What's too complicated for you?

[numbnuts]

Today every bloody thing you buy has a large complicated instruction manual
I've just bought a camera the instruction manual is 96 pages long, if I wanted to read I would have bought a book instead all I want is to take a photo

 

[snakehips]

....... the instruction manual is 96 pages long

But only about four of those pages will be in English surely , which is very helpful if you are learning one or more of the other 23 languages !

Calculus. I just bloody hate it. I'd like to partially integrate Newton's face with my fist.

You would injure yr hand.

Back on topic - What I find complicated is relationships with family etc.

If friends, acquaintances say things and I disagree with them, or if I am not sure what they mean, or if they seem to contradict themselves, we can still have an discussion about it. Relatives seem to go ballistic if I do the same sort of thing. Relatives cannot accept an alternative point of view.

Ditch 'em.

I did this and it's made life a lot less stressful.

Modern taps and hotel Showers...
Why are they so complicated to operate?

I think you might be are right.

I will not bore you with frighteningly small details of what my sister-in-law tries to argue with me about, on the few occasions I see her. I refuse to get into an argument with her, I state my opinion politely and calmly and this seems to make her even more mad.

Mountain Bikes.

Don't know how the groupset heirarchy works, where the deuce the cables go for V-Brakes, and why it all has to have different mechanical advantages, over lock nut distances etc to the stuff I HAVE IN THE PARTS BOX ALREADY.

This week has been a bit of a learning experience. And something of a trial for the lads at my LBS.

What you up to Mr Secret Squirrel ????

That's brought me out in a cold sweat, you'll be mentioning thermodynamics soon or transistor design and flip-flop gates and other equally nightmareish stuff.

Structural Chemistry and Magnetism. I got around the subject by getting four pints down me at lunch and falling asleep in the lecture.

Wait until you get onto Analysis!

 

[Night Train]

String theory.

I mean, plain or hairy; how can that be so hard?

You'll like this then in New Scientist - Cats fail to grasp string theory!


Most forms are too complicated for me. Despite being able to grasp string theory I struggle to get past the name and address part of most forms.

I get on well with the in-laws, it's my own family I can't stand.

[Edit] My Sister in law can be pretty annoying though [Edit]
