Time To Complain

Okay I am starting a new thread. Basically you can tell everyone what has you ticked and let it all out. I think this could be interesting to see what can make people upset.

Lately my Number 1 annoyance is people who yell into their cell phones in elevators. It's not like I can even step away from them or anything.

last night i had a baseball game against one of the best teams in our district, Sherando. We were down 4-2 in the bottom of the fourth. It was absolutely POURING down rain and we knew we probably had to score at least 2 runs right then or we were going to lose. we came back and took a 5-4 lead. There is absolutely no way we should have continued playing. the field was a damn swamp. but the umps didnt stop it. they scored 2 runs and had a 6-5 lead. It DEFENETILY shouldnt have gone even farther and if they called it there we wouldve still won because they wouldve had one more at bat than us and it wouldve reverted back to the previous inning in which we were leading 5-4. The Umps still didnt call it! we went one two three and the they called it and we lost 6-5!! after the game everyone was pissed and one of the players on our team said somethin when we were shakin hands or whatever and a fight nearly broke out. the controversial finish reminded me Ravens vs. Pats( :angry: :angry: :angry: ) and Ravens vs. Steelers( :angry: )

My biggest (non-personal) annoyance this week has been tailgaters. No, not the people who have BBQs at football games, but the people who ride up behind you and keep trying to make you go faster.

I swear I'm not going slow, b/c I'm doing 60 or 55 in a 45. But on the same token, in areas where I KNOW there are speed traps, I'll follow the speed limit, especially when there are those electronic speedometers posted near speed limit signs. And seeing as how it's the end of the month, of course I'm gonna be more careful since cops are trying to make their numbers and are trying to hand out more tickets.

It's especially pretty bad here on campus, where the speed limits are significantly reduced because of all the students -- and people still speed.

The thing that REALLY gets on my nerves is UK Customs Duty and Import Tax when importing goods from the US!
There's so many things i want to get in the Ravens or NFL store but the prices will increase by around 30% minimum so the UK don't miss out on earning money off my purchase :angry: :angry:

It's basically because things are usually cheaper in the US than over here so it's their way of making the costs even so you don't want to import anymore and your purchases stay in the UK. The problem with that is finding high quality Ravens gear over here is like looking for a grain of salt on a beach!!!!!! :(

Rant over....... I feel better now :P

Brian Robiskie is starting to annoy me..

I dont understand whats so great about him.. 42 receptions for 535 yards? Thats 2nd round quality? Compare that to Kenny Britts's 87 receptions 1,371 yards and the choice seems very clear to me.. Britt is the type of player that fits our system perfectly and i dont understand how people want Robiskie drafted over him..

Mr Sham Wow got arrested for hitting a working woman in Miami.


My pet peeve of the day is parents that think scout leaders are child care and babysitters.

my pet peeve is one of my bosses (i work as a valet, and a 15 minute cushion is very nice to have to set up) but nooo she has to go and schedule us right on top of when people start coming in so no real chance to set up, than she threatens to fire my friend and i for having plans on spring break (and we give her a month's notice when we request off too)

thats the thing, i didn't break any part of the contract, first time i've requested any days off since i've gotten the job, and there isn't anything i can do about the schedule time, i've asked her if we can come in earlier and she snaps that it costs the club too much money, than complains today about how we weren't on time when we got there at like 5:28 (scheduled for 5:30) but some of the "guests" came in at like 5:15

I hate it when parents let their child touch everything. Such as in stores crawling on the floors, or touching every item. I even saw a woman let a kid walk up a stairway with his hands in a doctors building where you know mad germs are around. To top it off, I was at a baseball game and this woman was letting her kid eat peanuts off the ground that were there probably from the day before. And than the parents get mad when the kid gets sick, and than spreads to us in the air who are being clean and avoiding germs.

I can't stand when people feel the need to quote an entire post, especially if it is really long, just to reply with one line.

Just make it clear that you're responding to a certain poster...

I can't stand seeing the word beast, beastly, beastlike etc in football forum posts. It's SO overdone and borderline cliche at this point. Also people who think that Michael Vick was a good QB based solely on Maddenomics.

Maybe that's because Vick was a beast in Madden, hence he's the best QB ever.

Same goes for Bo Jackson in Tecmo Bowl...beastly
