• The State of CA: Ok so I been working at Hume lake all summer, and I leave to go shoot a wedding and get pulled over for talking on my cell phone. I don't object even though I was completly ignorant to the fact that law had been implemented. The officer told me no biggy after he wrote the ticket that it would just be $20. I get the friggin ticket in the mail and its $93!!!!!!! I call the court and after being on hold for over an hour they tell me that is the court charges and fees. OMGosh this is what makes people blow crap up!!!!!! I am ready to friggin nuke that courthouse!

• Others Chewing: Others chewing on crackers, apples, carrots...anything, while sitting in a room when only one person is talking. In other words, people that chew while in semi-quiet places for all to hear. Drives me nuts! Hoping they gag a little on that apple slice, that'll teach em!

• Ventura County: Got a speeding ticket for 77 in a 65 about 10 feet beyond the sign saying the speed limit had changed. $200 bucks for not being fast enough with the brake pedal!

• torchr: Ok, I am fed up with websites that offer a place to type, but then don't have any kind of automatic spellchecker. What is with that? I have spend a lot of hours becoming dependant on spellcheck only to not be able to use it here.

• eric turner: I resent him characterizing Texas as a state where you can carry a loaded gun with windows tinted. Oh wait, he said Nevada. Well, it sounded like Texas, so I was offended, even though I am glad I can do all those things here.

• My Boss: I just got back from a week in Tokyo and was not ready to come back to work. When I got into the office, my boss begins to tell me about how busy it was while I was gone. Then she was late for a meeting that wasn't on her calendar and she turned to me and said, "this is what happens when you aren't here." It isn't my fault that she can't manage her own calendar! I think people should know how to use their calendar when they graduate with their Masters degree...

• God: Why make Jr. High boys and Jr. High girls develop at such a different rate. It's rude to make us only interested in Legos when the girls look like they're 25.

• Torchr: For making me feel guily because it's asking me the question "Who did you wrong?" when I didn't wrong nobod! I'm the one being wronged here. Maybe changing the question to "Who wronged you?" would make me feel a little less like the sinner that I am.

• DM FRIGGIN V: OH Man so I go in there and try to be a nice guy cause that the only way you will get there respect. So I pay for my registration which by the way was more money than I made in the past 2 months! Ok yea I don't have a job so what. Then after i pay the lady tells me that my reg is suspended an i am like i just stinkin paid you, why is it suspended?!?!?!?! Oh well you didn't have insurance for a month so we suspended it. So you are going to have to go home, call this number waste 2 hours of you life weaving your way thru the phone tree and then finally talk to someone that I can't even understand and then pay them $14 cause they won't change it back unless I do. Then get a confermation number from them and have to go back to the DMV and wait in line for another 45min so they can unsuspend it and give me my sticker that I already paid for! What in the world do I live in CA for? I am moving to Nevada where I can carry a loaded gun under the seat in my car legally, with all my windows tinted!!!!!!!!!!

• The Admin Office: Why did they have to give out my extention? Don't they realize I would rather talk to the annoying students then the overbearing parents? Why is the world full of people who bother me?

• Got Advertising?: Got Shrimp? Got Sand? Got Snow? Got Math? Got Salvation? Got Creativity? I am seriously going to lose my mind if I see another "Got" ad. It's like these people spend all of two seconds brainstorming just to rip off a milk ad. I am livid.

• Todd: He tried to hold Kara's hand behind my back. It's one thing if it's in front of me.. but what's with this sneaky business?!

• Hume 'n Beans: I've recently converted to Tea. If I buy it at Hume 'n Beans it's about $1.80, but if I walk upstairs into cedar hall I can get the same tea for free. So basically I'm paying $1.80 for the convenience of staying downstairs. If I wasn't so opposed to exercise I'd refuse to pay!

