Samsung anything, and others seem to have had my experience. The only thing of theirs I've bought and not hated was a PC monitor; but it's been used maybe 100 hours and I've had it for 6-7 years. Everything else of thiers was the pits in some form or another.

Anything from Rogue Brewery. The beer is fantastic, but I once spent way too much money on every distilled spirit they sell to share with a bunch of family and close friends on the East Coast. Every single one of them was awful. One (one!) person thought the Spruce Gin was OK. I gave them the bottle. I had reserved a bottle of their single malt whiskey for a friend that couldn't join us at the big party where we tasted all the others. He claimed it was "interesting" and not bad. For the price? Utter horse shit. I also avoid anything from CA if I can. Apparently some produce is only grown commercially in CA, but I buy Texas Ruby Red grapefruit and Florida oranges. Motherfuckers stole my Hawaiian Bonsai tree after it barely survived the drive from AK in February, claiming that there might be nematodes in the soil. The thing grew out of a lava rock, there wasn't a gram of soil on the thing. Fuck CA produce. View Quote WOW! Rogue is on my list as well. I was on a bike trip out that way and stopped there with friends for dinner. I ate half of my sandwich before I looked at the bun and realized there was fresh people blood on it (not mine). They berated the kitchen worker in front of me and made a big deal about how they were gonna see if they can comp the sandwich with fucking human blood on it. Shit, they barely did that, didn't offer a round of beers (AT THE BREWERY) to me or my three, now grossed out, friends. We tried to buy some liquor on the way out and the manager (who wanted commendation for getting the sandwich comped) told us they could only sell rum per the "statute of limitations". Half of us are lawyers and asked if he knew what that meant. He then told us to try the distillery across the street (Rogue owned). We did, and they had been closed for hours. So much bullshit. It gets better. I emailed them a couple weeks later (after I got home from my trip) and said, I just want to let you know what happened, if it were my place, I would certainly want to know. I also included a link to my well established food website to show I was not a fraud. I didn't ask for anything, just letting them know. I get an email back from the CEO! He says he will investigate. Then radio silence. I wait a couple weeks and follow up. Nothing. He sends me a cryptic email six weeks later saying his response must have gone to spam. It did not. Then he follows up and says none of the kitchen staff said they cut themselves that day, there is no explanation for the blood! He basically called me a liar. What a fucking asshole. He later requested to friend me on LinkedIn . Also, he recently died, so I won in the end. I tell everyone that story, and will never touch a Rogue product for the rest of my life. I have the emails in case anyone wants to verify/see the derp first hand. TL/DR: Blood sandwich/dick CEO/Fuck Rogue |

Buffalo wild wings. I know they get a lot of hate but I used to like them a lot. Nice and crispy and very saucy. Last time I went, not only did I have to wait nearly an hour for my takeout order (it wasnt a big order and it was like 430...pretty sure there wete more staff than customers) but when I got my order my wings wete lukewarm, soft, and had a thin coat of dried sauce on them. Looking back I wish I would have showed them to the manager and explained why they would never get a dime from me again. Oh well.

Samuel Adams Beer (and for what it is worth - Ben and Jerry's Ice cream). Both were my favorites - both decided to play liberal games.
BW3 is probably on the same list - but that is a store by store decision. Play liberal games - loose conservative business. |

Under no circumstances will I ever give another dime to Sirius XM. One of their reps told me that the best way to get them to stop making unauthorized charges was to cancel my card, lectured me about telling him how to do his job, and refused to get a manager on the phone when asked. View Quote No fucking shit. I tried to cancel my service last night because I sold the car that had the radio. I told the guy an honest 8 times to cancel the service and send me a refund. He just would not get it. Then he wanted to send me a free satellite radio with the refund, and then asked me how I was going to pay for shipping. I damn near shit a brick and almost started yelling into the phone. No, I don't want a goddamn radio, I want my service cancelled and a refund! After an honest 20 minutes of trying to get them to cancel my service it ended with: They're sending me a free satellite radio; they will not accept no for an answer. They are paying shipping for it, because I told them I wouldn't. My service is being cancelled. They're issuing a refund. Not that I believe it, but I've gotten emails confirming both. Yeah it's not even $40 but jesus christ. It should not have taken more than 5 minutes. As soon as the radio comes in, it gets taken to the range and either given away to the first person I see, or shot for scientific testing purposes. Because Science. Never again will I be a voluntary Sirius/XM customer. |

Samsung TV's. I used to own 4. Three had bad caps in their power supplies. One was our living room TV, it was out of warranty and more or less junked and replaced with another. Two 32" units had their power supplies replaced under warranty only to show signs of going bad again within a year. The fourth TV (the replacement for the living room) blew something in the HDMI board less than a year after getting it and wouldn't accept any inputs. Samsung called that one "lightning strike" even though nothing else in the house was affected and refused to fix it under warranty. All my TVs are Panasonics now.
