Don't you hate it when.....

I rang a phone number to get my name taken off their posting list. I was told to wait as "Your phone call is very important to
us and we will get to you shortly", within 2 minutes I could hear the phone ring and then placed on a Fax machine and to
leave my number. What!!!!!!!

Well, I was surprisingly wrong this morning. Both of the tree guys showed up on time. That's a first!

It not on the store but “we can order it for you”.

Prescription medication commercials - "Ask you doctor about xxxxxx." I think if my doctor wanted me on xxxxxx, he/she would have discussed it with me.

They also show people engaged in happy and pleasant activities while reciting a litany of side affects: May cause sudden heart stoppage, internal organ failure, hemorrhages, memory loss or seizures.

I think those ads should be outlawed from the very beginning.

Post your peeves in this thread.

You call a business about double billing and are told, "There's nothing we can do about it - it's all automatic."

If that ever happens, call the Attorney General's office in your state. Sometimes they will help you.

Your driving in the left lane of a 2 way highway and someone is in front of you going way less than the speed limit?

Years ago a radio personality described the driving situation as: The imbecile- the driver in front of you that's driving slower than you. The maniac- the driver behind you that's driving faster than you.

I hate when driving and the person behind starts honking because you don't enter the traffic fast enough. I wait until it is safe.

You turn on the TV to watch something you've been waiting weeks to see and it's preempted by a minor sports event (like local college football game).

I hate it when my wife makes a simple observance like when I started screwing the caps on a 30 bottle spice rack she just bought. I was busy trying to screw the bottle caps on just right so they would line up readable.

She said I was wonderful for trying to make it right for her. Then she added just screw the bottle caps on & turn the bottle so it reads right.

You're waiting for a bus, and suddenly you're overcome by a truly vile stench. You look and discover there's an overflowing garbage can next to the bus stop. Happened to me today, not for the first time.

The most depressing thing is to watch the real news.

When you make appointments to get something done at your house and the people come late....or not at all.

We have two appointments tomorrow to get estimates on having a tree taken down, one at 8 and one at 11. Whatcha wanna bet at least one stands us up?

^^^^ This!

They are indeed banned in the UK.

At the doctors office when they say is going to pinch a little.
