For those who require further explanation, "whose" would have been appropriate.

Those who say "those ones" somewhat grinds my gears. Just say "those".

It made me laugh. I'm curious as to whether he punished himself for the poor punctuation too. On the subject of spelling - lose/loose is my pet peeve.

People who actually think Fox News is "fair and balanced", but I'm not just harping on Fox News, pretty much any channel is biased. Just stop watching TV for "news".
Isn't it ironic and selfish to say that God made man in his image, when God was made in man's image?

Here's a new one just now:

The manager that makes correction markings on your CAD drawing set, gets a new set back all corrected (by me, yes), then makes NEW markings that he could have easily made with the previous set... really? Sigh, another day of CADmonkeying.

Women who drive pink jeeps in small, one way streets, who decide to stop in the middle of nowhere, just because they ****** can. I have no problem with women who think they can drive while they actually can't even notice what just happened to that old man crossing the street("what old man?" -_-). I don't blame them because it's their husbands duty to keep them in check and not use the freaking car, and if they can't even do that - then get a freaking dog instead! My problem is with the women who know they can't drive yet still manage to help a few old men cross the street every week(cross to the other side, that is). God, just restrain these people!

What grinds my gears? Live Threads. I mean, i don't even know why the fuck i'm reading it every god damn time. Bunch of people whining about balance, when their favorite player loses the hell breaks loose and all that shit. And not to mention it's completely like "no-law zone" of TL. >_<

glad Broodwar section isn't like this. All the time, at least..

Rant over, peace.

ps. mass respect for those who keeps actually live reporting the games. Hell of a job..

That's a sign of you making too many mistakes in the first place, and/or sloppyness for not noticing them yourself! (Been there also, typicaly after a few nights of overtime and a deadline approaching fast.)

What's worse is when you hand your work to your customer for external review, and he says it's not detailed enough, even tho it's more detailed than what the contract says he wanted... And then refuses to pay for all the extra work he expects you to do.



... Also working on a CAD file located on a server halfway across the country resulting in several "Delayed server write failure" messages and high probability of corrupted cad file...

There is a wider part of the lane at an intersection so people who are waiting to go straight don't block those who want to turn right at the light. Sadly it seems most people either don't give a shit about wasting others time or don't understand the concept of this wider lane specifically designed so as to save people time so they position their car in the middle of this wider lane, leaving more than 2 feet to their left and thereby blocking those behind them who could have been turning and getting on with their business.

I have to deal with this every single time I leave my apartment and have yet to see someone position their car so as to not block others. This drives me totally insane sometimes, I just can't understand how most people can be so selfish as to not even remotely consider the other people who are sharing the road with them. If I take the average 3 minutes extra I generally have to wait every day and multiply that by the ~20 days a month this happens and then multiply that by the amount of months I have lived here (4) that means that selfish assholes have wasted (wasted meaning I am unnecessarily sitting at the light when I would have normally been going about my business) about 4 hours of my life that I will never get back.

This may seem ridiculous to some but I understand that life is very short and wasted time is just that, time that I will never get back and is time I could have spent doing something productive or at the least something that I choose.

And before some smart ass tells me I wasted time writing this post the point is that I chose to waste this time and in my view it is not even wasted as maybe just maybe this will wake someone up and they will then not waste some other persons time.

Alright I'm not sure how to explain this exactly, and I probably don't have the most right to say this because I'm from a Korean family, not a Japanese one, but...

when it comes to saying Japanese words in English, people seem to always stress the middle syllables to make the word flow in speaking english, but it just sounds weird when I hear it.

ex. the word yukata. Pronounced yu-ka-ta right? I always hear yu-KAH-ta

the name Tadashi. it's ta-da-shi, but most will say ta-DAH-shi.

now this is not necessarily wrong, but I hate hearing just the middle syllables stressed, making the word "swing", as I would describe it.
