What's annoyed you today?
7:35 AM and the paperboy just made my list of people that pissed me off.

He threw the newspaper halfway down the driveway.

I don't expect the paper on the porch but why did he make me walk an extra 20 feet to get it?

Couldn't he just toss it so it would be closer to my door?

1. The COLD wind!
1/2 the windows on the south side of my house are out and, although my wonderful contractor has put plastic/foam board up, the wind and sounds are coming through. I can feel the cool breeze and can hear every damn noise out there!

Sorry about the paperboy.

2. You should move to Conner Beach
It's always a balmy 78 degrees there.

What were you doing in the 1980s when you should have been listening to WXYC?

7. She saved you from squirrels or bunnies that were about to fuck you up
And that's how you thank her?

By claiming she's annoying?

You just made my list.

9. She barks like a maniac just because she wants in the bedroom
The door is open, she could come right in but if one of the other dogs is in her way she starts barking even though there's plenty of room to walk around him and come in. When you didn't go to bed until almost midnight it is very annoying.

27. At least your paper deliverer didn't write a nasty note to you after
Edited on Sat Dec-06-08 05:13 PM by Jamastiene
not delivering the paper for 4 days straight. My aunt got a nasty note with her paper today. She called yesterday to ask if they would send out Wednesday's paper. That's all she asked for, not the other days that were missed.

What she got was papers for the last 4 days and a nasty note that said, "Your paper was delivered every day" There was no exclamation point but there was a ripped hole (as in an angry type of writing) in the paper at the end of the y in day.

My aunt is pissed off royally now. I am too. What an fucking asshole. All she asked for was Wednesday's paper even though we are paid up for 3 months.

I have :nopity: for that paper delivery person.

Whoever they are, they are about to get it. BIG TIME.

They won't like my aunt when she is angry.

And if they piss me off enough, they can forget it. I have a big back yard and no conscience WHATSOEVER. I'm dead inside when it comes to people and my back hurts today. I don't think anyone wants to fuck with me today.

29. The morons in this town who don't know how to navigate a traffic circle
Damned thing's been there for 100 years, maybe longer (my knowledge of town history is nebulous at best), but drivers STILL either sit there at the yield sign when there are no cars in the traffic circle (waiting for what, I have no idea) or barrel through the yield when there ARE cars in the circle (usually mine). At least I get to give my car horn a good workout on a regular basis.

Oh yeah, and Mr. MG. We're still not speaking. It's been three days. I'm not inclined to start again anytime soon unless I get a sincere apology, and I don't see one on the horizon.

32. PMS!
"You know you're old when . . . . "

the paperboy doesn't throw the newspaper close enough to your door! Guess what, kids don't even KNOW that 20 feet from the door is a ways off.


But, seriesly ~~ if it landed on your property I'd say you have got a pretty good paperboy . . . . or papergirl as the case may be.

39. I was a paper carrier when I was a kid...
I always managed to get the paper to the door. And if it was windy, rainy, or snowy, I'd put the paper behind the screen door or under the doormat. I don't understand why that's so tough for contractors these days.

42. Two dipshits who stood with their carts in a teeny, tiny little grocery aisle, just to chat.
It's a small natural/organic food store, but there were lots of other places to stand around and talk. Totally oblivious to the rest of us having to squeeze around them or postpone shopping in that aisle because of all the space they were taking up.

Assholes.
