You know, it really rather bothers me.  I'm one to get angry at a lot of stuff,
primarily because no one else gives a care about things that really should be
fixed. I'll give you an example of this sort of thing where really the response
is, screw the hell off.

I won a very cool diecast PT Cruiser model at a company event recently, which
was properly decaled up with corporate logos (as a fleet management group, this
is a prized posession).  There was a note on the top of the car which says
"Don't open the doors, or the decals will fall off".  So, one of my drunken
programmers tried to open the doors, which I told her not to.

Fast forward a week later, and every day, my PT Cruiser doors were pulled open.
Eventually, all the decaling broke off completely.

Yeah, it's fun to push people's buttons.  Real fun. I think I'm going to go and
key her SUV now.

(...) Well the explanation for the inconstancy is simple. I ran out of the 1x1 with the ring. I figured the 1x1 with vertical clip was the closest match. :-) (...)
