sroberson Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Piece O' Crap software like Open Office. I don't really mind if it has bugs, its free. But when I want to indent just one line for a paragraph but it insists on tabbing over the entire paragraph... Hope you are proud of yourself open source...I am having to pull out my copy of Office 2003 to get my work done... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hidi Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 You know, there are still many businesses that use that. Sometimes when you're drawing, you screw up and erase. Pretty simple. but when you're trying to redraw, you keep drawing over what you've erased and don't like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vy'drach Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 This might not count,I have this same damned problem and it bugged me to all hell and back in school, to the point I honestly considered leaving the problem wrong due to how perfectly the incorrect answer was written. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drasiana Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Olfactory hallucinations ie smelling nonexistent smells. I get these. I haven't had them recently but that decided to change tonight and I've wanted to rip my nose off the entire time. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drasiana Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Trust me you don't want olfactory hallucinations...in almost all cases it's always a really nasty smell. I get cigarette smoke and sewage, for instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't had them recently but that decided to change tonight and I've wanted to rip my nose off the entire time. Ugh. Holy shit I didn't realise other people get this. I always smell burning or a metallic smell, like iron. Sometimes I think I smell charcoal, like a BBQ, too. No one else can smell it. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Elite Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 One of the things i can't stand is telephone service lines. You'll just be sitting there "You are now....16th in the queue" What's worse about it, apart from the ridiculous hold music is the announcements they make during it saying how good the customer service is, it annoys me tears. It's like a torturer slowly stabbing you to death and then saying "look how good my knives are" Telephone Customer service, there's no such thing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I think I smell charcoal, like a BBQ, too. No one else can smell it. Yeah that's a classic one to smell. I don't think they're entirely understood and no one really knows how to make them go away (or even, really, what causes them) so it's a little annoying. Especially considering for me it often goes on for a few days, though it usually precedes a sinus infection which I really hope I'm not getting. Anyways, more pet peeves! People you spell "you" as "yu" What the fuck What are you doing S t o p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xortberg Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 People you spell "you" as "yu" People do that? I've seen it done as a bad pun on a Yu Narukami fanpage on Facebook because the admin hates Yu puns, but there are actually people who spell it that way?

Fana McCloud Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 My misadventures in IHSS employment have summoned forth a few more pet peeves: People without message machines or whose machines/voice mail are always FULL. Usually this is accompanied by a call later inquiring as to why I didn't call or show up. I won't waste gas driving clear across town only to discover someone isn't at their house. And if I can't show up to a scheduled appointment that day I can't very well tell them when they don't answer the phone and their machine is full. People who constantly forget when I'm in class and call asking for me to do something for them THAT DAY... during class when I'm indisposed anyway... repeatedly over the span of weeks or even months. Pharmacies. Yes, that word alone encompasses so much of my grief. XD So many snags, like them not billing things properly, saying that things aren't covered by the person's insurance when I KNOW for a fact they are, not calling to let us know something has been filled after telling them like 10 times to do so, drug shortages because the DEA are pricks (we were having issues getting Adderall for awhile because of this). Inversely, doctors love to write prescriptions that are either illegible or have a dosage that doesn't exist for that drug. Stuff needs to either be rewritten or confirmed with the doctor's office in these cases. Delays make for cranky patients, especially when it's for PAIN MEDS. Having to take the train to LA with someone who has problems walking without extreme pain/discomfort because (our best guess) the insurance doesn't pay our HMO what they'd like, so they insist on us going down to the Sunset Kaiser instead of contracting it to someplace closer. My only valid response to this is: Fuck you, fuck you for placing money before my mother's well being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like a torturer slowly stabbing you to death and then saying "look how good my knives are" Telephone Customer service, there's no such thing! I deal with that on a pretty much daily basis at work. Calling Tracfone is a huge headache. "Please hold while your call is transferred to a represenative." "All of our customer service representaives are busy assisting other customers, please stay on the line for the next available represenantive. For faster service, you can activate and add air time on our website, at www.straighttalk.com." EVERY time I call Straight Talk ( a sub-company of Tracfone, Walmart exclusive ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it done as a bad pun on a Yu Narukami fanpage on Facebook because the admin hates Yu puns, but there are actually people who spell it that way? Yeah, there are people who unironically use "yu" in place of "you". They're prolific on Tumblr and are usually present in particularly stupid trending topics on Twitter. The occasional Facebook screencap (not of this Narukami fellow, mind you) seems to show them there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gestalt Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 Now, its no secret i'mma fan of color. Can't even decide which is my favorite. Funky fonts can be fresh too... But why on earth would you post 5 to 10 sentences like this in every single forum post you ever make. I mean seriously, does it get anymore annoying?!

Xortberg Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 We should make posting in Comic Sans a bannable offense. No warnings issued. If someone does it, permaban that mofo. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkyway64 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 We should do that to bronies, too. And furries. And fans of Starfox Adventures. You know what, let's just ban everyone but me. That's a cool idea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
