Thought I would resurrect this thread as it was one of my favorites for venting...

Here are a few random things that really annoyed me this week / today!

Paper coffee cups that slowly leak... I am looking at an ever expanding puddle of delicious Tim's that will not ever reach my lips... 

People who ask for your help or have a question but will not let you finish before they starting rebutting your explanation, or argue with your answer. 

People who feel that because they pay the company you work for a monthly fee they can yell and scream at your as much as they want.

People who think by saying "This is unacceptable" that I will suddenly change my mind.

When you accidently bump into someone at the grocery store or whatever and apologize and they don't bother to acknowledge you said anything.

People who ask me at work if I speak French, to which I reply "Oui, un peu" which means "Yes, a little" and they then start talking to me in rapid fire, Quebecois, slang and I don't understand 75% of WTF they are saying.

That's it for now... Thanks I feel a little better.

Go with your own.

Hey Guys,

Long time no talk...  I could list a bunch of excuses but suffice to say work, and family has been taking up most of my time added to the fact internet axs at work is significantly monitored, and where we live now the fastest I get is 28.8 KBPS!!  Anyway  I hope all my old SW buddies are still around and can help me out...

I am looking for a place to download a specific video clip from ANH.  The clip I want is when Luke is lightsaber training on the Falcon.  I need the part where Luke complains about not being able to fight without being able to see, and Obi-Wan goes on about feeling the force around you...

Anyone know where I can download that?  Or anyone able to rip it form the DVD for me???

The closest I found is this clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUjTTKziu_I, put it is a little too late in the movie.

Anyone??  Help me Jedi Defenders.. you are my only hope. ;-)

If you eat enough beans... anyone can levitate for an instant. ;-)

Though the side effects are smelly.

As for David Blane, his special street majic totally blew me away, and his book was very cool also.

Yes they do:

Suspension and Banning: If a member has his posting rights suspended for a period of time, generally for a rule infraction, he will be notified of it and will be told when he may write again asking to be reinstated. If a member is banned from the forum, he will no longer be permitted to participate in the forum again. It is important to note that both suspensions and bans are for the member, not the account, which is further explained below

The bold italics was added by me.

Stupid stuff like this by mods, or forum admins drives me nuts.  I got kicked of the mod team of a GI Joe board (board is down now, big suprise) because I darred to question an admins decision.  Actually I didn't question it, I said OK, but took the time to explain why I did something.  Power trip super egos!

Happy Birthday Dale!!

My first real summer job was at a private golf course.  I was really excited to get hired, as I thought I would be outside all summer, working on my tan, and hiding from work.

Not to be... I got to work in the locker room.  I spent my days shining shoes, and cleaning up after the filthy old men.  My first shift I almost quit after the third hour of having to look at 80 + year old men walking around naked all night!  

They were all rich old bastards, treated up like crap, and their tips were total garbage...

I remember one night I look over and there is this old guy standing there drying off after a shower...  except he has a growth on his side the size of a freaking football!!  And he is toweling it down and powerdering it up!!

YUCK!!!!

Oh the horror!!!!
