Yes that did sound rude did it not.


I didn't thought that was rude. In fact, I personally took it as a compliment.

-Little brothers who borrow Game systems to play at grandma's house then leave it there and let a dog that lives there DESTORY a $60 controller.
-People who think they know how I am training a dog wrong and telling me how to do it in my own house.
-People that drive way too close behind you.
-People who think its ok to come up and touch you without warning (like a hug or a pat on the head or hanging on you neck).
-Being made to take someone somewhere or go to the store for someone in the middle of a tv show You are watching.
-People who leave a mess in the bathroom.

When people are a fake nice to me. It's hard to trust people like that. One day they'll give you a big old hug, and the next day you'll find that your wallet is missing.

The problem is that they are everywhere. I even recognize one of them because he's around in my area. Maybe Europe is different from here.

Yeah and the problem is that I forgot my wallet at home everytime they asked, despite of all. :P

What are they gonna do?

Send the cops after you for never carrying any cash with yourself?

Well, maybe they'll get the message.

I had better point out that I have never ever given any money to any of them. I'd rather throw my money into the rubbish bin than give it to them.

I just find their presence really annoying. It's a bit like having cockroaches around.

Getting sacked for using ad-blockers, I can honestly see a very dark future incoming in modern internet life if they manage to even do THIS type of stuff.

I actually don't mind non-intrusive ads. What ever happened to simple banner ads at the top or side of the screen? Now advertisers are forcing ads down your throat any way they can. The hijack method seems to be popular these days. The website won't load until the video ad has played, or the DVD won't go to the menu screen until the production company logo animation – or worse, the trailers – have played. The message is, "You're gonna sit there and watch this f@#king crap or we're not gonna give you what you came here for." This is why people are willing to simply pay for content to make the ads go away. Unfortunately, some services, like Hulu Plus, give you ads even if you pay for their stuff.

We're heading closer and closer to this, and it terrifies me:

Telemarkerters who ring you when you're on the do not call register. :evil:
I have fixed them by having a answering machine and when they ring all they get is a message if I remember and don't pick the phone up. :D
