Things That Make You Go "AARRRGGGHHHH!!!"

I'm pretty much out of it now, but last week I asked my brother to buy a medicine I use. Because it was just one item listed on my prescription and I needed the rest for later (the date was still valid) and my brother couldn't tell the difference between my medicines, I marked the one I need and even showed it to him on the paper. He went to the drugstore while being in town for some stuff, a drugstore that is part of a big local chain. I didn't check the bag until hours later, when I discovered they sold him another drug I use but don't need at the moment. It wasn't even the usual brand I use, but a variant brand that uses the exact same components. But whatever. I was angry and frustrated from other things, but this made me take it all on my brother. He said that he showed the prescription to the pharmacist and pointed on the marked item, but somehow the stupid bitch gave him the wrong medicine.

A day or two later was around the store again and I gave him the same prescription with the wrong medicine with a strike on it, marked as being provided already. I again showed him what I need exactly but said that he can leave them the paper because I won't need it anymore, with everything I need on it provided already and the expire date closing in. When he returned home he immediately gave me the bag to check it. Guess what? Another pharmacist, wrong again! Same medicine, another brand that I haven't heard about before. I even looked carefully on the components to be sure - and there was no doubt the same drugstore made the same mistake twice. Before showing me the bag my brother says: "The pharmacist told me that this drug was already provided to you recently..." Of course it did, you idiot pharmacist!

You can imagine that I was even more furious now. I wanted to get to that store when I have time and throw both medicines at whoever is there, ask for the manager and a refund. Eventually I let it go and told my brother I'm never going to buy prescription drugs in that place. The pharmacy in my local infirmary is way better, I guess...

That is a fucked up story, guy. You have a lot of patience, i applaud you.

I hate rubberneckers on the road-I swear, it should be a law against this. Wow, you've never seen a person change a tire!

Nah...they've just never seen anyone change a tire in the .nude!

Shitty internet connection has been pissing me off all day.

The internet has made life so easy but yet so frustrating

Hour-long lunch breaks are great, but when you're running errands in a highly busy area during the last week of Christmas shopping, an hour is not nearly long enough.

Agreed...I love the people that some how cut in front of you on your way to the checkout with your 1 item and they decide they are going to return everything and ask a million questions.

Those 3D pop-ups that are a pain to get rid of...grrr! No, I won't watch armored!

Agreed with both.


Spyware, ad-ware, and 90% of the people on the internet. Half the people make me want to punch something.

More like the reason why I don't go to Cracked.com. Somehow I got spyware from that website.

Totally agreed. Totally!

Wal*mart sucks ass. We were trying to get shopping carts off the lot, but kept getting bogged down in carryouts even though we asked management to get people from the inside to help with carryouts. Which they of course refused. and of course we (cartpushers) were understaffed today. What doesn't help is that these idiot managers try to save money (even on things that definitely need repairing) just so they can get their bonuses. One example: we have over 300 shopping carts that are broken. and of course management won't fix them. And with our lunches they keep trying to make us get the lot checked before each one of us goes to lunch. Far as I understand it as long as we work 5 or more hours, we get a lunch no matter what. this "lunches based on merit" crap freakin breaks labor laws. Jerry was right. Wal*mart is evil. I'm already looking for another job. Tripper, continue to avoid shopping at Wal*mart. they don't deserve your patronage.

But they have such hot door greeters.

well you got me there.

Bosses who expect of you what they wouldn't do themselves. I'm not talking about actual items... I get it. You get paid more than me, you don't have to do the shit work. I'm talking about certain elements of work ethic. When I was the person opening in the mornings, it was of dire importance that night drop transactions be processed as soon as possible. Now that it means my boss would have to be involved in the process, it can wait until someone else is handy. When I want time off to go see Kristin, I can't have it, because someone else is already on vacation. But, when she wants time off because her mother's coming to visit, it doesn't matter that someone else is already on vacation, she just takes the day.

UGH!

Right now my house and my inability to be able to fix things. I'm not sure if I've went on a rant here about my plumbing issues. Plan and simple, we have a well. Sometime last week the water started shutting off intermittenly after a cold snap. Come to find out one of the pipes in my brother in laws shop burst. Both of us thinking that this had fixed the problem went back to business as usual.

Unfortunately this wasn't the case and after some most unexcellant adventures the water went out completely last night. Fastforward to today and come to find out one of the connectors on the pump came loose Brother in law fixes it and water is working great. Of course now that it's back the cold water valve to the washer has a slow leak.

Thinking I can at least fix this, I broke off the goddamn valve switch trying to tighten up the main valve. I'm hoping that some plumbers tape will at least fix the problem until I can get a new one on. I hate that the simpliest thing just escapes me and that I have to bug my brother in law to fix every fucking issue we've had with this house. Makes me wish we could afford to knock it down and start over again.

"Your" instead of "You're".

"To" instead of "Too", or "Too" instead of "To".

"Of" instead of "Have".

"Their" or "There" instead of "They're", or "There" instead of "Their".

"Ya" instead of "Yeah".

"It's" instead of "Its".

Also, putting apostrophes when pluralizing.

Talking to me when I have headphones in my ears, and can clearly not hear you.

In my case it's kind of the opposite, it's bosses who expect you to do what they do. I'm sorry, they're the Master Sergeants/Sergeant Majors/Officers. You don't get to be those ranks without volunteering to go on missions for weeks at a time, staying late every night, working weekends etc...you know, ignoring your family basically. I'd rather not be divorced or have affairs, like many many of them are/do. I wanna go the fuck home at a decent time and i will trade that for the money and "prestige" of the higher ranks. you got the rank, YOU stay late. I'm going home.

for me its people acting bad in general. like, no responsibility for their actions, not caring for hurting someone else's feelings, ect. here's an example;
a year ago when my puppy dog, Piper, was less then a year old, she had a big instinct of grabbing things from the kitchen counter and chew them to bits. My sister let my mom use her crystal light packets for a drink of hers and she left them on the counter. Piper got at them and my sister knew my mom wouldn't pay her back from them but asked to see if she would and my mom basiclly said "They're your crystal light packets, you but some more". WTF!? It was her fault for leaving them there and she shows no responsibility for them at all!

OMG! Yes! More specifically for me is the lines in theatres. What the fuck is up with the people behind the register. Movies start on a certain time, and they take their sweet-ass time. I was trying to trade in these tickets that were supposed to pay for a movie (this is when I went to go see Avatar and was trading in Inglourious Basterd tickets) but it won't pay for 3D films. I can still use them. At least for a 2D film. *sigh* I was then going to pay for both expensive ass tickets and the dude goes excuse me in the most insincere tone and started talking on the phone. I was like, "Fuckin' really?!?! Starts in seconds a-hole!"

I hate grammar Nazis. You caught me on the Spider-Man 4 thread. Honest mistake, but now I understand what you meant.

I totally agree with everything, but I don't see anything wrong the Yeah/Ya one.

BTW, Chris, you must hate reading a Garth Ennis comic book...
