Things that Piss Me Off

I will keep this short and sweet for the ignorant impared 


1.  Time Warner Cable - They have worst service BAR NONE of any company in the metro.  


2.  Chic Fil A  Haters - Get over yourselves dumbasses.  90% of you never ate there before you found out that the president of the company didn't believe in gay marriage and 100% of you are bitching just to get attention.  Local media personalities need to stop headline chasing and stop talking about and writing stories about NON STORIES.   You unoriginal Fucks.  


3.  It's Hot - Yeah NO SHIT.  Thanks for telling me and asking me if it is still hot outside.  Have you noticed that the more you bitch about the heat the cooler the temperature gets?  OH right.  That doesn't freaking happen.

THINGS THAT ANNOY ME - CHRISTMAS EDITION


This is the revised version of last years list.

1. Seeing 8 checkout lanes void from a cashier while you wait in a line 10 deep. What makes this even better is when you see 5 or 6 employees of the store standing around customer service chatting. You have two things to do. Scan items, collect money. that is all there is to it and you CAN'T EVEN DO THAT!

2. The jackass that follows you to your car in order to take your spot when you leave. This happened to me last week and I simply started my car, turned it back off and walked back into the store. The look on the guys face was priceless.

3. Special Buys. What a scam this is. In the fine print of the ad you will see the words limited quantity or only 7 per store. They do this to lure you into their store and switch you onto a more expensive product.

4. Blue Christmas lights. Why even bother? These are the ugliest lights on the planet (icicles from the gutters are a close 2nd). I have never met anyone that likes seeing those hideous things.

5. Drooping Christmas lights. If you are going to go to the effort of hanging them up make them straight. Nothing says WT more than drooping lights.

6. $10 gift cards. Really, what the hell are you suppose to purchase for $10, batteries. There is nothing wrong with a gift that costs $10 it shows that you put some thought and effort into it, This says that I didn't want to spend anytime shopping for you at all.

7. Holiday office parties - Nothing says Christmas like getting together with people that you see 50 hours a week, every week for a Dinner. Really, do we need to see these people after hours as well just because it is Christmas? Nobody I have asked this year likes these things yet they occur every damn year.

8. Traffic - This really needs no explanation.

9. People wishing me a happy holiday. Just say MERRY CHRISTMAS! Why the hell do we have to use code to speak of a holiday? Do I really need to have a Navajo Indian with me in order to speak at Christmas Time.

10. The Mayors Christmas Tree - This has become a joke. This guy is terrible at amaking choices. Two examples, his wife and the Christmas Tree.

11. Stores that advertise the Mail in Rebate price as opposed to the actual price. Anyone that has ever gone through the mail in rebate process understands that it is a hoax. Why do you have to wait 6 months to get $40? Microcenter is notorious for this.

12. Live Nativity Scenes. Does acting out a scene of the bible make you more religious than the next guy? If I wanted to see homeless people I would cross the state line.

13. Lazy Bell Ringers - I know that your job sucks but you could at least put some effort into it. You are competing for my change with the next charity, act like you want my quarter.

14. Crappy Holiday shows - Network execs think that we will watch anything that has Christmas in it. They will take C level sitcom stars from the 80's and put them on a set with snow, presents, a Christmas tree and some struggle and expect us to watch it. Christmas shows that were on TV USE TO BE GOOD. WTF HAPPENED.

15. Atheist - Don't ruin our holiday just because you are going to hell. Also, don't protest our holiday and except a gift from us you damn heathens.

16. Pop Star Christmas music

17. Christmas Clothing - This is some of the ugliest crap I have ever seen.

18. People that attend the Plaza Lighting ceremony - I guess I am missing it here, do the lights look different on Thanksgiving than they do on December 14th?

19. People that say that Christmas lights are bad for the environment.

20. Drawing names for gifts - This is a scam to ensure that unpopular and mean people get gifts at the office etc....

21. Stories on the homeless - Christmas seems to remind the media that they need to run specials on the homeless. It seems that the only day of the year they really need us is December 25th.

