    the university decided to cut Cartoon Network from it's cable selection. I hope the "revolution" is able to get it back.

    I went to my psychiatrist today. After I spoke for a half hour I asked, "Well doc, what do you think?"
    He says, "I think you're crazy." I said, "I'd like to get a second opinion!"
    He said, "Okay. You're ugly, too."

    I went to a Lebanese place for a Shwarma for lunch today. I ordered it with extra garlic and I'm still tasting garlic.

    I hate that the speed limit on the A3 between Frankfurt and Wertheim appears to be 80-100kph for 90+% of the drive, and I've got a 200 series Mercedes wagon for the week.

    Hey Meatheads! If you're not towing anything with your pickup or SUV, take the tow bar and ball out of the receiver! They hurt like hell banging into a shin in a dark parking lot trying to not get run over and besides, when I had some numbnut on a cel phone bump into the back of me and rolled me forward, I came 1/2" from piercing my ac condensor, radiator and intercooler on your stupid tow bar.

    A body shop owner I know says she replaces a LOT of rads and condensors when it should have been just a light bumper tap.

    We're all paying for insurance claims.

    Oh yea, stop throwing your F****** ciggy butts out the window.

    Rant off.

    Re: The Petty Grievances Thread

    The driving-the-wrong-way-in-the-parking-lot thing seems to be universal. No matter where you go, there's just a certain percentage of people who don't understand that if they're driving in the direction the rear ends of all the cars on either side are pointing, they're going the wrong way.

    I guess that's why there are big, white arrows painted at the ends of the parking lanes. Sadly, the kind of person who doesn't notice which way the parked cars are pointing isn't likely to notice the big, white arrows, either.

    Re: The Petty Grievances Thread

    Speaking of parking lots.....

    My other petty grievance would be... people drive like they shop and shop like they drive. Stop blocking the isle and letting traffic flow. You don't have the right a way just cuz your cart may be bigger or fuller than mine.

    Re: The Petty Grievances Thread

    My ex girlfriend decided to stop talking to me bout two weeks back, wouldn't tell me why, but seemed rather . WTF? I thought we ended as good friends. The Grievance is that since she cut off contact- I can't really do anything to resolve the matter. And that is what's really bugging me/pissing me off... which is slowly eating away my concentration, causing much stress, and acts as acid to my soul. I could be lost in learning Bach's prelude in D minor and then that messy situation pops into mind and &^%$! I can't play a single note right, damn it. Maybe this isn't petty enough to be here after all. I'm just so freakin I needed to say SOMETHING to somebody.

    Re: The Petty Grievances Thread

    I hate it when your boss asks you stupid questions like "Did you do this and did you do that" Piss off you anal retentive micro manager. Get a real job - we are actually smarter than you think and certainly smarter than you will ever be. God damn pinheads who think they are managers and are nothing but administrators! End of bitch........

    By the way, who has played guitar loud today? Well I have. My wife and kids are off on a couple of days R&R and my neighbor (semi detached houses here - can hear him on one wall) decided he had to talk loud on the phone at 06:30 so I decided the tubes on the Super Reverb needed a little sterilization by warming those little bottles - can you say Stevie Ray Vaughan at 07:00 butt face!
