Exactly, I'm not sure the eye candy makes up for it. And on that note grocery stores that don't have a brewery upstairs.

Showing up for the 2 o'clock bbq at 2 on the nose and being the only one who gets there before 3. Fucking stoners. If I didn't have a million emails to catch up on this would really suck

People that don't know how to show up fashionably late, which is really on time. You showed up early like a wanker ;)

Everyone has that friend or couple that always shows up to your function 15 minutes early. Come on people I've got to finish getting the house, food, bar, and God knows what else ready plus slam 3 or four bourbons before I'm ready to see any of you.

And "selfies". Why the fuck do you think everyone wants a full screen size picture of your face on their social intertubes? Heard a great tagline for these stupid pics today too, "I love me enough for the both of us."

Heh on both accounts.

Today's annoyance; trying to listen to ESPN Radio through my browser. Fucking feed cuts out after every commercial break and it won't start after the commercial breaks. I have to refresh the page. WTF, over?

You should see the strong arm tactics they are taking with business owners. Giving a big Fuck You to many people. There are some court cases for small businesses that I hope hit $7 figures, that $50k would have made go away 2 years ago. Can't wait for a LA jury to hear some of these.

Slow zoom, ultra tight, trying to add unneeded drama camera shots during the MLB playoffs. It only seems to get worse as the series progress. PULL the fucking camera back so I can actually watch the fucking game instead of some dudes fucking sweaty ass face.

Young dickwads on conference calls trying to act all intelligent and blatantly brown-nosing. It's a Monday, Sport. Dial it back a bit. The rest of have real work to do and don't have time for corporate political asshattery.

Heh, I came across this in the grocery store this PM. Man & Woman weighing a combined 700 lbs easy. Guy pushing the cart...every step causes the bow of the cart to swing 30 degrees. The woman is walking right alongside him...moving at a glacial pace. At one point I got impatient, doubled back and around the adjacent aisle and back to where I wanted to be before Shamu and Willy made it that far. They seemed pissed that they had to walk single file for 10 fucking feet

Not working in a kitchen, but for whatever reason, management seemed to hire an all female client service team that likely averages 5'5, 300 lbs.

Had a pizza party a few days ago. You could build a fucking levee with the amount of pie crusts from that department.

When you put a pot on to boil, crank up the burner to high and walk away without seeing the big blob of some greasy shit in the drip pan.

Or, when a moth crawls into the halogen lamp.

Or when you turn a burner (electric) on high and realize your water hasn't boiled in 10 mins, only to realize you turned on the front left burner for a back left burner cook? So! Annoying!

Coming back to work after being out for 3 days and having to deal with 273 emails in your inbox. Seriously, maybe a handful were relevant to anything I need to really worry about. I've been at work since 8:30 and am just now able to actually do any work after wading through that shit.

Ineptly constructed burritos.

Burritos where they don't mix up all of the contents at the end so you end up getting a bite of rice, then cheese, then meat. Oh, how I miss you Illegal Pete's. Why does no one else comprehend this seemingly simple concept?

Not really annoying as it is pathetic. I was parked at Staples buying office supplies and heard my cars make, and color called. My first thought was that I had left my lights on or something of that nature. When I got to the front and there was an obese women that had parked next to me and she could not get into her car as she needed the full 45 degrees of door opening to get in her car and I needed to move. Both of us were in our spots.

edit
As I was typing this on my Ipad my knuckle hit the send button. It reminded my of an annoyance. When I am on my smart phone and am trying to read an article and there are a dozen hyperlinks all over the screen to advertisers and sometimes to various words or names within the paragraph. If I try to touch the screen to zoom and it seems like 1/3rd of the time I get linked to page that I didn't want.

Having to look up stuff like "tl;dr", "astroturfing" and a variety of other "memes", including memes. If Interwebz english was a course in school, I'd flunk.

Mrs Larry has been pushing kale hard lately, including the chips. Fucking brutal stuff. Thinking about tossing out ALL vegetables in the fridge and replacing them with Doritos and Oreos in retaliation.

Trying to buy tickets to a show, see all the decent seats are sold out, see all the decent seats for sale on CL for double the face value.

Pisses me off how many people buy them just to resell on CL, fucking over people like me that got the invite late. FFS
