Things that irritate you

[Halgar]

I'll keep something for many many years, eventually throw it out, only to find I need it a week after throwing it out.

That's called life! I have had things for literally decades, toss 'em and then find a use/need for whatever it was I just tossed. It doesn't help that I'm a contractor, so I tend to save "usable" lengths and pieces of material, so I've always got a sizeable stash of stuff until I don't have any place to store it, then it gets cut up into firewood or tossed into the next load for the dump . . . and it pains me every time I have to toss something.

Still not having the Cougar that I ordered on day 1 is irritating. I didn't even try to get a Pro Cat. Maybe if Schumacher themselves ever have them in stock at some point I will just pay the extra freight from the UK. With the pound falling, it might actually be cheaper. Last time I looked Schumacher was about $90 cheaper than Amain. That will easily cover shipping across the pond.

I am sure they have their reasons, but it is odd to me that Schumacher released another re-re when they can't meet demand for the last one. It would seem to be a better strategy to let the Cougar run its course before moving on to the next one. They will sell them all anyway, so it doesn't matter.

I am glad I am not a Kyosho or Tamiya collector. Those folks have to wait for ages for some kits. Here I am whining about a 5 month wait.

The search engine here because it block out the word "losi" because its too common but still searches for "team". Why?

How two assholes can screw up a small parking lot.

People get mad at me nearly daily. Even though I have an excuse to take up a ton of room in small lots. But you’re right. Sometimes I have to walk further to get to lunch or into a hardware store. And truthfully, it’s so I know I have an easy exit when I need to leave.

Maybe because Losi stuff, and by extension, Losi people, are terribly terribly common?

Don't blame me, I don't make the rules!

Do a Google search for "rc10 talk" . Use the search bar there.

It will use the Google "search engine", but only on this site.

When you sell something on Ebay in the evening and by late morning of the next day your getting messages as to why there item hasn't shipped yet?

[juicedcoupe]

When you buy two items on eBay, and you receive one two days before the other even ships.

You can't search for "RC10" either so there's that. I do have a number of Associated cars as well if that makes you feel any better haha.

Mainly I thought it was silly it'd block a brand name but not the more common word "Team"

I'm already used to be annoyed by search engines, especially when Losi decided XXX was a good thing to name their line of cars.

I'm fairly certain they did that specifically to legitimise the web searching of certain members of this forum, at least in the eyes of their co-workers and house managers....

Not specifically looking at you guys here, @THEYTOOKMYTHUMB, @RC10th or @klavy69.....
