To whoever makes those little covers...

[oldkicker]

...that go over the battery compartment of the TV remote controls:

I'm VERY disappointed in your work.

To whoever makes those little covers that go over Game Boy batteries...... (would be nice if it would stay on for more than 5 minutes.....)

To whoever makes those little covers that go over remote telephone batteries.....I dropped my phone yesterday and it took me 10 minutes to get the batteries back in AND the cover on.....

 

[glo]

it wasn't me...but I hate the little battery covers on any kids toy...geez they make them so they always fall off and get lost. Now Bernie...what happened to yours?

 

[Kitty 34]

Bernie, my hubby seconds the complaint!!!!

 

[gina2000]

AND......to whoever made the plastic clip that jammed shut on my station wagon hatch.....THANKS, LOADS, PAL!!! No one knew how to get the hatch opened....and a whopping diagnostic fee of $160 later....it turned out to be a $.25 clip.

Nice country, America.

I dropped the remote for the kitchen TV the day I got it and the little piece on the battery cover that holds it shut broke off. It has been held together with tape ever since.

And I'd like to throw a complaint in about battery compartments that I need a SCREWDRIVER to open!!

 

[winniedapooh]

Can you say "Duck Tape"? Holds all of my remotes together nicely,lol!

 

[grinningghost]

Yeah - and to the loser that invented the plastic bags they put cereal in - thanks for nothing. I spend half my life struggling to open the stupid things!

 

[d.kurz]

And while we're at it, how about those "blister" packs, specifically the ones you get small electronics in. I got a disc man for Christmas that I still can't open!

 

[oldkicker]

Don't even get me started on opening up CDs!!!

And I'd like to throw a complaint in about battery compartments that I need a SCREWDRIVER to open!!

This would be the Mpnorail!!! I tossed my screw after the first time.

 

[gina2000]

OMG! I forgot about opening CDs! You need a stiletto for those things.

And, for the record....I dropped the damned phone again after I answered this thread. Another 10 minutes.

I can't open or close zip lock bags. Makes for a nice sandwich...no?


And last but not least......who the heck ever decided that child proof caps stop kids from getting things open? I CAN'T GET THE STUPID CAP OPEN....I HAND IT TO MY KID TO DO IT!!!!


Enough ranting for today.

LMAO - I needed that laugh gina!!!! LOL

 

[grinningghost]

Again waaay off topic - but who was the Einstein that decided IMMODIUM should be in little blister packs? When you need one - you REALLY need one - give me a bottle that pours please!

 

[bsnyder]

I can relate to ALL of these.

How about the $&$#@ battery compartments that have screws so small that you have to get out the tweezers and a magnifying glass to be able to get the screws back in?

AMEN!! I end of tearing them and they THEN will split open. URGHH

 

[Jiminy102]

You mean there is supposed to be something that holds the batteries in!!!! WOW!!!! I think I seem to have forgotten that!!!

 

[Disney Ella]

What I would like to know is where those covers go when you lose them.

 

[dianeschlicht]

LOL, OK! I have two words for you....DUCT TAPE!
