Trials!!! And douche bag defense attorneys

My sympathy, can't be fun for anyone (except douche bag attorneys).

It may have been said before, but; Scented Trash Bags. 

I hate them.

Put my foot on the pedal, kitchen garbage opens, smell of bad chicken and lavender.

 Blecch! 

I'd rather just have the garbage smell.

dirtdude

Depends on how bad the chicken is

I hate when my mind and heart still tells me I can compete with 20 year olds and my body says **** off.

I hate it when my favorite BOTL's plan on making the Chicago herf, and then are forced to change plans and back out.  #weepyface

Just an observation - I can't imagine why you guys want to herf in Chicago in the WINTER!!  I've been there in the winter. There are about ten kajillion reasons to do it at some other time. 

You gotta be nutso to go to Chicago voluntarily in the winter.....

Vapeing.....and the vile stench they make. 

ZuluEchoPapa

People driving and playing on their phones. that drives me nuts!

Wylaff

That to place a phone call I have to fumble around my dashboard for 30 seconds while driving instead of raising the phone to where I can still see the road. I get it, but every time I have to do something "hands free" it feels a million times more dangerous than it would have been had i been allowed to touch my phone.

I hate it when "12 hours relief" on the bottle means THREE hours relief in the real world.

CharlieHeis

I hate that I can't send some of this -23º and -40 wind chill down to Nick.

I just hate winter.
Cold, wet, grey, and just miserable.
People become stupid.
They either drive way to slow or too fast. 
Most of the shouldn't be on the road, because they aren't experienced enough to drive in snow and ice.
The other day, Portland was so messed up that it took 3 hours to go 15 miles. WTF?

I think we should ban winter.

First_Warrior

Having to wear long johns, regular clothes,hat, and insulated coveralls. NC mountain winters are the pits!!!

I'm not too fond of the respiratory virus than appears to be near epidemic here in SE New England.

It's here in Cali too.

Constant back pain and not being able to drink. Two tortures in one- or 3 if you include the wife...

One thing that really torques me is ungraciousness. There are two people in my life who are completely ignorant in terms of manners and graciousness. One is a family member, the other is not. 

Both are Okies. Now, hold on - before you jump down my throat, let me tell you a couple things. 

Californians are known to be 'down' on Okies. It's too bad, because I know a number of them and they're good folks. Back in 1979 I was living here in California when a company I had worked for in the past called me and offered me a job on a construction project in Oklahoma. 

It was a good offer and I accepted. I thought it also was a good opportunity to observe Okies in their home state - surely they weren't as bad as some Californians thought. And I was right. 

But there were a few points where they should really brush up on their manners. For example.....

I have given gifts to both of the individuals mentioned above. On more than one occasion. And invariably, these guys didn't like what I gave them. Now, most folks would be gracious enough to either not mention the gifts beyond the point of saying thank you or they'd pretend that they liked them and life would go on. 

Both of these guys guys have either called me up or told me to my face that they didn't like what I had given them and gave it back!  

Now, these gifts weren't a bunch of cheap sh*t but we're not talking about value, we're talking about courtesy, graciousness. And the only reason I singled them out as Okies is that I've never had anyone else be so rude. One of them was born and raised in Oklahoma and the other has one parent who was. 

And I've tried gently hinting to them that their manners weren't quite up to par and suggested ways to deal with that. They didn't get it. They just don't have a clue. Their whole attitude is "Don't know - Don't wanna know!"

Guess I'll just give up and stop giving them a damned thing...

That's just being an a$$hole

90+_Irishman

That's some BS Marty, that would piss me off to no end and I wouldn't personally be associating with them anymore if they treated me like that. Maybe I'm too harsh, but I would be done. Sorry that has happened brother, don't let them get you down you are an amazing guy!

Is the boss complaining about his employees?

Little bit. Some of the younger generation feels so entitled it makes me sick. 

Wylaff

The older generations are not immune from the same problem
