Here are some minor things that seemingly have no upside, and feel like they exist just to make someone angry. Like, who's reading the entire story about someone's vacation in Italy?

Sometimes people come into a store ready to start swinging. When this customer called this business a scam, the owner chose to respond with some convincing aspects of the whole story that were left out of the original review.

The Touchpoint Group in New Zealand is developing artificial intelligence using two years worth of angry customer calls from four Australian banks.
