Last minute " Blizzard Warnings " I really do hate the Winter season & the snow with a passion here  . I have never had the chance of experiencing snow so I am kinda jealous mszanadu and I would love to have a snowy Christmas. Over here it is summer.  It is good to experience once or twice maybe, but it gets old real fast Deb. Listen to my friend mszanadu. It basically sucks

Rebooted shows
I mean i like a lot of them but at the same time, It's sad that the entertainment industry is running out of ideas and resorting to reviving old shows

shows or movies that have really sensitive audio mikes and pick up every single paper rustle, scrape of a utensil over a plate [unless that sound is what the topic is about], or gulp of a drink [unless that sound is what the topic is about].
i love Everybody loves Raymond but this show really picks up every single sound and it is annoying to say the least.
home improvement shows are exempt from this because of saws and crap. the volume is expected.

When my roomate sets his alarm to go off every half hour and it goes off about 4 times before he actually gets up.
When people stir up trouble just for the fun of it because they like having drama in their lives.

It is good to experience once or twice maybe, but it gets old real fast Deb. Listen to my friend mszanadu. It basically sucks Oh one more thing I forgot to mention about this awful winter season  . The intense wind - sounds really scary when we are indoors and when we happen to be outdoors in it feels like a breath of deadly cold too  . DebLovesBeccy I'm not trying to discourage you here on this just being realistic here it is a really tough season of the four indeed  . I agree with jayhn1111 here too  . At first it all seems real exciting especially if you have never experienced it before  . Also as children living in these parts you just have a bit of fun with it for a short time until you want to finally go into the home and get warm afterwards  . Of course after that phase is way over it can become an inconvenience and a drudgery experience  . A back breaking shoveling snow nightmare before it become a packed down dangerous sheet of ice on your outdoor stairs , walkways and your driveways too  . That if not properly attended to on the first day of snow fall It can be a really big yet tiring chore especially when you have time limitations or important stuff to do that involves leaving the home ( YIKES ! - not fun anymore )  . Thanks so much jayhn1111 for backing me up on this subject here too  .

People who are upset by things they see posted on Facebook, Twitter etc. Don't use them: they are just dumping grounds for f/wits whose brains are too small for the amounts of viciousness they generate.

People who stare at me, though it depends on the person. People who barge into, walk into me, though it depends on the person. People who talk to me when I don't want them to the number of people who are arrogant cocky and obnoxious

When I'm at a crowded music venue, and all these people are leaning up against the bar just standing there drinking and they're completely blocking everybody else from getting their drinks. If you already have your drink then get the hell out of the way and make way for the rest of us!
When on a line at a CVS or Walgreens and somebody in front of you has all kinds of issues and is asking a million questions about discounts and I'm just standing there and all I'm buying is a birthday card that takes like 2 seconds.
Shopping in the supermarket and getting stuck behind people that look like they're doing 9 months worth of grocery shopping. Though at least now there's express lines at least, but that plagued me for years.
When I'm on a train and somebody behind me is talking on a cellphone for the entire ride. After the ride is over I feel like I got to know the person better than his or her own family does. I don't want to hear it and the person is talking loud and is being annoying.
At a bar when people that have a few beers and all of a sudden they start talking twice as loud as they normally would. It's like settle down and keep your voice down, we can all hear you
going into restaurants when a big Football game is on and the whole place is noisy and going crazy.
TV shows that write stories with the sole interest in pushing their own partisan political views.

When you are at a store like rite aid -where there is one line that breaks up into however many registers are open... and you are paying/whatever and then there is the next customer literally breathing down your neck. get. the. fvk. away. from. me. dickbags.
people of any sort of nationality/race/ethnicity who are loud in their disagreeance with their N/R/E's stereotypes but EMULATE THE STTEREOTYPES THEY SAY THEY HATE AND RESENT!!!!!!
people who apparently have enough time on their hands that they can go to protest after protest after protest. don't you have jobs? anything else you are passionate about? colon cancer research, childhood cancer research? save the whales?
people who 'are not biased' but still call him President Donald Trump. Just President Trump. constantly calling him by his full, entire name, complete with title shows bias against him. especially with distain in your voice. you don't like him, stick to your words and move to Canada. that is, if they'll have you.