22. The exploitation of Snowmen and Reindeer on TV. Do we really need 5 frosty sequels and 3 Rudolph sequels?

More to come I am sure.................

THINGS THAT ANNOY ME THE COMPLETE LIST

I was about to put together "Things that annoy me Part 5" and it became apparent that I might add something twice. So I put together my last three post in order to prevent that. Also with all of the new readers that have made this blog part of their daily routine I realized that many of you might of missed the first 4.


Getting an automated phone directory that has you push 2 for English.

Asking to see ID when using a Debit Card. I thought the whole idea of the debit card was to enter a PIN # thus eliminating the need of showing a freaking ID.

Office “get togethers” that take place after work or on the weekends. I already see these people more than my family so why in the hell would I want to see them anymore than I have to?

People that don’t vote or keep up on issues that want to discuss a “Headline” that they read in a newspaper and feel that they are subject matter experts. “Well I just read that…..” . So based off of the one article or one broadcast you feel that you now have this topic covered?

The term “The Lake”. Which freaking lake? This is used by every jackass under the age of 40 that goes to the Lake of the Ozarks.

Recreational sports guy. This ass clown gives you his box score from last nights double header at Millers Woods, or tells you about the “great round” of golf he shot this weekend, every weekend. Funny thing about Golf guy is that every time you play a round of golf with him it is his “worst round ever” and that he needs new clubs.

Word of the day. If you need a word emailed to you in order to sound intelligent, chances are it is too late.

Lane closed ahead signs, when the lane isn’t closed.

Getting two packets of taco sauce at Taco Bell for 4 people when going through the drive through.

People on Welfare for over a year. Unemployment is at an all time low in America and everyone is hiring. Living off of my tax dollars should be considered stealing and these people should be arrested and sentenced to work farms. Better yet they should be on call for tax payers. The more in taxes you pay the more hours of work you can get out of them. Why should I put in a 50 hour work week and come home to cut the grass. Call 1-800- WEL-FARE and get your lawn mowed.

Illegal Immigration Activists: Go fix the crap in your own country before you come here illegally and demand that we change our laws to suit you and your crimes.

Non HD programming on TV. I pay for 500 channels and only watch 30 because they are in HD. If I want to pay for HD programming only I should be allowed to.

The Chiefs: Carl Peterson had 6 good years and 13 bad ones yet he still has a job. What other profession other than meteorologist can you get away with that.

Movie Quote guy: This idiot is incapable of carrying on a conversation on his own and has to resort to quoting movies in order to be humorous. He also assumes that everyone has memorized every movie made since 1968.

The “Kiss Hello”. We live in the Midwest not Europe.

School Fund Raisers: Our oldest daughter attends a private school in which we pay a very large sum to on a monthly basis yet they milk us for money at every turn. It is a lot like buying a car and then having to pay extra for the steering wheel and tires.

Gas price complainers: "Did you see that gas went up 3 cents over night, good thing I bought last night in that town 50 miles from my home".

Fat People that ride the Rascals at the store: YOU ARE NOT CRIPPLED!!!!!!, You are however Fat and lazy and no I will not get the box of snack cakes off the top shelf for you.

Health Food Activist: I like dolphin in my tuna, red dye #5, sugar subs that actually taste like sugar and salt on my foods.

Double Dippers. These people should have their hands cut off.

The part time patriot.

Bicyclist that feel that riding on the road means they get a whole lane to themselves. This isn’t the Tour De JOCO. If you must ride in the street stay close to the gutter.

The fast food Drive Through. You have 2 simple tasks in your job. Take money, put CORRECT ORDER IN THE BAG, THAT’S IT. Yet this simpleton isn’t even capable of handling this.

55mph on 435 or I 35. Why this person even attempts to navigate the highway is beyond me. They look out onto the highway like scared deer with a death grip on the steering wheel as cars fly right by them at a whopping 65mph. These people cause more accidents than speeders.

