Yeah, and basically anything else from Family Guy.
Also, just about everyone on the Internet...
when this one kid i know asks a moderately ignorant question (ignorant in the sense that he knows the answer) and i tell an answer, and he automatically responds with "really?" as if i am lying, i say yes, and then he just says "ok."
gaaaawwwd..this is a daily occurrence.

SO TRUE!

LoL...
DVD cases! They sucked at first because there was a big wall around the DVD so it was a hassle to get out. Then some genius started putting dents in the wall so your fingers could easily take the DVD out of the case. Life worth living! But nooo, that's way too convenient, and somebody else decided "Hey, that's ridiculously awesome, I'm going to put some more walls there so it will still look like a fantastically easy way to achieve DVD-out-of-case-ness, but then the user will discover that the dents are now completely useless!"

Telemarketers calling at dinner time from unknown phone companies...

, call the telephone preference service and have your number removed from call lists

+1 this should be post of the week!
some people should not be allowed to work. the guy who designed the cases like this is one of them. i broke a lot of cases just to relieve my anger about this stupidity.
AH you can stop them
We registered with the government-run Do No Call Register here, where if you provide them with your phone number then it is illegal for telemarketers to call you & they risk big fines.
Good in theory, not so good in practice it seems.
It's wrong to call people at home after business hours for these things imho , track the number ! and report them.

Lol I love the diagram that was amazing.
Argh I hate it when people do that! I have this 'friend' that keeps on bragging about how "awesome" he is, and how everything he owns, he thinks is better than mine/everyone elses. I am getting so sick of it. When I try talking about something like my MacBook, he starts talking about how superior his Vista Laptop is. Also, say for example I get a higher mark than him in a test or something (which I usually do, no offence), he won't acknowledge it- he'd just mention something else that he's mentioned 1 275 743 times to me.
I also hate it when telemarketers call me, normally at the most inconvenient times. No, I do not want to upgrade my service!

thats just for the NAB Cup. good rules that actually work and are fair are put in the Premiershpip Season like Full Back no having to wait for the Ump to wave his flags and the Ruck circle.
what really grinds my gears is when people in my house use my use my toothbrush, use my deodorant and cologne and then keep it, use all the listerine, leave wet towels on the floor, use my thongs and loose them aarrgghhhhhh
RAAAGE!

Yeah, this is my biggest pet peeve too. People who think they are God's gift to life, and want to make sure you know that too. UGHH
Grind Gears:
Unable to find an instrumental that was used in a movie that suppose to be on the motion picture soundtrack.
Solution for grinding gears: Non...you *bleep* up now you have to buy a new gear.

My god, I swear I want to punch people in the face that do this, if you're going to utterly ignore what I say then atleast be polite about it.
People on MR who won't admit when they are wrong
What gets me more than anything is the fact they know they're wrong because they never respond to you after I say my piece back to them after their insults.Or simply continue to spout garbage.
At least when I'm wrong I have the strength of character to admit it, or make an apology if needed if I step out of line( which I don't think I have done as yet ?)
I guess some folks are having a bad week ?.

Wait, that's just the end of the quote....
Erm, waiting to be able to play rugby again while my knee heals from surgery. That's really getting to me really.
