Shit that annoys you

[irul&ublo]

Ain't that the truth.

'Drive as if YOUR kids lived here' signs are popping up all over this town, yet the soccer moms are the worst offenders.

They’re just trying to get your attention for der poopenhausen

Google maps tells me to go north, turn left. Except north is right. Then it tells me to go west turn right, but right is east.

Walking the dog, pass a 30 something guy, long hair, beard. I say "evening". He says "whatever." Guess I might as well go back to being my usual antisocial self.

A throat punch is the recommended COA following his response

In Bellingham it should be drive like your mentally ill, crisis ridden addict having an episode lives here.

I am so tired of adults running out into the street where ever when ever they want to.

Also riding bikes the wrong way in bike lanes, sitting down in the road, sleeping on the fog line, in the bushes alternatively screaming in anger and dancing with glee...

And nobody cares. Nobody even notices anymore.

I dunno, I would have laughed, it's kinda comical.

[Ted Striker]

Me too. But then again, I live in the Passive-aggressive North West.

[Danno]

the Passive-aggressive North West.

that explains so much about some people here

One of my favorite things to do is to watch local minor league team on a nice day/evening and crush beers

Been a while, but we had fun going to local games. Cheap beer (and bats), and there was a guy that was at every game that was a world class heckler. Guy was hilarious and basically talked uninterrupted shit for the full 9 innings.

Today I have not 1 but 2 K-max Heli-s practicing bucket work on the pond not 150 yds from my home.

Guy that owns the land (75 acres) also owns local Heli flight service and is a helluva pilot. Lately he has been using the pond for other pilots to get training hours for Wildland fire.

At first is was cool. Now it is just fucking annoying. Good thing a K-max is quiet, sort of.

[Danno]

He should give you heli rides to make up for the annoyance.

How so many dealers on Autotrader/CL/etc. list cars with automatic transmissions as manuals. Doing a quick search for a friend who's looking for an old Lexus IS300 for a toy and like 9 out of 10 of the results (when I had "manual transmission only" specifically selected were freaking automatics. Not 3 pedals? Not a manual, douche bags. This phenomenon always bugs me so bad when car hunting. Can we report them for blatantly inaccurate listings?

Setting up new phone and having to go into every single app and turn notifications off.

If the phone had its way it would send me a text to let me know when I receive an email, and a push notification to let me know that I got the text.

The clicking sound that GoPro's make on videos of Jerry getting maytagged.

my wife has notifications for every app on her phone--various news sources, groupon--if she brings it into the bedroom I get to hear it dinging all night. And of course she pays no attention to any of the notifications, including texts; I've given up trying to text her and she complains that the kids text me but not her.

Apparently, in the last few years, all tv manufacturers decided to change from a center mounted single pillar in the middle, to two feet on the outside of the TV, making it impossible to put the TV on any of our tv stands or entertainment centers. Don't want to mount to the wall, or pay hundreds of dollars for three new tv stands. WTF?

You probably can get an adapter. The pattern should be one of the normal VESA options.

Local news reports that a woman who was killed over the weekend will be honored with a balloon release.

WTF? They are going to litter and kill animals in her honor. Nice.

When are people going stop doing balloon releases?
