You just made my no shoot list. From now on, I'm just going to make the shutter noise with my mouth when you pass by in Moab.

Oh, I can't wait for picture updates from Moab. Great action shots from all of you and then a few random pics of mini vans in downtown moab with captions of Alan was a little off line, or here's Alan crawling the drive thru at McD's. :clap::rockon:

Did I say "framers"? I meant "FARMers"... dirty littly growin' stuff jerks...

(no offense to your dad, Virgil... I just really hate it when Mike make the shutter sound with his mouth and goes "oh yeah! work it! work it!". Kinda creeps me out.)

I hate mouse over ads that enlarge to fill your screen or start auto playing some ridiculous movie or sound


azcentral.com has an annoying one on their top of their front page right now
#47
I won't use azcentral for that reason.
I hate sound pop ups with a passion

Defeats the point of getting away
And you'll invariably get into a music war with campers down the way trying to drown yours out with theirs, etc



On our 1st night at Furnace Creek in Death Valley, a couple who thought they were Johnny Cash and June Carter were camped nearby. I'm not sure how many renditions of 'Country Roads' they performed for the rest of the campers. I was so relieved when they broke camp the next morning.

Can I post here every time I have to Excel up an elaborate price quote that I know we can't compete bidwise with anyway?
I hate price quoting

Applications that think they need the keyboard/mouse focus. I just canceled a 200Mb download while I was typing an email. Started download, switched focus to email and was typing, download finished and thought it deserved focus on it's window instead of email, whatever I was typing clicked the cancel button, had to restart download. AHHHH!

Crap like this at work:

I have scheduled a Life Plan day for Wednesday, May 27. Prior to our meeting please accomplish the below four tasks:

1. Objectives Summary: Document a brief summary of what you hope to accomplish from our time together.
2. The Power of Full Engagement: Read this book in its entirety and document how it applies to your life.
3. Life Story: Document your life story in 5 year increments (age 1-5, 6-10, etc). Use bullet points or a narrative approach which captures your entire life with some detail. Include events that you would interpret as good or bad in your story.
4. Turning Points: Review your life story, then identify and document up to 10 events that were so significant that your life took on new meaning and direction.

Forward your documents to me at least 72 hours prior to our meeting.

Alan, I hope your life planning day is uplifting and emotionally worth while for you. :rockon::clap::eyeroll:

In all seriousness. I take back everything I said. Today really was life changing. Truth. I'll share when I'm ready.

Coworkers that don't bathe or wash their clothes. I complained to management once and it got better, but it's happening again. I really don't want to smell that again! Stay away from me or simpler yet, bathe!!!
#58
Oh, since I'm on the topic of personal hygiene. Do it at home!

My manager sits in his office and shaves with his electric shaver. One of my coworkers has long hair and will pull out the brush and brush his hair for 10-15 minutes. I think I'm going to start cutting my toenails at my desk!

Companies that think advertising means leaving trash in my yard. 1. The fliers on the door are annoying. 2. What really gets me is the companies that fill up a baggie with rocks, staple an advertisement to it, and throw it on my driveway.

THAT'S LITTERING, NOT ADVERTISING!!!

Years ago I walked past this gal's cube and she was in there cutting her frigging toe nails. No kidding, I couldn't believe it.
