I did a commercial when all the gluten stuff first started. It was for a store that sold sweet, cakes, candies, etc. I said glutton free. lol the sales guy put on a pouty face with one like the world was ending.

We recently bought a “Nest” doorbell which has a camera and makes mini movies whenever someone comes to the door or one of us does chores and walks in front of it.

I am annoyed that I have discovered that although you can think you look pretty spiffy in the mirror when looking face forward, it doesn’t prevent you from looking pretty stupid from the back and side!

I hate to read on a can of Henry Weinhard's beer a note that it's made by Blitz-Weinhard Brewing Co., Milwaukee WI/Irwindale CA.

This was originally an Oregon beer. Why the pretense that they have a separate brewery from MillerCoors Corp.?

It would be much more honest if it read "Brewed to the original recipe by MillerCoors".

When traveling by air, when the gate for your connecting flight is always as far away as possible from the gate of the arriving flight.

Related, how airlines will micro-manage the schedule of individual flights to give a perception of "on-time" performance. I was on a flight last week that was scheduled by all timetables and on my tickets and boarding pass to depart at 11:53 am, but did not actually become airborne until 12:46 pm, nearly an hour late. But if you look back at the schedule, that flight now shows a scheduled departure time of 12:08pm and "gate departure" of 12:36pm, thereby making it seem like an on-time departure (I've learned over the years that any delay of 30 minutes or less is actually considered "on-time"). I'll have to use that excuse next time I'm 30 minutes or less late for an appointment/meeting.

The fact that any and all Dr.s, staff and employees think that it’s perfectly fine to waste my time and reschedule my appointments at a moment’s notice but if I have something come up unexpectedly they can charge me anywhere from $25-50 for it...

Double standards (rampant everywhere)!

The fact that my memory is so bad - “how bad is it?” - that the merchant (Amazon) has to remind me I already I already own that blu ray. Which can get tricky when I buy from 2 Amazons.

At the moment, I'm really annoyed with Bell.

A few months ago, a now former in-law left me with the impression that we could tell our current provider we're thinking of switching to another provider and they'd bend over backwards to extend our 12 month TV/Internet promo deals. (We're in the middle of a 24 month contract.)

While I understand that the above isn't Bell's responsibility, I'm still rather ticked off about the fact that even with reducing our TV package to the most basic level (From the 'Better' to 'Good' TV package.), we'd still be paying an extra $20/month for our second 12 month period~SERIOUSLY BELL?!!? :angry:
