People who insist on sending me chain mail, urban legends, requests to sign Internet petitions, and emails comparing my friendship to that of an ANGEL HERE ON EARTH. And most especially, heart-warming stories of motherhood.

When I’ve asked them 1 rhyseanillion times to quit!

The fact that Papa Tiger will turn away from the channel a program we’re watching is on at EVERY commercial just to “skip the commercials,” thereby often causing us to miss the first 15 seconds of the program by the time I can persuade him to turn BACK to its channel – and yet if we’re watching the same program on tape, he’ll let the commercials run!! Aaaaarrrrrggghhh!

I hate when people ask stupid questions.

I hate when people use empty expressions like “that’s cool”. Especially when something isn’t cool.

I hate when my burps smell like baloney and there are other people in the vicinity.

I hate that I’m working on a Saturday afternoon.

Overly negative people.

Ewww, it’s zombie pudding from HELL!

I hate people who think they know technology but they actually don’t know Jack from Shit, then call me at work because they can’t figure it out, then argue with me when I try to tell them the answer. Goddammit, it’s my job to know these things, don’t fucking call me if you’re gonna fucking argue motherfucker!

Since being on-line, although I love where I live, I hate being so damn far away from people I’ve come to know as dear friends through the SDMB.

And I hate being reminded of how far away I am from them.

Bugger.

Especially when I ask them “Tell me what’s going on today” and they waste 5 minutes or longer complaining about how long the problem’s gone on, how many times they’ve called tech support, etc, etc.

Look, if you wanna hear yourself bitch, don’t call me. I’m not a psychologist. I’m here to do one of two things:

a: walk you through a series of steps to solve your problem

b: refer you to someone who can

Someone else was sitting in my cube today. I had to set up a brand new workstation, and this chair is uncomfortable. I hate that.
