What irritates you?

Submitted by ares on


somthing irking you? pissing you off? rant about it here.




 

Terry

I could and should have burned copies. I copied all my replacement cds after our place was broken into up north a few years back. They got a good chunk of my music then too.

So what's the deal with stealing CDs?

I had two Kenny Rogers, a Peter Paul and Mary, James Taylor, and Nickelback. Not exactly everyone's taste in music.

Just ticks me off.

Ares and I still talk about how fun that was

Thanks KAT. Although this new Dr. I seen today chalked it up to stress and gave me a referral to see a surgeon about the bumps on my arm. I think I'll get more results with the surgeon and possibly a referral to the Dr. I actually want to see about everything. Hopefully an entire weekend dedicated to rest will help out tremendously.

Sorry you had to go through that crap with the stones. Ouch!

At least you're wiser because of it anyway.

irritates: someone used all the good ground coffee and all the whole bean in the break room, and went out and bought cheap crap.

Came in to make my french press this morning, and it's like Folders or something...

it's gross - I demand! good coffee.

this isn't really an irritant - kinda

more of a whoops with a "it figures" condentation!

squeezing the gluestick hard to have the end/tip shoot off against the wall and glue liquid all over the keyboard, envelopes and desk and wall. kinda funny when it happened. then it happened again a bit later but not hitting the wall. <POP!> I'm done glueing now. shedding the glue from my fingertips, kinda like pealing the dead skin off a sunburn.

oh man I hear you there Vino.

My roommate used to be a coffee fanatic, but then he's been out of work for years and decided Folgers tastes good.

I lost respect for him after that.

Losing 40 pounds since May. (270-230) Not really irritates if I can keep it off after I feel better. I just hope I don't end up looking like an Aids patient. I was comforted by the doctor who said that it was good that I had plenty to spare. :angry: :sheepish:

Having my job responsibilities redone with the other 2 support staff to make way for 2 more professionals being brought into the team - they took away EVERYTHING I enjoy doing and what I am good at... my events! :angry:

My boss is making it sound like this is a great thing because I will only have to support one person (him) instead of 4 which will free up my time to do more administrative work...... I hate administrative work - events was the only thing keeping me here..

And he tells me today so I can stew all weekend - happy friken friday!

Anyone want to come over for a bonfire tonight and drink with me?

Whenever anyone wants to come up, there will be a fire and good friends.

The only thing left up in the air right now is that Inks needs to have some shoulder surgery that isn't scheduled yet. Irritating about workman's comp that they are dragging their feet on that.

We are going up in the morning so if anyone wants to fly up the freeway, we'll be there.

My sister had some surgery this afternoon so we're waiting to be sure everything is okay there.

You're on! I need his newest - Water and Bridges and the Ultimate something or another greatest hits...two CD set with a black cover of Kenny Rogers and the JTs greatest hits would be way cooler!

The one that got stolen was the two CD greatest hits I believe. What others do you have? I've always enjoyed their music. Folk music in general is always nice.

I wasn't trying to get political in here.

It was just a general statement I'm pretty sure anyone would agree with whether they agree upon the solution or not.

For Terry and whomever may like the music:

James Taylor's Greatest Hits:Download Link
http://rapidshare.com/files/132487557/TerrysTunes_JT.zip.html

Kenny Rogers Greatest Hits:Download Link
http://rapidshare.com/files/132487559/TerryTunes_Kenny.zip.html

The songs are saved in MP3 format - iTunes Tracks. One of my 'Hobbies' - I take all the old greatest hits songs I have on CD (and some on tape), and trace them back to the original albums they came from. Hopefully, if you import them into iTunes, you'll see the Original album art, Track number and Year that they came out.

There are a few extra tracks that are not on any Greatest Hits album, too - I included the Taylor Song "Our Town" from the Cars Soundtrack Album (a damn fine album in its own right).

irritates: the ups whose battery died the other day...

for a "smart" ups this thing is dumb as a box of rocks. can't recompute it has more than 2 minutes of runtime remaining, and if you pull the plug it starts shutting the computer down.

right now the cable is disconnected from the computer and the power cord is out from the wall. been that way for 16 minutes now. still going.

so, if coolercrew.com suddenly disappears in the next half hour or so, its because the battery went dead trying to relearn how much capacity it has. don't worry, it'll be back up fast.
