BS: Me an' my monkey. What bugs you?

From: Peace

If you had to choose from three things in life that really bug you, what would those three things be? Not stuff like politics or war or religion; rather, some little things that drive ya crazy.

Mine are as follows:

1) Those damned labels on the inside of the elastic band of underwear--so I end up wearing my underwear inside out so the label doesn't touch my skin

2) Toilet paper that doesn't tear along the serrated (sp?) line that is put there so the toilet paper tears along the serrated line whick it then doesn't

3) Labels with warnings written in tiny print--and when ya get the magnifying glass to read it, it tells you that there MAY be traces of peanuts or other nuts in your--you guessed it--bag of peanuts.

That was the monkey on my back today. Thank you for helping me get it off.

(1) Automatic drip coffeemakers that are impossible to pour water into without making a mess.

(2) Replacement battery-packs for cordless drills that cost 95ยข less than what you originally paid for the entire drill kit.

(3) My digital pocketwatch that alarms at 8:50 every evening despite my having tried every possible combination of button mashing to make it stop. Trust me, in 55 minutes it'll go off. If I ever actually need to awaken or do anything in particular at 8:50 PM, I'm covered.

Three things that bug me are

1} The aluminun foil that won't come off the roll right so you end
   up having to tear it away

2} Stores that don't take off the burgler thingamagiggies and you have
   off the clothes but the alarm doesn't go off and you don't know
   that plastic do-hicky is still on till you get all the way home

3) Daylight Saving Time- I guess it's makes sense but particularly
   in the Fall I feel that I've had an hour taken from me-well not
   just me..I don't personalize it..well okay I do.

I have a built in alarm system in my head. If I tell myself to wake up at a certain time, I do.

So I don;t need of alarm clocks. As a matter of fact, that's another thing that bugs me.

That makes 4 things.

I wake up by the sun. It doesn't matter what time the clock says. But I have the luxury of not having a regular job so I don't have to be someplace at a certain hour. I didn't like it very much when I had to wake up at 5:30 and it was still dark outside. It ain't natural.

1) ignorance..(not stupidity...I can tolerate people who can't help it, but not those who won't TRY to learn stuff.)

2) people (84.613% women) in grocery stores who stand in the middle of the asile, with one hand on their cart, blocking the entire asile while they contemplate whether to get Cream of Asparagus or Chicken Noodle today. I suspect some of those people are just stupid, so I don't yell at them.

3) Military types who refer to hidden weapons as 'cachets' rather than 'caches'...I suspect many of THESE are ignorant.

you did say 3 so I won't mention red-light runners.....or modern packages that require an axe to open.....or cute female news-readers who can manage to sound 'perky' when reporting on horrendous train wrecks...

COntrary-wise, dear friend Bill, I get incensed at stupidity, while I find ignorance (an unawareness of facts) easily remedied by information. Telling people is easy enough. But the willfully stupid are just irritating as all git out. But I have thought it over and see your view also -- willful ignorance and innocent stupidity.

In either condition it is the willful assertion of it that drives me nuts.

heric : "People behind you to the left or right, who interpret your turn indicator as a signal that they must speed up quickly."

Those peolple would list me because, at the point of activating my signal, I have the right of way, and I take it. Of course, part of my boldness comes from driving an old pickup truck. I find those drivers you refer to are usually driving a sporty little import.

A fun tip (for daylight hours). After you change lanes and they are so irate that they weren't able to cut you off and decide to tailgate you in protest, turn on your lights and speed up at the same time.

Oooh, come on guys, you used up almost all of mine! But not quite...

1) Intolerant people; I can't abide by them, I won't give them a second chance :-)

2) Bigotry

3) Holier-than-thou-ness, in any form. I once walked into a lift having recently put out a cigarette, and no doubt my breath smelled; the lady that joined me in the lift immediately began a tirade about secondary smoking and berated me for having entered the lift with her and endangering her life. I told her that, no matter how hard she tried, I would not french-kiss her - what else could I say?

4) The hair I sometimes find in my toothbrush - how did it get there?

5) E-numbers on food packages that tell me sod all about the ingredients

6) Itches in the middle of the back, where I cannot reach (I have three back-scratchers in the house, but when outside I have been known to use door-posts, knives, and in one case a frying-pan)

7) Fresh today: The Curator and GUEST,RUN-with--an-accent; but that's really a combination of 1), 2) and 3) above plus ignorance and malice.

People who walk around shirtless with their underpant showing above their pants. It's called UNDERwear. It goes UNDER your pants. I can't believe this needs to be explained. I am not impressed with your Calvin Klein underpants. Actually, I think it's ridiculous that you paid twice the price for something that is probably no better than the less expensive brands.

Yuppie women who stand in the grocery store aisle, bragging to each other about their childrens' soccer scores and totally ignoring the people who want to pass by. You can say "Excuse me" until you're blue in the face, and the most you'll get is that they'll look at you as if you're covered with rodent shit, but mostly they just ignore you.

People who can't close the milk cartons at the self-serve coffee counters in convenience stores. It takes a fraction of a second out of your lives to flick the carton closed, but you can't do it. Didn't any of you people have mothers? CLOSE THE DAMNED CARTON WHEN YOU'RE DONE!!

Re the turn signal thing above...

The difference between small-town driving and big-city driving in a nutshell:

In a small town, turning on one's turn signal to signal a lane change means "May I come over, please?"

In a big city, turning on one's turn signal to signal a lane change means "I'm coming over!" If you wait for drivers in Atlanta to be courteous, you'll run out of gas before you ever get off the Loop.

gnu, another fun tip...

When someone passes you at night and cuts you off, follow them just a little to the left, off-center. Your headlights in their side mirror can be irritating. I learned this when commuting. Of course you can always act real dumb (easy for me) if the person has road rage and tries to come after you.

I also learned while commuting in the "East End" of a big city vs. the "West End." The BMW's are the rudest drivers. Those junkers with no tail lights are ususally more polite.

One of my monkeys is drawer in our kitchen that we call Jack's drawer, because nobody wants to admit possession. It is filled to the brim with stuff that was once deemed too valuable to toss.

Old screws and other small parts of stuff, the purpose of which has long been forgotten, old combs, kinder egg toys, small prizes from bygone Christmas crackers, tiny flashlights, which someone hoped eventually to figure out a way to replace the battery.

There's everthing from random guitar strings of unknown guage and blue hockey tape?, to small packets of motel soap. Scattered in the bottom, beebees, bobby pins, thumb tacks, push pins and paper clips and pill bottles half filled by some brave soul who abandonded an attempt to organize the mess. As a result Jack's drawer has now spread to the drawer below, now known as, Jack's other drawer.

Ditto to whoever was talking about people blocking up supermarket aisles. Triple so for people who have already been served blocking up the bar when I want a drink!

My boss. What makes her think that Mudcat isn't a valuable use of the companies time;-)

The creepy, crawly yuckky kind.

And the Internet kind too.

And that other kind of bugs that are used to listen in to people's telephone conversations.

digital radio tuners so you have to poke a button a hundred times to get a station

carpet tacked down to almost any floor but especially in hospitals..how are they going to keep it clean?

flourescent lights, especially in schools where they damage the health of children and staff

listening to music on tapes because you have to rewind them to play the song over and over

building of houses that fly away in tornados, burn up etc.

children who are not taught to behave (likewise teens)

1. Finding that no one put a fresh bottle of water in the fridge to get cold after they took the last one out.

2. The garbage guy who rarely comes on time.

3. Students at school who park me in from time to time.

Michelle: Take a tip from the gal in "Fried Green Tomatoes." The students will never park you in again.
