You know what really grinds my gears?

[nc0ffey]

When people answer a phone with caller ID and act like they don't know who called them. Especially at work when I call one if our staff cell phones and they answer and do the whole greeting that we do when we speak to customers.
If I can see who's calling I usually answer "Hey [their name]" or just "Hey"...no sense in acting like I don't know who you are.

When people call my parents house phone and instead of saying "Hello is Bob there?" they just say "Bob!?"

I answer the phone with people I know by saying "Ya"

I answer the phone with people I know by saying "Ya"

"What do you want?"

And I'm sure that would probably grind a few people's gears here.

Since the topic currently is phone calls, and it being that time of year I hate getting those political survey calls every 30 minutes.

I answer the phone with "Ahoy" for people I know.

People who hold full conversations in text messages. Not the private texting that you don't want other people or your roommate to hear, but meaningless drivel that could easily be over with in 3 minutes that instead is drawn out over 15 minutes because you must type out the words.


Or people who don't turn off their Ipod clicker sound or their Ipod typing sound.

People who call and want to have a conversation when you are going to see them soon in person.

How stupid people are when it comes to electronics. A lady on this Facebook page for people in our town to sell **** is selling a "42 inch Sony HDTV". Well its a Sony WEGA HDTV which is 8 year old technology, LCD rear-projection and *******es are seriously about to pay $250 for this thing. It doesn't even have HDMI that's how old of technology it is.

I'm not sure if I am *** for doing this, but I asked for model number and asked if the lamp was going to need replacing soon. I'll ask how many HDMI ports it has next.

HughesNet's bandwidth cap.

The fact that I had to go to someone's house to listen to the Badgers hockey game is ridiculous.

When people pronounce the word "program" as "pro-grum".

Also, setting the clocks forward.

i hate when Tom from home security calls. (new smart phone) i had already told him to stop calling at least ten times so the next time he called I dropped some f bombs and that ended it.


I also hate it when people smack chewing gum and then pop it loudly...I dont want to hear that isht! Chew with your got dang mouth closed! that and I most certainly don't want to hear that crap while you are talking to me at the same time....very annoying.


I also don't like listening to radio hosts when I can hear them A
breathing loudly and B eating something. Or sounding sick....gross.

The fact that I have to REQUEST KETCHUP and SALT with my GOT dang French fries@ any fast food place. How stoopid....


thats all for now. I'm sure I'll think up more.
