So funny (and kinda sweet) how many people are trying to explain time signature to OP

LOL I was checking the comments for exactly this.

My wife and I have ADHD and have the same issue. Emotional regulation is impaired in many with ADHD, so we tend to run emotionally "hotter" than most. We may get more upset about something than an NT person might, hence why we come across as very upset, but we may not see it as particularly intense because that's a normal reaction in our experience.

Not necessarily what might be causing it for you, but definitely what does it for me and many others I've known. DBT helped a lot.

    I was actually slightly wrong in my original comment. I'll fix it.

    It's not the terms and conditions, but US law (I'm assuming he's from the US).

    15 U.S.C. Chapter 50 §2301(10) defines a warranty "remedy" as...

    ...whichever of the following actions the warrantor elects: repair, replacement, or refund; except that the warrantor may not elect refund unless (i) the warrantor is unable to provide replacement and repair is not commercially practicable or cannot be timely made, or (ii) the consumer is willing to accept such refund.

    It goes on to define a refund as...

    ...refunding the actual purchase price (less reasonable depreciation based on actual use where permitted by rules of the Commission).

    As I recall, these other companies were either offering but not mandating a refund, which is legal, or claiming they didn't have equivalent products in stock, which allows them to unilaterally opt for a refund of the original purchase price instead.

    This is a perfectly acceptable policy in a sane world, but it's 2026. Party to the bottom! Wooo.

    This is the second time this has happened. I delete all my old posts and comments using PowerDeleteSuite. I view my profile - everything selected is gone. A few months later, it's all back. I repeat the process, verifying it's all gone. I log in today, months later, and it's back. Simply maddening.

    Is there anything I can do to make it stick?
