[BobV]

People who hate because they can't except that not everyone is going to think like them and take it as their mission in life to change everyone's way of thinking untill they think just like them, sorta like I'm trying to do right now, damn I hate me.

[northcat_8]

northcat, the problem is not with those third-worls customer support techs answering the phones. They just do thir job as best as they can.
The problem is with management of that HP or any other company who is using 'outsourcing' (which means hiring some cheap ass custome services in India mostly, but in some other cheap 3rd world countries as well). Thats where you should send your complaints - to the ****** who decided to laid off those already underpaid customer service reps/techs down in USA and hired even cheaper 'equivalent' in India.

(BTW - I have nothing against India, but I have alot against fuckers trying to lie to me that their name is Jonathan in a thick Apu accent, and that they are located in call center in Washington - as it happened to me when I called AMEX...).

I don't disagree. Those people and you are right most are from India, I know they are just trying to do their job and support their family just like I am. But get a job you can do effectively. I'm not a brain surgeon...you know why? Because I only know half assed what I would be doing. I know where the Cranium is, I know what the brain looks like and I can even identify various parts of it but I don't just dive in and "figure it out as I go."

Another thing that pisses me off...are those people who ask you for advice or for your help (cough..newbies forum..cough) and then tell you that's not it. For example: "I backed up.........movie skips and eventually freezes. It plays on the PC but not my stand alone." Why can't they just except that 90% of the time they just bought some cheap ass media?

[Doramius]

I don't like the service at the post office. Always get you in, get you out. Everything seems rush rush and nobody there to help you out. I guess you could say, "I hate the post office."

nuf said.

I hate gas prices, super-size stores (super walmart) & rude cashiers.

You must not like Super & GreatLand Targets, too. Anyone else dislike Shop-Ko, if it even exists anymore?

[thayne]

I like target. The store near me is always clean, well stocked and the employees are always curtious. Unlike walmart which is the total opposite. Target even has better prices on most stuff...

We dont have a super target here, but I like the target we have the employees are always nice, I cant stand the SuperWalmarts (we have 2 of them) they are way too busy even at midnight!! and the people that work there dont care about you. We have shopkos but they are never very busy.

It's kind of the opposite here. There's no Shop-Ko here, but they were always overpriced and poor service at the ones I had been to. The Targets here, doesn't matter which one, always seem to be out of what I'm looking for and the reply is, "our shipments come in on Thursday nights." I came in on Friday morning bright and early when it opened to get a printer cartridge that they normally stock heavily, but it still runs out quickly. THey didn't have any, and after 30 min. of waiting for someone from the department to come, they tell me it wasn't in with this shipment because there wasn't any room. I went to walmart and got it that day and they had plenty in stock and the person said they get their shipments twice a week. That and 3 other Targets still didn't have a printer cartridge the next week later. I guess it depends on the area.

[SatStorm]

Cencored Cartoons! I hate cencored cartoons!

And I hate P.C. the way it is forced today worldwide. Educate the masses and wait one generation or two to see the results. By forcing you won't succeed anything!

Also, I hate when North State Americans correct my "ain't" with "Isn't". I like "ain't". It is a tribute to Tex Avery and Bob Clampett and to my biggest all time idol: Foghorn Lenghorn!

I gripe at people who can't spell 'censored'. :P

[Treebeard]

busting my butt working, going to school and having a family of 5 and I support it myself. Then I see these people who are abusing "the system" getting all this government money for food / rent and they sit at home watching soap operas.

Could'nt agree with you more there, but what really pisses me of is the system that allows itself to be abused.

Agreed. I also hate lazy, good for nothings who have no intention of ever getting a job when they can live on state benefits and especially those that say "I get more in benefits than I would working, so why should I" and those people working pay for these lazy fuckers through their various taxes.

