It's snowing with a constant 15-25mph north wind. Wait until this batch of nastiness goes east. They've had enough!

What if every spider I've ever crushed thought it was living in my house with me the whole time and one day I just flew off the handle and murdered it? Like it just thought we were hanging out together...

huh · March 10th, 2013, 12:39 AM

They do!

Wait... What? You murder spiders when you get mad?

Stupid user error.. Wake up early on a Monday morning, just to play Skyrim, after spending an hour and a half last night installing a new water cooler on my gaming pc.. And it won't turn on.
User error = not plugging in the water pump. Fans work, but pump was not plugged it.

You can add handicapped people parking in handicapped zones in such a way that no other person who is entitled to park there, can. I've seen them block almost all of the area for a lift van by parking cattywampus. I've watched them do it and make no effort to park right.

Aspergers was declassified as being on the autism spectrum this year by the AMA.. some people are upset about it because it might cut much needed educational funding and support for those who think differently than the median...it's sad and frustrating that our educational system won't or can't accomodate or acknowledge different learning styles and multiple intelligences...without the need for classifying .......hopefully some day soon

When I go to a store/shop/restaurant and the employees have very bad customer service and aren't friendly and or lazy.

Or know nothing about what they are supposed to be selling! I've run into that a few times.

Very strongly , Agree . And then at this moment of tolerating rudeness or whatever the case maybe for certain amount of time . I speak up I'm very blunt. I speak my mind

"Wall mountable (mount not included)"

... and apparently non-existent. WTF do you advertise a feature but don't freakin' sell the kit to utilize it?

When it rains when temperatures make the rain freeze when it gets to the ground... 3 weekends in a row, kills weekend plans.. it needs to stop

huh · March 15th, 2013, 07:09 PM

kids these days....

I was just talking with a long time friend I first met in middle school...
we were laughing and noting that if kids today acted like we did...they would be thrown in jail all zero tolerence style... or suspended..or for sure their parents would be called...

we got away with everything... people ..were more laid back I guess.couple of my teachers would just write me a pass so I would be excused from being late from lunch..where only seniors were allowed to leave..but I look like myolder sister(2 yrs) older... and I would just take her car..and license as I had a copy) but it looked more like me that her so she got another and gave me her other on....um.....mistake number 1..I was only 14

the kids now...at least the one's i know...are more....mature? immature?wise??
maybe beacause they were raise by a different generation..
.my paren't were both kind of 1960's Hippies..from kind of well to do familes they...both were very young when they got married mom was 20 dad was 22
and no .. it didn;t last...they divorced when I was maybe 6?

but..Teachers would write me passes to get out of other classes ..cover for me if went out for a long lunch or skipped a class..etc... crazy.....that stuff would never happen noe

WHAT HAPPENED TO SPRING???? awww come on!!!!!

zuben el genub · March 16th, 2013, 09:11 AM

Your generation could be nasty at times (peer pressure) but nothing like the crap they pull today. Facebook has not helped. Hate pages, bullying, fighting - all this seems to be acceptable to some kids and parents. The few that behave in this manner are making it impossible for the more responsible, reasonable group to even function.

Out here - it's Colorado Weather, that's what happened. 80 degrees one week and a blizzard the next. I forget which, but I think it's August that might not have had measurable snow in Denver. We've had snow on Memorial Day, and Labor Day. The higher the elevation - snow at any time all year.

The saying goes, wait a couple of hours and it will change.

I called a co-worker out when I caught him using one, and he had the audacity to ask me if I wanted to play against him a couple days later.

Shampoo and conditioner bottles that look identical except for the key word in fine print on a wall of text on the front of the bottle, where I have to mark them with a big S or C with an El Marko if I don't want to stand around reading labels in the shower.

On a similar line the fact nobody ever told me not to shampoo my hair in the shower because it runs down your body when you rinse and everybody knows shampoo adds volume and body...no wonder I'm gaining weight!

Buy different brands of shampoo and conditioner.

I use L'oreal brand cleansing conditioner..it's kind of new...year or two? but it's great and you can buy it at a drug store

TheAtheistReverend · March 19th, 2013, 08:43 PM

Shampoo and conditioner.

I shave my head. When I had hair, I used bar soap.
