Things that annoy you

#607
Just look at this BS. I just went into a 7-Eleven and the front of this chicken salad wrap looks great but then you turn it around and it's empty 2/3 of the way down so there's basically one scoop in the very middle and then it's cut and there's practically nothing else but bread. This really annoys me, if you're going to make a wrap or a sandwich make it with meat and stuff, do it the whole length of the sandwich.

This also annoys me: People who think they have talent, and post wanna-be Blues lyrics like:

I got a girl,
Her name is, Sue.
She don't dress in yellow,
She dress in blue.

She likes to cook cabbage,
She likes to cook beets,
It tastes real good,
But it smells like feets! :p

Annoying to the tenth power!

Mike :D

Those are great blues lyrics. I'd buy the album.

When the local police camp out in the passing lane, just like the folks they should be pulling over for doing the same.
Tonight I came up to a stop light & there's a vehicle in the passing lane stopped at the light & no other vehicles around.
It turned green before I reached it, so I blew past at full speed in the adjacent lane, and that's when I realized it was a police cruiser :wideyed:

It's easier for them to scan both sides of the street in the center lanes, and they probably best be going slower than passing speed if they're eyes aren't on the road in front of them.

But if you think they're just lolligagging without cause, try making a citizens arrest :woot:

I get annoyed by people here on talkbass who are clearly here just to annoy people. There is one that does it so well I've gotten numb to it, and now often laugh. Starting to even feel sorry for the dude. Can't imagine someone who is happy and content that wants to antagonize people. I don't think that happens.

I'll tell you what gets me. It is while doing sound for a crappy bar band, and someone shows up with an over complicated rig. Tonight, it was a keyboard guy. He had a Nord, and a Yamaha piano. Great, but he brought a mixer, two powered speakers and a rack full of of I don't even know what. I started counting the control knobs on his equipment, and I quit counting at 147! Fer crying out loud. He's playing in a little hole in the wall bar, with a singer who couldn't carry a tune in a bucket, a drummer who thinks he's Neil Pert, and two guitarists who can only "get their sound" by cranking 100 Watt Marshall amps all the way up, and now he's gotta bring a freaking recording studio for me to take three lines into my board so a bunch of drunk fat chicks can dance, (and bump into the table where I am sitting with my iPad, spilling beer all over the place). So at the end of the night, the bar owner pays his five piece band 300 bucks, (one hundred of which I get just for the grief of having to listen to his sorry-ass band). All the while he fiddles with knobs, and changes levels, and he can't make a Nord sound good. Give me a freakin' break.
