Pet Peeves v. u mad?

you know the kind of people

you express an opinion or provide an arbitrary perspective, they ask, why do you want to argue?

you entertain ideas of improvement, they call you a complainer

losers,looking to be offended and probably not using their minds to their full potential

that's what they are ;)

Alaska Commercial. They have a virtual grocery monopoly on this island, and besides price gouging "cuz they can", they also apparently follow me around the store to see what I buy so that they can discontinue it. Bad enough when it was just fresh hot chilis (any variety) and Tension Tamer tea; now they took nursing pads off the shelves. No warning, both brands, gone. I had to order online, and will have to wait weeks to get them in the mail. (Have I mentioned that shipping to Alaska sucks?!) Wet shirts for me :(

^ did you ask the store why they stopped carrying the products you buy and whether they'd consider restocking them? what did they say?

This is the one thread on the whole entire internets where someone can offer nothing but kind, sage advice and actually be trolling every other poster. It's like bizarro world!

Also: I kind of miss fjones' rants. Man but that guy was great at getting pissed off.

Whoa.. What's that supposed to mean? Why you being so critical?

I did that with the Tension Tamer three or four years ago. Dude just kept saying he'd order it, never did, eventually I just quit asking.

It's actually not such a bad thing. One less item to buy from them. For all kinds of reasons, I don't like support them with my dollars.
 
I hate when i am taking the lazy way home and take a couple good pulls of the joint, a good song pops on the radio, the full moon is shining bright behind the tree branches. Everything is just good and than a hurt deer comes limping out of the woods, looks at me and than limps off into the woods.
 
people butting into/breaking conversations. not waiting for a polite "in".

There is a new guy at work who does this - we were chatting the other day, and i was literally half way through my story and paused for a second; he jumped right in with one of his stories. It was so obvious, everyone looked at me with a "WTF" expression.
 
Two more:
1. People who don't bathe and wash their clothes enough to prevent themselves from smelling like total shit. A little underarm odor from the natural crowd is not a problem, but any other body funk is unacceptable.

2. People who don't wash their hands after taking a shit or picking up their pets shit. Even if you don't actually touch shit in the process, it's still too close and you shouldn't put those nasty hands in the nachos.
 
people that have NSFW avatars - makes every thread, even with the most PG of topics, NSFW without any warning. (and i'm not talking cleavage or a wiggling butt, but rather very clear genitalia and penetration). looking at you, xeros! constant bumper of old and resolved SLR threads! :X
 
People who use an asterisk (*) as a degree symbol (°). I understand not everyone has a number pad or can remember such complicated ALT codes, but is it that hard to type out "degrees"? You're already hitting two keys to make an asterisk--What's another five?

Oh, and the people who use tildes (or "swing dashes" as I've heard them called) (~) as ways to make text stand out. Same goes for using quotes to make words more pronounced.

~~~What is this world "coming" to?~~~ I mean, it's January and last week it was 40* out!
