Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2007 Yes, Heelys. When I worked at a sporting goods store which was actually really more of a shoe store, we sold a million of those things a day. They ain't cheap, either. That was seriously what we sold the most of out of anything. I also hate them because of that experience. The store was in the ghetto, so because they were high profile, expensive, and easy to steal, they were all up on this really high shelf. So every time somebody wanted some, you had to go to the back, drag out a ladder and then look through box after box for the right color and size. Did I mention there wasn't even a halfhearted attempt to organize them? There wasn't. One time I found some clearance ones in a size 13 (we usually only stocked them to size nine), and there was no question in my mind that I was buying them until I tried them on. I almost killed myself. Kids make that shit look easy. It ain't. Low center of gravity, I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianGuitarist 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 I've noticed this a lot lately, or more accurately, it's been irritating me a lot lately: People who describe, say, a scene in a movie that has music in it. "First, she kills him. Then, ALL YOU HEAR is that song that played in the beginning" "All you see" seems to be said a lot as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 The HORDES of people that stop at convenience stores in the morning to get coffee. COFFEE COFFEE, GOTTA GET COFFEE. Wouldn't it be more cost-effective & time-efficient to brew a pot at home, then pour a cup on your way out the door? Maybe it's because I don't drink the stuff, but I just don't get it.

You're a lameass white kid. You live in suburban Kenosha and your daddy is a systems analyst. Take off the FUBU jersey and get over yourself. I second this. I'm glad this thread got bumped cause I was going to search it out after my interaction with my neighbor this morning. Backstory; First, My apartment complex has assigned parking, one spot per apartment with a handful of visitor spots in the corners of the lot (which isn't big anyways, so walking from a visitor spot isn't a hardship for anyone able to walk 50 yards and not collapse). Second, nobody lives in the apartment to either side of me, nor the one above me. Now, my mom was in town for a cousin's wedding and she came over to use the internet to check her e-mails and whatnot because my grandparents where she was staying have no access, I told her of the assigned parking, but told her to park in the spot directly to the right of my car since nobody lives in that apartment so it's "free game" I also told her that sometimes one of the other people parks their second car in the spot and if that was the case to park two spots to either the right or the left of my car which are assigned to the apartment on either side of me. She parked directly to the right of me, and left around 9:30 pm to head back to my grandparents. When I head out to my car this morning the girl who parks her second car in the spot to the right of me was pulling out, but she stopped and rolled down her window. Girl: Do you know the owner of a Silver Honda? (Mom's car) Me: Yeah, it was my mom, she was visiting from out of town. Girl: My husband and I are going to call Leavitt (The land company in charge of the apartments) and complain. She was parked in our spot. Me: She parked in C10, which is empty. It's not your spot. Girl: Well we use it. Me: That's fine, but you have no claim to it. It's a free spot, if anything you are violating the rules by parking a second car in the lot since the lease says second vehicles should be parked on the street. Girl: We are still going to complain. Me: Go ahead, my mom did nothing wrong, and you have no claim. Then she sped off, funny thing is the woman in charge of our complex came in shopping at my job and I gave her a heads up about it and she just laughed and told me that those two are always complaining about ticky tacky shit and not to worry. Still I was pissed like all day about it. Man, I do sound like an old man. Damn you kids, stay off my lawn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

migoli 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 I'm probably gonna sound pretty arrogant saying this, but casual sports fans have been pissing me off a lot lately. Why I'm better than most: I'm a pretty casual baseball fan. I can name the better teams, some of the better players, etc. throughout the league, but essentially just follow the Jays. I will not however, do the following: "Who's your favourite player?" " Oh, I don't know any of the players, really" Or, this one, which is a bajillion times more irritating, especially at work, since the only Habs fans there are me, and one of the assistant managers. As such, my tattoo is often a hot topic of discussion. "You have a Habs tattoo? Why? They suck!" I suppose this relates more to my previous rant about misuse of the word 'suck', but if you like a team that's not better, or can't even name a player on the team that's supposedly so much better than mine, or DON'T EVEN REALLY LIKE HOCKEY, don't comment on my ink. I get the same damn thing at my job, I have the Minnesota Twins "TC" on my arm and i get alot of "TWINS SUCK!!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2008 Haha, Kenosha. That place sucks. If you're southbound on the Tri-State right before the state line, there are like three roadside porn shops in a row. I've never actually been to Kenosha, WI, but was moreso using it as a composite. It sounds pretty darn white to me. The wiggers down here, in the Hoosier State, are even worse. You get everything that's horrible about white people plus the ambition of trying to be "gangsta." I have to put up with PG-13 on a daily basis. Also, I wonder what sort of promotions those porn shops try to run, since they have to compete with one another.

I know too many people who use that, and even worse, use "stood" as the past tense of stay. As in, "I stood the night at her place the other day." Idiots. Slang/abbreviations/word combos are okay at times. I use "gonna" instead of "going to" (not in the sense of traveling somewhere, but saying I plan to do something) but that other stuff is just plain ignorant.

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2008 This doesn't anger me, per say, but it's a bit annoying to see guys use the "athletic" option on MySpace to describe their body type when it's clearly not true. Just because you weigh 120 pounds and see some definition along with your ribs doesn't mean you've got an athletic body. Likewise, if you have some muscle, but also a gut and some breasts to match, you don't have an athletic body type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All those guys would go with that. What I hate about myspace is the white kids with their hats on sideways and their chin straps throwing up a peace sign with the absolute worse slang written across their page.

tekcop 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2008 My girlfriend's OCD means she just has to keep our TiVo "Now Playing" list as neat as possible. She deletes everything, even stuff that hasn't been watched just because it bothers her. She even goes in and permanently deletes the stuff in the "Recently Deleted" list. And yellow dot next to stuff that's set to get deleted to make room when necessary... nope! It either has to be set to "never delete" or it's gone. She spent 10 minutes earlier today going through the list and "cleaning it up." I wanted to strangle her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
