Things That Piss Me Off

1 Stupidity - almost always someone else's
2 Religion - anyone, anything, anywhere, anytime

4 Speed limits, or maybe it's just the enforcement that bothers me
5 Crappy software
6 Junk email
7 Crappy software specifically from Microsoft
8 Zealots and perveyors of irrationality (UFO-mongers, psychics, House of Representatives...)
9 Stupid products (like that bass fishing game... "you can hook 'em, and feel 'em fightin ya!"... whatever)
10 The Big Crunch or the Entropy Death of the Universe (take your pick)
11 Not being tall enough to spike a volleyball in front of the ten-foot line or play basketball above the rim
12 "Pro-life" and all other conservative social efforts
13 Commercials that really suck
14 The fact that stupid products (see #9) actually sell, and I work with people who buy them
15 Sportscasters who can spend 3 hours saying nothing... Frank Gifford... need I say more?
16 Kenneth Starr and his House cronies
17 Generation X
18 Spiders and centipedes (kill 'em, kill 'em all, the bastards)
19 "Off" days and my other imperfections, not that there are very many
20 Unfathomably stupid sitcoms and that I watch them (see #19)
