WAD is an acronym that stands for "working as designed." This is a phrase that support reps use when talking about a product that isn't broken. It may mean that the customer mistook a new feature for a glitch, or that the issue that was reported is no longer present. Whatever it was, the product is now functioning normally and is working as designed.

WAD was originally Working as Designed but was converted to Working as Designated. Why?

I wouldn’t normally spell out why, but this board is dumb as shit now so I will.

Working as Designed looks bad and appears to implicate the designer if there is an injury. Working as Designated expression more easily passes the buck over to a consumer misuse defense.

Working As Designated (WAD)

WAD is an acronym that stands for "working as designated." This is a phrase that support reps use when talking about a product that isn't broken. It may mean that the customer mistook a new feature for a glitch, or that the issue that was reported is no longer present. Whatever it was, the product is now functioning normally and is working as designated.

this is just crazy

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5526404&forum_id=2#47644949)

but i believe that you didn't anyway. first i remember reading it before spaceporn responded. second, he'd have to have two tabs open to the same thread, one unrefreshed, to be able to copy and paste it.

which is just another layer to spaceporn's stupidity and stubbornness. when confronted with the fact he's incorrect he first lies to say you edited your post in a way where he wouldn't have been wrong. but what he claimed doesn't have any bearing on him being wrong anyway!

god, he's just so fucking dumb.

it's actually wild that you manage to so consistently create these situations where you prove your idiocy in such bizarre and unusual ways

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5526404&forum_id=2#47644941)

why would you just make up this easily disprovable claim.

I cut and pasted directly from this website, which anyone can go look at:

it's #15 in the list and clearly says designed, not designated

your birdbrain is atypical in this regard. but here's a Q to assess her birdbrainedness: if you expressed frustration about having to go get the car cleaned, did she try to avoid accountability?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5526404&forum_id=2#47644814)

that said, today, all she said to my text was "sorry." i think that's a win and a further argument was thus avoided.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5526404&forum_id=2#47644831)

and you're a wise man. a curt "sorry" is basically a non-apology. she had already chambered the "omg i'm taking care of the kids and they left the door open. they're x ages, they are going to make mistakes. and i can't be everywhere at once..." if you added anything after that.

once i learned that it's best to avoid inducing a birdbrain meltdown, and to not try to challenge it with logic when it happens, i started having much better long-term relationships with women.

it's true, you CAN train a lot of this shit out of them, and if you capitulate every time you are only causing more future headaches (or added responsibility) for yourself. modern life with kids requires two adults most of the time. you can keep your upper hand, be the decision maker, be the one to look the other way, but about 40% of the time you need to stand your ground.

They do it camping, on vacation, at the grocery store, at a dinner party, any time.

Not everything needs to fit your narrative brother. I love all people as a baseline
