I’d like to start compiling a list of things that have made people’s brains hurt. Post here things that were so wrong or so stupid as to have a physical effect on you.
Here’s my two most memorable so far;
[list type=1]
[li]Watching American Beauty when the mother says, “That was wonderful, honey! You didn’t screw up once!”[/li][li]Listening to an sixth-grade choir trying to hit the high note at the end of “Danny Boy.”[/li][/list]
Listening to my friend classify *EVERY SINGLE TYPE OF MUSIC AND CLOTHING!!! *
Walking in a room to hear “Mambo #5” blasted at 200 some decibles.
Hearing people say “You know, I bet HE’S the one who will kill us all…”
Having been told to envision my parents engaging in sexual intercourse. YUCK
Basically anything my roommate says. he quit smoking cigars because he decided he was becoming “addicted” to them. This week he started smoking cigarettes.
I work tech support… I have many of these. Big ones are-
Dealing with Macintosh customers.
People who don’t acknowledge something I’ve said
People who refuse to follow orders
People who do what I say and then click on a bunch of other stuff
People who call up and say they’re losing thousands of dollars a day because their machine is broken, but won’t entertain the notion of paying $500 for a backup
People who expect me to be able to fix ANY computer, regardless of whether I am being paid to support it
People who are SOOO important they can ignore you when you speak directly to them. They do NOT have MY respect. Happens about twice a day. “Hi there, sir, what can I help you with” ::silence:: Well, fuck you too, sir.
