On the fritz

Hey there! Today, let's dive into a phrase that perfectly encapsulates those moments when technology decides to test our patience – "on the fritz." Simply put, when something is on the fritz, it means it's not working as it should.

Imagine your Wi-Fi suddenly disconnects during an important meeting, or your car starts making strange noises on your way to work – these situations are perfect for "on the fritz." For example: • My computer is on the fritz, and I can't get any work done!

• The toaster is on the fritz again; it burned my toast.

• I think my phone is on the fritz; it keeps freezing.

• The air conditioner is on the fritz, and it's scorching in here.

BONUS. Other ways to say there’s something wrong with your laptop: • My laptop's Wi-Fi is acting up.

• There seems to be a problem with the Wi-Fi connection on my laptop.

• Zoom is being glitchy.

• My computer is acting wonky.

So, next time you find yourself grappling with a glitchy gadget or a quirky appliance, remember the trusty phrase "on the fritz" to perfectly capture the situation. Happy communicating, and may your devices stay glitch-free!
