[Electronics-talk] for keurig coffee brewer owners, the keurig 2.0

Sat Sep 5 00:44:38 UTC 2015

Saying that someone who has a Keurig coffee maker and asks a question 
about it on this list is "obsessed" and tossing out phrases like 
nonsense and over rated is criticizing someone. Going on about how your 
preferred way of doing something is so much superior to someone else's 
way of doing something is putting them down.

Someone will have to explain to me why there are people who have to put 
down anyone who does anything differently than what they do or uses a 
different product than what they use. I don't have a Keurig coffee 
maker, and I'm not currently interested in getting one, but it wouldn't 
occur to me to respond to a post on Keurig coffee makers. I'd just hit 
the delete key and move on.

Ditto for the thread on this list earlier about BARD. Just because 
someone uses BARD and is bothered by the fact that it's been down for a 
few days don't mean they're freaking out. If you're not interested in 
something someone else it asking about then just hit the delete key and 
move on. Don't use it as an excuse to preach to the rest of us on how 
your way of doing things is so much better.
