As the years 'fly' by, what are some of the small things that just 'get under your skin'... on your 'very last nerve'?
ie.. when you start to load the dishwasher only to discover after you start throwing in dirty dishers, it wasn't unloaded from the previous washing? 3 or 4 items you know, were in the last washing cycle are sitting on the counter dirty, and no one unloaded it?
and those dagnabit toilet paper rolls that come squished.. and go thump thump as you unroll them?
and girls... toilet seat up or down?

Well since I now live alone very little annoys me. The one thing that gets me these days is when ya use a debit card at the gas pump and don't use your PIN number and they charge your account $75 to cover a $30 purchase. Your checking account is screwed until the charge clears the bank.
That should be illegal.... I never authorized the charges.

GM ltd..
and i do replace that roll  . you can buy the package of toilet paper in perfect shape on the display at the gro store, get it home and all the rolls are smashed almost beyond recognition. As you replenish the holder, you can never get it right.. dats where the thump thump sounds come as it's unrolled.
those kids who's music is so loud that you think your chest will explode as you sit at a traffic light. they like their music so much, they want you to like it too!!

Copter guy, a friend told me never select debit. Put it as credit and the hold won't happen. Where I buy fuel it doesn't happen. I have seen warnings posted at some pumps. Try it and see if it works.

yep but if ya put in $75 they charge your account $150 til it clears... does this sound legal?
Our banks love it cause that is where they make their fortunes, your mistakes.
Cash back doesn't bother me, especially if you get charged to do it elsewhere. Sometimes it is convenient.
I went to a friends bank to cash a check he gave me. the bank wanted 10% to cash his check..... WTF? It's his bank and his check, now I got to pay to get real money for it? That should be illegal but that is where they make millions in cashing illegal immigrants checks. I think I read that Bank of America made $25 million doing that and wiring money out of the country.
That is annoying.

Bank of America should be renamed. i agree with the charge for the checks though. sometimes when i finish a job and slightly worried about the check clearing, its nice to have cash in hand. some of the banks here, want your DBA, DL, and couple other forms of ID. when i present a check with my name, and they added the word Contractor on the end.. i just deposit it in my bank. not worth the hassle to get a manager over.. my name is here, here is my DL, several forms of ID, and obviously this check is for me huh? Now you want me to pay you for cashing a check against one of your account holders who pays you to have an account here? Sometimes just for the hell of it, i get 2 or 3 tellers involved, along with the head cashier, couple managers along with them, asking why, and asking for your supervisor... in the end, explain that the little rule they had of charging me to cash the check, cost more in salaries i just wasted for them that to have cashed my check.. i say, i'll just deposit it in my bank and walk out. Thanking them for their time, of course!!

It annoys me that you cannot find one single place in this public world that does not have nudity, religion or repulsive language shoved in your face. As if a person does not have the right to choose for themselves what they want to see or hear.
And those radios, in my apartment building, since the illigal immigrants have showed up in our little town, that music comes right into your apartment making the walls throb for as long as they are out here. Sometimes 2:00am for a half hour or so.

Two things come to mind that seem to annoy me:
1. Packaging !! It seems you need a set of vice grips and a chainsaw to open a pack of batteries or a CD...........
2. Grocery shopping for single people !! Obviously, just speaking for myself, but I regularly waste a lot of food because you can't buy it in a size/quantity for a single person.

I know what ya mean there Knight, I had a company that was going out of business that agreed to pay me $1500 of the $4500 they owed me and I took it to the bank and they made me jump through so many hoops, called the owner, etc. I got my money though in $20 bills too.... lol they were so pissed.
Tried giving me a bunch of $100 bills, nope I wouldn't take 'em. Had to go to the vault for it.... hehe
Agent I agree grovery shpping can be a hassle for one person. I end up eating a lot of frozen stuff instead. I throw out lots of fresh stuff gone bad. I have learned to buy bread and freeze one loaf and keep the other in the fridge so it doesn't go bad before I eat it all. The frozen is for a backup when it HAS gone bad and I don't know it until I take a bite.... lol

Agree Agent, although they say 1/2 the households in America have one person, you could never tell it by the supermarkets.