People from St. Louis that think their city is on the East Coast. Last time I checked our sewage runs down stream.

Celebs that help Africa first and the citizens of this country 2nd. Hey Oprah, I am sure that the Chicago public schools wouldn’t mind if you helped them out. I am sure your limo drives by thousands of homeless people on the way to the studio that could use some of your Africa money.

People that hate JOCO but work here and spend the majority of their time in the community. Why work in a community that you hate? That’s right, the community you live in has no jobs.

The makers of deodorant that do not automatically put in antiperspirant. Who the hell thought this was a good idea? Is there really a segment of our society that doesn’t mind having sweat stains on there shirts as long as they smell like an Irish Spring?

People that will spend 5 minutes digging through there pockets in order to produce “EXACT CHANGE” at the cash register. This moron thinks that it is some sort of sport and does a fist pump once they find it.

PEOPLE THAT WRITE CHECKS OUT ONCE IT IS THEIR TURN TO PAY. This ass clown has been in line staring at nothing for 8 minutes yet the thought never crosses their mind to break out the check book and get everything filled out except the total. GOOD LORD!

People that press 2 in the elevator. Seriously you can’t walk up that one flight of steps?

Discount scan cards: Why do I need to carry a little card that I paid nothing for, that anyone can get that is scanned before I can get a discount? Am I part of some special club? Are people suppose to see the Price Chopper card in my wallet and be impressed?

The fact that on Saint Patrick's Day everyone suddenly is part Irish.

Crappy automatic car washes. My car should not look worst when I fork over $12 to get it clean
.
Sick People out in public. Thanks for getting me sick jackass.

The cable company replacing technology that works with crap that doesn't. The new box's that Time Warner is using are pieces of crap.

Moving - Even when you hire movers it is a pain in the ass. If I ever move again I will be hiring packers as well.

People that complain about their comments not being published.

Cold weather - I am sick of this crap. Seriously, snow on freaking Easter?

Ignorant Sports "Fans".

Clutter

No more full service gas stations. Why the hell don't we have these things anymore? I would pay a little extra if it meant that I didn't have to get out of the car in the freaking cold. What joy do people get out of pumping their own gas?

Slow grocery sackers.

15 minute wait at restaurants. Why is it that it is always 15 minutes?

Reality TV Shows.

People that make it their goal to remain in you blind spot while driving.

16 year old driving a Lexus.

People that leave VM's saying that they called on my cell phone. Most cell phones tell you if you missed a call yet these idiots want you to dial your vm and go through all the menu options just to hear them say "gimme a call".

Websites that automatically play music, commercials etc.. when you visit them.

Left hand turns.

People that hang out at coffee houses.

Those that are quick to point out every problem in the world yet never have solutions. I avoid this on my blog, most everything I cover I have at one point or another given solutions to what I consider to be problems. Having read through some local "opinion" blogs in the past few months I rarely see any solutions offered by critics.

People that guilt you for not recycling.

Subscription cards in magazines. How many of these things do we need? Do the publishers think we are going to hand them out to our friends?

Magic acts

Bands that still don't have their music on ITunes.

Auto Dealerships that put their emblem on the back of your car. They can charge a $200 documentation fee but we get nothing for free advertising?

Catholic Charities - These guys are nothing more than shake down artists.

Stores that have no guns allowed signs posted on their windows. These stores can usually be seen on the news after a mass shooting has taken place inside there store by someone who must of missed that sign.

Unsolicited Advice. If I thought you would give good advice I would probably ask.

People that bring their own bags to the grocery store.

Claymation - Thanks for sharing your play-doh puppet show.

Movies with subtitles & Foreign Films.

Tampon & Viagra commercials on TV.

Elvis fans. The guy stole 90% of his music.

Ring Tones

Dane Cook - The most unfunny white guy on the planet.

Adults that "Party!" like they are still in college or high school and then have to tell you about it.

