The Big List of Things that Suck

I’d like to move to expand this category to any fruit flavored iced tea. The only fruit that should come anywhere my tea is lemon, wedge of.

And to add to the list:
-Working on a Saturday as a salaried (i.e. overtime exempt) employee.

  • Company mandated vactation schedule that come out of my accrued days. Sure, I’d like a week off, but if I’m “paying” for it, I’d like to pick the time myself.
  • Nasal, tone-deaf people who sing “End of the Road” at the top of their lungs at a karaoke bar. While sober!:eek:
  • People (in front of you) who drive too slow in the fast lane, i.e. idiots.
  • People (behind you) who drive too fast in the slow lane, i.e. maniacs.
  • Single driver in the carpool lane.
  • Loud, bass-thumping sound systems in cars driving past my window at 3am.
  • Stores not having snow shovels in stock during worst blizzard in years.
  • Toothaches.

I concur with the entire list of the OP, except for human cloning.


-King Hussein being dead
-(hence) Crown Prince Abdullah not being a crown prince anymore
-nitpicking

Mushrooms in your food, but they’re hidden so you don’t realize you have to scour your food and pick them out and then you get a disgusting surprise when you bite into your food only to discover this nasty, nasty, nasty fungus is lurking in your meal.

I said I was sorry. Why can’t you just let it go. And, I wasn’t rabid. I’d just had a really bad day.

Are you kidding me? The only former President of the last century who’s done ANYTHING useful, after leaving office? What’s up with that?

That he had to wait until he was out of office to be useful?

Taft was a Supreme Court justice,though, I think that’s pretty good. And Teddy Roosevelte caused Wilson to be elected (although unintentionally), so that’s pretty good.

Said to the man who cut me off then stopped at the stop ight I was trying to make…: (he was yelling into his rearview mirror I was yelling out my window)
Gimp, don’t start babbling like you had a mouth full of soiled Depends and a clue in your head.

How could you forget hairballs…of the feline variety…oh yeah and my cat that shits on the floor beside the litter box but never in it.

Of course not, Avril sucks, not her fans. Hey I once bought a Huey Lewis cassete… we all make mistakes :wink:

However, the reason why Avril made the list stems from this interview

I KNOW you aint talkin’ about my momma.

:wally

Now that the old Hussein is dead, his son Abdullah (a different Abdullah) is the new King Hussein - and he like the rest of the Hashemite minority leadership in Jordan sucks. The other Abdullah is from Saudi Arabia, and is still a crown prince, and still sucks verily.

Snow. In April.

Apparently, people really DO have short memories, me included. No one seems to remember that Carter got us out of a pretty nasty recession, and pretty darn quickly. He may have been weak on foreign policy, but he kicked butt, domestically.

I, on the other hand, had completely forgotten Taft (and I don’t think I’m alone, in this). But, while that’s something, I don’t think it takes much for an ex-President to land a seat on the bench. And, it really only benefitted him. But, I’ll give it to you, anyway. I don’t remember the TR story, either, but he gets a free pass just for having created the National Park system. I guess I should have said half-century.

Oh, and for the list of things that suck…

My memory
The fact that chocolate is fattening and broccoli isn’t
The fact that my GF doesn’t
Managers who used to be geeks, and have no people skills, and don’t want any

And, I’ll see DreadCthulhu’s snow, and raise him a freezing rain/ice storm.

Short memory? Me? Ha! I just wasn’t alive in time to remember Carter pulling the country from recession.
