This year I was the April Fool ... but it actually started in March !!! Maybe the "IDES" ?

"Murphy's Law" got me good ... everything electronic I touched had a problem!

Couldn't get Online on either Puter for 3 weeks. Took 4 calls with Techies to finally resolve.

Landline for home phone had bad wire. Cell phone worked but only when IT wanted to! TV DVD VHS players all had a "Buzz" in sound.

Then finally, the following Episode occurred ...

"If I Had a Hammer ..."






NEW "Words With Friends"

Tom Hyland - (C) - 4/8/15

The "Update" SUCKS!

Let me Count the Ways ...

First of all, it Forced me to Update ...
Would Not let me play existing games in Progress.
There was No other Choice except click OK!

Next, it would Not Download ...
After it did, Instead of listing current Games ...
It listed All my many Friends on Facebook ...
Trying to Force me to CREATE a new game with one of Them!

After doing so I then discovered that Each Time ...
I tried to PLAY a word, it redundantly Asked ...
Do you want to Play That Word?
DUH?

After a second unnecessary Click ...
Then ... a COMMERCIAL AD !
After Each & Every Word Played!

Then, you have to go to bottom of Screen ...
And click Next Game ...
Then wait Forever to see if the Sucker would finally Load!

Most of the time it would Not load the next Existing Game ...
But go Back to the Freaking Create List Again!
Time Delays and pushing more Buttons than Before!

A Frigging WEEK of Bullshit Ensued ...
I wrote and Complained ...
No Response from ZYNGA !

DUH ?

Games I was trying to play that were In Progress ...
Were Dropped or Deleted, telling players I RESIGNED!
HORSE-SHIT !
( It Makes The Grass Grow Green )

When I saw some Friends in Person ...
I Warned them Not to Update!

Now ... After all this Aggravation & Stress ...
I went to Applications ... on my Android ...
Confirmed that there were Two WWF Applications ...
Confirmed there were Two Different Versions ...

The Older, Original had to be the lower V 2. Something ...
The Newer had to be the V 7. Something ...
Right ?
So, I purposely Uninstalled the V 7. One !

I then Re-booted my Phone, totally removing the Battery ...
Re-Booted ... and Voila !!!

THE OLD ONE WAS GONE & NEW PERSISTED !
DUH ???

But guess what Pilgrims ...
Something Did Change!
Something Did Improve!

My Old Games were Still There ...
They did play more Rapidly ...
But the Stupid Ads & other Stupid Redundancies Remain!


*************


Now, let me Explain how Simple this Entire Process Works:


A few Years ago, I bought this SAMSUNG 4G Phone ...
My Service is through T MOBILE ...

I Wanted to Play Words With Friends ...
IT is through ZYNGA ...

But ... You Must Load it under WWF ...
But ... You Must do it through GOOGLE Games ...

IT IS LIKE THE FREAKING "DOMINO THEORY"

AND ... GUESS WHAT ELSE PILGRIMS ...

You can be in a Good Location ...
With FOUR BARS ...

B U T ...

If the G-D 4G Red/Green Lites Don't Light ...

NOTHING WORKS !!!

What a System !
What a Country !
What a POS ... "Piece Of Shit" !!!

All of my Friends & Relatives that have APPLES ...
Don't Have These Aggravations !!!

"To Be Forewarned Is To Be Forearmed!"

DON'T UPDATE WWF THROUGH ZYNGA !!!

(C) - TKH.

Isn't Modern Technology Wonderful??!!

I think I'll just play a game of 'Fetch' with my Dogs in our backyard - I don't need to figure anything out or try to get 'tech help' from anyone.

Thanks for the warning, but I'm all Apples. I do recall the days when she had a cheap Windows XP before Microsoft saw the light and started sending updates automatically to keep ahead of the hackers. There was one period of six weekends where I let the Indians take over her computer only to have them fail trying to fix it until I found a little Canadian registry utility that worked.

I have XP on my Mac right now, and in spite of dire warnings from Microsoft that it is no longer supported, I find that my old favorites, Minesweeper and Free Cell, still work great. Heeding the warnings, I upgraded to Windows 7, only to find out that I needed, "protection." So I bought McAfee, until I realized that Comcast would provide me with free virus protection. What I did find out with Windows 7 was that they no longer had Minesweeper and Free Cell… Go figure. So, I have no use for Windows 7. The online substitutes I've found so far are slow and quirky.

Apple is not perfect. They have abandoned some very good software with upgrades, but at least they give you a number of years to leave that software behind. My last upgrade, a free one, to the Yosemite operating system, has raised havoc with my voice dictation system, that Nuance has not been able to fix, yet. My workarounds work for that, for now. I'm also getting disturbing pop-up ads from the Internet. I think that's another disturbing trend like spam that we will never really fully be able to get rid of.
