What (besides politics) irritates you?

My poor kid watched this commercial and asked for the markers. We got them for her. Now she is insisting to us that if we smell the markers we will sneeze and fruit will come out of our noses. She is absolutely resolute that it’s real. “I saw it on the ad, I promise it’s real”

I'm worried about the future generations and commercials. My kids have watched so few commercial in their lifetime due to streaming and DVR, they believe everything too. When I was a kid I grew to loathe commercials because they interrupted what I wanted to watch so much.

How cool would it be to shoot Popcorn out of your nose?

My daughter has spent a cumulative two hours trying to find out over the past day

Wait... all my life people told me don't sniff markers, it destroys your brain cells and will lead to huffing paint etc etc... now they make markers where the whole point is to sniff them...

When I was a kid, they had these crayons that were smelly crayons. But because kids were eating the good smelling ones, they came out with a whole line of...not appetizing chemical smelling crayons.

Dish Soap
Grass
Mud
Detergent
Paint
Fresh Air (smelled horrible)

I thought the same thing for a minute but then I distinctly remember having these all through elementary school

Rolled my ankle on a freaking pine cone in my driveway taking out the trash. I always hate lame injuries.

Called my vet because I wanted to pick up my dog's meds. He's completely out. It's a monthly prescription and he's been on it for a couple of months. So, I call and they're like "we'll have to have a doctor approve this." WTF? Why does a doctor need to approve a reoccurring prescription?

So I'm running a Superb Owl Squares Board for my office again this year, 3rd year running, and I have my own system to track payments and whatnot.

My irritant here is people who haven't paid, but say, bring money in the next day to square up - they'll send me an email and say something to the effect of "Hey, I have your money.". The assumption here is that I'll go to them to get the $$.

No asshole, you're the one who owes, you know where I sit, bring me your fucking money.

So inevitably I will respond every time with "Ok, thanks. Just bring it to me when you have a free moment.".

Most of the time it's the sales people, too. Cockbags.

I'm taking payments for my new tennis team and I'm getting the same emails. "Hey, I have the dues money."

Okay... fucking Paypal or Venmo it to addresses I listed in the email. I'm not going to send you an request invoice. And I'm certainly not going to mark you down as paid just because you say you have it.

[scrock25]

Fucking bitch still couldn't bring it to me

She had one of the fucking office interns bring it up.... Jesus fucking Christ

[ExistenceNow]

Give her the shittiest squares.

[scrock25]

She chose them herself.

[ExistenceNow]

Oh you get to pick your squares?

I thought it was a drawing/randomly assigned.


Disregard.

[scrock25]

You pick your own squares... the numbers are randomly drawn after the board is full.

First come first serve? Do people pay a premium for the better numbers?

[ExistenceNow]

Yea, that's what I meant. Give her shitty numbers.

My bad. I read it wrong. Carry on.

People who say "Superb Owl" irritate me. Sorry, scrocks. You're the worst now.

I didn't even catch what that meant. I thought it was some different type of squares where you pick your own numbers.
