Chilies, specifically them little ****s scotch bonnets and jalapenos.

Eh? Japalenos aren't even hot!

Scotch bonnet, those are indeed very hot. I used to find the advisory usage of rubber gloves when handling them (on the packaging) fascinating.

@Dogg - completely agree. My phone updated my music player the other day WHILE I WAS LISTENING TO MUSIC.

On my nexus 7 the back button is bottom left. On my galaxy note it's bottom right. Ffs why has this not been standardised!?

It IS standardised, but your Galaxy Note is not. ALL of my Android devices have back in the bottom left. Bitchslap Samsung for being fools.

Windows8 should be able to monitor repetitive tasks (opening spreadsheets, deleting rows, saving with a dated name etc) and ask you if you want to repeat them using the same algorithym till done. Surely that must be so simple. We should not have to maintain code in VBA to perform this stuff in 2013.

True but every now and again you get one that while not hot when eating it burns the skin, I have no idea why but it always catches me out

I never allow my PC to update itself between service packs.

A standard is no good if it's not enforced. Every Android device I've had has had back on the left except this (otherwise flawless) Note.

For example people with a one trillion point score on angry birds or people who are 19,000 under par on super stickman golf 2

Could've been on Bargain Hunt but had to turn down the nice BBC woman as I'm on holiday on the auction date. Ho-hum, maybe next time.

If there's anything like a first world problem I guess this is it...

That you can't block writers on this forum. Admin and mods, fine. But writers? I've never blocked anyone in 7 years on here, but I've had enough of one kernt.

Threading. Possibly the only programming topic I've been introduced to so far that makes me just want to bury my head in the sand and pretend doesn't exist. Probably doesn't help that my introduction to it this year has been in a very "sink or swim" manner on a module that I've grown to dislike.