• A Dryer that Burns: Is today Monday? Laundry can give an impression of a harmless accomplishment. Nope. I am the lucky benefactor of a demon possessed dryer. As of today I no longer have a holeless/burnt-free t-shirt. I will be taking donations for my shirt fund. Apparently, a dryer that burns clothing is not a priority to fix.

• UCSD: While I was a student at UCSD I thought parking was expensive. But now that I'm a staff member at UCSD, parking is outrageous and you can't even find a spot unless you get to work 30 minutes early. What kind of people do that? So, in my attempt to stick it to the man, I drive to the bus which takes me to campus and then I have a short walk to my office. It takes about 30 minutes. Why would your place of employment make you pay to park anyway? It's not like I want to go there.

• Dell: They will not come out with a driver that supports my mac for the expensive printer that sits in my office. The piece of junk is just two feet from my desk and I can't use it. That is just stupid and I know that stupid is a bad word but that is just how I feel. Mac does not even make printers. Just make a driver and move on. Stop trying to stop Mac and actually try making something better then mac that I might want to buy... or at least make something that I don't regret buying after the fact.

• Biola Cafe: I enjoy drinking my tea with a splash of cream and splenda. I pay something like 8 bucks to eat at the cafe on my meal plan and when they don't have splenda for me to put in my tea. i become enraged at the fact that I am rather paying eight dollars to be enraged at the absence of a menial task (refilling the splenda) than paying eight dollars to get what i want.

• Safari: When is the Safari on the iPhone going to get a Flash player? "Half the web in your pocket" with no Flash, can't even see the best site out there, torchr.com!

• Charter Cable Company: So I signed up for an internet service in Reno and come to my surprise the cabling around the building is need of serious repair. When I called the company about the damage and told them my internet stopped working because of it, they told me that in order to not be charged for the repiar I needed to sign up for a $15 per month wiring/cable insurance fee. They're CROOKS! Who buys insurance for wiring? Especially since I dont even own the crap. This company sucks. I should have anticipated this when I saw an advertisement of Michael Bolton's new concert sponsored by the stupid cable company.

• Nasty Neighbor: Well it all started when my pregnant wife was trying to take a nap and this nasty neighbor I have started crying about how he had just stepped in a puddle. He was shouting and stomping his foot on the ground trying to squish the water out of his shoe. I politely asked him to refrain from making skuishy noises and the next thing I know he got in his car and drove across my front lawn and over the petunias that my wife had just planted and ran over my mailbox. I think he is on drugs.

• Jay : I came home from a hard days work and Jay had taken my parking place with one of his many cars. That sucked as I had to park down the street and while walking the extra way home I stepped in a hole filled with cold snow water and soaked my foot.

• darin mcwatters: I was invited to come speak at Hume Lake recently, and I was eagerly anticipating a seriously cool time of hanging out with a man I thought was a friend; what does he do? He manages to be leaving within minutes of me driving in and, get this, was not getting back until a couple of hours after I left. I talked with his wife and children and even they thought it sounded suspicious.

• Water: Water got my laminate flooring wet. Now I have to replace 7 square feet of the stuff. Who gave water permission to be so wet?!?

• Snow Valley Ski Resort in Running Springs: I bought a lift ticket, and rented snowboarding gear for my 5 and 7 year old, only to find out later that Snow Valley wanted $120 dollars for a one hour first time snowboarding lesson. They suck. My kids cried for a half hour, when I told them the mean men wouldn't help them learn.

• Burger King: Burger king charges an extra dollar in processing fees when you use a credit or ATM card. That came out to more then 10% of my overall order!!
  By: Joel - 3/8/08
• Wendys: I ordered the new Spicy Baconator, it's even on the receipt and they gave me a REGULAR Baconator, I mean come on!
  By: Todd - 3/8/08
• Costco: The rumor is they'll return anything which is why I got a flat screen TV there. Turns out their policy changed once I finally decided to use it, no returns on TVs. I understand why they wouldn't be able to afford it, but that's the reason I bought from them, peace of mind. So, be warned, coolest thing about Costco is gone...
