Innocuous things that make you irrationally angry (a list thread)

when you're eating a chocolate chip cookie, one of the crispy ones, and one of the chocolate chips falls out of its precarious little hole and onto the floor.

They are too small to spank, so I find myself losing my temper and saying "I WISH YOU HAD BEEN BORN BUTTERSCOTCH!!". I know, I'm going to hell...

jaymc, I wasn't really expecting anyone to know who the retired Representative from Arkansas' First District was.

you dont stare at an ass you oogle

oogle plus

Oogle must be the word for when you glance down at someone's id badge while in line at Subway and go back to the office to find their Facebook.

When I get out of the train at the wrong end of the platform, and have to walk all the way back down to get to the exit.

Piccadilly Line trains that terminate at Northfields, on a Sunday afternoon, when it's freezing.

I hate that first one, especially when I try to figure out the right car to board so I will alight at my exit and guess wrong. Womp womp.

I get IA when spotify does not have all songs ever recorded

Having a tasty morsel or bite of food fall to the floor instead of my mouth, ugh!!!! Especially when I am starving or looking forward to a tasty morsel or bite of food.

I always feel like I would have felt more fulfilled if the one, last bite of chicken that fell to the ground had been consumed.

what, you guys won't eat something that's fallen on the floor? Five second rule

I opened my curtains this morning with a vigorous and exuberant sweep, as of one glad to meet the day and all the potential it holds, and the entire curtain came off the rail sending little plastic curtain hooks flying everywhere.

Sour displeasure rather than IA I guess although I did immediately and loudly go FUCK!

You mean as in "shout the word loudly" right?

yes, ok.

I wish I had voted. I never vote in any of these things and then always regret it.

I made you IA? Sorry? :/

Don't worry about it, it was innocuous/irrational.

I'm not good at choosing favorites when it comes to these sort of lists. Either I stress about ranking things too much or forget about it and then throw together some BS list last minute that I'm not really happy with. I know people who live for ranking stuff and making these sort of lists but I'm just not one of them but then I read the threads and I wish I had. Yeah, I guess that is sort of annoying.

I look back on every one of my ballots cast in an ilx poll (except my Led Zeppelin ballot) and think "lol wtf was I on?" but am happy to keep voting.

I hope it doesn't make you IA that I laughed pretty hard at this.

I just put it back up! Had I seen your post while I was actually perched on the chair threading the fuckers back on, I would have been pretty f'ing IA, but now I'm back down it's all smiles.

THose shit-eating pass-the-buck things you get at the start of every DVD: "The views expressed in interviews blah blah blah do not represent the views of Paramount the psychopathic money-making entity blah blah we have no responsibilities only rights fuck you."

Oh, I don't mind this at all - it's when it's the sixth person in a row who goes "I didn't realise this was happening" when a poll's nomination and voting threads have been being constantly bumped to the top of the boards for around a month, that's when I get IA.

yeah, that's a whole nother GAAAAAHHHHH

That buxom has lost its early meaning and is now essentially a euphemism for busty

When orthopedists spell it "orthopaedic."

That's just orthodox British spelling, though, no?

Okay, when US orthopedists spell it "orthopaedic."

orthodaox spelling

People who say they're old, or getting old, when really they're not. Similarly, people who talk about how 'things used to be better in the '30s/'60s/'80s/whatever' need to die of consumption.

I am guilty of the first (but I'm creeping up on 40 so maybe it's okay?) but you are 100% OTM on the second.

Will ague do, dl? How about grippe?

catarrh

catarrh or nothing

dropsy 4 life

polo shirts. I haaaaate having to wear them

They set up the demo desk for new office furniture right across from me today. I'm annoyed by the crowd coming by but even more annoyed by the furniture itself.

When I start using round paper and curved pens, maybe those spinning drawers will make a lick of sense.

how in the holy shit does that thing work?

That's something from the Internet. I'm about to post a before/after.

It doesn't work very well, I'll tell you that.

What's on your desk at work?

I hate when you have some hash and it turns into a demon in your stomach which mates with your spleen to make a devil baby from your ass.

Feeling you.

I've missed you, LG.

Like the deserts miss the rain?

pplains: I can empathize, that really sux.

I always hated new office furniture. Once they got us these low lying, dinky computer desks and by the following week the office looked shittier because someone brought in 2x4s to prop the desks up and bring them up to an almost decent height. Took three on both sides. Very precarious. It worked but the aesthetics were garbage. They were all soon gathered up and returned and we found out later they were meant for kids, ugh, typical UT library incident. They were replaced with new desks that only needed one 2x4 on three sides.

people who spout "facts" that are completely devoid of context or relevance to anything.
