What small and stupid thing has recently gotten your goat?


Mine would be spell checks that never give you the right suggestion for what you want even though you only barely misspelled something.

Daily Challenge is "score at least 5 on a Photo quiz". I've played two for 10/10 and Challenge isn't marked complete. Thank you.

Did you play Photo Matches? They don’t count for this challenge

Photo Matches seem to be in a rather odd place among the types of quizzes. They don't count as Match Quizzes for some things, but then they don't count as Photo Quizzes either for other things.

It's because they're relatively new. I think some of the anomalies have been pointed out and are probably on Terry's 'to do' list, which is always a long one.

rupert774, thanks for the road map to the 'customize your page' section. I found it. Now, if I can just remember to use that path next time I get the New Quiz Challenge...

Just now played Photo Mania and the one photo used was Arizona cactus to represent learning how to have barista skills in Texas. This should be changed to be more accurate.

Not site related, but people in shared spaces who are totally oblivious to everyone else.

Showering at the public pool today, a woman was in one of the two showers when I got there. It took me several minutes to start my shower as I had to wait for the person before me to finish. I took a quick but still thorough shower, as someone else had come in right after me. I finished, by this time three people in line, took several minutes getting myself together to leave the shower area, and that first woman was still happily soaping herself.

If there are people in line behind you waiting to use whatever it is, you have the right to take the necessary time, but please don't dawdle.

The same word (rocket) in Crystal Ball twice in less than 24 hours, when there are literally millions of available words to choose from.

When you buy a nice present for your Pet, which they ignore, and play with the box!

Going for Point Precision is its own annoyance. Missing it by 2 points is a new level of irritation.

Just missed out on a perfect score on the Monster Quiz because my Google search for what type of triangle is on the flag of Djibouti, which quoted from the Wikipedia article on the subject, told me it was an isoceles triangle when in fact it's equilateral. Opened the Wiki article, and it says "isoceles" in one place, and "equilateral" in another.

The perils of allowing open editing!

Spelling "Iceland's captial" in the Fill In the Blank game. I can say it; I can spell it properly very rarely!

Send a CN for that one - that's not appropriate for a FITB.

Hitting "play" or "submit" and getting a pop-up advert.
