    Radar cruise control, especially in Toyotas where you can’t turn it off. If I wanted to hang out behind every mouth breather on the road varying their speed I would. Having to wade through sub menus and in some cases even cycling the ignition after to turn it off is annoying as hell.

    If somebody calls XYZ company and says "I want this", don't god damn question them as to why.

    This somebody being me, I will tell you to fuck off, and immediately give you a 0 or 1 rating anywhere I possibly can.

    It's like a reversal of a waste of time. I am calling to pay you to do a thing. Quote the fucking thing. Don't waste my time with your thoughts, if I wanted them, I'd ask.

    This is strictly for product/hardware, not services/processes/projects. These are two different types of sales.

    Companies that go to the trouble of posting job openings on their website, and links to nice PDF of job descriptions for each job, but no link or suggestion as to how to actually apply. No email, no web-form, nothing. I think I know why they have so many job openings! Oil and Gas is pretty tech-savvy...

    That is pretty annoying. And I find it's far more prevalent if you're buying something "high-end" and it's like you have to pass the cool-guy test or know the secret handshake with the sales wiener in order to qualify for purchase.

    See this money? Exchange for goods now, plz.
    K thanx.

    The thought had occurred to me that the problem might be on my end. I'll PM you the company and you can make you own assumptions.

    That's (sometimes) the curse of the written word and the interpretation of tone or even the tone of the atmosphere that people perceive differently.

    Now bend over while I NegRep you viciously!!

    I bought something online a few weeks back, they called me the following week and interrogated me on what industry I worked in, and then refused to sell it to me. It was a $30 car part.

    I remember one time I was trying to buy some springs from McMaster carr for a university project and they accused me of trying to violate Iranian sanctions as an excuse to not sell to me.

    Had to front our lab tech cash to order it through the departments account to get them to sell to me which was stupid.

    Like 27 dollars lol

    I was taking a piss at the movie theater on Saturday night. Small bathroom, one stall one urinal. Stall pops open and some goth looking loser chick who was probably in her early teens comes out and proceeds to start washing her hands slowly. She had a "I dare you to say something transphobic boomer" look on her face. I hated her, her worldview, her stupid make-up and everything about her immediately.
