There was a list of random stuff we needed around the house and we decided to wait until Amazon Prime Day to see if any of the things we need would be on sale. They weren't. It appears Prime Day is just an excuse for them to push 10,000 Alexa-branded products and a selection of random crap on discount. It's definitely not a site-wide sale. I've never shopped on a Prime Day before so I did not know that. Also their website wasn't usable for much of yesterday.
According to the serial number this product may have been manufactured March of 1992.
the landlords are... anti-spending
Your washing machine would fit right in with my old appliances from my first apartment. Everything except the fridge was from the 60's. The stove frequently electrocuted me, the oven coils broke and the A/C broke whenever it got above 90 degrees (which is every day in summer in Missouri).I find it hilarious that their response to Prime Day sucking for years is to just make it exclusive to Prime members. Now it sucks for an exclusive group instead of just everyone.
My washing machine has been in its death throes for two years. Each passing month came with slightly reduced capability and more and more conditions for use (like not being able to put any heavy linens in it anymore). Use of a washing machine is covered by my lease but the landlords are... anti-spending, to say the least. I've been dealing with it and trying to keep it going for as long as possible, knowing full well that a fight would be on my hands the second I let them know the appliance was crap.
Today, I no longer have a choice. The drum is seemingly kaput, and tore itself off its bearings so heavily that it dented the back of the machine. You have to physically hold it in place for it to spin now. I am sure the landlord will resolve this issue promptly and without complication, seeing as the washer model is 26 years old.
Are you really going to say that Seinfeld is unfunny?The "middle-aged man speaking emphatically into a camera inside an automobile" is my least favorite media form and possibly the worst media form in all of history.
We call it the ‘free’ market.It's amazing how slum lords manage never upgrade anything and then get to keep the security deposit of whatever sucker is renting from them when (+6 months or so) the appliances finally crap out and have to be replaced with bargain models.
Maybe they'll upgrade you to a 1996 model!
The overlap between people who scoff at the socialist magic money tree, and people who believe whole-heartedly that a magic money tree and it's a two-bedroom flat in Croydon, is at this point about 1:1.I am shocked, shocked, to hear this!

Clearly, what Corbyn needs to do is buy up a bunch of old council bedsits, and the NHS will be set for the next century.
You cannot tell whether I am being sarcastic, you mean.I can't tell if you're being sarcastic.
I never watched it.cardgame said:I'm boycotting everything related to jerry seinfeld after bee movie.
I was making a reference to the facts that a) there is a trope called Seinfeld is unfunny, and b) he had a series called ‘comedians in cars’ or something like that.
It wasn't a reference to comedians in cars or Seinfeld. There are just a lot of videos on social media where dudes talk emphatically into their phone cameras while in their cars, and I don't understand why some of these videos seem to get tens of thousands of views.
Well, if we're looking for a rough and ready analogy, Corbyn is Sanders, naturally, the NHS is Medicare, a bedsit is a studio apartment, and Croydon is... New Jersey? Maybe? Honestly, I know piss-all about London to begin with, asking me to reframe London in terms of New York is like asking a tapeworm to do advanced calculus. I was going to say Finnieston, but that would really be shooting over people's heads.*stares dumbfounded as references go over his head*
So how about that global warming, eh? That's always good for a rant.
Here's a summary.Never heard of this "prime day" before

So far the only thing they've offered me that I might possibly use is a pressure cooker.There was a list of random stuff we needed around the house and we decided to wait until Amazon Prime Day to see if any of the things we need would be on sale. They weren't. It appears Prime Day is just an excuse for them to push 10,000 Alexa-branded products and a selection of random crap on discount. It's definitely not a site-wide sale.

Apparently it's something only Amazon Prime members are allowed to take advantage of.Never heard of this "prime day" before
