Car alarms. The worst.

 

[macbill]

actively used cell phones in theaters. Chatty folk in theaters. People talking over the band I paid dearly to see. People at concerts singing at the top of their lungs but quite poorly and off key and different words that sit next to you.

 

[lwien]

Strippers wearing burkas.

Round table discussion with the participants being:
Glen Beck
Sarah Palin
and Sean Hannity

Super loud TV commercials

Charlie horses in the middle of nice, deep sleep

Robo calls

Jehovah's Witness early morning uninvited door bell ring

 

[indigal]

Spoilers, ruins the lines of a car.

That's where bad liberals (if there were any) go when they die. They are stuck in that Circle of Hell.

 

[bcleez]

Don't forget Bill O'Reilly & Rush.

 

[lwien]

Don't forget Bill O'Reilly & Rush.

Actually, Bill O'Reilly isn't too bad. He's a bit more moderate, and...........he has a sense of humor and dry wit. He can be self deprecating and is not beyond slamming some of his fellow conservatives, which sets him apart from those other jokers.

And the absurdity of Rush just makes me laugh. Kind of a Lewis Black with a super conservative bent. He really is pretty funny as long as you don't dwell on the fact that there are some who actually take him seriously.

Grabbing a carton of milk from the fridge and gulping from the carton only to feel rancid lumps going down your throat.

 

[indigal]

Eww.

Loud thumping bass from a car at 3am, wakes me up everytime.

&

When you accidentally dial a wrong number & hang up before leaving a message & get a call back later from someone saying "someone called me from this number." I always think- do you call back every number on your phone just to see who made it ring?? No message = no call back.

 

[jeffp]

crap music with insane thumping bass from the car next to you hitting your ears in the face when you stop at a red light.

*edit*

playing something like this loud from your car stereo fits nicely with the above and is some kind of statement:

Rush is despicable. All the trash he talked and he was a junkie the whole time...

Bill is the same way... all that moral BS and he is sexually harassing women he works with...

I would have to say one of my annoyances is people who act like a moral compass yet violate those morals in their own lives.

 

[Konrad_Zuse]

Jeffp, I guess I would have to say people who are ignorant and wont admit they are wrong. that is one of societies bigger challenges, the fact that people have to be right. A lot of kids grow up thinking they are hot shit, but in the end it isn't good.

 

[lwien]

Bill is the same way... all that moral BS and he is sexually harassing women he works with...

Ya know, I really have my doubts that guys like O'Rielly, or Rush, or even Beck for that matter, really believes half the shit they come up with. I really think it's all about money. They know what will resonate with their target audience, and so..........they feed it. Same thing with these hypocritical politicians. They are just playing towards their constituency. So, it's not really surprising when we see their actions in conflict with their public persona. In the business world, I would say that rather than being the exception, that it is, in fact, the norm. I mean, does anyone really think that Michael Jordon wears Hanes underwear or that McDonald execs would even have one bite from a Quarter Pounder?

Hypocrisy seems to be the norm, not the exception, be it politicians, radio or tv pundits, sports figures, religious leaders, or anyone who plays and works in the public arena.

 

[jeffp]

ice cream truck music in traffic; ice cream trucks holding up progress.

 

[Konrad_Zuse]

Yo, by the way, can we keep politics out of this we don't need to argue this shit, as it could get ugly.

 

[lwien]

Getting home from McDonalds with the wrong fucking order.

 

[tdavie]

Making a grilled veggie-shrimp burrito last night at 2 am (with beans, lime cilantro rice, salsa, sour cream, green chiles, refried beans, grilled shrimp, corn, guacamole) and going to the closet to get some hot sauce, finding out the bottle (all the bottles) empty. Because I was too lazy to buy new bottles of hot sauce. Sighing. Giving the burrito to the dogs and ordering pizza.

So before a disaster happens again tonight, I figure it is time for some bake n shop

[bcleez]

I hate how people speed in their own neighborhood or coast through stop signs, you are almost home and you should respect your own neighborhood...

Also not using turn signals... that is a huge problem down south. Is it too hard to flick your wrist?

 

[Happycamper]

ISP having problems and internet down AGAIN!...

 

[Happycamper]

A drunk 'friend' (using word loosely) who keeps ringing in the evenings and they have absolutley nothing to talk about and just keep droning on and on.

neighbours cutting their grass early in the morning , forcing you to wake up

 

[aznfknpride]

running out of herb

[Mckdenton]

waiting on that fucker that is now late. I can't stand tardiness!

I think they are conservative, but I, too, think it's just shtick. Who's the outrageous woman, Coulter, couldn't possible be as nasty s she comes across. But doing her shtick she doesn't have to work at being a lawyer. I, like lwien, think a great part of their outrageousness is an act.

If all you have to do is spew invectives and cut down liberals and they hand you millions of dollars, I'd do it.
