I get it that you want to go "paperless" with your event tickets. Less waste, they can't get lost in the mail, etc.

But why MUST I download and install your app just so I can access my "ticket" on my cell phone?

You create the QR code / bar code as soon as I complete the on-line payment, right? Why can't you just send it to me with the e-mail confirmation and I can print it out or load it to my phone on my own?

True. It's absurd!

This is why we are fighting so hard for "the right to repair.

I think Louis Rossmann is doing a sterling job in highlighting and lobbying for The right to repair,

Last year on a trip to DC my Chrysler 200’s transmission went into limp mode where it won’t downshift if you press on the accelerator.  So, the first thought was to check the transmission fluid.  We opened the hood and couldn’t find the dipstick.  Looking it up online, we discovered that one can only check the tranny fluid through the front wheel well with a special tool!

WTF?

He is and even better is that he was able to get Steve Wozniak on his side too.

the tranny fluid

My mind went somewhere else there! 

But you're right, manufacturers seem to make things so hard these days.  A friend had a Renault that you could only access the headlight bulb through the front wheel arch*.

*Are wheel arch and wheel well UK to US term divergence?

Perhaps.  I’ve never heard of the usage “wheel arch” to describe where the tires (tyres) sit within the fenders (wings).  LOL

[TheZookie007]

I call it a wheel well.

Ha ha don't get me started - I keep my tyre in the boot (trunk)

On some research - maybe arch is used in North America - https://dicksautoparts.com/i-23895108-02-08-dodge-ram-standard-quad-cab-drivers-side-large-rear-wheel-arch.html

I may be using the term incorrectly - https://www.andysautosport.com/wheel_arches/honda_accord.html

I mean the part inside obscured from the outside where the wheel fits.  I still call that the 'wheel arch'.

Back on topic - people who walk slowly in grocery stores.  And jeez, just when I need to get to the cheese, someone gets there first.

Speaking of grocery stores: people who just leave their shopping carts in the middle of the aisle at random.

Or worse yet, people who park their cars using two spots in a busy and crowded day **77** you to continue looking and wasting gas (petrol for you Brits) for no good reason. Also, the assholes who park in the Handicapped spots who are not.

People who shoot porn video that can't focus on the subject matter. I have said this before, shoot the subject that is recognizable of who the subject is, don't shoot 5 inches from the skin, and leave me wondering what body part that skin is? Or even what gender does that skin belong to. Stop shaking the camera all around, its a porn video not a recreation of the "Red Alert" bridge scene of Star Trek?!?!? I don't bother watching the rest and delete it from my library.

the Handicapped spots

Apparently word is now considered offensive by many people, who prefer to say people with disabilities.

Another grocery store peeve.
I was shopping yesterday at 5pm in a store.Probably the busiest time for a grocery.In almost every aisle I went to there was an employee with a big long ass cart stocking shelves or the freezer.3 times I had to ask them to move so that I could get something.They should be doing that in the morning and not at the busiest time.It was just ridiculous!
