Pet peeves that should be pet peeves

Should say "my dad supervises by leaning on a shovel here (sometimes)".

Poor online reviews when they misunderstand the product they are buying.

See: https://www.costco.ca/Intuit-TurboTa...100457603.html

Like what part of "ONLINE EDITION" do they not understand?

When you pvr the game, avoid social media and somehow your phone sends you the final score before you watch it, even though it's never done that before.

Also, when your kid has a medical test that requires them (and you) to wake up at 4am, and you can't fall asleep the night before, even though you always fall asleep super fast. Fitbit says I got four and a half hours of sleep. Gross.

When people modify their Kijiji ad title to say "SOLD SOLD SOLD."

The fuck? Just delete and remove the ad.

The amount of commercials with a doorbell chime...

As much as we have tried to train the reaction to the sound from our dog, she loses her shit every time she hears it... Small dog, very loud shrill bark

Companies that make claims about how quickly they will ship goods, but then have no accountability after the fact.

Ordered some wifi ap’s 3 weeks ago on a website that claimed in stock (and inventories accurate to last 15 minutes!) and ships same day. When I call in 2 weeks later to see wtf is going on they seem annoyed with me for even concerned and calling. Half convinced they fucked up on pricing and are trying to freeze me out to get me to cancel my order (prices 20% below market).

That reminds me about similar complaints made about radio commercials with sirens / crash / honking noises in them, which is not only equally annoying but actually quite dangerous.

At home though - who watches commercials anymore? Haha.

Wind. It can fuck right off pretty much every day of the year.

Preach. Wind is the worst element. It makes literally any weather condition worse. Yes, you read that right... on a sunny hot day, I'd rather roast my balls off with no breeze than have wind blowin around.

Bunch of kite haters up in here.

My most hated weather 100% is wind. Give me -40, +40, rain, snow, sleet, just keep the wind out of here.

When we were a boating family, it ruined boating days

It ruins my pictures

It ruins my drone flying

It's generally unpleasant to be in at all times

Rain is right up there too for all the same reasons pretty much haha. Maybe I should go live in the desert.

See I can take the rain, because we get so few rainy days in Calgary. What's it rain, like ten time a year?

My problem is Calgary rain is so fucking cold and hard. You can't enjoy a nice summer rainfall like you can elsewhere.

A brief look at historicals suggests June and July are our rainiest months, with an average of 19 days and 15 days of rain respectively, each with 80mm total rain per month. What counts as a rainy day I don't know. There are only 4 months with historically less than 5 days of rain, and that is Nov-Feb, and I am sure that is made up in snow haha. It's basically a bell curve with June/July at the peak for rainfall and # of rainy days. Calgary also enjoys a hail season and a smoke season which were not listed.

UPS won't let me change my delivery until after the first attempt to deliver is made.

I know I won't be home tomorrow, there's no point in even trying to deliver. I am however at the airport all fucking day, SO LET ME FUCKING PICK IT UP.
