You know really grinds my gears...

People who go door to door. In this day and age this is the most annoying thing ever.

Door to door is a practice of the mid 1900's. My home is my refuge. I don't want to be bothered by some stranger coming to my door, and for that matter calling my home. Leave me the F alone people!

If I am in interested in something, I will research it online or seek out the product myself.....and the Jehovah Witnesses and bible pushers.... please find another way to get your message out. I am a christian too. What do I need to put in front of my house to get these people to keep it moving?

My goodness....I am just sick of people calling from some energy saving windows company, or coming to my door selling me their church.

Invest in some Slayer and a good sound system. Nothing repels these types like Slayer belting out Jesus Saves.

Coming to work, and having literally nothing to do.

Many places have solicitation laws that apply if the home owner provides a visible "no solicitation" notice.

If no laws where you're at, you could lie and threaten to have them prosecuted for it. It may provide you a small bit of satisfaction seeing the looks on their faces.

As long as they're kind and courteous, I don't see the issue.

If you have a sign that says no soliciting, and they do it anyway, to hell with how kind and courteous they are.

Or ... coming to work, having tons to do, but having more motivation to surf OS than actually working. Not that I know anything about that.

When you're typing and you're thinking of one word, but type out a completely different word. I was proofreading on of my post and I had typed the word "when" in the place of "dog".

WTF? I was sorta with you then the example blew me away.



When people make ridiculous blanket statements.

I was trying to type "free space" today, and I typed "free agent" because I was thinking about baseball. Hate doing that.

That's what's aggravating about it. I mean, it's one thing if you accidentally type the word "own" instead of "on" or something else similar. However, typing completely random words is like WTH? It doesn't happen a lot, but I've done it twice today (I can't remember the other words). Is this some form of Dyslexia or something?

My brother is a Slayer guy - me, not so much - and I'd say "Disciple" would probably work better.

Sitting in a dorm room with a chick and having someone come in and ask the chick if I'm her dad.

Needless to say that was an awkward few seconds.

I'm going to pass on this one.

On-Topic: Someone playing goonball in Madden 13, then having the audacity to get mad when someone does it right back to them. Except better.
