- We rather complain on a blog about problems rather than schedule a service appointment Yep. Some complain before trying for resolution. The forums are a great source of research and knowledge which some use, others just want to vent. Whatever.
- We don't want to read the owners manual (paper or electronic editions)
Therefore, manufacturers have to plan for scenarios based on the LCD also very true, sad, but true

It comes down to people in this day and age refusing to be held accountable for their own actions. We have developed a culture of blaming anyone and everyone but ourselves. If you are looking for some funny reading, google "Gladue Report" and check out some of the Canadian "Justice" systems sentencing practices. Accountability has become a bad word, apparently.
