Meh - my town can't even PRODUCE snow. Seriously, it was 72 F / 22 C here today.

I've come to remember my most hated adversary... spiral ****ing notebooks -.- Who thought it would be a good idea to put an obstacle in a notebook ? I need to buy those taped composition notebooks next year.

Hi, I hate to search for low priced apartment when I spend my vacances in another country. Searching in the internet is cheaper than searching when you're there...but takes hours to find the proper place..

perhaps this has come up before, but any form you're supposed to tear off, that's perforated about a millimeter from the fold in the paper. is pointless and stupid and makes me hate it!

Yesterday I had that with a refund check, and the "please return this portion" of a bill from my student loan company. So I tear off the portion, write numbers on it, include a check, put it in the included envelope... and it won't fit. It's like. 5mm too tall to close properly. So I look more closely and yep, I tore it at the fold, not at the perforation. Which isn't tearable now, since the strip of extra paper is too narrow.

I wound up just stuffing it into the envelope anyway and using a piece of tape to be sure it stayed shut. Now when it arrives to be processed it'll probably snag in some machine and get lost, and they'll charge me $87.50 in late fees and interest, all because their own prepared papers are poorly designed.

Because you did not make a mistake.

That they did not foolproof into the Design.

It's actually the act of getting angry about it which is annoying. You could as well stay calm and cut off the extra 5mm with scissors, but we all know, it won't work like that. At that point, we want to become angry.

I think it's pointless and stupid that toes have to ache so much when you run into a door with a foot. It happens maybe once or twice a year, but the pain often makes me so angry that I can barely restrain myself from smashing something within arm's reach or hitting the wall with my bare fist... and probably break my hand... which would make me even more angry, although in a less aggressive manner then :rolleyes:

Elderly people who ask about the weather when the window is a foot away from their head. They are stuck in the old days mindset when there were no computers or anything, so all they did was keep their houses clean and discuss the weather. Why don't they get with the times or at least stop pretending this is the old days?

Knowledge about the weather does not affect the weather. Hating on the weather won't change it either. If you never go outside, EVER, what does the weather even matter to you? They also wake up at 5:30 in the morning, so they had plenty of time to check out the weather. ARRRRG!! I am not the damn weather man!!!!
