    There's a radio station in Philly that one year started with the Christmas tunes the day after Halloween. Talk about overkill. Yeah that REALLY puts you in the Holiday spirit, I'm being sarcastic just to clarify the Christmas spirit thing.

    Why is it that companies with a customer service phone number always choose the employee with the absolutely horrid voice to handle the calls?  You know, the kind of voice that just grates on your nerves ..... >:)
    You realize that most customer service (the big companies) are "offshore" as they put it.

    Silver Bells will always be by Bing Crosby for me, there is no other version I will play or listen to. Grew up listening to that one and it was my favorite and Grandma’s favorite before she passed. I listen to it many times every Xmas and makes me think of and remember her.

    Drove to the parking lot where we were meeting family to all drive down to our Uncle’s place this year. 1/8th mile from the parking lot we had the rear driver tire blow out. Had to leave the car locked up and transfer everything over to our Parent’s car and drive down. Borrowed their extra to drive home and for Amanda to use tomorrow for work and I have to go after work to deal with it tomorrow. F’ing pissed because they are brand new tires that are 2 weeks old.

    My dishwasher is a roulette wheel on whether or not it completes a cycle.  Not sure why, but about a month ago it started blinking in the middle of the cycle and you'd have to restart it a couple times.

    But I ran it about a dozen times since last Tuesday and every one of them but one worked fine.

    And I have a car window that doesn't work, but it's not the motor, it's stupid design and wiring.  I either need to splice a bunch of wires or get a new wiring bundle that costs about $300.  Stupid Chevy Equinox.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    Auto repairs, or a lack thereof... Car was being serviced for a week only to get it back so I can kill time on this thread while waiting for a tow.

    I hate when one little flying bug gets in the house and when I get something to swat it, I can't find it. Then I sit down and it flies right around to annoy me.

    The unexplained scent of baby diaper (minus any visible babies) that wafts through the office in the afternoons.

    My Wife using up all the printer paper for her school.  Luckily I have plenty of shipping labels so I can still send out cigars.

    This one made me cringe.  You have no idea how many herpes cases I've seen in ER where the guy says "My Dr. told me I have jock itch, but it's not going away."  :s

    I hate that cats always let you know they need to go out after they've puked all over your chair.  It's never before.
