Work has been grinding my gears lately, fortunately I won't be here much longer. =D

-People at work who, when writing inter-office emails, use indecipherable cell phone text speak and grammar.
-The same people using comic sans for official documents.
-The "annoying quote guy" at work who has all these motivational posters in his office. Quotes printed out on copy paper taped to his walls (you can't see the bare wall at all). Every time he talks with you he has to use some random irrelevant feel-good quote.
-The company owner who sends out mass emails to everybody here with lolcats and lol youtube videos and stupid ass blog posts from places like "this is why you're fat" and "stuff white ppl like". This same guy criticized everybody else in the office for using the internet for non-work related reasons during lunch break and had social networking, youtube and blogs blocked.
-The redneck dude who yells "git er done!" and "not EEEEven!" and laughs like woody wood pecker a hundred times a day.
-The annoying quote guy again. In his mid 50s, has been perpetually single for like 10 years acts like a door mat to any of the women working here. He buys lunch for two girls who are my age (mid 20s) because they're hot. Or tries to give me dating/relationship advice, or comments on my girlfriends pictures I have on my desk in a very creepy way.
-Mr. Git Er Done asking why I don't date a white girl. Sorry dude I rarely dig corny white girls, they're often plain and boring especially in the south.
-The guy who follows his party politics as fanatically as some sports nerds follow specific teams. Anytime I see this dude in a hallway I duck into the nearest cube.

man i could go on, lol. I telling stories of BS work stuff it's kind of therapeutic in a way because they always crack me up.


I feel your pain.

I have one of those annoying quote guys here...several of them actually.

-The guy with the yellow corvette. ALWAYS talking about his god damned corvette, every single time he walks by. I mean, wtf dude?
-The pack of harley riders, who ALL stand at the window looking at the weather and discussing the weather and discussing whether or not to ride is said weather. This goes on for at least 10 minutes. GO BACK TO WORK
-The last reply guy. No matter what you email him, he always has to have the last reply. Even if it's just "lol". God damn, I want to punch him in the face.
-The people who talk about sports, and only sports, every single time you hear them open their fat mouths. Get a life.
-The walking guy. I see him walk by twice every 5 minutes. Do you even fucking sit down and work at all? Jesus christ.
-The snack guy. Has a tub of cheeseballs, a tub of pretzels, candy, cookies, at least 24 cans of soda at all times. Constantly eating and/or drinking. Empty cans all around his space, dirty as fuck. Isn't even that fat.
-The oooolldd office guy that I need to walk around, but can't, because he is so fucking slow and walks in the middle.
-The idiots that stop and talk to me every time they pass by. Get back to work and let me work in peace, thank you.
-The janitorial staff, thank you for putting up with all of these fat mouthbreathers who can't clean up after themselves. You have the patience of saints.
We learn nothing from history except that we learn nothing from history.

@ yellow vette dude: The only corvette worth bragging about is a c3 model pre 1970 wit da chrome! Or any c2 or c1 model.

I feel your pain man, but it's always good to tell these stories.

More!

-One of the sales men who makes more money than 3/4 of anybody in the building walking out into the service/install bay to get some equipment. The bay has no air conditioning in the middle of the damn summer. Walks up to my install techs during their break and goes "man, it's hot in here! Ugh! I'm going back inside can one of you bring my stuff in for me?" dude come on.

Laugh tracks.

Nothing bothers me more then Laugh Tracks.

It makes it pretty much completely impossible to watch TV because it just pisses me off. I'll laugh when I want too, thanks, you don't need to tell me when too.

People who start fights over the internet/phone because they know they can't take you on in a real fight.

YT heroes who only post videos for the money (aka WOR, ect.), or when they post a series of interesting video's only to stop halfway through/when the next game in the installment comes out.

Well, as a windmill, it's usually when people want to refine their grain. It hurts a bit, but I get to hang out with a donkey for a while, it's pretty cool.
I saw the angel within the marble, and I carved until it was free.

When on teamliquid:

- Player a starts a thread about how race x is overpowered against race y
- Player b then suggests buffing [unit 1] of race y to fix the imbalance
- Player c (who plays race x): "but [unit 1] is already very strong against race x"

This is just... this really makes me rage.

Star Wars.

Every single day of my life I have to be exposed to that talentless hackjob that ripped every single worthwhile thing from a far superior book series, Dune.

I seriously can't go one day without having to hear about it. It's f'ing bogus.

The mystery of life is not a problem to solve, but a reality to experience. **Hang in there STX fans!! Kal Hwaiting!**
