    People like you who come through my line and act like "deal hounds". Sorry, I don't want to get b****ed at by some manager for 10 minutes because I gave you something for .01, when I'm not sure about it. I know that extra 30 seconds you have to wait is inconvenient, but those 50 coupons you just handed me are just as annoying. ;)

    My pet peeve is people who don't reply to text messages. Or those who purposely ignore a call just so they can text you.

    Let me get this straight. You're actually responsible with knowing the prices of things in the store? When it's all in a computer database? Come on.

    1. When you open your bag of chips and it's already half empty! How stupid do these companies think we are? These marketing tactics are becoming really absurd and obvious. Yeah, that's right, screw you Lays and you're delicious chips.

    2. People who can't shoot worth crap (in basketball), yet they will continue to keep shooting. I'm talking about the people that you know DON'T play basketball and have the most atrocious shooting form that is cancer to the eye. I usually try to be encouraging and say "it's okay, keep shooting!" But damn, with that kind of release, there is 0% chance it's going in. Do these people not know that they suck? If they last 8 shots haven't gone in, this one won't either. STOP SHOOTING! You look like a clown.

    Let me get this straight. You're trying to call someone slightly less r****ded than you a r****d?

    I get that you're happy you mastered addition and subtraction. Fractions are next!

    No, but an obvious discrepency like that can get us in trouble. It's not really that big of a deal to me. Hell, I don't care. I could care less how the store does to be honest. I really just don't want some higher up breathing down my neck. They monitor your transactions and stuff, and it's just a hassle I would rather not go through.

    People that confirm a friendship on a social network like facebook... but then NEVER, and I mean NEVER, respond to a single thing you post or comment to them on.


    Why even add me then? Why even be on a "social network" if you're going to be antisocial? :mad:

    And what's worse is that those scenarios happen with people I have actually met and have real relationships with more than do with "cyber-acquaintances" I've never personally met.

    What gives?

    This is the one thing that I hate at Fogo de Chao or any upscale restuarant. The over service you. I take 2 sips out of my Ice Tea and they refill it and boom! There goes that utopia that you talk about.

    Personally, I just confirm everyone who asks. I don't feel the need to evaluate whether or not I like someone enough for them to be "worthy" of my Facebook friends list. I also only use it sparingly, for things like throwing an event, so I miss most day to day type stuff. So the people that are bothering you could be like that. Or maybe they are just jerks.

    Call me old fashioned, but something really irks me about NBA teams wearing their alternate road jerseys at home, forcing the road team to wear home colors.
