The Things That Anger You Thread.

I just woke up 30 minutes ago for absolutely no reason, and now I can't get back to sleep. Fuuuuck.

[Guest Vitamin X]

I can actually pay my mortgage and pay for my wedding now.

 

.... whoa, whoa, WHAT?

That's what Nyquil is for

People wearing jeans on a golf course

[Lord of The Curry]

On that note, people dressed like a golfer when they're not on the course.

What's wrong w/ jeans on the golf course (unless the dress code prohibits it)?

You look like a hillbilly.

On what degree. I mean I wear polo shirts with khaki shorts or pants when I go out, but in no way I'm decking out the slacks dressed like Ian Poulter on a daily basis.

People who insist on letting people know that they knew about something first. Whether it's a particular band, movie, TV show or book, it really aggravates me when people need to say something along the lines of "Oh I knew about "insert band, movie, tv show, book etc. here* before it was popular".

[BruteSquad_BRODY]

My ex is leaving work for good in 1 day and now that she can't be affected is thrashing me badly to all the noobs

 

Awesome

I say that, but only really as a joke and to mock hipsters in general.

 

"Well, I knew about Gordon Ramsay before anybody else, soooo...yeah."

 

But I agree, I hate it too when people are completely serious about it.

[Guest Tzar Lysergic]

You decided to go with Gordon Ramsay in that example? Odd choice.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

I thought that too while I was writing it, but then I just said fuck it.

Sore throat. I'll take a dislocated elbow over a sore throat.

[Youth N Asia]

When a team is down like 25-7 and they land a sack, and do a celebration dance. I don't think you're allowed to show off when you're losing

[Youth N Asia]

This belief that Kerri Strug won the olympic gold by vaulting AND LANDING ON ONE LEG!!!

 

...no, she planted both feet firmly to land and then popped her bad foot up. Bitch would have snapped her ankle had she honestly landed on one foot

[BruteSquad_BRODY]

The Packers season going to shit

Fuck that noise. I can essentially wear any item of clothing I own anywhere I go.

 

Unless you mean what my brother calls "The Ikea Generation". Old-school golf attire like plaid and ridiculous colours?

[Guest Vitamin X]

The Packers season going to shit

 

Dude, it's week three and it was to the best team in the league. The fucking five seed in the NFC won the Super Bowl and beat the only 17-0 team in the history of the league since 1972. And lest we forget we had beaten the shit out of that same team who we later lost to in Week 2 of 2007.

[Kinetic]

A few injuries here and there, though...

 

No, Green Bay is still a good team. There'll be spleens a-poppin' in the Tampa heat this weekend, but I think y'all are going to be all right after that.

[PILLS! PILLS! PILLS!]

Every morning for nearly a week or two the dogs have been going batshit around 3 AM (ET). The couple of times that I bothered to get up and see what they wanted, a pickup truck has backed up (from across the street) and hooked a left down the street to our side (we're at a 3-way junction).

 

Tonight I am feeling compelled to turn off the lights and camp out to see if somebody has been actually approaching our property or if my dogs have been waking me up over nothing. Either one is possible. I don't know which one would piss me off less.

[Maztinho]

Even better is technically she didn't need to do the vault at all, they had enough points overall to win even if she scored zero.

The Packers season not going to shit

[Maztinho]

Old people digging through my salad display to find the best code date, and then when I point out that the second they open the bag the code date doesn't matter they get upset at me. I wouldn't mind this as much if 90% of people would make some attempt at putting the salads kinda back, I mean sometimes that just means tilting the front bag, but don't take all the salads off the shelf and the just leave them on the goddamn floor. Fuckin' stupid old people.

[Guest C*Z*E*C*H]

Do you preside over your produce department on some little podium or something? I've never seen anyone be so involved in so many customer interactions, in the produce department or elsewhere. Given that sometimes I just stand around muttering to myself that I can't find any goddamn ripe bananas, I sorta wish there was someone there to talk to me.

[Maztinho]

The store isn't that busy outside of a couple of days a week, so I usually interact with most people who do come into the department. It's story policy to "greet" any customer within a reasonable distance from you, but I was doing that before the policy was instituted anyways.

 

Typically.

 

Me: Finding everything okay?

 

Them: Yes.

 

or...

 

Them: Where's (such and such)?

 

Or something to that effect.

 

As for the bananas, buy green ones and keep them in the plastic bag. They'll be ripe in the morning.

[Guest C*Z*E*C*H]

Surprised you decided to forgo the obvious "your first problem was that you were in dairy" joke. That's cool. I guess Jewel-Osco is just really heartless.

Actually, we are owned by the same parent company, so they should in theory have the same guidelines. But then again, Utah is used a guinea pig for new programs, if they work here they institute them company wide. Fun fact, if you are in an Albertson's and you hear BTO's "Taking Care of Business" the employees are supposed to have a team huddle.

 

I usually take my break when I hear that song.

[Nighthawk]

I worked at Albertsons years ago, and I never heard that. But like you said, new programs.

 

Light 80s pop just makes me think of pornographic murder, largely due to American Psycho, but that means that I'm in a constant state of murderous fantasy when I grocery shop. Unless I shop at the discount grocery store, where they play oldies.
