    People in Birtain who hate you for using the word Soccer. One of the biggest shows on television about football is called Soccer Saturday, so stop winging about it!

    When my company changes everyone's due dates for their orders, thus confusing everyone. Now I've got new people whose orders will be late. They'll get a late charge, the orders will arrive to them late and I won't get my bonuses on the new people because they're late.

    I don't know why it bothers me, but I really dislike it when I see people use syfy as the abbreviation for science fiction.

    Me too. Science fiction has nothing to do with syphilis. (Yes, "syfy" is slang for syphilis in Polish.)

    No, they were called "SciFi" back in 1992 when they started (20 years ago, wow), then they became "The SciFi Channel" later on. The change to "SyFy" only happened in 2009.

    I felt like whining and wondered where this treasured thread went.

    Well, soccer involves feet more than football . What really annoys me about soccer is when you try to gide someone wearing a Liverpool shirt and joke about how the blues are better... and they look at you all clueless.... as they prolly have never watched a single EPL match ever and they have no idea what Everton is. What... the.... frell... They think you're insane. Most though, who actually know their kit... laugh their heads off .


    When you politely inform a customer who has her 10 year old son carrying a bottle of scotch up to the counter that he cannot actually carry the bottle (being alcohol due to law) [I the one serving, the mother and my company can get in heaps of trouble. Specifically I can get a $10, 000 fine and loose my job and ability to work with alcohol]. You say "I understand because you're carring some things. Just when you leave he's not allowed to carry it". Then she snappily replied "Well, I've got my hands full!". (She was carring a newspaper and magazine and had a free hand) ... "Yes, as I said I understand that. Maybe give him some of the papers to carry for you?". Then asking if she wanted a bag (meaning paper bottle bag) she exclaimed "YES, AS IF YOU CAN'T SEE MY HANDS ARE FULL. OBVIOUSLY. Far out. This is ridiculous". Then she, with her "full hands" just puts the bottle on top of the newspapers (still has a free hand) and walks out of the shop .

    Poor lady behind her, I remember last time something like that happened she was there too !!! I'm surprised the kid didn't tell the mother to calm down and stop being so psychotic. Though the fact he had a vacant face and said nothing makes me suspect things going on at home ....


    Parents/people who beat up or abuse in any way children. They make my blood boil. And those who take advantage of people who are down/weak/mentally handicapped/physically handicapped.... or just plain old take advantage of anyone.

    Whenever I see a parent yelling at a child for no reason, I have to refrain from punching their noses in. Or parents who smoke near children... Yep, one day Imma snap and snap them one across the cheek.
