Don't get me wrong, I like bananas, but I dont want everything tasting like bananas.

I think I'm going to have to fire my wife.

That shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S.

I feel the same way about mechanics. What a great racket:

"This is broken on your vehicle, we'll fix it"

*Fixes it*

"Uh, car is still broken"

Them - "Well, you'll have to pay us more money to keep fixing it"

I especially like when you give them the exact info they need and the leading cause of what creates said issue, and they ignore it.

I have two pet peeves:

1. When people bump the wrist shot Friday thread on a tuesday or monday. Or any day that is not Friday. It's not that hard people. It's right in the title.

2. When people post pet peeves in the not pet peeves thread because they are too lazy to find the pet peeves thread.

When someone sets it up to look like Buster NegRep'd zechs all the way into the red and then Buster slips in his own shit trying to accidentally take credit for it.

i was going to pos rep you something inspirational, but I can't rep you any more.

When clever people are saying clever things and I'm clever enough to know that they are being clever but I'm not clever enough to know why it's clever and I end up feeling less clever.

Add the guy who's always posting in the "post your latest purchase" and hasn't actually talked about their own latest purchase

Having to manage my normal work email/calendar, as well as separate client-domain email/calendar manually. Cant integrate the two due to information/security.

To add an addt'l level of complication, I usually just get a client laptop that has my new email/outlook/teams on it, but current client isn't giving out laptops and we have to work in an Amazon WorkSpace virtual desktop.

Don’t you have someone to do that shit for you?

Don't get an EA til my next promo. Regardless, it wouldn't help here as I wouldn't be able to give said EA access to both calendars.

When people stand up on planes as soon as it pulls into the gate. Sit down Gertrude and Frank, you're in row 33, grabbing your carry on bag won't do shit to speed up the process.

It must be taught at a young age, because this shit happens on the school bus every damn day!! It takes every ounce of self discipline to not suddenly stomp on the brake and send those little brats flying down the aisle!!

Canadian's who have that exaggerated Cannaddieeeen accent. You know the type. It's a "car" not a "kearhh" Also, people who are obsessed with Tim Horton's. And complain about how lousy the service is but still faithfully line up at the drive through 7 days a week. Typically these issues are combined.

Are you just complaining about east coasters? Is that a hate crime?

At the same time though, it's such a piss off when the people don't even start moving until the row in front has emptied. Then they have to get up, grab all their crap, figure out where they put their carry on and struggle to get it before finally getting off the damn plane. Bonus points for when their carry on is in the overhead bins a couple rows behind where they are sitting.

no thanks to the people who bring 3 bags but put none of them under the seat in front like they're supposed to.
also the row 33'er who's standing in the aisle so no-one can move backwards to get their bag.

The costco gas line guy who is pissed off he has to wait so long...
and then pulls up to spend time looking for his wallet and a full minute deciding between regular or premium gas
