed tools and a few beers and eventually worked out that if I do step 5 & 6 as I’m doing step 2 – it’ll work. Today I’ll dismantle everything back to step 2 and start again.

Quite how the instructions could be so utterly wrong is beyond me. At least with IKEA instructions; they're in the right order!

Was it Amazon? Some of those instructions are properly ropey.
I had the first custom w***

Yep. As we don't have a vast amount of space I bought a desk that also converts into a shelf unit so I can fold it up and out the way when not working. It's an absolute beast to put together with some badly drilled bits I've had to use a hammer to get the bolts through. The instructions show you only need a tiny wrench and hex key...

Ha that sounds familiar. I also got a desk there - the instructions were written in Google Translate english. Luckily it was a sufficiently simple unit and I could figure it out... Decent desk now it's up though!

I built my desk. Good thing I didn't complain to their Customer Services as I'd likely have been labelled the acronym for "Customer Uninformed. Needed Training". Turns out I made a mistake in step 3.

One side for me and the other for the missus as miniOT refuses to allow anyone to use her desk in her room.

She likes to work in absolute silence and I'll want the radio on so it's most likely going to be loathing rather than loving <laugh>

Should we club together and buy OT some noise cancelling headphones to save his marriage?

People who reply to an Outlook meeting invitation with an email saying 'I'll be there' rather than just accepting the invite.

Accept the invite and don't send a response like a normal person.
