When someone is attempting to pick the brains of others/"crowdsource" and concludes a request with "Go!" like we're all supposed to trip over our own feet rushing to satisfy the request. This isn't a race, you don't need to tell me to "go". It actually makes me want to help the person less. So mean of me, but true.

I agree. Not that you're mean, but that it is annoying.

you cut the muffin in half and put it in the toaster. Then smear butter on the halves.
Of course you can't do this with glorified cupcakes and the only place that does decent muffins in Marks & Sparks and they're zionist bastards anyway.
Must look into using bread machine for preparation of muffin and pizza doughs, its supposed to be able to do both easily but so far I've only used it for breads.

Muffins are super easy to make in a bowl without a bread machine -- you don't have to knead them or anything. It's just a batter, slightly more floury/less wet than a cake batter. http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/blueberry-muffins-recipe

we get these fancy reams of paper at work that are shrinkwrapped. the first page of the ream has a non-removable sticker on it with the paper type etc. so the first page is useless for printing. it's such a ridiculous waste i hate it.
also we get large rolls of paper to use on our plotter printer. the rolls are sealed with adhesive tape...that tears the paper underneath when you remove it. surely, SURELY you would have half a brain to figure out that maybe you should seal it with removable tape so that the paper is not marked by your stupid non-removable tape.

As bad or worse, people who answer, "That's not possible." E.g.
Asker: How do I disable the Insert key on my keyboard? Answerer: I don't think you can do that. (others offer instructions for remapping keyboards)Answerer: I never heard of doing that. I don't see how that could actually work. Asker: Thanks, that worked!Answerer: That wasn't a good idea. You probably just ruined your computer. it's impossible THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOUa;dklfja;sd

"Two tortilla burrito" should be a phrase for something needlessly complicated. "How's the security line at the airport?" "Ugh, they make you go through this stupid maze even though no one's in line. It's such a two-tortilla burrito."

Books that are told in first-person viewpoint and recount long dreams full of dialogue quoted verbatim. Dreams do not work like that. And they're boring to hear/read about.

I have a facebook friend who posts his dreams all the time -- he's a good writer and they're very imaginative and poetic dreams and they're STILL boring as fuck to read about. I've only known one person ever whose dreams were interesting to hear.

carl agatha is the only person I've know who can recount dreams in an interesting way. I can't figure out her trick. Probably she's a witch.

And it's what I think when people get het up about analyzing jokes. For me, picking apart a joke doesn't "kill it," it gives it a second life.

How Windows 7 likes to display every new folder window with the following 'details':
#TitleContributing ArtistsAlbum
So instead of just me clicking a button or two so I can see file size and date, I have to unclick all these mp3-centric options and then click all the stuff 'on'. Thanks, MS.
Also, I have received multiple used printers that 100% work in other versions of Windows but REFUSE to do so in Windows 7. Ease of use w peripherals should be the fucking FOUNDATION of your OS. Otherwise this is just DOS in drag.
