The fat gay guys actually liked everything. The only ones that genuinely pissed me off were the fat chick (with the plaid-shirted guy), and the Asian/Hispanic chick (I just wanted to back-hand her...I hope she gets stranded in Cincy and fucking starves).

Who hates peanut butter? Esp. when it's surrounded by chocolate? She was absolutely obnoxious.

Pet peeve? Inconsistency of TSA security. I have TSA pre-check because I travel a fair amount. One airport I'll be able to go through without incident without removing my belt and boots. The next airport I will set off the detector and have to remove my belt and/or boots. Last week at the John Wayne airport in Orange Co. the guy from TSA tried to tell me the inconsistencies were on purpose so terrorists wouldn't know what to expect. My response was, "And you actually said that with a straight face."

A literal pet peeve....got a new dog from a rescue shelter, she's 6 years old and fully grown. She's mostly german shepherd with some collie I think mixed in, but none the less is close to 50 pounds. I am very anal about keeping furniture, floors, bedding, etc. clean. I love dogs - I hate shedding. Did not know that shepherd's probably shed the most. Clean the dark brown couch....2 minutes later....covered in fur. I went to brush my teeth....I take the brush out, wtf, a dog hair is on it! Oh well, that sucker has already won me over....looks like I'll just have to wait her out...

Not a pet peeve, but a major yet not so major thing that makes me really want to at least yell at someone.

Had the water pump on my car replaced yesterday, and when I drive to work this morning I notice my "Low Coolant" light pops on and off seemingly randomly and the gauge on the panel seems to be regularly going back and forth. I'll see what it does on the way home. Yep, the light popped back on for a few seconds when I started the car and then randomly later closer to home (just a like 10mi drive, not far at all). So I pull in the garage, prop the hood and check the coolant recovery tank. Wouldn't you know it, the tank cap is missing the hose that goes down into the tank with the "Cold Fill" mark! I look in the tank to make sure it didn't fall off the cap for some odd reason, and nope, not in there. The geniuses at the repair shop must have taken it off for some reason (to clean it, maybe? It was a little dirty above the typical fluid level) and forgot to put it back on. So of course the light is going to pop on if its losing coolant to the tank and not able to get it back depending on the pressure. Of course they're closed today, I work until 6 tomorrow, which means the earliest I can go back up and get it put back on is Tuesday morning. And just as a little cherry on top of the whole thing, the drive to both the garage I had it done at and the dealer which probably has the replacement part (if the shop doesn't still have it laying around somewhere) are both about a half hour away with a fair bit of city driving (and tolls, if I want to avoid the traffic and get there a little faster).

Ugh.

Finding a competent and trustworthy mechanic seems to be the hardest thing to do. I hate car repairs.

Especially when you live in a tourist hot spot, because everyone wants to take advantage of tourists with car troubles, and driving 30-45+ minutes away from home/work for a good repair isn't a great situation for more serious problems. I mean, it really isn't a "my car is going to blow up immediately" issue (as long as someone has the damn part in stock...), but it just adds to the stress and frustration of car repairs, which already sucks enough.

The guy that keeps printing emails to the printer across from my office, then walks to the printer to pick up his printed emails, then brings them to my desk ...

Because hitting the forward button is too fucking difficult.

Every-single-one of these people...except the two young guys that loved them Buckeyes.

I have only heard of two of these things, and I grew up in Ohio (only been in CT since 2006). Buckeyes (of course) and 3-Way. I agree with the folks about the 3-way. Had friends that went to UC. Tried it on a visit. Never understood what the big deal was about. Kind of figured it was a joke on tourists. Sort of like haggis in Scotland. Then I went to Scotland, tried haggis. It was delicious. Would be better to put haggis on that stale speggetti than whatever stuff they actually put on it.

to the kid I saw today with the 40" light bar mounted to the luggage rack on top of your early 2000's Honda Accord, you are as bad as the dumbass with the 24's with low profiles on a 4x4. Fucking idiot, what are you going trail riding?