Thanks so much jayhn1111 for backing me up on this subject here too  . That's alright. Thanks for letting me know mszanadu and jayhn1111. Snow just looks so pretty and fun in movies and TV shows and I would love to run around in the snow and have a snow fight, build a snowman and go sledding but I imagine it would be different for the both of you since you are used to having it and have experienced the negative sides of it. It doesn't look too good when it snows houses in and blocks people from going outside and I have seen people having to shovel snow off their driveways and roofs. I hope both you and jayhn1111 have a safe winter.

When light bulbs blow. We have had 3 blow here in the last week and one time when my Sister and Brother In Law were here sitting at the table for lunch the light above blew and it went off with a huge bang in flames and smashed on the table and my sister was lucky it didn't hit her.

TV interviewers whose main ambition in life seems to be how many people they can reduce to tears on camera. They usually do this by witlessly asking some recently traumatised person, "How did that make you feel?"

When certain foods or drinks are only sold in a certain area.  I'm a 35 year old from Southern California that spent ages 24-34 in washington state and now I live in Pennsylvania. I used to get this all the time as a kid in southern california... until one day in 1993, it was no longer being sold. They also never sold it in Washington state either. I saw it again for the first time in 2013 when I visited my friend in Connecticut. I cried. Luckily it's on shelves here ALSO, This Pibb Xtra soda is also not sold here in PA or where I grew up in california. because It's a coca-cola product and Coke is responsible for the distribution of Dr. Pepper in the 2 areas.  But where I was living in Washington state, It was on shelves there because Pepsi is in charge of Dr. Pepper distribution there. it's no loss. The original Mr. Pibb formula was better than Dr. Pepper. My mom worked in a city where Pepsi was in charge of Dr. Pepper so she brought mr. Pibb home from a store there. but once they changed the formula to Pibb xtra, I went back to Dr. Pepper. But it still annoys me when certain beverage products are only sold in certain areas

That's sounds beyond annoying DebLovesBeccy what a terribly scary experience that definitely must have been  . I only hope you and your family members were not seriously hurt either  . It certainly seems like that light fixture was defective  .

stores apparently [don't lie] telling their employees NOT to help customers pack their groceries if they bring their own bags. NOW we are going to be charged a nickel a piece for each plastic bag we take from the store. WHAT. IS. THE. POINT????
now here is why this is a problem.... there is a store i frequent [large, nicely stocked, comparable with the KMart by Penn Station in NYC... and three times now i have had to ask to see if the cashiers are allowed to help customers pack BROUGHT bags. all three answers were: yes! and we encourage you to keep bringing them back so we do require them to help pack. {TOTALLY KNEW THIS}.
finally i [and i hate to do this] named the cashier who just stands there, staring blankly at you, until she tires of watching you and then STARTS CHECKING OUT THE PERSON BEHIND YOU! it happened to be the same person from the other times i have had to pack all of my own oranges.
i hate naming someone as in personally chastising them, but her attitude within itself is eerie to say the least. like god stole her smile muscles.

Without even knowing, I ordered a large fountain drink and lo and behold they have Pibbs!!!

LOL That reminds me, It was always in fountin in my area of california because the restaurants aren't getting the syrup for the fountains from the local botting plants like the stores are getting the cans and bottles. it just isn't sold on store shelves here in Bucks County, PA or San bernadino, Los Angeles and Riverside counties in California because Coke is reponsible for bottling dr. pepper in these areas. I haven't been to ny so IDK how it is over there but... If the 20 ounce bottlesof dr. pepper in your area in ny are shaped like the Diet one in the pic, That means coke is bottling it and likely will not sell Pibb on Shelves in stores. The non diet bottle is a pepsi distributed bottle
