have you never heard of the "courtesy flush"?

In close quarters, this single act (timing is everything) can all but erase the stench exuded, all the while ensuring that if thorough whiping challenges a less than trustworthy latrine you will have only toilet water and tp to contend with.

good tip, but i think floop was just recommending getting your ass up off the seat while flushing and then plopping right back down once the danger has passed. which i have put into practice religiously since reading his post. it seems so obvious. truly i was... an amateur.

i just think its a foolhardy thing to do, flushing while sitting down, unless you want shitty public toilet water spraying on your bare ass



back to pet peeves

- being on vacation somewhere and overhearing other people who are from where you are from meeting and talking about a bunch of shit in your neighborhood, transporting you out of your vacation mode and back to reality

- anyone who has an audible cell ringtone. especially if its the default iPhone one with the stupid acoustic guitar thing

- litter in pristine wilderness areas. what kind of douchebag hikes 5 miles to a beautiful location then tosses a plastic bottle in the bushes? a special kind

People who talk too long about a subject. Most of us know how much to say about something after which it would become stupid and annoying. Those that lack natural ability in this area need to go to special public classes or something.

a son of a gun named extinction. we're crapping on our plates and too dumb to mind the shift in flavour.

- when a first prize in a prize draw has infinitely less (i.e. zero) practical value to you compared to lower placed prizes, and can't be traded
- wasting your long and hard collected luck on such an event

- servers bolting after they bring you your food without checking if you need anything, like some hot sauce

is bad service a pet peeve or just bad service?

- anything that makes noise in my or someone else's car. something rolling around in the trunk, or some rattle or squeak under the car.. this drives me crazy

"do you have a rewards card with us?"

no

"would you like to sign up for one? it's free, and you'll save 10 percent on your purchase"

thats ok. thanks though


it's just awkward. every damn store I walk into seems to have a policy in place that forces their employees to ask, on their employers behalf, if I would like to enter into some deeper relationship with their store. what ever happened to just simply buying something over the counter? heres some money, give me my change, put the items in a fucking bag and have a nice day.

12hrs of recording studio, but you have to have a band to use it (anyone up for it?...travel expenses not in the prize i'm afraid). some of the lower prizes were actual pieces of equipment. to have, for good. by other people.

wholeheartedly agree. shopping is getting more and more perverse and new stores are starting to do it because their competition is doing it already. they play nice but it's plain disrespect, they should just openly say what they're really trying to do- give us all information on your habits and all your intimate details so we can guide you and your wallet.

large coffee black no sugar

what the hell? when I order a plain slice, the guy behind the counter doesn't follow up with "would you like extra cheese on that?"

when stores ask "what's your zip code?" for the purchase, just say, "I'm Canadian" - usually works when i'm shopping stateside. i assume because we are 6 alphanumeric characters and you guys are just 5 digits....

back on topic. what's the big fuckin' deal with Greek Yogurt? What's wrong with my regular yogurt, has it become unhealthy somehow? and the people at work that eat Greek Yogurt....don't get me started - fuckin' prima donna foodie wannabes or something. i think the bacterial culture in Greek yogurt is as stable as the Greek economy/political system - fuck Greek Yogurt. Oikos this!

great. now every time someone asks me "have you tried greek yogurt yet? it's so good" i'm going to hear "have you tried buttsex yet? it's so good?" and then get a funny smirk and they'll be like "what's so funny?" and i'll be like "you ever watch a porno and they totally surprise you with the greek yogurt scene?" and they'll be like "no; what are you on about?" and i'll be like "yeah, no, never tried greek yogurt......or buttsex for that matter (which may or may not be a lie)" and then the conversation will abruptly end.

There's a place I go for lunch every week or two. I admit I always order the same thing. Big deal, right? That dish is the only thing I want there.

A while back the wise guy cashier started telling me my order before I could say it: "Veggie combo..."

Recently he started adding snide comments about it. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

See if I order it again, motherfucker. The boycott is on.

Not if they're rushing to serve me next

People in front of me in line who stop to chat after they've finished being served. Go look up a neighbor!

staying at a hotel and housekeeping knocks on your door at 9:30 am. I realize you can put the do not disturb sign on but it should already be implied that not disturb at 9:30, shouldn't it?

people on the bus who sit on the aisle side of the seat, leaving the window seat empty or parking their bag on it, and not moving over when there is standing room only. i see this all the time. i get pissed, and i'm not even one who's standing and in need of a seat! look around you. the bus is packed. move the fuck over so someone can sit down. this also helps to alleviate congestion in the aisles when someone needs to get off.

people looking down at their phones while walking and not knowing who theyre about to bump into. Why should I move? if theyre too fucking ignorant to assume I will move they can fuck off. motherfuckers think theyre mr magoo of the digital age. next time ill ram into one with my sons pram and punch them in the face. Its ok though because ill smarmily say 'sorry i wasnt looking' - seems to be enough reasoning for being a cunt.
