A telling omission
One day, perhaps dazed by warm sunshine and pretty girls in short summer dresses, I felt the urge to contact a certain international technology company and tell them how much I liked and respected their products. No, this is not sarcasm.

After several hours of trying, I was forced to give up. It seems that there was no capability for receiving positive messages - only complaints of one form or another.

Or just sarcasm? If the former, I'm going to spend this afters contacting everyone I've had official dealings with, and seeing if I can say how fluffy they are. I need something to keep me awake.

Similarish thing happened to me
When I tried to speak to a tech support's supervisor to pass on how great and helpful I'd found him. This was met with outright suspicion and even a little fear.
