Things that bug me.

by admin | Jan 24, 2011 | Uncategorized | 6 comments

One of the things that get up my nose is having to re-boot/program/download (pick the correct technical term) my computer, because blinking Microsoft won’t let me open it. They stick a big warning sign on the screen telling me I can’t open up, because there’s some technical problem. When you click the “Tell me the problem” button, they say there’s no problem but they lie: THEY’RE THE PROBLEM! There’s no way to get rid of the darn thing, so we start all over again. I lose email contacts, I lose favourite games, I lose my STUFF. Dagnab the blighters!

I’m getting really irritated with public figures who misquote other public figures and the false information gets picked up by the media and before you know it, the general public have the wrong end of the stick and everyone’s getting worried and annoyed and… aaarrrrrgggghhhhhhhh!!!!! BLINKIN’ POLITICS!

I’m sick and tired of skinny women moaning on and on and on about – oooh they’ve stacked on the weight over Christmas, and they’ve got to lose at least 5 kgs and they just hate being soooo fat – and all the while they’re running their smarmy eyes up and down my obese (yet lovable) body with condemnation dripping out of their eyeballs. I’m fat, you’re rude; DEAL WITH IT!

I’m extremely irriated by the people who (in their cars) whip out of a side street in front of you or jump lanes, cutting you off, because they’re in such a hurry to get somewhere. Then, as soon as they’ve shoved their way into the traffic, they SLOW DOWN!

Note to spammers: I’m fed up with you pretending to post a friendly message on this blog, when all you’re really trying to do is advertise your own. Or to get me to download filthy pictures. Or you want me to sign up to a weight loss program. GRRR! It’s rude, it’s time-wasting, it’s a pain in the butt. You might as well not bother, because I shall keep hitting the “TRASH IT” button, so don’t waste my time or yours.

And, no, I haven’t heard from the agent yet. sigh.

I know there are enormous problems and tragedies in this world which make these little nuisances pale into insignificance. Nevertheless, they’re a thorn in the flesh, a weariness in the bones and just darn IRRITATING!

Ahhhhh…that feels a lot better. Thanks for listening.

    Awwww, sometimes we’ve just got to let it all out, don’t we. I hate chronic complainers, BUT I also believe that an occasional bout of whining gets it out of our system so we can focus on how God has blessed us.

    emails that won’t go bug me. I tried to send you one about donating cross stitch books [I need to downsize] to a cross stitch group or the Gawler Library. Do you know of any groups? Any help would be appreciated. Phone 85234371 Dawn Andrews.

      The Gawler Baptist church has a craft group. They might be interested. The office phone # is 85232233. There’s also a very large craft group (100s) that meet Tuesdays at Golden Grove Baptist in Wyn Vale.
