Cathy: No! You're supposed to slide slot "C" into slot "A" before you attach piece "D"! Aack!! The little bags of screws! It says to keep the little bag of screws separate! You can't skip ahead to step #22! Irving: Hah! Watch me!! Playoff Classic: The instrution readers VS. The instruction rebellers.
Almost as bad as instructions originally written in Chinese, Spanish, French, etc., and translated badly into English are instructions that are needed and yet completely left out. And what instructions ARE provided? A lot of times they’re totally incomplete and make absolutely no sense whatsoever!!!!! :-(
Hi, rgcviper!
Sally246: My husband is about half and half. If there’s not a lot of pieces when it comes to putting something together, he usually doesn’t bother reading the instructions because it’s usually pretty easy to figure out. But if there are A LOT of pieces involved [or if the item is a brand new piece of electronic equipment he’s unfamiliar with] then he WILL read the instructions to make sure he does everything correctly. Gotta love a man who’s capable of admitting that it IS possible to screw things up royally if you completely ignore the instructions at ALL times!!!!! ;-)
Regarding the PRO account: I don’t have one but I’ve always been able to read and comment daily on Go Comics just fine without it. Is that something that’s about to change . . . get a PRO account or you won’t be able to read and/or comment??? And if you don’t provide G.C. with your credit card number [which they keep “on file”], how do you then pay for the PRO account? If that’s a change they’re definitely about to make, I certainly hope they give us enough warning so we won’t get a really unpleasant surprise when it happens!!!!! :-(
Hi, “Cathy” clan. Hope everyone had a really nice day today!
