What pissed you off today?

I found out that a guy I worth with didn't get a promotion because of a question he asked in my meeting about a month ago. Apparently our supervisor thought it was inappropriate and that I might be upset about it.
Considering I don't even recall the question - it clearly didn't hurt my feelings. The results of the meeting were postive, so in my mind, there isn't an issues. The supervisor never asked me to find out if I was upset or not - he just made sure that it looked bad for the other guy.
The little turd pisses me off something cruel. I bet he wonders why I'm moving teams!
 
The ever increasing intrusion into our lives, our rights, our liberty, by governments and law enforcement agencies, and the continued empathy from a large section of the communities we all live in who don't see we no longer live in freedom, and we are finding ourselves in less and less positions where we can object as an individual and not be punished. The latest thing to be shoved onto us is the soon to be fixture of a device on every vehicle in the country which will track when and where each vehicle has been, who owns that vehicle and is presumably driving it, and the information stored for an undefined period of time in the interests of 'perhaps it might be needed'. Sheesh, and they still have the nerve to say we live in a democracy and believe in freedom and a respect for civil and human rights.

seeming like the countdown doesnt matter
 
I made a Christmas cake for the first time ever. Spent an enormous amount of money on dried fruit, nuts, and brandy. Put the cake into the oven in the early hours of the morning on a low temperature for several hours, exactly as the recipe said.

Got up this morning, drove into town, did some Christmas shopping, and met some friends for lunch at a lovely sunny pub by the river. It was at that point I realised that the fucking cake was still in the oven. Cooking. For 10 hours.

Anyone want a smelly, dry lump of very expensive burned cake?

Oh well, at least I still have most of a bottle of brandy left.

Bury cake, consume brandy, post on lit. You didnt need all that sugar anyway :)
 
That whenever I feel like this, I go back to that last weekend with my dad and relive every moment in my mind. :(
 
When the neighbor runs his leaf blower. It sounds like it's in the room with me. Annoying sound too.
 
God, it's been an unpleasant week.

You know what? I'm going to take that personally [collapses in sobbing wreck on the floor] And no, I don't want any of your gay liquer, nothing can make it better!

My Labyrinth DVD is skipping :(

My "gay liqueur" is bloody lovely, thank you most kindly.

Could be worse. I don't have anything capable of playing DVDs at the moment - my lappy no longer recognises it has a CD drive and my 360 has to be repaired because it won't play discs.

This is quite possibly because you refer to it as a "lappy." :p
 
Oh come on, there is equally little wrong with the word "lappy"! I bet you watch Labyrinth unironically as well, don't you?

I watch it imagining David Bowie fucking Jennifer Connolly, masks and all.

But aside from that... :p

Isn't she supposed to be underage in that movie? (Not that I'd know, being a manly man I haven't seen any films that don't involve one of the protagonists exploding at the climax). Kinda weird, if I'm honest, although she is pretty. Not sexy, but pretty in a refined way. Also good in Blood Diamond.

Quite possibly. She's also very child-like, what with the stropping and toys and blind faith in fairytales. Still, even at her age, I was fantasising about fucking men like David Bowie - even if I didn't know quite what that entailed.
 
My car. You know how sometimes the steering wheel locks up, and to start the car you have to jiggle to wheel while turning the key and then it'll start? Mine's locked up, only nothing I've tried will get this thing to start. The steering wheel won't turn at all, and the key doesn't turn in the ignition, either. It goes in and out just fine, but no turning. I tried for 30 minutes today to start it, and nothing.

Anyone with ideas on how to fix it? Now is so not the time for it to be out of operation.... I have to move Wednesday and fly back to Italy for Christmas Thursday. No time to be without my own transportation!
 
Now, after doing a search online to find ideas of how to fix my ignition... guess what the number one complaint is in a Ford Focus (yep, that's what I drive)? The ignition locks and you can't get it fixed without replacing it. There's even a mass lawsuit in California over it because Ford won't fix the ignition.

Grrrrrrr.
