Don't You Hate It When . . . .

Don't You Hate It When . . .
Don't You Hate It When . . .
What really annoys you?

Perhaps it's when you go to fill up with fuel but are running late - so leave it to the next day only to find the price has jumped to some new world parity high?


Perhaps it's as simple as someone who leaves a single sheet on the toilet roll or a 1/4 inch of milk in the bottle.

Without giving it too much thought - I've compiled ten of the most common 'hates' I've endured recently.

10. You wake up before your alarm goes off.

9. You have to take the day off work because the best a Telstra operator can do is tell you that a service representative will be at your place between 9 and 3.

8. Your 7-year-old knows more about the applications on your PC than you do.

7. You actually believe all the answers will be revealed in the season finale of any TV series.

6. You go to replace one of something only to find that it’s been discontinued.

5. You just about complete that thesis on the universe and the history of mankind only to
have your computer freeze up.

4. You come up with the perfect comeback to some loadmouth – 20 minutes too late.

3. Something you buy always appears in a catalogue the next week on special.

2. Kids today earnestly believe they came up with the word cool and “yeah whatever” is the response to most everything else.


1. People who have bottles of water surgically attached to their hand – to ensure they don’t dehydrate while walking to the photocopier.

Would love to hear yours.

people that buy bottles and bottles of bottled water - can't stand it. It's free out of the tap!

Read on the weekend where some bottled waters are costing upwards of $40!

Apparently gods nectar - which comes free from skies above is in the greatest demand - but needs to be bottled and shipped directly to resturants in order to attract a premium.

. . . or you could just catch it in a bucket and print off your label.

Perrier really did start something way back when huh!

Cheers

It's no coincidence that Evian spelt backwards is naive!

Hmm, I get so grumpy when I walk past a piece of furniture and part of my clothes gets caught so I’m ping-ponged to another corner of the room.

That’s so annoying...plus I often look stupid...

Hehehe Trace, you are such a dear funny thing!

MNG, like the cat, I detest getting my head stuck in vases. Happens often when I use them for wine glasses.

Stupid perhaps. Funny definitely.

You crack me up.

Have you and Tracy ever thought of doing a routine?

You're both part of the reason I keep coming back.

When folks don't flush the toilet! Especially after a disgusting 10 foot long dump! Charming!

I also get grumpy when I turn a tap on too strongly and get soaked...again, I think I look stupid when this happens, especially at work...
