A place to voice your pet peeves, annoyances, and things that Yank Your Chain!
Does something really get under your skin? Yank your chain, Cause you to see RED, Drive you batty, Make you want to scream?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above, then here's the place to let it out! We want to hear about those things that each of us encounters in everyday life that make us want to scream: I'M PISSED AND I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!

Every one of us has his or her own peeves, things like: Why do Customer Service Reps always try and blame you for the problem...or Why do companies keep you on HOLD for so long when you call. Any of the minor annoyances that tick us off on a daily basis--but we feel helpless to do anything about.

Well here's your chance--let's hear what rattles YOUR cage.

Here's my gripe: TV Commercials. They're excessive and intrusive. What reasonable person would want to watch a 135 minute movie that airs for 210 minutes. Every six minutes there's a 3 minute commercial. Totally insane!

Here's my gripe: Reviewers who say they loved your wok, found no flaws or errors, nothing they would change --- and then leave a 3.5 rating without any productive notes. Come to think of it, I really despise this rating system for that reason.

Here's my gripe: The way really drunk people tell you over that they have never smoked marijuana and never will do, then continue by lecturing you about how its so wrong. Yes friend you hold you socially acceptable poison in one hand and your prophecy in the other.

Here's my gripe: Reality TV. It is neither real, nor worthwhile tv. Do we really need time wasted on selfish, vain & almost maniacially egotistical people who would never share the same air with each other if the ostentatious bauble of celebrity-hood wasn't on the line?

Here's my gripe: I'm going to have to agree with Elomi on reality tv! I'm also upset with craig's list. Someone e-mails me, and says they want to purchase my item, and then they never show up to buy it, or they just blow me off! Act like an adult!

Here's my gripe: I am frustrated with my inability to convey certain ideas. For instance, the human personality is a construct based mostly on false data and improperly arrived at conclusions. I can see this so clearly, but can't make it understandable.

Here's my gripe: How stores remove Halloween decorations on Nov. 1st and put up Christmas. Does noone celebrate Thanksgiving anymore? Given the general ingratitude... maybe not :-( Now, two days before Christmas I am rid of the humbug and will enjoy holiday.

Here's my gripe: I despise arrogance, self-righteousness and self-pity, I think above all other characteristics. That's why I give them to my antagonists!! I also despise people who think they know everything and say "I know" all the time.
