On mine right now:

• 1952 Chevolet barn find (wife and I were talking about classic cars during lunch)
• Social Security 2025 COLA... (we had discussed when I should start claiming)
• Finland is on the verge of... (wife had found my DNA test and noted that I had Norwegian ancestry)

I've never seen anything like that on my iPhone, nor has the wife. You need to change a setting.

Yeah, and the doors never close good with one light push. I hear the chime that indicates you left the door ajar from upstairs and I gotta go flyin' down there to close it. I forced the ice maker to work, then it froze up again. I changed the water filter and got blasted in the face by a water stream, so I just have water, but no ice now.

Forgot to mention about their washing machine and dryer. Remember about the top of the washing machine blowing off? They had a guy come out to install additional hardware to prevent that failure from happening.

The frig, washer, dryer were purchased by my father-in-law when we moved here in 2015. The washer and dryer still work, but I don't like their dryer. Several times, we have to let it run longer to dry the cloths. It's not the lint pipe being plugged because we had that cleaned out. It's just a shitty dryer made by Samsung.
