It would be fantastic if people in our society stopped expressing themselves with sentence fragments.

The worse feeling is when you got to wake up early the next morning but aren't even able to fall asleep. If you're up late cause you're doing other stuff(even like just being on OS) that's one thing cause then it's on you, but if you're actually trying hard to fall asleep but can't,then it just sucks.

Doesn't happen to me all the time, but when it does,really hate it,cause sometimes I can get a few hours of sleep in a night and be fine for the next day, and other times even if I get 7-8 hours sleep,I'd still be so tired that following day.

On a somewhat related note, hate how I got some meeting tomorrow that was announced less than 24 hours before it happens. Had things planned out for tomorrow, now most of that won't happen cause of this.

Sunday nights. Just knowing the weekend is pretty much over depresses me greatly. I hate it.

Trashmen. It is pouring rain today. Took my garbage can (with flip lid) to the curb. They came about 5 minutes later, dumped the trash in the truck, and left the can in the middle of the street with the lid open. Had a nice little pool in my trash can. The level of laziness to not put the can back on the curb which is 2 feet away from them astounds me.

^People still have garbage cans?

I never knew garbagemen could come a few minutes late....since when is there a timeframe on that? I'd consider anything before 5pm to be regular time. I've seen them pick up stuff as early as 7:30am, and as late as 8pm.

The part to hate though is when they leave the bins somewhere like at the edge of the driveway or on the sidewalk. So you basically have to stop in the middle of the street(assuming no car is behind you) to quickly get out and move the bins before someone else does drive down the street and starts getting mad at you stopping in middle of street.

Don't get how hard it is to put the bins back properly. I've even had times where they put the garbage bin on someone elses property.....They pick up house by house,but somehow when returning the bin,they just took it with them and put it by the neighbors lawn.

People who can't pick up their feet when they walk. Every now and then is one thing, but doing it consistently gets on my nerves.

I said they came 5 minutes later. Like after I put it to the curb. Not late. Haha. I don't care what time they come. I just hate the laziness of leaving it in the middle of my street.

To coincide with this: the neighbor who leaves their empty trashcans out for the next 5 days.

You're nitpicking over the word can vs bin?

What's the difference anyway?

It must be a slow day.

lol. I wasn't nitpicking, I was just seeing if people still have those aluminum garbage cans or not since I haven't seen one in forever.

Semantics.

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

I've always considered a bin to be an open top container (ie: recycling bin).

Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

So I guess the answer is, "Yes, people do still have garbage cans."
