If course I quickly acknowledged it, so my phone would stop wailing, so missed the details.

No, I'm simply not a self-absorbed navel gazer. I don't expect the government to cater to my every need. I understand that sometimes I will be inconvenienced and I don't throw myself on the floor wailing and tearing at my clothes while lamenting such a minor inconvenience when it happens. Grow up.

But that's exactly what you're doing right now.

"I know you are but what am I?"

That's pathetic.

No, I'm not. I'm pointing out that the vast majority of us are well adjusted functioning members of society who understand that the extremely minor inconvenience of getting a few alerts can, and often does, make the difference between someone getting their kids back and not and were sick tired of the tiny, whiney minority of delicate snowflakes who just can't function if their sleep is interrupted once in a while.

Get over yourself.