[Doramius]

Lazy people like that need to be left on the street or kicked out of the country. It'll be a heck of a lot cheaper for mass airfare once to get them to some country in Africa, Far South America, or some large island away from the US, than it would be to continue to pay for them through taxes. Make them work and grow food to survive. It sounds humane to me as they can truly show wether they can survive on their own or not.

I picked the areas at random due to the fact that it requires heavy work to survive by growing own food and makeing own clothes, and not to specify any racial decent.

[DereX888]

Keefkey, but this is the problem with the social system, not with those lazy bums.
People are like animals - they adapt to the environment.
You cant expect them to go to work for *less* money, if they can get *more* for doing nothing.
I've seen hardworking people coming from poor countries, who very quickly became typical western bums living of off welfare once they moved to Canada.
The problem is with the system allowing such situations, not with the people who just take whatever is better (for them).
BTW - not that I condone this type of behaviour, as a matter of fact I hate those lazy asses sucking up on my taxes. But this is reality, and govts instead of expanding welfare control offices etc etc should have just cut down the amounts of monies handed out to them. Person on a welfare must be poorer than any lowest income making McD kid, its a fundamental principle of any welfare, otherwise the whole system simply collapses, sooner or later.
Excersise your rights and go vote on those who wanna cut this cancer, thats what you can and should do.

Don't worry SatStorm, ain't is a word and is in the dictionary. Ain't it nice?

I hate the Brady Bunch- I have never liked them.

[Capmaster]

The Hollywood elite who speak out about society's ills like they're experts, and their idealistic plans to make it all better, when they have no clue what the average working family has to put up with :P

[Grimey]

What do you find yourself griping /bitching about the most (reoccuring)?

Overly negative people :P

[DiablosuX102]

self-centered people, one minded people, ignorant people.

the majority of people my age (or kids whatever, i'm 15) are total ******** and very immature (most grow out of it though).

edit: oh, and adults that try to act "cool" around me.

On your next vacation to the USA, visit the backwoods of Georgia or Alabama.

Jus one thing - if you drop your wallet, kick it ahead of you until you get to a public place. They like "them thar Greek boys" in the backwoods

[SatStorm]

Well, someone has to explain me that in PM, because I don't understand it

What I love most with the American Turists those days, are those "experts" they are sending one day or two, before a group of American tourists arrive at a destination, so to value the place. They are dressed like early / mid 80s, and wearing T Shirts with their name and a big "Expert" under it. They have and some variations at times: "Entertainment Expert", "Food Expert", "Security Expert" and "General Expert".
Some time, they are so dedicated to what they are doing and we don't understand, that we make fan of them. For example, some weeks ago, there where spending five hours at a 700 meters road, taking notes about anything and anyone. We where sitting at a outdoor cafe (we call them cafeterias here), and the owner of the cafe just for fun tune the TV to "Al Jazeera" ! The General Expert immediatly called the bus to came and get them back to whatever they were based and we never saw them again. Ohh, and the group of the american tourists (about 40 of them), cancelled their visit!

Excellent! just watch out for anti-terrorist forces taking out the cafeteria

I think it's funny watching german tourists visit Pizza Places. A lot of them ask for silverware. I know it's a cultural thing, but you gotta get your hands dirty sometimes. And not everything has sauerkraut to sanitize your hands.

You should offer them corn on the cob

I went to Atlanta once on a business trip with a co-worker, Roger, and we went to a pizza place there. Roger was raised in South Carolina, and apparently his family never touched their food with their hands. I wonder how his mother prepared the meals

We sat down and the pizza came. Roger pulls out the knife and fork and starts hacking away. It was the silliest looking thing .....I'd like to see him eat a hot dog or ribs or string cheese. Or this - how the **** does he eat popcorn or Dorito tortilla chips? He'd have to achieve 128 positions of the Kama Sutra to get the chip out and in his mouth without dropping it on the floor

Maybe he uses a suit like the boy in the plastic bubble

We have another guy on the floor who is paranoid about germs. In the men's room he takes his leak, and then uses his foot to hit the flush mechanism which on the urinals is about chest-high
