To save on paper, print instruction manuals for complicated electrical appliances on super strong coffee paper. That way you can brew up a nice pot of coffee whilst you figure out how the damn thing works.

Needs to be stronger at just 5% coffee bean content but it's a start. [theleopard, Sep 07 2007]

Apparently there's one for cats. We could print them in catnip... [theleopard, Sep 07 2007]

huh? not read my manuals? shirley you jest! |
|
| |
I don't read manuals. I mean, where's the fun in that? |
|
| |
Further on't, you can still read the manuals - if you were so inclined. |
|
| |
I keep all my manuals. Sometimes for longer than I have the item itself. |
|
| |
heh, I like this. I hate manuals. + |
|
| |
Although the evidence sits gravely against me [k_sra] I didnae know about the recent flood of grind : pour ideas. Seeing it at the 'add' page just seemed to fit. |
|
| |
[xandram], everyone does.
Apart from [G_C].
And [Dentworth], of course. |
|
| |
Let me just even that back up fer ya. (+) |

Secret UberGeek Tip: Read the manuals. People will think you have super powers when you show them how to perform amazing tasks on their equipment. |

i do not blame you for the spate of grind : pours, [theleopard], i was merely creating a little merry-go-round for myself that i could swing about on from idea to idea, all in the grind : pour family. try it. it's fun! : ) |

i don't drink coffee and i do keep manuals (although i never read them). also, i don't like anyone's hands touching my beverages before i drink it. although i'm sure this would be delicious with a milky bun, i must proffer the fish. (-) |

Hey, I just Got your name, k_sra_sra, ! |
|
| |
it's a punch in the gut when you finally get it, huh? ; ) |
|
| |
(-) meh, one-joke post. Maybe if you printed the manuals on filter paper, you could at least somehow use it to brew something. |
|
| |
so true [jutta], but I think our basic hatred for manuals let us overlook that part. If the words were spelled out in grains of coffee, that could help, too. |

My employer recently purchased some complex new technology. The supplier offered a brief introductory training course, and from there out expects you to call the tech support guy whenever you have a question. |
|
| |
I asked them for the full documentation referenced in the abbreviated training manual. |
|
| |
"Oh, we haven't updated that in five years". " Just click on Help". |
|
| |
I'm never buying anything major again without reviewing the status of the documentation beforehand. Bastards. I think I need a cup of coffee. |
|
| |
That is exactly, exactly, my point. |
