Today's Pet Peeve

Jury duty.

I hated being excused from jury duty.

It was to be a two day trial and the rest of the jury pool seemed to have no idea what was being asked of them. A criminal defense attorney in the hall told me 'You were articulate and you were paying attention; as soon as you spoke I knew the prosecution would want you gone". :mad
 
Actually, let me change mine to "people who have no perspective at all and think their little bubble world epitomizes ethics, morality, knowledge, decency, and justice, and they themselves stand as a bastion of the nobility of all our Earth culture has to offer, when in reality they are fuckwits."

Humm, I am sure there is a the law of Contradiction in there someplace :laughing

Thats like saying one party is intolerant while not accepting a point of view
 
Pet peave of my day: when the wife ask me to get her GIANT fucking work kit out of the car she was just In not 5 mins ago!!!!
 
Pet peeve of the day.

All these fucking bicyclist motherfuckers. I pass you, I pass a huge pack of you slow ass fuckers.

I stop at a light and 15 of you roll up....and pile into the crosswalk in front of me.

I THEN PASS YOU SHITHEADS AGAIN.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

I even yell "Now I have to pass all you assholes again"

Even more of a peeve is the fuckers that just weave through pedestrians in the cross-walk and blow the light....AND I STILL PASS YOU.

STAY THE FUCK BEHIND ME, YOU SLOW FUCKING ASSHOLES..
 
Dave, you seems angry. Do you need a hug?
 
Pet Peeve:

Programming prof gives me shit about walking two buildings over after mid term to get my laptop to switch wifi networks so that I could actually access the website/code check to turn in the mid term. Both sites crashed multiple times - business as usual - when the entire lecture hall tried to log in to turn in their mid term. "That's unacceptable because it compromises the integrity of the test."

...WHAT integrity?! It was an open notes, open book, OPEN INTERNET (read: Google and whatever else you wanted perfectly acceptable) test. Social media was her only constriction - no Facebook, Skype, or Piazza with other students. On top of which she left the test open to be submitted for 4 hours after it was over.

Haven't gotten my grade back yet...we'll see what she gives me.
 
My pet peeve of the day is bullshit extraneous packing that is on everything now. It shouldn't take 15 minutes and a hacksaw to extricate an item. :mad
 
When there is no good shit on BARF!:twofinger:twofinger:twofinger:twofinger
 
The neighbor that wakes me up once a week with sending off other young drunks at 2am and slamming doors and windows; people who slam doors in general are a pet peeve.

Funny how the older 'native San Franciscan' never does it..

Fun post, Valgar
 
Asiam neighbors that do not understand apartment living. My place has pretty thick walls - can't hear the neighbors below or side to side at all, even when they're throwing parties.

Asians upstairs have kids that literally stomp around the apartment all day running around. You can hear them going from room to room - even with headphones on playing dubstep. They jump up and down so hard you FEEL the thumping. This goes on from about 1pm - midnight. I go up and talk to the mom and she gives me the "OHHHHHHHHHhsorryso-ee so-ee so-ee soeesoeeeee" and shuts the door in my face. Went up another day, said "look, I understand it's not after 10 pm which is quiet hours here, but I'm trying to write an English paper right below you so I'd appreciate a little less stomping on the floor." She goes "oh, my friends just now came over sorry it's their kids." ....No bitch, it's not, it's been going on for 3 hours and it's a daily occurrence.
 
People at Starbucks that taking fucking table without ordering even small coffee

RPG to the face.
 
Old machines that everything you take apart to fix and find three other problems and then you have to go explain why you've been working on it all day and it's more broken than when you started. :rant
 
A-hole whose car alarm sensitivity is cranked to 11 and goes off when a squirrel runs by! :mad

People that rush to get in front of me in traffic, then slow down. Precisely what was the fucking purpose of that?

Hyperfucktards. All of them.
 
When people assume that the task you've been asked to complete takes only seconds when that's not reality... At all.

Being responsible for something at work over which you have no control. :nchantr
 
You bring me crap, expect me to pay you crap prices.

So much of this!!!!

And to add... When I order a drink at Starbucks and it's the wrong fucking thing. Then when you asked them to make it again you get a :| like I've never ordered it before and another crap drink.

I bought a new bicycle and components are arriving from various nations around the world.

it was almost blowtorch time yesterday. The worst package was the new grips I actually picked up from REI...I get a better workout getting the parts out than riding so far.
 
Big box trucks that are in the left most lane on the freeway. I80 in sf.

IDC that they're allowed there but it's still a four lane freeway for cheese's sake
