Trivial Things That Make You Surly

[Prepuce of Doom 21288]

Yup. I’ve been on a couple of calls where either I or someone else has muted the call and then accidentally hung up instead of turning off the mute because both buttons look the same and are right next to each other.

You guys aren't the only ones.

It only really affects me when it is my neighbors, but I cannot stand seeing someone's house in complete shambles, with crap upon crap all over their yard.  I don't understand it.  I don't understand why someone chooses to live that way, and it should not affect my life in any way.  Serenity now.

Maybe it's just me getting older but people who don't keep their yard manicured bugs the hell out of me. Grass high as hell. Weeds everywhere.

My grandma would always call the city on her neighbors that did that. I have not gotten to that point yet but I now understand why she did.

And half the time, Clown penis.jpg is just a red X, and half the time it is interpreted as a separate attachment, so thanks for fucking up my ability to easily search for emails from you that actually contain substantive attachments.

Oh man, so much this.  There's one guy who has such large as image attachments in his signature that any email he sends is going to be close to 1mb just because of his fucking signature.

[SwanderedTalent 5761]

I don't have any data to prove this but it seems like officials go out of their way to NOT call a safety when a ballcarrier is tackled in the end zone, via favorable interpretation of forward progress.

[EE2B 1569]

Haha. An even better one is that we have a label with the mill emergency number on the spyder phone. The conference call number is hanging on the wall in the conference room. I watched a co-worker give out the emergency number as the conference call number one time. It didn’t take them long to call back and ask for the correct number. This same person also dialed the emergency number himself thinking it was the conference call key code.

But of course and it's critical you include BOTH your personal social media as well as the corporate social media links. All of them. 

And the pics because it's really cool when you have the little twitter bird in your signature. HASHTAG PROFESSIONAL!!

One of Darwins finest took himself out of the gene pool years ago in Waco. He was in the back of the pickup holding onto the mattress as it was flying down Valley Mills Drive. When it flew out he did too. Busted his melon, bad.

The signal for a safety is usually pretty long in coming.  2 points and a KO at stake here.  FG, book it.  TD, usually pretty quick unless it's in the middle of a scrum at the goal line.

At least on a cruise one has the option to jump overboard.

All of this does put me in mind of my other pet peeve at fast food joints. Multiple times, I have heard this exact conversation on a cell phone in line at the same Taco Bell (different callers each time):

"Taco Bell." 

(pause while the other person talks...)

"Tacos."

I was on a call with like 10 people at different locations, thought I was on mute so while one guy was talking I lifted one cheek and ripped a huge fart.  He stuttered and stopped talking and there was an awkward silence and some giggling.  At first I was like “oh shit!”, but then realized nobody could tell who did it.

When you have to make an online profile or during a check out and they automatically tick the box for “want to receive emails with promotions” or whatever, and you don’t see it. Then you get all this fucking emails.

When you finally stop being lazy and decide to unsubscribe to said email and even though you follow the process to completion, you still get emails.

I feel like the last 4-5 safeties I've caught in a game weren't even tackled ball carriers.  They were all fumble out of bounds, intentional grounding in the endzone, etc kind of safeties.

If it was a tackled ball carrier, it was a deep sack.  It seems almost impossible to safety a RB anymore.

Working from home one day, same deal, thought I was on mute, went to take a piss.  Except there were only four people on the call and the guy who works with me knew it was me.  No one said a word at the time.  Big huge horse piss complete with flush.

Getting behind a diesel vehicle on the road.

Fucking assholes that always leave it running when they stop somewhere.

They should move the exhaust pipe to the front of the radiator so these dipshits can inhale that shit while they drive.

I hope someday soon diesel goes up $20 per gallon.

Uptalk.

I fucking hate this speech pattern so got damn much. I immediately calculate minus 50 IQ points from the speaker and it’s hard to like whatever they’re jabbering on about. 

I try to keep an open mind and enjoy hearing the opinions of other, but practitioners of uptalk are shooting themselves in the persuasion foot.

People who put their trash and recycling out the night before when there is like a 90% chance of severe weather. 

I just love waking up to my neighbors’ trash/recycles strewn out all over the neighborhood and yard. 

Come on fucksticks.  Check the weather forecast before putting your trash out overnight.

Pretty sure our recycle bin came with specific instructions to put them in the street with the wheels against the curb. I assume so the truck can pick them up.

I used to wash my car regularly. Then I had kids and my free time disappeared.

And no, I won't pay to have it done because they'll fuck it up. I'd rather just leave it dirty for months at a time.

Oh God you have no idea how much that shit infuriates me. Whoever came up with that method of verification needs to be publicly stoned then crucified. 

Half the time when that comes up I just decide "yeah I didn't really need to log into that site anyway, fuck this"

And the only reason it's a thing is because they use it to crowdsource the accuracy of whatever image detection algorithm they are working on. Just like they used captcha to help improve the accuracy of digitally transferring text. 

I'd almost rather just give them my social security number than play Dora the fucking Explorer and be told I'm a dumbass 3 times before actually getting to log in. "Can you tell me where the stoplights are? Oops! Looks like you missed one! Let's try again!" 

Fuck you and fuck the idiots that can't practice a modicum of cybersecurity that makes it necessary to have shit like this in the first place.
