Trivial Things That Make You Surly

When people do this I just push by them while loudly saying "excuse me"
If they think I'm being rude they can get out of the way next time. 

One of our family highlights was several years ago, in front of the British Museum. A gaggle of 10 French teenage girls and their chaperone were blocking the entire entrance to the museum while they yammered. I did the throat clear. Nothing. I then walk right up to them, yelled “MOVEZ VOUS!” in my best ugly American. It worked. They scattered. I had fun. Man that pisses me off.

Hopefully in a very heavily affected southern twang.

A friend of mine bought a $5000 truck and dumped $20k into performance mods. He totaled it about a week after it was done so he immediately went out and got a Tahoe to move the entire drivetrain into. He’s 50 with a solid 3 figure retirement account.

He's reached the point where he knows he'll work until the day he dies. Fuck it, might as well go out with a bang.

when people say Jesus tittyfucking Christ

I read through the New Testament a couple times, there's nothing in there about Jesus fucking any titties. Don't try to be Biblical if you don't know the motherfucking Bible. 

Clearly you are not a Nikos Kazantzakis fan.

Count me in. I've got 10 at home.

Had a 30-foot Crepe Myrtle in my front yard in Corpus Christi. Beautiful thing. Never seen anything like it. Loved it, even though it rained pink hell all over my truck twice a year. 

Drove by that house a month after I sold it. Gone. Stupid bastards.

Yeah, there could definitely be a whole thread on bad grammar.  I think "text" stands on it's own though as I believe the people using it as past tense truly think it's correct.  I don't think, when pressed, anyone would argue that "seen" vs "saw" is proper grammar.  But it's like since "text" as a verb is a fairly new word in the English language, there are idiots dug in on it and are just too dumb to figure it out.  You don't say, "I was just text her"...you say, "I was just texting her".  So why the fuck would you say, "I text her"...rather than "I texted her"?

I sexed her

Trade publication subscription calls.

Every Fucking Month.  Its like the fourth level of hell.

 

"Mr. Incredulity this is your last chance to renew your free subscription to Industry Week Monthly."

"Please cancel my subscription."

 

Narrator: They don't.

 

I’ve been getting one to two calls a day from an asshole company telling me they can lower my credit card rates or some shit. I kept hanging up once they start the spiel and they keep calling back. I decided to let them “help” me so I hung on the line until a real person picked up and started speaking like Marfan Mike asking for help. They hung up immediately. Must have taken my number off their list because my phone has been blissfully silent this year.

 

This pleases me so maybe wrong thread.

We now know one of Vic's sock accounts.

I like how the defense for watching bowling was "I was channel surfing" but then there's a ready admission of watching women's bowling. 

"I was only watching the NBA because I was channel surfing. But I do like watching the WNBA"

How the fuck old are some of you that you watch women's bowling.

Not hating underdog, you do you, I'm into some weird shit too. Just more confused than anything.

I have one of those roomba vacuum cleaners. It does a good job. But about every 60 to 90 days it makes me reaffirm my email and password.

WHY? I doubt there will be a rogue house cleaner hacker wanting to clean the shit out of my place. I simply want to press a button and it clean.

Some apps and their security need to stand down with what they feel is important.

You sure your vacuum isn’t phishing you?

Scan credit card at gas station.

No, not debit.

Zip code.

Enter.

Confirmed.

Select grade.

Grade lights up.

Take nozzle from rack.

Insert nozzle in orifice.

Squeeze trigger.

.01 oz flows through hose.

Squeeze trigger again.

...

Turn around grade is still selected.

Confirmed is on screen.

Squeeze trigger again.

...

...

Would you like a car wash today?

 

 

Every damn time. No! You slow piece of shit.

 

Then you get instantaneously blasted by pop news buzz and streaming ads as soon as the pump kicks on. You have enough computing power to blast ads in my face, but not enough to juice over your 2400 baud modem to display a single sentence prompt?

Pretty sure it’s implied. Gotta read it in the original Greek and it makes sense. “Loaves” and “fishes”....think about it.

Wife hasn’t donated blood to the Red Cross for a few years now, borderline HBP, yet we still get calls from them asking for donations and we don’t even answer the calls.  

Damn, reminds me, I need to go donate. Thanks for posting!

Uh, forgetting to give blood makes me surly. Qualified!

I would never make fun of anyone's desire to watch a sporting event of any description. When we first got cable television back in the bronze age, and ESPN was fresh and new, I was addicted to Australian Rules Football, equestrian events, lumberjacking, women's field hockey, indoor soccer, you name it.

I was always disappointed that those Fox regional sports commercials for things like "Tree Catching" were fake. That would be quality television.

Anytime a news outlet uses BuzzFeed as a source.  To be so lazy as to cite a group who's sole existence is centered around generating listicles and click bait...

 

Example:

Buzzfeed and Buzzfeed News are 2 separate entities. 

I guess you discount that they employ finalists for the Pulitzer Award in International Reporting while employed with Buzzfeed News.  Buzzfeed News is also part of the White House Press Corps.
