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-one years ago)

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-one years ago)

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-one years ago)

(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-one years ago)

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).

― I CAN LEAD YOU THROUGH THE ZONE (ex machina), Thursday, 22 July 2004 12:18 (twenty-one years ago)

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

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-one years ago)

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.

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

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?

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.

I have weird time issues, so most of the things/people that I hate revolve around people who are late, and things and people that make me late. A specific one I thought of yesterday is people who don't understand the stand on the right/walk on the left rule for escalators, and people who don't understand that this rule translates to staircases too, i.e., if you're carrying something big and heavy or wearing high heels or doing something that makes you walk slower than normal, walk up or down the right side of the staircase and let those of us who just want to get home get past you. YOU'RE BLOCKING TRAFFIC WITH YOUR HIGH-HEELED NONSENSE.

I really really fucking hate the way at work, as kids or even adults pass through the shop, they think it's oh so hilarious to do a mock scratch on one of the decks, always with their hand against their ear in a "dj pose".

it's incredibly annoying and not funny even after the millionth time.

Furthermore I really hate when kids/tourists/adults fuck around and want to play records on the decks just for a laugh with no intention of buying anything. I don't want to be mr cranky record shop guy but for fuck's sake just leave the things alone!

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 22 July 2004 13:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Lucky that they aren't seeing it for the millionth time then, Ronan.

Haha ronan, you should get a bell on your door, and see how long it is before people saying "seconds out!" when it rings makes steam come out of your ears.

You would think so, but nope.

― St. Nicholas (Nick A.), Thursday, 22 July 2004 14:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, don't get me started. I really hate it when people look for discounts on stuff that's already pretty cheap in a FUCKING CHARITY SHOP! I mean, okay, I know that me and the volunteers make mistakes sometimes and price things too high, but I'm not talking about that. If someone comes into my shop and tells me that they've seen a book priced at €5 in my shop which is in the Hodges Figgis sale brand new for the same price, that's one thing. But to buy two books that are €6 each and then say 'can you do the two for a tenner?' It just pisses me off. No. I can't. That €2 makes a difference.
