Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

When your are watching a game (usually happens when I'm watching soccer or basketball) and there is a commercial break. They come back from commercial and say, "It's 0-0 at the break we'll be right back". And then cut to commercial AGAIN!

I notice that for NFL alot. They have huge amount of commercials. Specifically around 2 minute warning time.

Before 2 minute warning a team could get a TD, then commercial, then kickoff and commercial. Then plays happen until 2 min warning, and commercial. Then a play happens, a team calls a timeout, and another commercial.

The Champions League coverage by Fox is the most annoying. They'll come back from commercial and have that stupid Heineken bit with the guy playing drums. Then that CL song is on in the background as they slap up a graphic with the score, they'll read the score, another Heineken plug. Then more commercials.

All I'm thinking the whole time is "Heineken is such ****ty, skunky beer".

I don't mind that so much in soccer. I'll trade extra commercials at half for all 45 minutes of each half being commercial free.

I don't know how you guys do DirecTV. Any time there is inclement weather, the signal goes out.

I got fed up with Comcast's rising prices in April and got DirectTV. The very first night we had it, it rained a little and signal was lost. I called them that night and told them I was done. It took a little negotiating, but they sent out a kit for me to send back their stuff.

I then called Comcast and 'threatened' to leave them for their competitor. It was a pain in the ***, but I was able to get the price back down and keep them.

I don't necessarily hate their service, but Comcast's customer service is atrocious. The worst.

I lived in Ohio growing up and now live in Tampa Florida. I have had very little issue with Direct Tv. My buddy tried to get me to switch to Dish because he gets a PS4 if her refers 3 people but I said Nah. The only think I really wish Direct Tv had was the Pac 12 network but otherwise I am a happy camper. I also bundled it with Verizion Fios. It is amazing!

Unexpectedly opening a thread with 100 youtube videos and having to wait 5 minutes for the computer to unfreeze and load 'em all.

Seeing the way some people treat pets. Im not a cat person, but after seeing how some people treat/neglect their cat,its sad to see. I was even playing with someones cat while I was by their house and I knew how they treat it,and could tell how happy it was to be treated like that(meaning me playing with it). I didnt really like cats, but after getting to see how happy it was with me playing with it(and not wanting to leave my sight after that), I sorta like cats now/want to play with it next time I see it. 2nd part of post should prob be in pleasures of life thread though....

Cashiers that ask if you have exact change so they don't have to count your change back out for you.
Now I know sometimes they need change, but a few I know ask for it EVERY time.

I love introducing change into the mix after they have the total up. They are like a deer in headlights. They only know what that little screen says for "change due"!

On the soccer front....

When you dvr a game that is tape delayed and they show the score on the scroll bar on the bottom of the screen


When it comes to gaming the post I hate the most is

"You must be playing a different game because I'm not seeing any of that"

The terms "hack" and "DDoS" being synonymous in many people's minds.
