    Skiing in the northeast is annoying. I mean, I've wrapped my brain into accepting no travel to real mountains, and then it rains on a day when they said just a few days ago it would snow a foot.

    Benny, you should come to NJ. Sun's out now. I imagine some nice spring corn could be had at one of our many fine resorts today.

    Don't annoy me. I had a ticket to Plattekil I cancelled and rescheduled for another day. Most likely rain on that day, too.

    Hah. Maybe.

    Mostly what Mikey was getting at, though, the kids pay. I have to play by these insane rules just to maintain peace and keep the kids from feeling the need to arbitrate some silly bullshit like scheduling a dentist appointment.

    I truly don’t begrudge the financial side even a tiny little bit. That’s actually part of the conflict... she works in an insurance call center, so she knows all the codes. It’s the most tedious thing ever... and I’d rather pay for the $40 procedure or whatever than do backflips and jigger the scheduling and pick and choose between alternative treatments, etc to get it covered under insurance.
    focus.

    This annoys me. Look at the FIS/IOC “Freestyle Skiing” icon that’s been used since at least Pyongchang.

    The skier is upside down, fine. But why are the ski tips still pointed up? This avatar has been bolted to upside down skis for years now and no one has noticed but me? FFS.

    Youth sports schedules annoy me...oldest kiddo plays at a pretty high level for both travel hockey and travel soccer clubs. Of course their practices for the spring happen to fall at the exact same time on the same days.

    Biggest snow event of the season. Ski hills finally reopened today. Cross country skiing and fatbiking conditions are the best in ~two years.

    Horrifically sprained wrist says fuck all that outdoor fun. That is annoying. Guess I'm back to hiking ffs.

    Yeah, I am all about dressing appropriately and skiing in all conditions if we are somewhere, but there is no fucking way I am driving 2 hours + in an ice storm to ski in the fucking rain at Hunter fucking mountain.

    whole foods wench, who has to hold the milk cooler door open for multiple minutes while she decided which brand she wanted. Not looking for expiration or a broken seal or anything. Just holding the door open, looking. If only you could see through that clear glass eh

    and don't give me the hairy eyeball when I say 'excuse me' to get a gallon, while you're standing there growing old in front of that thing.

    Shit that annoys you

    Adobe commercial with that Rolling Stones song ‘She’s a Rainbow’. Song may be cut up dunno. I like the song but the commercial bugs the piss out of me somehow. It shouldn’t given how horrible everything is these days.

    She rubs dookie in her hair, rubs it everywhere, it’s like a raaasaaasaainbow (of dookie).

    She commercializes shit everywhere, everywhere, and everywhere it’s like an everywhere-bow.

    I dunno, it’s not the worst because, just rock and art but somehow still bugging the shit out of me.

    Also bugs me “hi my name is rexovohallofhske! And we invented schloppie when we discover many people pay much way to many on car insurance”

    Also if you’d have told me we’d have this fucking MGM commercial, I might (no but still) have voted against this legalized sports book in CO. “You get some skin in the game and you get the VIP and the BIG and it’s go time!! Like how I got this sweet S.U.I.T. With my gambling WINNINGS cuz I put skin in the game at go time!!! U wanna be like Jay A Emm Eye Ee? Then get in with some Mo-N-E-E!! Ain’t you a bro? Bro? Get sumskin in the game!!”

    Shopping online for climbing skin tip and tail attachments... total price for the parts... $28... shipping to Canada, $55, express, $92. Small items that fit in one hand and weigh half nothing.

    Are his goggles on backwards?

    It looks like he’s facing the viewer so tips aren’t backwards

    Snowmobiles with aftermarket, so call high performance exhaust systems. I live in a big snow-mo riding area. I like to take the dogs for a walk out on the frozen lake, said lake also sees a lot of riders. What the hell. Squeeze throttle for three seconds and winder up, then let off. Repeat often! Annoys the shit out of me.

    Same, every time I’m around a sled with a normal exhaust I want to thank them profusely.

    I don’t know how most of these sled/bike riders with basically open exhausts can hear a GD thing after a day of riding, it’s so fucking loud.

    Tips aren’t backwards but he’s mounted to the wrong side of the skis.

    The tips are pointing up away from his head, regardless of direction which is what annoys me.

    He’s gonna have a bad time when he finally lands that flip and those tips dig straight into the ground.

    You’ve got your phone, pull up Fugazi’s song Waiting Room and sing along.
