Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Phone means I want to talk to a person
If there's a chance I can get through the full process without talking to a person, I will take it--that's optimal. But voice recognition is not good enough, and I don't want to end up yelling the same thing over and over into the phone. So I'd rather guess the right key combination to get where I need to, rather than explain it to someone and have all the stupidity that often incurs.
What drives me nuts is when you have to give all sorts of information through the VR system, and then when you finally get to a person the first thing they ask for is all the same shit.
Yes, that's annoying.
Suzi, I'm pretty sure that when I was K-Bug's age I forgot to give my mother my new address and/or phone number a few times, just because it slipped my mind and I was used to Mom always knowing where I lived without me telling her.

Yeah, VR or not that makes me nuts. I am CALLING from the phone number associated with the account! I just gave the computer my account number! Christ.
The guy in front of me on the train has round plastic hoops, about two inches in diameter, in correspond big holes in his ears. Is there a term for that?
grabpoints?
Spacers, I think.
They're called gauges. I don't understand them at all.
I don't know why, but I'm tempted to see if the skin around the hoops is ticklish.
Gauges. They sort of remind me of those lip stretcher things that used to be pictured in National Geographic.
