Hell no.

You forgot giving the fridge door a push to make
sure
it
is
closed
when
you
walk past it.



Do at work,

Don't at home because my fridge beeps like a whiny
thing
if
it's
not
closed

First thing I'd do is remove the beeper.

More fool you. Its handy to avoid not closing it
properly
accidentally.

I'd fix the magnet.

The magnet isnt broken.

If it's working, it would close easily.

But not automatically.

I'm as forgetful as they come, but leaving your fridge door
open
has
to
be
about as stupid as driving along with your car door open.

Doesn't have to be left wide open so that is noticeable.

That implies you tried to close it and failed.

Nope, just that you didn't close it properly.

Best see a doctor about your lack of dexterity.

No doctor can do anything about a lack of dexterity.

You can get creams or something.

None that do a damned thing about dexterity.

Don't they do creams for arthritis?

Nothing to do with dexterity.

People with arthritis are not dexterous.

But when the lack of dexterity has nothing to do
with arthritis, the cream will do absolutely nothing.

You said "No doctor can do anything about a lack of dexterity" - yet
most
loss of dexterity in old age is due to arthritis.

Bull**** it is.


Show detailed stats


Go and **** yourself.


Then I shall assume your belief is incorrect.

So like I said, you need a better magnet.

Wrong, as always.

You do understand magnetism?

And I understand how fridge doors work too.

By magnetism.

There is more involved than just magnetism.

No.

Yep, there is also how the hinge system works.

WD40 it then.

Nothing to do with what WD40 is good for.

If the hinge is stiff, WD40 will help.

And when it isnt, it wont.


When it isn't, it doesn't prevent the door closing.


Wrong, as always.


Then what else can go wrong with a hinge?

Cars that do that when lights are on annoy me to.

More fool you.

I might want to leave the lights on, for example for me
to
see
the
gate
or
garage door I'm opening.

Even you should be able to ignore the beeping when that
happens.

No, I cannot ignore noises.

Corse you can. If someone said they would shoot you
if you didn't ignore the beeps, you'd ignore the beeps.

But they'd still annoy me.

So infrequently that only a fool would disconnect the beeper.

Not if I always came home in the evening, left the lights on
to
get
out
and open the garage door, then got back in to drive the car
in.

With the wrecks you drive, sure. Makes no sense in a non wreck
tho.

Why would that make the bleeper more or less annoying?

No one said it did.

Then what was your point?

What was yours ?

That a beep every dark evening would **** me off.

And only a fool would cut the beeper in other than a wreck.

Anyone sensible would cut it when they don't need it.

But it isnt the only time it needs to beep.

Yes it is.

Wrong, as always.

Why else would your car beep?

Whenever anything has gone wrong.


Different beepers. Different noise.


Not anymore.


Dunno, I'm not stupid enough to buy new cars.

And usually it's a plug in thing in the fuse and relay box, so you're
not damaging the car.

But it can't beep when it needs to if you remove it.

I don't want it to beep.

More fool you.

I know when my lights are on because they're lighting up the ground in
front of the ****ing car!

Not when you have turned them on when it was dark,
had the sun come up while using the car, and then
stop using the car rather later.


I'd switch them off when it began to get light, while I was still driving.


Plenty don't, hence the reminder.


****wits.
