Oh, I almost forgot, pass daddy that Q-pon book...
"Whaddaya mean......expired? If I don't get the 50 cents off, I don't want it."
Cashier, into microphone, "Manager to Lawn and Garden for an override."
After a few years away from HBO, I returned last week, and I'm binge-watching Game of Thrones, starting in season 4, which I am now in the middle of. So what's the trivial annoyance in that? It's when my wife comes in and sits down and asks me the explain it all to her.
"What are the white walkers?"
"Whose baby is that?"
"How are all these people related?"
"Why are those people wandering around in the woods?"
Watching TV or a movie and having my wife ask about every ten minutes..."Wha tdid they say?" Learning to watch with captions is another annoyance! And apparently, her hearing is fine.
‘Wives“. Pretty much sums up the previous 2 posts.
Beach, Americus...we love you on the board. Just know you irritate the crap out of your husbands. Perhaps you should make it up to them. New clubs, new electronics, whatever they’re into. That’s the clean suggestion.

I’ll just stand way over here out of the line of fire.

Don’t fret my fellow man! I’ve already predicted the responses and have a premeditated answer to put them back in their place!
. We’re good.

While I'd like to stand united with you, I'd rather not risk going without it for the next month.

It’s cute that you think we don’t know we’re irritating you when we do stuff like that!! Next time take the trash out the first time you’re asked and maybe we won’t have to resort to such tactics.

I've likely already posted this annoyance, but it's worth another mention.
Why the hell are so many people incapable of answering two distinct questions in an email exchange?
I send emails to colleagues and clients frequently with a whopping grand total of two (usually simple) questions.
Two. That's all.
Why is it that 80% of them answer the first (or at least acknowledge its existence) but completely miss or ignore the second question??
Drives me nuts.

This is a test isn't it? You put two questions in your post so I'll say 1. I don't know and 2. I don't know.

How do websites know exactly when you are about to click something? It's like, you patiently wait while a page loads, then you hover your mouse over a link, and you click, but the page moves and you've clicked on the wrong thing. The timing is uncanny. No matter how long you wait, and how careful and patient you are, somehow it knows the precise split second when you are going to click, and it moves at just the right time for you to click the wrong thing. Amazing.
Having to rush in order to catch a connecting flight and not having time to go potty.

That last coffee seemed like a good idea at the time.

Exactly! I had to hustle off a four and a half hour flight onto a three and a half hour flight, so I didn't even have time to properly stretch my legs. I had a window seat so once we were cruising and the seat belt sign was turned off, 'Sorry fellas, I need out. Homie has to tinkle.'
Order within the next 27 min and get it delivered tomorrow Saturday the 5th. Yes! I’ll pay the extra 12 bucks because I need that now! Check order status about an hour later to make sure it is the right part, and it is correct but I see, “payment needs to be edited”. Edit it, processed!! Yay! Still charged me the 12 bucks for tomorrow’s delivery date and it will be here Monday.
Ground thumpers at the driving range.
Am I the only one who believes that restaurant restrooms with only air hand dryers and inward opening doors should be a health code violation?
