h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Day time television. Especially talk shows. I've no idea why they still call tehm talk shows. Gone are hte days when there was actually dicussion on them, now it's a case of let's get some people on here that everyone can take the mick out of, and then have them argue with themselves aswell. Not my idea of entertaiment.

Orange people.

Fake tans look very, very stupid.

People who are so used to their speedy internet connections and attach huge files to their emails, like photos that are 1240xwhatever, not thinking that the person at the other end might be on a dial up.

I'm getting onto a roll here

People who reply/forward emails without deleting all the irrelevant junk from them. Not long down the line you end up with a message that has been back and forth accros the 'net a dozen times and the email is stupidly long.

Bosses who have learnt a little about what it is you actually do and think they know everything about it, and then complain that you aren't doing your job fast/well enough because they now know what it is you do and they think they could do it faster.

It *sounds* like I'm saying PIN number.....but I'm actually saying PI Number

Whoever runs the excel courses here....I mean surely the courses should include *something* about formatting....having to show someone who is supposed to be qualified how to create borders around a table is just sad.

Project managers who seem all sympathetic and "on your side" right up to the moment when you're all in the bosses office and then the creeping little sh*t doesn't stand up for any of you, but passes more blame onto you all instead.

Washing up.

Those stupid little key things on tins of processed meat, that you are supposed to wind around the tin an not need a tin opener. These never work.

Emptying the dishwasher....more specifically the cutlery....annoys the hell out of me for absolutely NO reason.

Being treated like an idiot at a garage because I haven't the fainest clue what a carberretor is.

Odd shaped mouse mats.

That one's wierd I know, but I keep getting my mouse caught on the edges.

ISPs that cut you off after two hours.

Cable companies that advertising on a bill board at the end of your street, but don't supply your street and have no immediate plans, or even intentions of supplying your street.

Builders who think that sticking a bit of tarpaulin over a gaping hole in your roof and then leaving it until summer when it's warmer is the best way to stop water dripping in.

People who insist on having a conversation with you on a speaker phone.

I'm not bitter at all am I?

Pastey! Somethings up your butt today.

Life, the universe and everything?

I'm still at home, waiting to get my car back from the garage, and I know I'm going to get a load of grief/possible sack as soon as I can actually get into work.

Biggest petty hate, Waiting.

Waiting for something good is worse than waiting for something bad.

Less than 2 weeks until the Zwan album comes out.

*jumps up and down*

Another petty hate :

Itchy heads. You never want to furiously scratch an itch in public, because people might think you have nits...
