Those little things you hate

[ncba93ivyase]

1: Ads that slowly scroll up your screen and you have to click an X to get them to go, and instead of just closing, they slowly scroll away. It's like they're saying, "Do you REALLY want to pass on this offer? I'll just keep it for myself, I guess..." That only works with candy and shit that's not a pain in my ass. What's worse is that these ones tend to get around adblock.

2: Things that try to be helpful, but aren't explicit enough. e.g., You're stuck in a game and pissed off because you can't figure out how to move on. So you look up a guide, scroll past the 91823190 lines of EDIT logs and thank yous and copyrights and game item information and how to navigate the menus and pause screen, and when you get to the point you need help with, the writer just says, "Oh, this part was easy. I'm sure you can figure it out." Go fuck yourself.

Similarly, teachers/professors that aren't explicit enough. My CS professor this past semester didn't give out intrinsically difficult assignments, but his wording was so bad that I didn't exactly know what he wanted from me. It would seriously take 3-4 hours to figure out what he was asking, and about 1 hour to write my own code.

3: People that don't stop talking when you clearly want silence, like when you're trying to pay attention to TV, trying to eat in peace, trying to do your goddamn exam and you don't need every little rule read to you, etc.

4: Dropping food on a clean floor, picking it up, and getting a handful of hair with it.

5: (for people with longer hair) Getting a hair in your butt crack after a shower. It doesn't poke you until 5 hours later, but it'll start to burrow its way into your asshole.

6: Gas when you least want it.

When people show total disregard for the right-of-way rules at a 4-way stop. That's probably number 1.

I fucking want to bust out a gun and shoot idiots who will try to pass me on the right when I go to make a left turn at a 4 way stop.

Also, from work I have plenty. 

-Shitheads who can't read a fucking ten step instruction sheet on configuring their computer for wireless and installing the policy key YET they continue to try to correct me when I tell them to do something. Bitch, I do this shit 40 hours per week every week I know for a fact that I'm correct and your dumb ass is wrong, you couldn't even do something that takes a 3rd grade reading level and 30 seconds of your time.

-Some guy whose computer was running very slow. I ran CCleaner to clean up some temp files and some registry shit.  It was stuck at 0% for a long time and I told him it's probably because he had a lot of stuf in his temp folder that built up over the years.  His reply "I don't believe you".  What the fuck? Why the hell would I lie and keep your dumb ass around?  I cancelled it and it had already found like 2GB of shit to be removed.  He believed me then.


-"My internet isn't working" or "My computer won't work/turn on" being the only description of a problem when a person comes in.  I can't tell if they aren't connecting to the network, aren't connecting to anything outside of the school's network, or if only certain websites are down.    With the other I can't tell if they actually can't power the machine on or if Windows just isn't booting.


also people who call Microsoft Office "The Microsoft" or can't tell the difference between Windows and Office.

and when they ask us to "Download The Microsoft / Office / Windows" onto their laptops.

Very rarely does someone actually mean Windows when they ask if we can install (or "download") Windows on their computer(Usually a Mac user or someone with XP/Vista that wants 7).
