Alex in NYC - i can't tell you how much i hate DiTech comercials. Jesus they suck. I watch about 1 hour of tv a day and yet i only seem to see those commercials over and over and over.

Aside from that i hate my iMac

I hate the advent of the cellphone.

Partisan bickering aired on twenty-four hour "news" networks.

I hate not having access to high quality health care, probably because i stabbed myself with a pair of scissors yesterday (by accident) while embarking on a home improvement project. That said - i hate stitches in my hand, and tetanus shots that make me feel like I got walloped by a baseball bat. But what I REALLY hate is that i was not given an RX for good pain pills! it is just completely unfair. Give me Vicodin - now!

Right at this moment, I hate sh|man0's stupid P.O.S. bicycling gear, their infuriating habit of dropping support for their older gear, whilst bringing out new gear that is incompatible in some way, but most of all their fucking idiotic "megarange" gear with the rear changer spring that is sprung back to front IN THE NAME OF FUKC WHY?) that fucks up so easily, and cannot be fixed, even if you waste 2 hrs of you life trying, even if you know it won't work.

Also audi "tt"s.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Thursday, 22 July 2004 11:25 (twenty years ago) link

I must have nodded off when Kiss had a 'respectable legacy'.

Re conspiracy theories: Put me in the 'anti' camp, especially CT's which posit the narrator as the object of the conspiracy.

I am also nearly bored enough by 'Look at me I'm a hero' anti-PC behavior to actively hate it.

― Fred Nerk (Fred Nerk), Thursday, 22 July 2004 11:29 (twenty years ago) link

I hate people who run their businesses using a mobile phone and no other form of contact and then go on holidays and don't bother leaving a vacation message on their phone. Grrr.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Thursday, 22 July 2004 11:47 (twenty years ago) link

(classic other side of the coin to this = when someone who is on a busy mail list you're on goes on holiday, leaving their mail app to automatically reply to all emails received with s.th. like "hi! I'm on holiday right now, I'll read your email on the first of august" so that every other email received from that list is another copy of that!)

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Thursday, 22 July 2004 12:14 (twenty years ago) link

Pashima: the worst is when those emails go to the "Reply-To:" address on the list so EVERYONE gets them.

The mail autoreply system I wrote replys only once every two weeks to each person and will only reply to emails addressed to your email address(es).

Yeah, that's what I meant! He wound up getting booted off the list 'till the end of his holiday.

i fucking hate the way yogurt spurts at me every time i peel the lid off.

currently it's a tossup between people who don't write any documentation and then wonder why you don't know how to use things and documentation that's just plain wrong (mysql reference manual for the exact version i'm using (3.23.58) and supplied along with the executables is a case in point. GRANT REPLICATION SLAVE my arse!)

― koogs (koogs), Thursday, 22 July 2004 12:33 (twenty years ago) link

When people toss off not-exactly-mainstream theories about things that happen to be well researched and backed-by-facts by simply invoking the phrase "conspiracy theory".

Turn to page 95 please. Facts alone do not a logical, coherent argument make. 'Well-researched' for me = try find something that contradicts your theory before looking for something that supports it.

― fcussen (Burger), Thursday, 22 July 2004 12:41 (twenty years ago) link

pg 95 of this:

shit, supposed to be a picture of Popper's "Open Society, vol. 2" contains a pretty succinct summation of why conspriacy theories are to be dismissed

― fcussen (Burger), Thursday, 22 July 2004 12:45 (twenty years ago) link

I must have nodded off when Kiss had a 'respectable legacy'.

Listen, monkeydickwads, as silly as they may irrefutably be, once upon a time, Kiss had cred. If only they'd knocked it on the head before the non-makeup years. I was all for the reunion tour and even the farewell tour, but Gene's avarice swelled up like a priapic dirigible and the next thing ya know, you have them releasing albums with symphony orchestras and doing Pepsi commercials. WHY CAN'T THEY BOW OUT GRACEFULLY?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Thursday, 22 July 2004 13:07 (twenty years ago) link

people who xpost when the person before them has said precisely the same thing, and they know the person has said it yet they still have to say it again.
