Your irrational pet peeves

Door bells in commercials!

The little dog at home starts. Then, dog two and three. Dog three has a baritone bark that rattles windows.

If I ever meet the wise guy that put that door bell in the commercial selling dryer sheets, I think dog three has a bark made just for the occasion.

I feel the same way about police sirens on the radio.

Car horns in radio commercials. I want to personally do harm to everyone at an ad agency who does this.

I was in the car one day listening to a G Love song and there's a part where there's a car screeching its tires like it can't stop... I was sitting at a stop light at the time. Scared the crap out of me.

The quick touch automatic window on the driver's side door. Meant to free up my hands; instead, boggles my mind

If I stop it halfway down, when I try to "one-touch" it back up, it goes down.

Drives me nuts. Dealership says there's nothing they can do.

IT AIN'T RIGHT!

And here I thought holding the door open for someone was being friendly. Well I won't be caught being sexist anymore, I'll slam the door shut from now on... So stupid.

All of Canada is sexist.

HOW DARE YOU ASSUME THAT WOMEN NEED ANYTHING YOU SEXIST PIG!?

So if they make sandwiches for us, is that reverse sexism?

If so, I'm ok with being degraded.

Ah but if she makes the sandwich for you or her, then you are expecting her to be in the kitchen, which makes you sexist. How dare you sir!

I am. When my mother was alive, I'd always say my mother would yell at me if she found out I didn't hold a door for a woman, and it was true.

Exactly. It's the dang Kobayashi Maru.

Yep, I'm not in the habit of rereading my posts

Post Office pricing. Had to send a single sheet document to Poland ASAP. $47. Sending packages overall seems so much more expensive than just a few years ago, probably 3 times. I even compared pricing for same-sized package between USPS, UPS, Fedex... more or less the same. Too much.

[mikey287]

Last time I sent a flat-rate priority envelope to Europe it was $15. I can't even think of a way to get to $47 if it was a normal-sized piece of paper and they didn't intentionally rob you. Did you send something next-day air to Poland or something...?

Yes, I paid only $200 for a 37" TV a year and a half ago, but I'd expect it to last longer than that. Woke up this morning and there's no picture, just sound. Apparently this happens a lot with this brand.

took it to best buy, dude at the counter said "yeah... that brand is a best buy brand and it sucks. life span is only a year or two." Bought a samsung, similar size, about $150 more... hopefully this one lasts.
