It was a recurring conversation between me and approach. The benefits of
a glass airplane. Actually, I think they got the transponder, but the
airplane was semi-invisible.

Oh. Approach control. I've had a lot of interesting conversations with
those guys. Niner seven, your transponder image is intermittent.
That's because I'm flying my stealth aircraft, sir.

Turn it off, count to three, turn it back on.
I remember the first time air traffic control told me to “recycle the
transponder”. Glad someone else in the cockpit knew what they were
saying.

Why worry about ownership anyway.
Find THE router and power cycle it (optional fuckwit at the end).

Its more of an "Im going to need you to locate my router and
powecycle it" In this case, the first I is copacetic, its a direct
communication between two individual parties, its the "my" that
irritates the shit out of me. I want to smack a motherfucker and say
"did you buy that router fuckwit? did you? no? Then its not yours,
its the companys, you sumbitch, go drink antifreeze".
Constant injections of self when representing an entity, I hate that
shit, like murderous hate.
Now the above, has it been sent to a general support desk that does
not take individual ownership of each support request, if it were an
email response, it would be a "We (the company) need you to locate
our router and power cycle it" At this point its not an individual
communication without ownership of the support request.
Self centered goat fuckers are constant self interjectors, the usage
of I's and me's goes up as the level of fuckwittery and
worthlessness increases Ive discovered (I can use that I cause Im
me, motherfucker)

telling a customer "we think you need to power cycle your router".

We, us, our, etc. You represent a fucking company, you
fucking self absorbed gits. (no offense to the people who
actually own the company, you can refer to it as whatever
you want)
Im not lashing out at anybody on this list, just having a
nervous tick day
carry on
