    I can sell them to him and then charge him to work on um. That's brilliant!

    But can he be trusted with money? He's kinda flakey with links. :p

    By anyone who has been around since the tty BBS days, or UseNet days.

    At that time, you had no font control. No graphics. All you had were ascii characters, and even then generally not in bold or italic etc. So, the convention was caps for emphasis, and all for caps yelling.

    Okay, some things that annoy me,

    People that take things/themselves too seriously

    Grown adults on those stupid scooter things (Christ people how old are you?)

    Teenagers in a hired stretch Limo that scream out of them at everyone they pass on the 10 minute journey to whatever rank nightclub they are aiming for.

    Crowded bars where you can't even lift your arm to drink

    Bottled water for sale at a 1,000,000% mark-up

    CD Packaging - some that can actually be opened would be nice

    Online Poker, It's so damn boring, I blew $100 just to make sure I was never tempted to go back.

    People who say, "your mum", reply she died in a car crash last year. That works wonders

    Baggy Jeans - Command the respect of friends everywhere by going out in the rain with your jeans dragging through the puddles. People will be especially impressed if the soaking spreads up as far as the knee.

    Anyone who uses the 'insult' "Get a life" automatically loses whatever argument they are in.

    Sorry, I'm off to calm down now

    some of my pet peeves are:

    - people not saying thank you when you let them go first/hold the door for them
    - people not signaling their turns when driving
    - people pushing elevator down or up button when it's clearly already lit
    - affiliate/ad network sites that collect sensitive info such as social security numbers, bank info, etc while not using SSL

    i have plenty more (i am easily irritated :))

    I annoy myself. I hate when I catch myself saying to one of the kids "wait a minute, just a second". I can´t help it. I say it a hundred times a day and every time I do I want to bash my head in.

    I hate those finger quote things that people do and the owners of the dogs that do their business outside my patio gate really annoy me. I don´t hate the dogs unless my own is in heat and then all those randy, slobbering, whining mutts that are trying to squeeze their sorry selves through the gate are fair game for getting a bucket of cold water on their heads.

    Awww... don't hate yourself for doing those "parent" things (note those are REAL quotes :eek: not finger things). I can remember hearing my mother say things I thought were just dumb, like "watch you don't fall down the stairs!", and then when I became a parent I eventually found myself saying the same dumb things and inventing a few more all by myself :eek:

    My Pet Peeves:

    Men who wear their hats when they eat or at the movies.
    Women who think that they are God's gift to men.
    People who are not as smart as their dogs.
    Dogs in general.
    Drunks
    Drug Store Cowboys
    Wanna-bee country people.
    People who insist that everyone should love each other.
    People who wear their religion on their sleeve.
    People who insist that I should share my money with less fortunates.
    People who blame their poverty on everyone except themselves.
    Heck, that's enough for now.

    Oh I have some...

    People who let their kids run all over restaurants
    When the fitness instructor lies (and two, and one....nope, 10 more!)
    When people forget to turn their turn signal off
    People who think "a lot" is 1 word
    guys in another car that point and stare at you at a stop light - like I'm gonna stop my car and get in theirs to start a meaningful relationship

    Mella, now your true intelligence has surfaced. Name calling is a true sign of character.
