Party at ExtraSlow's house? LET'S CRASH THIS THING!

Yeah, i meant friends of my kids, not my friends. I never invite my friends over.

[SKR]

When my goddamn cup a soup boils over in the microwave.

[birdman86]

At Best Buy just now to buy a memory card. Literally in the store for 90 seconds and at least half a dozen employees had already asked me if I needed a hand. Pretty sure I spent more time saying no thanks than actually looking at the cards. Fuck is that annoying.

Oh and how about that random 80 zone on hwy 1 east of Chestermere what’s that all about

[ThePenIsMightier]

These new six-pack can rings.
Finally someone found a way to use 26x more plastic to solve a problem that never existed and attach them so tightly that I have to shake my beer and dent the can to get it released.
The inventor is worse. Than. Hitler.

That random 80 zone has had a ton of deaths linked to it. Just do 80 there. Cops are always there anyways.

Soo, in a very small neighbourhood, where virtually no one has driveways, we aren't allowed to street park for 4 fucking days, including the entire weekend.

When you buy a stock/security/ETF and it takes a dip immediately after you acquire it lol

If it’s a long term investment it’s not that big of a deal, but there’s just something mildly irritating about that initial little burn haha

[heavyfuel]

People at the gym or buffet who leave the washroom without washing their hands. Or any public place for that matter. Fucking dirty savages.

I don't know if this belongs in this thread or the other one, but when someone you have on your ignore list posts in a thread that is relevant to you, then you click to see what they wrote, and get dragged into an argument with them. I gotta learn to trust my ignore list.

Or try and get smarter.

Another pet peeve, when forum members read partial posts then respond to the part they didn't like to start arguments.

And then non-stop complain about why Toronto is better.

Probably somebody from the West coast. In BC it is normal to call it a Hydro bill... because it is from BC Hydro, not because the power is from a hydroelectric dam

In Calgary I used to call my utility bill my Enmax bill... same sort of thing. It is in reference to the company you are paying.

Yeah I think Ontario and Quebec too. I've been readin a lot of threads on the /r/personalfinancecanada and almost every budget refers to it as hydro lol.

nobody said pet peeves have to be rational
