agreed

noises people make:
brushing their teeth
chewing
liberally using silverware
moaning while taking a piss
heavy breathing
snoring
being overly enthusiastic when saying something like 'oh my god'

Eucalyptus Trees

In fact most gum trees rub my goat the wrong way. They are rubbish and my least favourite tree. Nothing grows underneath their canopy meaning if you ever want to sit under one you have to sit on hard compacted dirt. Not to mention their leaves are hard and dry, even worse when they fall on the ground, they don't even make a good compost. Their brunches are rubbish too. When they fall to the ground (and they do often) they are short and scraggly and you would never be able to use a branch as a walking stick. Not failing to mention that when they are fully grown they do not have low lying branches which makes then terrible for climbing in and next to useless in building a tree house in.

Where I live, authorities have cut down all low hanging branches anyway... I haven't been able to climb in a tree in ten years.

Fat chicks who rip girls for being skinny. Like seriously, we all know you are just jealous, stop making an ass of yourself.

But then how would the Koala's get high?


Anyways, psychiatrists are a good pet peeve.

Ever seen a koala with a job?

^ What does that have to do with anything? People on welfare don't have jobs. Children don't have jobs. The elderly don't have jobs. Monkeys don't have jobs. Dogs don't have jobs. Yet you treat all of those with more respect, I can assume.

What gives?

 

[Busty St Clare]

I have the same distain for any dole scum, child, old codger, chimp or ball sniffer who gets high all day and doesn't work.

To be fair to the Koala haters on here, they do kind of look like stereotypical movie hobos:

Cars that ride the edge of the curb when its raining out and thus splash me.

It made my night very chilly.

Unlocked doors. Not so much individual rooms of a house or residence(although it's a plus), but the front and back doors of the residence itself. When I enter a friend's house, I immediately lock(and bolt if possible) the door. If I'm not the last to enter, for example if I'm with other people and I just happen to enter first, I kindly wait until everyone's in then I lock/bolt the door.

 

[ebola?]

er...why? the residence might not be under siege.

Gossip at work. Like holy fuck can we please stop that shit. I hear so much drama and it gets annoying... The manager bitching about the assistant manager. The assistant manager bitching about the manager. Then all this other bullshit... Its like really why don't you all shut the fuck up.

Do I really need a reason? It just bugs me is all. No one I know has ever said anything, or even given it a second thought as far as I know.
I tell you what ebola, if you ever invite me over I promise we can leave all the doors wide open if you want and I wont say anything.

Perfect.

The only thing worse than gossip people are the SUCK UPS... ruining the whole situation for everyone (b/c then everyone else starts/are forced to suck up). If you can't tell already, I've worked at some shitty places.

Its the neoliberal, immaterial, affective-labor work place. Workers are de-skilled, put into precarity, and are forced to collborate (be good "team memebers") and compete at the same time.. Competing over jobs that are meaningless and that require work that anyone can do... which then feeds into the whole qualification / higher education degree arms race where tuitions are sky high, and the meaningfulness of the degree programs become nonexistant.


Office work is largely women's work.

Yeah, you need a reason.

This. I took a dump in the men's bathroom last night (there were girls in the women's restroom, the men's was empty and I took a MEAN dump) and some night crew guy freaked out and told the manager. Now all of the managers know and it's probably only a matter of time before people are questioning me.

The guy could have just asked me about it. Like wtf. Isn't that how we NORMALLY work out grievances?

But yeah, everyone complains about everyone else.

Oy, so here's a pet peeve of mine: why go to someone else about a situation? Just go up to the person first. If they aren't receptive, THEN you go to the managers. How fuckin' hard is that?!
