Quick Rant

I was looking on digg.com a bit ago at some of the articles and comments regarding the recent decision by those arrogant judges in California and I just need to rant for a second before I head to bed.

stupid politicians

There needs to be some reform, the people need to cry out to the politicians: STOP FREAKING CALLING ME! It’s driving me nuts. I’m getting calls all the time for all the candidates. Computers calling me with speeches. People calling me with surveys. Computers calling me with surveys.

We’re on no-call lists, why is it the politicians can get around that? It’s not right. We signed up because we want to be left alone not because we want to be contacted by crazy politicians fifteen times a day.

Inconsiderate Parker

I’ve talked about bad parkers before, but I think I’m due for another rant… this time with pictures!

I am just getting so sick and tired of people who think they are “da bomb” and that everyone else must bow to their every whim and desire. So I’ve started photographing all of them, for revenge. MuAHAHAHA.

Of course, the biggest parking morons think that they have these just lyke omg totally awesome vehicles and they don’t want them scratched up, so they take up two or more spots to try and keep anyone from parking next to them.

Example One:

Clown Cars Clown Cars Clown Cars

These jokers were sighted at the Perryville, MO McDonald’s which is joined to a gas station/truck stop. They thought that their ugly truck and SUV rawked and so collectively they took up most of this side of the lot.

I still die laughing when I see these photos because those have to be some of the worst paint jobs I’ve ever seen. Not to mention that they couldn’t be put on worse vehicles! Continue reading ‘Inconsiderate Parker’

Nickelodeon and Nick Jr are getting on my nerves…

Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. are soooooo getting on my nerves. I get all sorts of email from them and I decided I was tired of it not to mention I’m eventually porting everything over to my new/better email address. Yes, I did originally sign up for the emails, but sheesh, I have put in an unsubscribe request seven times. Seven! (Update, make that ten.) I know this because their emails say at the bottom to hit reply and put “unsubscribe” in the subject line. I’ve done this seven times because each time, the strange email address which is composed of some letters and numbers followed by my email address at some Nickelodeon domain has been saved to my address book each time as my address book is set to save every outgoing email address to a special book.

Someone want to tell me why they’re ignoring my requests?

Get it through your thick skull, Nickelodeon, I don’t want your millions of emails anymore!! Nor the emails of your partners!

This last email does say you can reply to unsubscribe or contact MTV Networks at 1515 Broadway; 40th Floor; New York, New York 10036… but no email address. What the heck!?

Okay… I guess I’ll be going into my SBCglobal box on the server and marking all of these as spam now so that Yahoo will send them to the bulk mail folder and I won’t even have to download the emails anymore… I also guess I’ll make sure I never sign up with them for anything in the future.

Die, Nickelodeon, die!!

Rude People Suck

So I like to sometimes sit back and play a game of Gin or Dominoes or something while E is [supposed to be] taking a nap, etc.

The thing I don’t understand, though, is what the heck is wrong with people. For instance, I just played this chick, usmc198…something, doesn’t matter. Anyway, when the game was over, she typed all in caps: “LEARN TO SPEED IT UP SLOW ASS” and I was like, what the heck!?

When I am playing people, especially people who I don’t KNOW and have with me on IM, too, I do my best to make sure I take my turn in a timely manner. As soon as I hear that noise that lets me know it’s my turn, I take my turn. If I have to go away for a second to grab a soda or see to something, the phone rings, whatever, I let the person know.

But apparently, this chick, and several others, can’t be bothered to wait five seconds between turns. I mean, my point is, I am not slow, lol. They expect it to be their turn immediately after taking their last turn. Right?

Just makes me wonder what makes people not only so impatient these days, but so rude. That chick I quoted was tame, when considering some others. But I guess I should not be surprised she was rude, her name on her profile is literally “Ms. Thang.” Not to mention I wiped the floor with her. :P

So, the moral of today’s story is: don’t be a jerk. :)

Aggravation by Postcards

So this aggravates me to no end, and it’s not the first time, either. You know those reply postcards you may get for various things… a magazine subscription, warranty registration, etc. In my case, this past week, it was a reply card for a free book from an organization I support.

I filled out my side of the card, put a stamp on (non-profit, so no postage paid) and dropped it in the mail. The next day, the card returned to me delivered. Apparently, no one can be bothered to look at the side of the postcard that contains the information on where it should be delivered.

In previous times when this has happened, I’ve always had to put it in an envelope, address it, put another stamp on it, and send it in. Really makes you wonder if they are doing this on purpose. You know, because then I pay 41¢ twice with two stamps on two occassions for the same thing when I should only have to pay postcard postage once. Yup, I over pay the first time because I never have postcard stamps, I’m not even sure how much it is anymore.

Why oh why! And furthermore, why can I never remember that this happens every time until I get the card back?

Anyway, this time, rather than putting it in an envelope, I wrote on one side and highlighted: “DELIVERY ADDRESS!!” and on the other “This is NOT the delivery address!!!!”

Let’s see if they get the clue this time or I get it back tomorrow again. Yes, I had to put another stamp on it.

what the crap!?

Grrrrrrr…

A couple of weeks ago, I emailed a local mortgage/loan company about possible consolidation since they are claiming great rates right now, blah blah blah. Anyway, I sent the guy some information and the next day he responded telling me to call and have certain documents ready. His email is dated July 9th and I have not had time to call or respond. I planned on doing so, but…

I open my email tonight to find something by the subject of “FW: Fw: Fwd: Fw: PLEEEEEEASE REEEEEAD! IT WAS ON GOOD MORNING AMERICA TODAY SHOW” by someone who’s name I didn’t recognize. Took me a second to figure it out but I got a crap forward email from a business address by a loan officer! Someone who’s supposed to be a professional! Do I have to create a throw-away email forwarder for everyone I email??? It’s fake, people! Get with it!!

Better yet? It’s one of those forwards that’s a hoax. One that says you’ll get $124 per person you send the email to, and a downline and some crap like that.

Why does this warrant an entry in the “how to tick me off” category? He sent this to my “professional” email address, one that is completely and utterly spam-free. One that does not get forwards. And now… my address is appended with a thousand others just waiting to be picked up by spam bots. This email literally takes up 17 pages, the actual email not starting until halfway down page 12. Then there’s one page of the actual email body, the remaining is all “confidentiality agreements.”

And not only did he forward it, oh, no, but he wrote this above the forward: What do you have to lose?

My spam-free email address, apparently!!
