Trying My Patience

Things that make my patience wear thin

About

I'm not overly cynical or critical. The surrounding world just repeatedly fails to meet my standards and expectations.

Websites claiming to offer an “Enhanced download experience” - you are trying my patience.

There are sites out there actually telling you that they can give you an “enhanced download experience“.

I accept that I as a customer can be offered an enhanced shopping experience, at least in a physical store. (Remember those?)

Walking the aisles filling my shopping cart, standing in line, paying and choosing between paper or plastic, may not be a rewarding experience. Nor is it on that I will put on my resume or tell my grandkids about. But is does technically qualify for an experience. And hence there is some room for enhancement.

A download experience on the other hand, means one thing and one thing only - waiting!

And unless you - while I’m waiting - are giving me an exotic full-body massage and making me a decaf, non-dairy, nutra sweetened mochachino, you are not enhancing my download experience.
