Maaaan....That's annoying....
I should have bought a lottery ticket, I KNEW that was coming
Decoration?
Seriously people, we shouldn't care how decorative they look, as long as they actually work.
What about this???...I should have bought a lottery ticket, I KNEW that was coming
One of the bands I backed had a song wherein the front threw glitter in the air.
Got inside my electric organ when I doubled, and inside of people's drinks, as they were really close to the stage.
One patron told us that after she had surgery, the doctor asked her if she was an exotic dancer.
When she asked him why, he said he found a piece of it in her navel!
Hey, this same guy gave me a couple or three joints for Christmas years later in the early 2000's.
He was known to smoke great grass himself, but shared the bunk with everyone else back then. Don't know what he did when he was growing it medically.
Through the years, I used to open them up, remove all the leaf (98% of the joint) and then put the immature homegrown buds in a pipe, as body parts are too precious to wreck with crud.
Back to the 2000's...I opened these up, and low and behold, not only did these joints had enough glitter in them to give me a brain hemorrhage, there was so much of it, it couldn't have been an accident. If I did suffer because of it, it would have probably looked like I did it myself in the process!
Looking back now (he said with tongue placed firmly in cheek), that was kind of annoying.
I'll have to ask him about that later, if there's any truth that we will all be together one day....

I knew someone who when prefaced a sentence with that, it was more times than not, a lie!
When someone starts a fun thread asking for specific info that can inspire lots of interaction and creativity between it's forum members, and by page two or three, some killjoy supplies a link from another site with the same topic, that has dozens of pages of replies.
Are you trying to be mean, or trying to be funny? Fine line.
People who leave long drawn out voice mails with way too information but you have to listen to the entire message so you can get their return call number which is always the last thing they'll say instead of the first.
Without fail, after all that time eating monologue, they'll then rattle off their call back number so fast it's impossible to catch it thus requiring you to listen through 3-4 more times.
I miss answer machines that used a tape where you could fast forward.

1) Car fuel ports not being on the same side of the car as an industry standard. It creates a havoc at the gas pumps with cars nose-to-nose etcetera.
2) Drivers who pass you, race up to a stop light, having then to slam on their brakes.
3) People who undersell their gear.
4) Drivers pulling out in front of you only to drive slow.
5) Human arrogance, selfishness, sense of entitlement.

In the pocket n' thumpy. So woody, so greasy...
Slow drivers in the passing lane who pull next to an 18 wheeler (or other vehicle), then find themselves a little side-by-side nesting spot while playing hub-zies with the rig for a mile or so, not allowing others to pass.
If and when they finally do pull to the right, they are not only finally driving the speed limit, but they sometimes now go up to 10 mph faster, so either you really have to break the speed laws to get in front of them so they won't keep repeating that game, or just pass the truck, and resume your place behind the schmo.

So sorry to hear that.....Surprised that you didn't see it coming....
...Grab yourself a piece of chocolate egg and chill man.....
Love and hugs....F.F.....
I agree with 4 of your points. However, if you mean "undersell" literally, I've practically given away gear in the past. I think that depends on the situation, what your options are. If you mean "undersell" figuratively, I have awesome gear.
