Hey @British_Airways - quick issue that your helpline couldn't resolve: after logging in, I agree to the new T&C (I get asked every time), but then I get a blank page when I try to go to my account page. What gives?

@SAS Gave up after waiting for 3 hours and 10 mins. A properly designed webform would have solved this. #flysas #fail

[Christian Stefansen @stefansen]

@SAS, our outbound flight got canceled so we’d like to request a refund for the whole itinerary. Been waiting on the phone for 2 hours and 57 min and website doesn’t enable a request for our statutory right to a full refund. DM me?

Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume?

@dontrolle @Spotify But why stop there, when there is also this masterpiece: https://t.co/4rqCWFxS4v

@drjohnhawkins @AliceLascelles @DermotSugrue @BreakyBottom_ Given that it was Halloween you should have served something really scary like White Zinfandel.

Amazon gets a little confused about your reading habits after you have children...

@palmin Nogen havde fortalt hende at “det kan ske det kniver med gaflerne”, men hun troede at “det kniver hvis nogen har gaflet skeerne”. I’ll see myself out.

Extremely important that we remember when Bayes theorem applies these days.
@lhaagaard, this is the missing bit from your July 24 piece in Berlingske.

NEW: people worry when they hear "40% of hospitalisations are fully vaxxed", but this chart shows that's actually good news.

The more people you vaccinate, the higher their share of hospitalisations, but the *total* number in hospital is a fraction of what it would otherwise be

Emails every week: “We’ve updated our terms and conditions”

Me: “Actually, I stopped using the service two years ago, so maybe include a ‘Close Account’ link?”

[Christian Stefansen @stefansen]

@Desmond_Sanders @EvansCycles They’re are really poorly run company. :-( My best advice is to pay a proper bicycle mechanic to fix it and never let the bike anywhere near Evans again (nor use them for anything else).

[Christian Stefansen @stefansen]

My collection of coffee table books has really taken off recently, so if anyone needs any tips or ideas, just ask.

[Christian Stefansen @stefansen]

@EvansCycles I've sent a DM with the order number, but your support has been given me the run-around for weeks now, so from here on I'd like this to happen in the open without automated responses.

[Christian Stefansen @stefansen]

@RideCannondale Do your bikes still come with printed Owner’s Manuals? I just bought a Topstone Carbon Lefty 3, but there weren’t any included.

(I know about the PDF and app manuals, but prefer printed manual when traveling.)

[Christian Stefansen @stefansen]

@RideCannondale Well, that's the problem. The dealer @EvansCycles was really unhelpful and basically said they didn't have the manuals and I should contact you. I'd just like the manuals. Could either @RideCannondale or @EvansCycles please send me a set?
