Should You Repair or Replace a Defective Puzzle?

[FrancisZ]

I have twice now had to repair a defective puzzle from the same manufacturer. *raises fist in anger* Curse you puzzle company!

I made this in response to my dilema: http://hubpages.com/hub/How-to-Repair-a-Defective-Puzzle .

If anyone here wants to know which puzzle company to avoid, I'll gladly name names in private.

You sound like the sort of fellow who would be a perfect target for one of my revenge actions. (Not that you have irritated me, but because of your hobby.) If someone who likes doing jigsaws pisses me off, I will not only steal a half dozen or so pieces, but will replace them with an equal number of pieces from an unrelated puzzle. Hence arises a level of consternation that few have ever witnessed.

Well, I have to give it to you: that is creatively vengeful.

Ooo Danger ... I like your style.

I aim to please.

Now, if someone really pisses me off... bullets and C4 and pruning shears and arc welders enter the scene and things become unpleasant. Fortunately, only one person has ever achieved that status... and he buggered off to the other side of the country before I could get him.
At the risk of deflating my reputation or disillusioning my more blood-thirsty fans ()... let me hasten to point out that there are myriad everyday events that irritate me. Cialis commercials, someone throwing a punch at me in a bar, my wife splitting with another guy... those are irritating to some degree or another. (And believe me, Cialis ads irritate me more that W splitting.) Pissing me off, upon which occurrence I consider torture followed by a slow death to be the appropriate solution, pretty much comes up only with physical violence, or the imminent threat of physical violence, to me or my family or my friends.
