@PizzaPizzaLtd It won’t let me unless I upgrade my account, which I’m not doing. You can DM me though.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

Well @PizzaPizzaLtd I guess your 40 minute guarantee isn’t something you actually stand behind. Driver went to the wrong address. Showed up almost 15 minutes late. I called and was on hold for 15 minutes until you hung up. Not impressed.

Hey @Steam_Support I’ve submitted 2 requests about my account being compromised and you’ve immediately closed them without any correspondence. What am I doing wrong?

@Anthrax My wife had the hiccups and couldn’t get rid of them. I said maybe an Anthrax song will work. I played I’m Alive, and after it was over she didn’t have the hiccups. It worked!!! She disagrees, and I’m no doctor, but I know the truth.

@adamwathan Something very similar happened to me last week, yarn broke, reinstalled a million things, yada yada yada, I'm not using Yarn now.

@FreeAndSR @XboxSupport It was suspended for only 1 day, which may mean it's a very minor offence. But how am I supposed to know? Why isn't there just a simple note with the suspension, like, "he called someone fat" or "he used a racial slur"? That would give me something to talk to him about.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

Thank you @XboxSupport for making me feel like a bad parent today. You temporarily suspended my son's account, but you won't tell me why. This lead me to taking the Xbox away from him, but I don't know whether it's justified or not.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@FreeAndSR @XboxSupport I can't believe your system is setup the way it is. All I wanted was a little bit of detail into what happened. The system notifies me of the suspension, but no specific reason. As his father, I need details to determine the appropriate punishment if necessary.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@FreeAndSR @XboxSupport My son appears to have no idea what he might have done. So since he can't or won't tell me, and because Microsoft can't tell me, I am left with no choice but to simply take the Xbox away. That's a terrible way to parent.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@FreeAndSR @XboxSupport The support rep also suggested I just talk to my son, like that thought never crossed my mind. It's clear to me the support rep is not a parent.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@FreeAndSR @XboxSupport I then spoke to a support rep on the phone, but he couldn't give me any details. That does not help me as a parent. I need the specifics to teach my children what was wrong about what they did. It's not good enough to tell me they violated some term.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@FreeAndSR @XboxSupport I did that first. It just says he violated some terms. Could be profanity. Could be hate speech. Could be any number of things. What it doesn't say is the specifics. It also won't allow me to do a case review.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@SpotifyCares Thanks for the reply but I don't think that helps me. It appears that the Playlist Radio feature was removed from the mac app. This was hands down my favourite feature as it allowed me to create eclectic radio stations that aren't based on a single artist or song.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@SpotifyCares What happened to my beloved Playlist Radio on the mac app?

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@theactionlabman I need that blacker than black substance on T-shirts. Like yesterday.

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

Dear @NeillBlomkamp - I need a Zygote feature film. I instantly fell in love with the short when it first came out and I haven't been able to stop thinking about what could be. I need to know more about the creature. What are the chances this might happen?

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@SarahWojnarwsky Looks like he cancelled :(

[Adam Jackett @darkhouseca]

@ericlbarnes Great seeing you Eric. Wish we had more time to catch up. Also, sorry not sorry for the photobomb 🤣

Remember in 2014 when @BenReiter declared that the @astros would win the 2017 World Series? Yeah, he was totally right. Now he has a book about them. And guess who was mentioned on page 232? 😉
