The little things in life (that irritate you)

[Bick]

This goes way beyond "a little thing that irritates" me.

This is make the beast with two backsing bullshit!

While drone operations have made significant contributions on the battlefield, sitting thousands of miles away from any danger, operating a radio controlled airplane, does not merit this level of award.

Seriously?  To put this ABOVE the Bronze Star?  And just below the Distinguished Flying Cross? 

It dilutes the valorous merits of those that have put their lives in harms way.

so...would you call it the XBox medal or the Playstation Medal?....WiiMedal?

I do agree with you though...recognition...fine...but to put it in the same class as medals earned in the field...I don't think so...just give them a challenge coin for chrimony sake...

That awkward moment when your body tells you, "Uh...dude...that's not a fart."

(Actually it drives me absolutely batty...even from the inside.  the real problem is once your in, its almost impossible to get let go, so they wind up up with a bunch of shit bags that get bounced around because no one wants them.)

Sounds strikingly like corporate America.

getting the run around from my primary care physician to get a referral to an ophthalmologist, pay my specialist co-pay for them to tell me 3 hours later "that's weird.  we're going to refer you to another specialist."  Who also charges me a specialist co-pay to say "yeah, that IS weird.  Nothing I can do."  Awesome. 

So basically I spent a bunch of money and a day off work to be told exactly as much as I knew before.

When companies show off cool stuff...

But don't make it available for purchase.

...that people seek to enter into an ongoing dialogue about other people's irritations... instead of coming here to be originally irritated

I'm irritated that you are irritated.

Seriously...., has anybody mentioned being irritated with the Ducati plastic tank follies? I will be switching to my third and last gratis tank very soon as the one on the bike has become impregnated with ethanol.

irritated that when I listen to the news station in the car on my way to and from work...the broadcast is predominantly littered with repetitive stories about the sequester and furloughs because congress is playing political chicken and posturing for their own party purposes instead of serving the people that sent them there to do their freaking jobs instead of taking a week off before the deadline as a part of it all...

BTW...this is not meant as a political statement of anykind...this is more about people just in general not doing their jobs for which they were hired and making excuses as to why they can't or won't do their job and costing other people money in the process without a care...

that moment when you are approaching a stoplight with no cars in your lane and some asshat has to switch over into your lane to move 1-2 cars ahead...
