Today's pet peeves
Oct. 6th, 2009 06:39 pmare mostly frivolous:
**Somebody took the bulb out of the light over my papasan chair and didn't replace it with anything. What?
**headaches
**random strangers who friend my twitter stream with multiple duplicate accounts
**the fact that standard home stores don't sell untextured cotton dishtowels, except for the super flimsy flour sack kind
**mosquitos
**people on DeviantArt who feel the need to tag my profile with "Thanks for the Fav!" comments anytime I admit to liking their work. Also, that DA doesn't allow me to delete these comments, only hide them. If you actually have something to say to me, great, please comment. Otherwise, go advertise yourself somewhere else.
**the fact that "wists" keeps displaying the wrong image for several of my recent favorites
**trying to navigate the chaos of the DOA marketplace to find anything I want without giving myself eye & wrist strain
**somehow not managing to get to bed until late, practically ever
**missing another pub sing despite marking it on the calendar (in fact, so far this month I/we haven't made it to anything that's been marked on the calendar, or even the stuff we planned on that didn't make it there)
And, on behalf of
grauwulf: **people who are so convinced their favorite brand of glasses is TEH AWESO that they expect you to suffer a week of migraines trying to get used to them before they'll let you return the things.
Alternately, the list of things that are good included this rather cool short story. Although I find the bell thing slightly creepy, in a logistical sort of way. Possibly this is just a flaw in my mental image, though.
