Things that irk you......

When I'm asked if I'd like a drink, I say:
Yes, thank you. I enjoy drinking alcohol very much. When I can, I prefer to consume more than is considered polite, and I wish I could so much more often.

 

I always thought @SpeedTchr was a man.

 

Vombatus-
Jehovah's Witnesses are well known for a contempt for Catholics, even more than the Baptists have.
Baptists and traditional Protestants hate the idea of papism - Witnesses think the idea of the trinity is loathsome.
I have a new solution for the next time one of these people interrupt my private/family time with a proselytizing visit: asking them their address and whether I can come over later to talk about it.

 

I can’t remember what I got irked about today. Damnit. Irking.

 

People who have no sense of spacial awareness in a crowded mall

 

Prince Harry married a 6, and now I’m subjected to her everywhere. Kate Middleton and Princess D were like firm 8’s, no? Is it only bc of the proximity to the throne? I don’t think so bc some of Harry’s past GFs were smokeshows.

Megan Markle is growing on me like moss. Sounds horrible, ‘tis true.

 

Sorry, 8s? We don't use the metric system here

 

More like 8s and 3p

 

Everything about Microsoft...but at the top of the list is Excel asking me every single time "Do you want to keep using the format?" when I save a sheet as a .csv file.

Yes, Office, I do...and you should know this, because I've saved more than 5,000 .csv files over the past two years and never have I answered no!

 

I fixed the Jehovah's Witnesses problem in one shot: I opened the door in nothing but a pair of purple bikini briefs. They never bothered me again.

For the record, I was sleeping on my sister's couch at the time, and was still quite asleep when I opened the door. But it worked.

I don't remember if I had morning wood.

 

Perhaps this irks me more than it should. Actually, both of these.

We have a "reporter" (who mostly sits and writes personal columns and grumbles when asked to report on something) who sits there fondling his beard every time he pauses. EVERY. DAMNED. TIME. He doesn't just stroke it, but treats it like a 12-year-old would treat a beaver.

And the same guy, if he sneezes and someone says, "Bless you," he ignores it. Not even a courtesy "thank you." It doesn't bother me that he doesn't offer a "Bless you" when someone else sneezes, but it just seems so arrogant to sit there and ignore a simple gesture. It's like opening a door for a woman and she ignores the gesture.

What the hell has happened to manners?
