It means any drips are caught back in the bottle rather than falling onto a tablecloth or dress or whatever. I imagine it's only done for wine because of how red wine stains stuff. nonsense and balls. Are we that unable to get a fluid from a bottle to a receptacle that we have to contort our wrists? Pfft. Its twee and anyone doing it should have their hands amputated from the wrist. Edited July 21, 2020 by peterw 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning I can't do anything with it. Mate, they shouldn’t need to write “turnover” for you to look on the other side of the paper for the missing info. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You absolute cocking cocks of cockingham common. clearings in the woods. There's a good reason for this, kind of. They're not searching out the questions just to give pointless answers. Amazon is emailing them, and I've not seen a recent one, but it certainly used to be the case that it looked like they'd specifically asked you the question. Most people see through that and realise it's just automated BS and ignore it, but some people buy the fact that this person has personally asked them a question. Basically, the people who answer Amazon product questions are the same demographic that lend money to Nigerian princes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted July 27, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted July 27, 2020 People who write "thx" on a work email. Firstly it's not very professional. And secondly was it really worth it to save writing those three extra letters? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
