    What about if they dumped half a bottle of Tabasco in there? Would you say that they love your chicken soup?

    I thought Marco Polo brought spaghetti back with him from Asia. Should we be looking for proper eating technique from Asia rather than Italy?

    Well, I have done that before. But that was more due to living with 10 college students and having 1 clean fork in the house.

    Frankly, no, and I've never seen a male fetus masturbating either.

    People that ignore the right lane on a highway when it's completely open and clear. Or people that drive the same speed as the car next to them and never try to get over. I commute too much =[

    Smacking your mouth while eating, slurping soup, talking during a movie, people that try to turn everything you talk about into a political debate, people who push agendas because they feel the need to point out something, people that get butthurt over nothing

    I actually get a kick out of that. I really like it when they use "irregardless" because it's not really a word.

    People who think LeBron James is smarter than a fifth grader.

    TV News shows who report celebrity gossip.

    Karaoke.

    People who call figure skating a "sport".

    Duck fans who inexplicably think those clown costumes are cool.

    People who tag me on Facebook in pictures that I'm not in.

    People who tag me on Facebook in images of Sasquatch because they think it's the same as tagging me in an image of Chewbacca.

    $1000.00/month customers who demand more stroking and attention than any three $50K+/month customers combined.

    People who choose to be offended by tasteless humor.

    Chinese mustard in packets when I clearly and emphatically requested house mustard.

    Butterscotch.

    Music playing in the arena when the ball or puck is in play.

    And one from my distant, DISTANT past: Being offered a line of cocaine, then finding out the hard way that it was actually crank.

    Incredibly no one has mentioned telemarketers.

    I got a call last night, naturally in the middle of dinner & NBA Finals. I'm trying to answer while swallowing mouthful of food. This woman says HI ___ (not my name) I'm calling from Ravenswood Winery where you did a tour last month. I said I did a tour but that's not my name. She said she must have it down wrong and proceeded to try to give me a pitch to buy more wine. I told here ma'am you do not want to telemarket me because if you do I will NEVER buy from you again and I liked your wine, so let's pretend this conversation never happened, OK?

    I mean it. If it's someone with whom I've done business I give them one chance - don't call again. If it's someone with whom I have never done business I tell them they've guaranteed I never will (and yes I'm on every do not call list). Same for the idiots who stuff their ads in my mailbox or doorknob, they always blow off and I have to clean them up from my garden.
