Things that piss you off?

It wouldn't bother me if they were relevant, but some of them were started months ago. Why now?

When I spend the greater part of 3 HOURS attempting to upgrade Norton and McAfee on my computer and I get stuck in some "catch-22" loop of unable to complete installing because some "configure wizard" hasn't finished.. but the "wizard" doesn't seem to be located anywhere. When "tech support" gets here and gets it all fixed up for me, I'll be showing my appreciation quite intimately!!!!!!

Some drunk idiots decided the other night that it is really funny to empty one of the fire extinguishers into the hallway of the hostel in which I work. I got to clean the mess...

Putting in for a bump to another shift at work at the beginning of the day only to hear at the end of the day that I may have filled out the form for nothing.

WPMO:

Some clown dumped two bags of garbage outside of my back patio. I've called the management of the apartment complex and it's still there two days later. I'm NOT cleaning up someone else's shit.

Oh dear. I've been practicing Christmas music on the piano since July. I figure I need a few months lead time or I don't have a prayer of knowing it by Christmas.

In regards to the Christmas merchandise, I work in retail and the reason (for most stores) thatit's put out early is because we've been getting all this shit since July and our stock rooms are full, also, once December comes around we start to get ready for Valentine's day.

But anyway, WPMO is people telling my Hispanic boyfriend that he sold out by dating a blonde white girl.

When you take the time to help someone out and they can't be bothered with a simple 'thank you.'

What is the point of insisting that British spelling is correct and that American spelling is not? Are you unaware of the occasional differences between British and American spelling? If so, you're ignorant. If you're aware of the differences and simply insist that the British spelling is somehow superior, then you're a jingoist and a petty one at that.

Not that it's related, but there were several reasons why some of my forefathers dumped a boatload of tea into what you quaintly called Shawmut Harbour. Rigid and stuffy insistence on the rightness of a single way of life was one of them.

Did you know that your cell phone has a hidden moisture sensor that changes color when it get wet? It's so that the manufacturers will know when people return phones that have been dropped like this and thus have voided the warranty.

I had my phone in the itty bitty butt pocket of my capri pants and it kinda jumped out and landed in the toilet. I heard the telltale *clink* *clink* and reached right in to retrieve it.

No more cell phone in the itty bitty butt pocket, nope, not again!
