Just Another Reason To Hate Spammers
Number of Comments » 0Every now and again, I check the spam comments that spammy spammers leave on this here site. Gotta say I really hate these “people.” A couple of them recently left comments similar to “Loved your post, I’m going to copy it to my blog.”
What the fuck? You think it’s ok to copy stuff that *I* [...]
Dear Sears
Number of Comments » 2What the frack, guys? The last time I had a problem with an appliance, I gave you a call. The customer service people on the phone were polite and helpful. The service person arrived in a timely fashion, and fixed the problem.
This time, however, you completely fucked up. When I called, the “customer service” representative [...]
Oh Akismet, How I Love You
Comments OffThere were some Russian scum ditty pus balls who had been trying to post spam comments here for a couple of weeks. These posts were all in Russian (and Google kept offering to translate them for me… I naturally declined), and they all something like 100+ lines long. There were a lot (like almost all [...]
Compact Fluorescent Bulbs
Comments OffI hate them.
There. I said it. I hate compact fluorescent light bulbs. They all buzz in my ceiling fixtures, and that’s going to drive me mental. I can’t use them with the dimmer switches, and some previous owner of the building seemed to think nearly every freakin’ room needed a dimmer switch. I even have [...]
If I Had One Wish
Number of Comments » 2… I’d wish for eight consecutive, uninterrupted hours of sleep each and every night.
I don’t usually have problems falling asleep (except for my semi-annual bouts of insomnia in the spring and fall, and they only has for two or three days). It’s the staying alseep I can’t seem to manage. Apparently, I’m an uber-light sleeper. [...]
Pat Robertson Is a Douchenozzle
Comments Off(And I only call him a douchenozzle because cheesy pus rectal cancer odoriferous son of a bitch was a little long for the title.)
I read yesterday that Pat Robertson is saying the recent earthquake in Haiti is simply an exhibition of God’s wrath. That the people of Haiti brought this on themselves.
What. The. Fuck??!?
I’ve come [...]
Dear AT&T
Comments OffUp until a couple of minutes ago, I was pretty happy with your service. However, I just got off the phone with the third customer service representative who has assured me that I won’t be getting any more text solicitations from you. Since the first two customer service representatives were grossly mistaken about that, you [...]
Another Reason I Don’t Fly
Comments OffI read recently that the federal government has told the airline industry that they can’t keep people on planes anymore if the flight has been delayed more than three hours. In the world in which I live, I would need massive amounts of Valium to survive even one hour out on the tarmac waiting for [...]
Dear Realtors
Comments OffYou guys (and gals) aren’t very good at picking up on subtle hints, are you? The fact that I’m not calling you back should give you some sort of clue. I’d like to think it would give you the idea that I might not be interested in talking to you. But I guess not.
Ok, so [...]
Dear Firefox
Number of Comments » 2Thank you for updating yourself. Thank you, also, for totally screwing up how stuff on new tabs is displayed. And by “stuff,” I mean the “absolutely nothing” that I expect. Yes, yes. I read your blog. And read how you think that while everyone might want to see something different in the new tab they [...]
