How come when I’m in the Chevy and creep off the boulevard to grab a burger at the drive-thru, the guy working the fries completes my order by loading seventeen napkins into my bag? Am I supposed to leave a trail of napkins on the road as I leave so that I can find the restaurant next time I’m hungry? Should I upholster the interior with these napkins? Does this dude think I’m an uncoordinated slob? F-U!! *double birds*
$89 for a 4′ HDMI cable that is worth $2? I bought two 10′ HDMI cables with the same specs for less than $10 including shipping. They’ve worked flawlessly. But hey, I have to give their marketing department credit for actually convincing people that they need to spend the extra $87 for the Monster Brand. I’m just surprised that there are enough people willing to drop a Benjamin for a single cable in the world to keep them going. I would think that people who are that into a/v equipment would take two seconds to do a little research online and learn the truth.
I’m convinced that webmasters live entirely in virtual la-la land, sipping on Java and an RSS IV shoved in their eyesockets for nutrition. If they fail to get a dose of new material and are force-fed leftovers from yesterday’s blog, they get all pissy and go phishing for a taste of something new. So what am I complaining about? I’m complaining about people who have time to complain professionally ’cause me? I got too much shite to do. I’m going back to work.
Just some stupid gatorade ad campaign.
WTF is with people abandoning baby anythings on the side of the road/in a dumpster/wherever? People, people – take responsibility. Listen to Bob Barker and get your pets spayed or neutered (this applies to your daughter too if her name is Nadya Suleman). If you let your dog have puppies, take care of them yourself or find them a good home. Think long and hard about wtf is wrong with you if you even consider leaving baby animals on the side of the road?
Anyway – these little guys need a home or some foster parents. Contact us if you can help.
…like Anderson Cooper and John King? Gray hair is associated with wisdom and experience, but their faces betray ’em. Nothing against them as far as newscasters, really, they do their jobs fine and even have insightful things to say. What is stupid is the blatant change in image. I miss Janis Joplin!
Ok, first off, Yelp is a cool idea and I used to think it was a cool site, but… wtf is up with censoring negative posts? And while I’m at it, wtf is up with celebrating people who write hundreds of one sentence posts? How is that helpful or useful except in stroking that author’s ego? It seems like a lot of people just doing reciprocal clicking on “cool” or “useful”. You click my ego, I’ll click yours.
So let me go back to the censorship part for a second. Let’s go back about a year… I was really getting into reviewing all types of businesses, both good and bad. Mind you, these weren’t one or two sentence posts, but full on five paragraph essays. So one weekend I had a really awful experience at a T-Mobile store (surprise, surprise) and decided to write it up. I made sure to follow their guidelines, referring to them several times as I wrote yet another masterpiece. Well, I logged back in two weeks later to check a restaurant review and to my dismay the post was gone… vanished… it had ceased to be. WTF yelp?
Needless to say, that was the last time I wasted any time on yelp. If they are removing well crafted reviews and celebrating one sentence gibberish, I will find honest reviews elsewhere.
The Jolly Roger. Black flag with skull and crossbones. You know what else is crossed? My arms…both in confusion and frustration trying to make some sense of this design concept. I’ve never seen a skeleton contribute to sailing a ship. He’s not going to sit in on a game of poker with the crew. He won’t improve morale with his incomprehensible moaning that he tries to pass off as banter. And the color scheme? Was black fabric available at discount prices in the age of exploration?
So if I get some tests done and I am uninsured, the the lab will bill twice as much as if I went through insurance. You can always see the negotiated rates cutting the bill in half. Would not it make sense to give discount to cash patients for whom you don’t have to do all this extra insurance billing?
Three covered fillings and I still owe my dentist $600?! Please explain to me how anyone can call that covered? I think it’s time they look into hiring a better negotiator to secure those “negotiated” rates. Maybe one that carries a lead pipe.
