ice cubes

[MikeV]

This has nothing to do with anything, just wanted to rant a little bit.
You know those half round ice cubes that are made by your refrigerator? Well, I'd like to smack the s&)t out of the guy (or gal) that invented those. They are the biggest pain in the a$$ that was ever made. You try to drink from a glass that has those damn things in it and all you get is that half round ice cube blocking whatever it is that you are trying to drink. Ends up spilling around the ice cube and all over your shirt and down your chin. I usually have a chocolate coke every day after I get home from work or the car wash and sometimes I just want to throw the whole glass at the cat, not that the cat has anything to do with it, just a convenient scape goat.
Well, there you have it, my rant for the day. Thanks for listening.

Ever think of using a straw?

How about a sippy cup.

I feel your pain, I keep an old car out back with a sledge hammer close by works for me!

I only use the ice cubes for drinks with alcohol. After 4-5 I usually spill on myself anyway, so I don't get upset when I spill on the first drink.

I agree with you Mike, its been one of my pet peeves for years. IMO its an example of serving themselves, not the customer.
Call me when you find them, we can tag team.

I just bought all new appliances. The ice maker deal has been fixed on my new refrigerator. The cubes are still half-moons, but they are rounded off instead of sides that are right-angled, curing the "ice wall" dilemma. That being said, my new front loading dryer has a chime to let me know when it is done. It's not as loud as the "key in ignition" chime on my car. Well if I'm close enough to hear that damn thing I can see that it has stopped, it has a glass door. Most of us put these things off in their own room or in the basement like mine and don't camp there with them while they do their thing. I don't know where the guy that designed that damn thing has his washer and dryer, but I doubt that it is in his living room next to the TV.

MEP, you know what they call people that drink Coke thru a straw?....
Paul, as soon as I find out who it is, I will let you know, then we can both slap the s&)t out of them.
