What are these gremlin gremlins you speak of?

well, the water thing... I don't know where that came from
but as far as I've always known gremlins are responsible, supposedly, for mechanical failures
so, if there were gremlins in @Pleco's story,
the sprinklers would not have worked
he would not have heard gurgling
and perhaps pleco would not be with us anymore

and I know what you're thinking, indeed, what we're all thinking.

better luck next time

Are gremlins also responsible for your post's format?

2 years ago I was unknowlingly in a HewlettPackard class action suit. Each person got a coupon for $7. There was nothing on their site anywhere near $7, and I let it go. Probably a lot of people did. So who won the lawsuit?

The plaintiffs did. The long and short of it was FB was charging a fee (ala Paypal) to transfer money through their message feature but hadn't updated their terms and conditions to reflect that so anyone that transferred money with them between like March and December 2015 were elligible for this lawsuit. Since it didn't cost me anything to sign up for it and I had transferred money (Literally 1 time for a 1 dollar fee) I signed up for it. Come to find out there were like 14,000 claimants who got $15 checks from the settlement.

I actually used that twice.
I don't remember much about it though.
I never checked if I got charged fees,
and I probably wouldn't have cared at the time

Agreed. I wasn't angry over it or anything I mean it was just a dollar but I remember when I got the email I remembered it had been in April because I transferred the money for my girlfriend to get herself a birthday gift and it cost me nothing to sign up for the suit.
