Pet peeves that should be pet peeves

"Movember"
You realize it's not pronounced Moe-Stash, right? It's moustache = mustashe. Subbing a fuckin M into November relates as much to moustaches as any other forced rhyme by someone with the lyrical depth of Puddle Of Mud (both literally and figuratively).
And looking like a registered sex offender isn't even cool on Halloween, let alone for weeks afterward. You're a grown-ass man with an actual job as a professional. Go die in a fire, or at least long enough to burn that shit streak off your face. No one cares about your male butt cancer, anyway because females have it way the fuck worse.

But(t) really, the name Movember is exceptionally stupid. That's my pert perve.

I think your anger is misplaced here. Lol

This seems like it belongs in the "peeves that shouldn't be peeves" thread. Along with mine, that it's 'Movember' not 'Beardvember'.

You're supposed to grow a pedo-stache, not a grizzly adams

I debated the same thing. I'm a master debater.
In the end, I felt there was enough vitriol to stay here.

I worked with this idiot Dilbert style boss who took incredible joy in explaining Movember some Germans visiting from another plant.
It still gives me a chubby recalling the completely flat look on their faces after his pathetic explanation to people who barely spoke English and obviously would not understand - like anyone with two brain cells could've seen a mile away.

No shave November existed prior to Movember, so some people still follow the original nomenclature.

I got lazy and didn’t shave because WFH last week and everyone thought it was some kind of a cause lol

I shaved to shut that shit down.

Spent $60 on chicken at Superstore yesterday. Load my offers today and see the 20% off chicken offer show up. Happens a lot with other products but this one pisses me off because i couldve saved $12 if the offer was there yesterday. Just lovely.

Gah... Continuation of my previous school communications rant. Teacher email, now he's picking white on black in addition to terrible font.

I had to voice my displeasure at the school last week about it. After an email arrived with a few sentences, a few linked PDFs from the alberta government website, a 3rd party hosting service to download a stupid 9mb pdf (scanned, crooked) of a school letter on letterhead but pretty irrelevant, and a youtube video.

No structure, no consistency, if you didn't download look at or watch all of it none of it was consolidated anywhere.

Sounds like CBE should hire some PPT EITs

Wow. This is so incredibly unprofessional, I'm pretty surprised this is allowed.

Companies that take 11 months to issue you with an invoice, and they hassle you for payment before the 30 days of your "net 30" terms are up. Come on, please fuck right off.

Wind. My #1 most hated weather. Probably #2 and #3 as well. Summer wind sucks. Spring wind sucks. All wind sucks. Fuck the wind.

Wind + Rain

Rain is cool when is a nice warm gentle rain, you know, the opposite of what we get. Cold hard giant drops blowing sideways.

this sounds like a place I used to work at.

6-9 months to bill it, but you should have paid that 30 days after the service was done. You should know better.

My personal best was a company that sent me an invoice 14 months after the service was performed, and they didn't have a signed field ticket, and the guy they needed a signature from had been laid off more than 6 months ago.

Doesn't your company have a requirement to get invoiced within 90 days or something after services are performed or they don't get paid? Lol. Fuck em.

This would drive me crazy, I get it we have to do daily blogs which no one ever read, but even if they do; why the hell would you choose to present material like that?!?

Its not hard to simply use basic text and normal files, nobody cares if you make it fancy...
