ABrooks Posted July 13, 2018 Share Nope, I just dislike the on-screen keyboard (not that I am anti- tech).It had some drawbacks as well, because it led to sms abbreviations, where ppl lft out imprtnt vwls 2 snd txt fstr.gr8!I think most of us used to type like that at some point, now I struggle to read the messages if someone makes up abbreviations like that.

Dieter ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Posted July 13, 2018 Share jap cars - indicator righteuro/us cars - indicator leftTo follow on this, most cars are designed for LHD which explains the indicators, but also the volume knob. It's always on the left of the radio! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chingy182 Posted July 13, 2018 Share I think most of us used to type like that at some point, now I struggle to read the messages if someone makes up abbreviations like that.With the introduction of WhatsApp and rendering the 120 character SMS useless, I don't have time to read any messages sent to me using that style of writing.

HappyMartin Posted July 13, 2018 Share Keyless car entry. Worst idea ever. My partners Honda makes me bats***. Get out the car and you can’t remember where the dam thing is that replaces the key. So stupid, it doesn’t even have a bloody name, we call it the key thingy Check pockets, check camera bag, check consol, check pockets again, look under the seat. Give me a dam key. Then I know where it is. In the bloody ignition!,,,, IH8MUD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMartin Posted July 13, 2018 Share I like it for the fact that i never have to take the key out of my pocket My favorite is part is if you want to turn off the car but keep listening to the radio. You have to press the off button but then the radio turns off. Then you must start the car again but not in park mode so the engine won’t start up but the power returns to the radio.

Car stopped once it was a certain distance away. Had to call wife to come with spare.was that me...because that is exactly what happened!! despite this above, I LOVE keyless car entry another great part of keyless car was when i was travelling more. get back to the airport from a long trip, you get to your car and you just open it. carkey has been somewhere in your laptop bag for 3 weeks, and you don't need to try and find it.

Shebeen Posted July 13, 2018 Share Toilet seats that don't stay up by themselves, because the cistern is too close to the wall/bowl whatever. So if you're standing there for a pee, one hand is required to hold the damn thing up. installed by either:* a woman plumber (if such a thing exists, can imagine the G-strings they wear to work)* a male plumber who needs to hand in his man card eddy, JohanLotter, IH8MUD and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
