    People. Work. Reality.


    Those things are like, totatally annoying and what-not.


    Oh, and those God foresaken toilet seat covers that take an entire "I'm gonna shit in my pants" minute to successfully place around the rim and punch out the middle. Talk about stress.

    People who drive > 10 miles under the speed limit (see: 90% of Oregonians).

    People who drive in the left lane on a highway/freeway and don't pass anyone (see: 90% of Oregonians).

    Spectators who feel the need to lean forward at live sporting events, completely blocking the view of the court/field for the person behind them.

    Lap dogs.

    MIXUM.

    Mac snobs.

    iPhone snobs.

    The people who actually approve scripts for movies like Bride Wars.

    MIXUM.

    Yelling at the tv during a sporting event. I have to watch games in a separate room for this reason.

    When people start threads with half of a question or comment in the thread title and the other half in the message. like if the title says "do you think..." and then you click on it and it says "...that Sergio likes pepperoni or cheese?"

    The NFL not letting anyone call the Superbowl as the "Superbowl".

    Hearing all these commercials about "the big game".


    LAME.

    You could take a dump on a pizza and I'd still love it. After all, it's pizza.

    NBA players who constantly bitch to the refs after every play.

    :check:

    I was at a Nuggets/Blazer game in Denver and the team arranged some third row tickets for me across from the Blazer bench. I'm not used to sitting that low, so I didn't quite understand how well they could hear me.

    Z-Bo missed a shot, thought he was fouled and was whining to the ref while play was moving to the other end. I stand up and yell "God dammit, Zach, stop bitching and go and play some defense!"

    Zach turns directly toward me and glares. I throw up my hands in mock surrender and say "My bad". He then turns and trots down the floor.

    Nate McMillan then yells to me, "No, you're right. Keep on telling him!"

    It was a great little moment for me.

    I am enraged anytime I see someone litter, I feel like running up and punching them in the small of the back.

    That's a great story.

    Ditto me for players who whine about calls all the time. One thing I love about our team is that they RARELY cry to the refs.

    Actors who talk about how hard their work is.

    Actors who talk about their in-depth "research" for a role - oooh, they rode around in a cop car for an afternoon!
