Being one of those people, I defend my habit by pointing out that the online radar allows me to see farther than looking out my window does and often I'm looking for a quick forecast for the next 8-12 hours.

My south facing window, while great, doesn't let me know about the storm coming from the north. Smiley: tongue

*roommates who put their dirty dishes on top of the dishwasher rather then inside Smiley: mad

I do it to see if there are any tornado or winter storm warnings. Smiley: nod

Oh, and when I was getting married, I checked it almost every single day, trying to see if my wedding date was going to get rained on, since we were getting married outside.

People who pull out their phone while I'm in a meeting talking to them or giving a presentation... and pray to their blackberry/Iphone/smartphone god. Really? I mean I can understand if you are waiting for an important e-mail or call but then tell me that before I start.

People that are ALWAYS late for meetings but never apologize, like the entire world is waiting for them to get some place so it can start spinning again.

Red lives in England where the weather reports just have a quick dampness and cloudiness rating. He doesn't understand how people in regions where the weather actually affects anything have to get by.

Quadruple the annoyance if it's the person who requested the meeting.

I spend time online checking the swell reports, wind directions, and long range predictions especially relating to the Southern Ocean below Australia. I care not for rain predictions. I can see if its raining by looking out of the window...

*Content.

People in shops or offices who answer the phone while I'm talking to them. I was here first motherfucker. You don't start talking to someone in the queue behind me, so don't answer the phone. If its important they will phone back.

Fat chicks who wear pants that allow their stomachs and half of their **** to flap about in the breeze.

Litter. Especially if it has Ronald cnuting McDonalds/Colonel Sanders face on it. Or those cans of Bourbon and coke RTD's that people leave all over the place. Or people who throw butts out of the window while driving.

Malls.

Dogs that eat children, and the type of lowlives that feel the need to keep them. And the t-shirts they wear with pictures of snarly, drooling mutts all over them.

Almost everything on television.

People who's first words upon meeting me ask what I 'do'.

Blaggers. (people who take but never give)

Thermal cups. They never last for more than a couple of weeks.

People who buy water in plastic bottles.

Parents who allow their kids to run around my house with two streaks of snot dripping out of their nose.

Etc Etc Etc.

What pisses me off....

People who go on about charity but never donate time, money, or any resources to their community.

Anyone who doesn't pick up after themselves.

People who have dogs but don't walk them.

Anyone who abuses animals.

Snakes (both literal and figurative).

Obese people.

Anyone who smokes inside.

What is that about? Who actually uses Capslock, anyway? And why is it when I get an email from a far flung great aunt who never uses the internet, the messages are always in all caps? Is it an old people thing?

I always rebind capslock to be control. The placement really makes much more sense then in the corner. Of course it does ***** you over when you use a computer that's not rebound.

Hah! I had to check two keyboards just now. Sun Keyboards (some of them anyway) come with the control and capslock keys swapped by default. It's what I'm most familiar with and it is a vast improvement. Putting the control key (which you'll often want to hold down whilst pressing other keys) in a more easily accessed spot while putting the capslock key (which you never need to hold down for obvious reasons) father down is a smart idea. I'm honestly not sure why all keyboards aren't that way...

It does ***** me up a bit when I have to type on a "standard" keyboard though. Oh. And the freaking backtick/tilde key is in the opposite corner. That *really* screws with me. Actually, there's a whole host of keys in the "wrong" spot on standard keyboards. Harrumph!

Indecisive drivers. Just make a blasted decision to go left or right and get on with it! Smiley: mad

People who stop at mini roundabouts when there is no traffic around for 50 miles except me ... behind them.

People who show for training courses, who have been briefed with pre-requisites and do not bother to do them so waste the trainers time as they devote time to them.

People who do not know what they are doing, and will not admit it.

It has always annoyed me when people put their blinker/Turn signal on as they are entering a roundabout/circle... as if you have a choice what direction you are going to go... Its a fucking circle...

-People that can't make or accept an apology gracefully.

-People who routinely request X days of vacation and then suddenly feel 'sick' or whoops, came in too late and are tired. Plan your shit, asshole. You're fucking over all the other people that depended on you to be back at work.

Corollary: People who are routinely sick, or "sick", on Monday.

And preach it about the apologies, holy hell.

People who yell at you when you cross the street when you have the right of way and/or there is a walk light. That happened routinely in Boston but not where I am at now.
