annoying technology
Well I never thought I'd have to read the instruction manual in order to figure out how to use a set of scales!
All I want to do is weigh my luggage. But no, the scales won't let me do something so simple. I can't simply stand on the scales and get my weight. Oh no. The scales need to know my age, gender, height and activity level. Then I can stand on them. And then they will quickly flash a whole lot of numbers: weight, body fat, TBL (whatever the hell that is). Problem is they flash them far to quickly for me to read. So I have to keep pressing recall.
I guess when I stand on the scales with my luggage they will tell me I am obese with a dangerously high body fat!
