Does ANYTHING ever work right?

imemine	Date: August 2, 2005 @ 1:22 PM Does anything ever work right these days? Freaking “easy open bags” handy dandy widgets designed to make life easier---MICROSOFT! It seems that almost everything has such crappy quality control and massive marketing efforts these days that it’s always over promise- under produce. Perhaps my expectations are just too high! Like this $45 per month cable ISP…yep it’s fast!……WHEN IT FREAKING WORKS!!!

Alexsy	Date: August 2, 2005 @ 11:46 PM i'm something, at some point, has worked "right." although, that depends how you define "working right."
GeneHilbert	Date: August 3, 2005 @ 1:23 AM I agree there is a lot of fucking crap being sold..... some good some not so good. Glasses good, tooth-brush good, electric tooth brush not so good, do it yourself vasectomy kit BAD. The problem being anyone will sell you anything and everything....... and make you believe you can't live without it. Quality control is an big issue.... and computer music software is a major culprit - instead of making sure all the bugs are out before marketing and selling - they rush the product to market - then most of the time instead of fixing bugs they just add features to the upgrades. But see here is the key - we as consumers hold the cards - if it sucks don't buy it....... there is a lot of consumer product info out there - just look it. This has been a public service announcement brought to you by Gene Hilbert, Dmusic.com and BEER... .... GOOD

Alecs	Date: August 4, 2005 @ 9:53 PM the only thing that always works is waiting to die...
kingo	Date: August 4, 2005 @ 9:54 PM Uhm. Not that I should talk, but that doesn't make any sense. ARE YOU MAD, MAN!??

TameasDust	Date: August 4, 2005 @ 10:40 PM Everything works perfectly .... just not when your around
imemine	Date: August 4, 2005 @ 11:22 PM NO IT DOESN’T----I watch when stuff isn’t looking. It’s like a highway construction crew----only one small part works.
bender	Date: August 4, 2005 @ 11:38 PM no those are usually fuck ups
Veracohr	Date: August 6, 2005 @ 1:26 AM Yeah, the billing department at the cell phone company, the power company, the ISP, the apartment owner, the student loan comapny, the credit card company, and the IRS always work.
orgasmotron	Date: August 6, 2005 @ 2:56 AM i love things breaking. if everything always worked, like lets say condoms, i probably wouldn't have been born.
happyhappyhappy	Date: August 18, 2005 @ 6:44 PM sweaters
Snoogans775	Date: August 19, 2005 @ 12:25 AM clothing is great, because broken clothing is still just as effective in your head, I can't release my social pressures and make my Cubase SX 1 always link with my sound driver! but stained, half-bleached, factory reject clothing willl always work!

Woof	Date: August 19, 2005 @ 5:16 AM We have just one place in our little town, that delivers late enough for it to be useful to me. They used to be the greatest, and then a couple of years ago, their pizza started going bad... I mean, Chef Boy-Ar-Dee on a crust bad! Fine, I thought... I'll order the chicken... last year, one order came with 1/4 inch thick greasy, greasy skin... it was awful! I gave 'em a second chance, and placed another order a week or two later... for a nine-piece dinner. I got seven wings, a thigh, and a drumstick. Last winter, Mary ordered their shrimp, and it made her throw up. What's left? The gyros... which I loved... so just last night I ordered those again, 'cause they've been okay all of this time. Opened the wrappers on the gyros, and two fucking pickles fell out... and there were no onions or tomatoes in the gyros... just gyro meat, and pita bread. Who on earth eats fucking pickles on gyros?! Plus, my alternative... the drive-in burger joint... now coats the cheeseburgers in so much grease that you've got to wring 'em out before they're even edible anymore. And two nights ago, I paid $10 for 2 3/4 gallons of gas for my 20-year old 6-cylinder beater that I use to get to work and back, so I had nothing left to buy the crap double grease burgers or another order of the stinking gyros, even if I were able to stomach that. And the neighborhood deli used provalone instead of swiss on my ham & swiss. Not a reasonable substitute. Now I know what "stinky cheese" smells like, though... I guess there's a little good that comes out of every situation... but damn, I'm hungry!
Rodrica	Date: August 19, 2005 @ 6:23 AM With most white goods, computers and music equipment...they'll only guarantee it will work if you buy a 3 year insurance policy/maintenance contract which costs you more than the original product Even then...when it finally self-combusts they take it away and tell you it's beyond economical repair
AgentMGD	Date: August 19, 2005 @ 8:26 AM woof - let me know if you want a REAL gyros from Greektown in Chicago or REAL pizza without the lame sauce. okay it's early in the am and now i'm hungry!
zedsalt	Date: August 19, 2005 @ 1:15 PM In ammendment to what Rodrica said, I'd like to add a big raspberry to anyone and everyone who designs high-dollar products intentionally designed so that only a few people with special training can repair them!!! The worst instance of this I've seen so far was a Ford truck built several years back. A buddy of mine purchased one, and he opened the hood to show me a Mondrianesque pattern of gray blocks with labels like "Ford123123417-2459rgtu"...nothing that resembled an engine! I'm NOT a great mechanic, but the only thing I could locate with any certainty was the intake. Ridiculous.
Engine11RDenny	Date: September 11, 2005 @ 5:50 PM Extended warranty how can I go wrong ? And no! NOTHING ever works right it all seems to be going left
FrederikSchack	Date: September 11, 2005 @ 6:02 PM My adware seems to work, spyware too, XP no, popups functioning properly, ads blinking as usual, my USB devices acts weirdly... no... everything works normal here!
