The wife wants to see a particular show, so I have to go to tickets.com to get tickets. I think it would be less painful to pound my nuts flat with a ball-peen hammer. After clicking through endless showtimes and getting "Tickets are not available together in the quantity you requested" I finally get a pair of seats somewhere between the ISS and the Hubble telescope. I try again; 15-20 minutes later (yes, really) , I get another set, which are decent. I bend over for the $30 "convenience fee" and $3.50 "processing" fee, put in all my credit card info, etc, say 'no thank you' to the 'ticket insurance' etc, and finally get to the money shot....

"The reservation for these tickets has expired" /sad trombone

By this time I'm fantasizing about musicians lying dead and naked in a pool of their own vomit in a Greyhound bus station bathroom, but then I think it through a little more clearly and realize it's not their doing, but the 'industry' which has sprung up around them to sap every last dollar they can. I'd gladly pay the $30 convenience fee to see one of these guys fed into a wood chipper.

I was doing this out of duress - the wife wanted to see this show for her birthday; I have no interest in seeing this show at all. Zero. The fact that people willingly put up with this shyte warps my mind.
