Default 10 Things That Tick Me Off

Got this as an e-mail and the more I thought about it the more validity it has


Subject: 10 Things that Tick Me Off




10. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time. I know where my watch is! Where the hell is
yours?! Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the bathroom is?? Geezus

9. People in the supermarket check out line who wait until their entire bill is rung up before they begin
writing their check. HellOOOooooo!!Is the store name going to change, or the date, or your signature before
the clerk finishes? Get a clue!

8. People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the damn TV remote because
they refuse to walk to the TV and ! change it manually!

7. When people say..."Oh, you just want to have your cake and eat it, too." WTF?? What good is a piece of
cake if you can't eat it? What the hell else would I do... eat someone else's piece of cake instead??

6. When people say..."It's always the last place you look." No shit, Sherlock!! Why would you keep looking
for it after you've already found it?? Do people do this?? Who and where are they?? On second thought, I
don't wanna know.

5. When people say, while watching a movie ... "Did you see that?" No,dumb ass! I paid $8.50 to come to a
theater and stare at the ceiling up there. What did you! come here for??

4. People who ask, "Can I ask you a question?" Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya buddy?

3. When something is "New & Improved"... Which is it? If it's new, there has never been anything before it
before. If it's an improvement then there must have been something before it!

2. When a cop pulls you over and then asks if you know how fast you were going. "You should know, asshole. You're the one that pulled me over!"

And the number one thing that really bugs me....

1. Chain letters! I won't get bad luck, lose my friends, lose my mailing lists, hear any music or see a
cool pop up screen if I don't forward this. Bill Gates is NOT going to send me money, Victoria
Secret doesn't know anything about a gift certificate they're supposed to send me and Ford will not give me a 50% percent discount even if I HAVE forwarded my e-mail to more than 50 people. I will NEVER receive gift
certificates,coupons or freebies from Coca Cola, Cracker Barrel, or Old Navy if I send this to 10 people who
don't know who the hell I am anyway. I will NEVER see a pop up window if I forward this... NEVER!!!! My phone will not MYSTERIOUSLY ring after I forward this. There is NO SUCH THING as an E-mail tracker, and I am not STUPID enough to think that someone will send me $100 for forwarding this to 10 or more people.
There is no kid with cancer through the Make a Wish program in England collecting anything! ing. He did when
he was 7 yrs old. He is now cancer free and 35 years old and DOESN'T WANT ANYMORE POSTCARDS, CALLING CARDS OR GET WELL CARDS!
The government does not have a bill in congress called 901B (or whatever they named it this
week) that if passed will enable them to charge us 5 cents for every sent e-mail. There will be NO cool
dancing, singing, waving, colorful flower, character, or program I will receive immediately after I forward
this. People are just trying to talk me into doing it to make me look like a fool. The American Red Cross
will! l not donate 50 cents to a certain individual dying of some never heard of before disease for every e-mail
address I send this to. The American Red Cross RECEIVES donations, they don't donate! And finally, I WILL NOT let others guilt me into sending things on to my friends for fear they will think I am not their friend... or by telling me I have no conscience or don't believe in JESUS CHRIST. If God wants to send me a message, I
believe the bushes in my yard will burn before he picks up a PC to pass it along... but even if it does come by
e-mail, HE will send me one at which point I'm SURE I will know it will be from HIM. AND if He does, I'm sure
He will care enough to delete all those annoying &! nbsp;> forwarded's in it!"

Now, repeat this 4 times to yourself until you've memorized it and then send it along to at least 5 of
your friends before the next full moon or you will be constipated for the next 3 months.

New one I thought of on the way to work this morning:

People who get in a crowded parking garage elevator knowing everyone is going to the freaking lobby but still feel the need to push you out of the way to see if that button has been pushed. For some reason this really pissed me off this morning, guess it is one of those days.

A verbal rant is very therapeutic
