I haven’t blogged for a few days, and that has left me agitated. Therefore, I thought I would share with you some of the things that annoy the crap out of me. In no particular order:
Billy Mays yelling at me on TV during every commercial break. Why is he allowed to yell? Do people actually buy stuff from him?
Pressing “1″ for English, be it in Canada or the USA.
The fact that my hosting has come due, and I can’t pay it. PayPal button is to your right. **Ahem.**
Margaritas having more than 500 calories. A curse! How else can one prevent scurvy in these troubled times?
The time it takes Twitter to refresh. Too many scripts running the the background.
People who don’t have basic spellcheck. Tabernac, people, why don’t you just download Firefox and let it do all the hard stuff that you never mastered in highschool? (ironically, FF just told me that “spellcheck” “tabernac” and “highschool” are not words. Well, fuck you then.)
That different rules apply to offers and contests for Quebec, Alaska and Hawaii. WTF?
That I am a better American than many Americans, yet I’m not actually an American! And in all fairness, that I am a shitty Canadian, and that there are many good Canadians who just happen to be Americans. Can’t we just swap out under NAFTA? No paperwork required? I’ll stay down here, and Tim Robbins can give up 60% of his Hollywood income in Canadian taxes. Sounds fair to me…
The CBC.
The BBC.
Bill Maher.
Chicken poop. I have reached my level of tolerance for chicken poop. However, I now think I am mastering bulimia because of it… look forward to a thinner me!
Toronto. All of it. Except Kathy.
Doing donuts in the parking lot; or, I have a lot to learn about farming
I, too, haven’t posted in a few days. Why, because as I start to rant and rave about one issue another even more stupid stupidity comes along to distract me. I really need to not read as much, turn off the damn TV and then maybe I can consentrate on something worth commenting on… but that comes with obviouse flaws, dosen’t it.
Anyway, I enjoy your blog, so pay up. I’d love to contribute, but I’ve alread got one female I’m giving all my money to, and she just wouldn’t understand. lol

Gin and Tonic has fewer calories, plus the quinine to help avoid malaria. The lime wards off scurvy. G&T – the original health drink!
And Toronto’s about to get even shittier. Bill Maher visits in November.
You’re missing all the fun back here, RightGirl. A bunch more handguns went on a shooting spree the other day and a girl got raped in the middle of the street in broad daylight and none of the good little socialists in this city did anything about it.
And soon it’s going to start getting cold and snowy again.
But at least we have sushi.
I agree with you about Bill Maher–among other things–but especially Bill Maher. His smug little face is annoying me more than usual, lately.
I agree with you about spellcheck and tabernac (Yes, I know that’s not how you spell it in French). I agree with firefox about high school.
For those running Win Explorer, download google taskbar. It has spellchecker(isn’t this a word}, search words highlighter, auto-fill of creditcard etc info data when buying stuff(with separate password protect of course), etc etc. NICE!
Chipped in again to help with you blog bandwidth costs RightGirl. I don’t consider it a donation or tip. I consider it payment for your work, even if you’re having fun doing it.