Applebee's - How this crap hole is still open is beyond me.

People that don't get rid of their nose hairs.

Rich celebrities flying in private jets, telling me what kind of light bulb to use and to not flush my toilet.

People that steal from my blog. If you lack originality at least give me credit. It amazes me how often this has been happening lately.

9. People wishing me a happy holiday. Just say MERRY CHRISTMAS! Why the hell do we have to use code to speak of a holiday? Do I really need to have a Navajo Indian with me in order to speak at Christmas Time.
10. The writers strike has ruined what has always been a great tradition, Christmas episodes of TV shows. "The Office" Christmas episodes were becoming instant classics but in its place we now get to watch some crappy game show. UNIONS SUCK!
11. Stores that advertise the Mail in Rebate price as opposed to the actual price. Anyone that has ever gone through the mail in rebate process understands that it is a hoax. Why do you have to wait 6 months to get $40? Microcenter is notorious for this.

Things that annoy me Part II



  1. Bicyclist that feel that riding on the road means they get a whole lane to themselves. This isn’t the Tour De JOCO. If you must ride in the street stay close to the gutter.
  2. The fast food Drive Through. You have 2 simple tasks in your job. Take money, put CORRECT ORDER IN THE BAG, THAT’S IT. Yet this simpleton isn’t even capable of handling this.

Katrina Cotteges


I want to post a before picture because in 5 years these houses will look nothing like this. These are the homes that the people that lived in the projects will be getting from the government. A whole town in Kansas was rebuilt by its citizens but the people of New Orleans that need these houses continue to watch Montel in there FEMA trailers until these houses are delivered.

Hey Jackass Lottery Player


Take your power ball tickets to a place that allows you to check your own tickets. What makes you think that it is a good idea to take your 100 tickets into a Shell Station and have them checked by the ONE (non English speaking) person working a cash register in the joint during the busiest time of day? You don't have to be a genius to figure out that it isn't , just look at the freaking line of pissed off people behind you.

The fact that you break out algebra equations to convert power ball winnings into scratcher tickets with someone that has pictures of money on their register due to their inability to make proper change, it is never a smooth process, pisses me off.

The fact that in your mind everyone knows exactly what the Kansas Triple play daily deuce $3 scratcher ticket looks like, but believe it or not some people actually don't, pisses me off.

The fact that you have the scratcher ticket layout behind the counter committed to memory and the schlep that spends 8 hours a day working there doesn't, pisses me off.

The fact that you spend more time transferring power ball winnings into scratcher tickets than I do transferring money from checking to savings, pisses me off.

The fact that you THEN start manually picking more power ball tickets at the register with out MOVING so that the 16 or so people in line can finally pay, pisses me off.

The fact that I had to tell you to pack up your crap and finish doing that outside so that we could get through the line and pay, well that made me feel good.

All I ask is that you don't forget about me if you do win.

CTN = Crappy Television Network

Why is it that a football team worth over a billion dollars is using the same camera equipment that covered the moon landing? This could be the worst picture quality I have ever seen. Is KCTV saving all of the HD cameras for Katie Horner? Between the play on the field and the grainy blurs on my tv it is almost unwatchable.

JACKASS OF THE DAY - KEVIN KIETZMAN

There is no surprise here that Kevin Kietzman makes an ass of himself while discussing the signing of Larry Johnson of the Chiefs. The "family man" decided to call out LJ's character in regards to him being a team leader. Kietzman said that there is no way that he is a leader and that he has said and done too many controversial things for people to follow him. I find this funny coming from a man that owns (leader) part of 810whb. 

A man that while bashing the family values and "leadership" qualities of others were in the meantime cheating on his wife and kids with a twenty-something employee of the station. These actions not only caused him to get a divorce but created turmoil in the company that he owned. Kevin Kietzman is the biggest hypocrite in sports media today and his judging others on character is like Michael Vick telling someone how to care for dogs.
