Latest Peeves

The title says it all.

Many times I just sit there in bed, and I'm tired, but my mind is racing to solve a problem or something. It's really annoying that I can't just let it go and fall asleep, sometimes.

Every time my server restarts, something bad happens. Either I forget to start up some service, some file is corrupted, or whatever. Next time I'm about to restart my server, point me here, and remind me how much I hate it.

One thing that really bugs me when walking anywhere, is having to route around slow people. The absolute worst is when there's a group of people who all fan out, making it extremely difficult to get around them. Those people need to leave a path for people to walk through them, or just walk a little bit faster!

I hate packing. You've got to put all your crap in boxes or containers, knowing full well that you'll have to unpack them later. It also reminds you how much dumb crap you've got. Wouldn't it be better to just "reformat" your life, and start over periodically instead of trying to bring all that extra baggage with you? Oh well, that's the way life is, huh? But it still peeves me off.

Commented on Packing

I kind of want to revisit this, and generalize it to just "Moving" in general. Moving sucks!

 
Commented on Bathroom Talkers

Couldn't agree more! That's always so awkward. Why would anyone do that?

 
Commented on Javascript.........

I think it's easy...JUST KIDDING. Agreed, it would be cool to have a generic VM like parrot or something running in the browser so that in script files you could just write <script type="text/python">...</script>. That would be sweet.

 

I dunno man, I think that one person can change the world. Call me irrational or naive, but it's something that I want to think is possible!

 

I'm guilty of all three of them all the time.

 

Hmm, for whatever reason this doesn't really bug me.

 

OUCH, that hurts my eyes and brain and everything else. That's bad. If I ever do that, please ridicule me ceaselessly.

 

Can you give us examples of what you're talking about? Are you talking about where the word ends with an 's', and people append an apostrophe to the end? If so, then I think that's correct if it's a noun (one that's not pluralized). If I'm wrong, let me know and I'll put my foot in my mouth.

 

Haha, this peeve makes me laugh!

 

In a lot of places it's starting to become illegal to even do this, so the law agrees with your sphinx.

 
 
Commented on Tailgaters.

That's so true! I mean, you're not going to get there any faster. Totally agreed.

 

@jtauber That's terrible, considering how much flak they got later on about truthfulness in people's profile pages.

 

Weird! I don't think that happened to me. You know what? I bet it automatically friended the person who sent you the invite...Correct me if I'm wrong.

 
Commented on TheJesus

BTW, you should get a Gravatar.

 
Commented on TheJesus

I'm glad you've decided to post your pet peeves to this new site, Mitch. You know, a big reason for me getting this up and running was the fact that you were asking for it.

 

Agreed--in fact, what is the name of the guy on MySpace who gets added to everyone's friends lists?

 

@thauber of course I did those things, but still the crappy razor didn't help.

 

@thauber No.
@TheJesus Good point, totally agreed.

 

No I think you've got it wrong TheJesus, PS3lover, after posting that macho message, is the one who goes and eats rocky road ice cream and cries in the bathtub.

 

I agree. It's the pinnacle of rudeness to not use your blinker. I'd even call it antisocial.

 

You mean that I can't have an opinion? :(

 

I've gotta say, the worst one is "My computer's going slow. Can you help me reformat it?" It takes a good chunk of a day, because what they really mean is "Can you please tell me about all of the files that I want to backup, back them up for me, reformat my computer, and then restore all of my files. Then, install all of my software again." Ugh.

 

I say that the next Macbook just have something like the Optimus keyboard, so you can put whatever useful icons you want on the keys.

 

Totally disagree, because I've always got a ton on my mind and the bigger the textbox, the better. Why go with less room when you can have more? Plus, as the saying goes: bigger is better!

 
Commented on FIFO

Yeah, it orders by date_added and I had two tabs open in the admin with two different dates, but submitted the newer one first.

 
Commented on Wet Socks

I'm serious, this is my #1 pet peeve of all time.
