Again (and again and again) the Goat has been frustrated with the lack of support that seems to be provided for older products. Most recently the extremely bespoke watch strap that is broken cannot be replaced because “It’s an old model and we don’t do spare parts for those any more. We can sell you a new one.”
The Goat owns a fully functional high-end diving computer that is useless because there’s seemingly no way to strap it to his body.
Just one example. Another is the perfect motorcycle tyre that lasts ages, grips tenaciously, delivers excellent handling, and is discontinued in favour of one that causes high-speed wobbles and lets go on damp asphalt.
And a third is the need to fling a recent smartphone with its working display, motherboard, and case because nobody (including eBay and Amazon) has a replacement battery.
Everything I try,
Everything I buy,
Everything I do
Always turns to poo
And I wonder why.
Everything I own
Every mobile phone
If it's bought by me
You can guarantee
That it should be thrown.
If it's bought today,
Then there is no way
To avoid what's true:
“Go and buy anew!”
If I want to keep
Something, then I'm "Cheap."
My opinion's based
On my hate of waste
That's more than skin deep.
Never mind what’s neat.
It is obsolete,
And nobody cares
That you can’t find spares,
So admit defeat.
