Default You Know What Really Grinds My Gears? Now with 3x more gears...

I’m old school. No way I’m paying for an iOS 15 volume wand thats going to b!tch that I need an update which requires apple login and dual certification before I can adjust my volume. Gimme a stick with a touch sensitive nib.

Alternatively, I'll give you a stick with a touch sensitive nib, all right!!

The Flames iCal schedule I subscribe to is now powered by Rocket something and defaults to reminders 15 minutes before each game. I go in and remove them and they default back automatically.

Had to actually remove notifications from my calendar app. What a PITA

One of my neighbours put up their Xmas lights and decorated an outdoor tree this weekend. Not exactly a gear grinder, because I don't really care that much, but it's pretty weird.

Seems a tad early. Maybe they did it because the would rather do it while the weather was nice?

It would only grind my gears if they turned the lights on before Halloween.

Not gonna lie. I put my lights up this weekend. Solely because it was warm. Won’t turn them on till after Remembrance Day though.

We have those and have them on constantly also. I think they look nice and the whole "wait until after Remembrance Day" is just a new made-up thing. I have no idea who decided that was somehow disrespectful or that because you were looking forward to Christmas that you couldn't also observe the sacrifice of our veterans.

Yeah, they were 100% lit up. Otherwise I wouldn’t have noticed them.

I don’t do it because I think it’s disrespectful or anything. I just don’t want the lights on for more than a month!

I got gemstones thinking I would change em up for each holiday, season, and sporting event.

They've been on 'architectural' since about the 2 month mark.

Agreed

I used to think differently but I’m of your line of thinking now.

I’ve asked a couple of veterans who have told me they don’t think that lights before Remembrance Day is disrespectful. Granted, that’s not a mathematically valid survey.

How much do those Gemstone lights cost? I think it is a good idea, just have not looked much into it yet
