Things I hate but am forced to live with.

[gonefishing]

I hate it when It's cold outside and I pull up to a gas station that has broken off those latches that holds the gas flow.

I hate opening a DVD. It takes almost ten minutes to open one.

Anyone else have any good ones they to list here:

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

1. Any electronic bits packaging.

Ever notice that most of it requires a Sawzall and cutting torches to open? Diabolical.

[Glenda]

2. Plastic Bags...

I'm not really forced to live with them. BUt when I buy one thing at the store, and the clerk puts it in a plastic bag. Sometimes I am quick enough to stop them. Most times not.

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

3. What others have mentioned

I also hate some of the Pakistani foods my husband loves so much (and loves to cook); their odors completely funkify the house for days, not to mention the refrigerator. But I love him and knew this going in, so I put up with it. Incense helps!

I hate being in law school classes with arrogant twits who've never worked a day in their lives and think they split the atom. God help their future clients - I wouldn't want them as my lawyer!

[Glenda]

4. I also hate defrosting meat n/t

[bigwillq]

5. I hate clearing the snow from my car

when my car has been sitting out in the parking lot at work and it snowed four or five inches.

I think that might happen today.:scared:

[McKenzie]

6. shaving every morning. If I'm in a hurry...

I leave the house with at least one shaving cut.

[loudestchick]

7. I hate that I must drive past a Wild Oats (natural foods) to get to the

Wild Oats store that carries the products I need.

[NNadir]

8. I hate having an evil retard occupying the White House.

[Guaranteed]

9. Jamster commercials.

It's just a fact of life, now, I guess.

[pres2032]

12. i second that!

[RetroLounge]

10. The packaging on Kid's Toys

Everything is wired and screwed and otherwise attached to the packing cardboard of the box it comes in.

Takes too long to get the toys OUT of the packaging.

14. Sha-Bang, I knew I forgot one

[driver8]

22. Packaging of kid's toys -- what is up with that???

That drives me absolutely insane! Also, they use that plastic that you can't open with your hands...you have to use scissors and cut through it. I hate that crap.

Oh yeah -- opening cds drives me nuts, too. What is with that sticky label thing they put along the case. Once you finally get the plastic wrap off, you have to deal with this thing.

[RubyDuby in GA]

11. Ex-boyfriend that just will not move out of my house

Seriously, I'm beginning to think bad thoughts while watching forensic shows on the Discovery Channel.

[tjwmason]

18. What?

Does he give a reason for staying? Did you share before you got together?

Change the locks, and dump all of his belongings on the pavement outside whilst he is out.

[Longgrain]

13. My parents...

:mad:

No, just kidding, I love 'em...I just feel like I want to desperately move out sometimes...

[Kipepeo]

15. Cleaning the toilet

But MOST of all, cleaning the tub. It's a pain in the ass to bend over forever and have to scrub the tub. I hate cleaning it more than any other cleaning activity I can think of.

Except mopping.

God how I hate mopping.

[proudbluestater]

16. Battery compartments with SCREWS holding them shut! ARGH!

[gonefishing]

17. That's another really good one.

[kick-ass-bob]

27. YES! WTF is that about?!

And its not even just the toys for 2 yr olds!

:grr:

[lpbk2713]

19. I hate thinking about the next four years.

With that asshole in the White House.

[Skittles]

20. I hate seeing the Iraq casualty headlines, any news out of Iraq

it just sickens and angers me no end.

[Ivan Sputnik]

21. Living with a pack-rat

"Oh, don't throw that away! I want to use it as a craft material (some day)." Or: "I want to give it to (whomever) when I see them (some year)." Or: "I might be able to use it for . . ." Or: "I might need it sometime." OMG.

[driver8]

23. Will Robinson, I feel your pain...

My wife is the same way and it drives me crazy. I'll start to throw something out and she'll say, "Wait, I was going to use that for such and such..."

Drives me crazy -- she has shit everywhere that she was going to use for "such and such" that never gets used!

[Tom_Foolery]

36. Same here...

my wife saves everything to put in a yard sale. We have crap stacked all over the house. When I complain, she just moves it around and says that she cleaned it up.

[Spacemom]

24. Cleaning our hamsters cage

It only has to be done every 2 weeks, but it's just a PITA.

[x-g.o.p.er]

25. Cleaning up dog poop...

I have a great dog, but for every upside there is a downside.

[kick-ass-bob]

26. Opening children's new toys with the 10 billion twist ties

holding the thing in place in the package.

[Freebird12004]

28. catching mice

I can't let them live in my house - but I hate to kill the little mice after we catch em. Most of them avoid the traps that will allow us to release them - however - we still set those traps and release those few live catches. Otherwise - it's sticky boards :cry: and death.

[ImpeachBush]

29. Ditto and Ditto!!!

Two of my pet peeves, as well!!! Not just DVD's, but CD's in the sealed & taped crystal cases, as well. Urggggghhh!

[Allenberg]

30. "Do you think I'm fat?"

and other no-right-answer questions that women ask.

[ImpeachBush]

31. Trying to find the lid that matches a tuperware-type container ...

They are all crammed in the cupboard with the lids, and I have to find a chair and climb up there and practically remove every item from the cupboard before I can locate the one that matches the container I've decided to use. I really, really, really hate doing that.

[cally]

34. I hate that

I used to buy new occasionally. I finally sorted it all out and threw away any that didn't have lids. Then I put the lids on and store them that way. It takes more room, but it works better.

[gonefishing]

32. Three More

Finding a matching lid to a coffee mug
Goop that comes with Lego toys
Play-dough

[itzamirakul]

33. My asshole sloooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwww

second-hand computer. It takes forever to load any damn thing. I could cook a full meal waiting for it to change pages or go from one site to another. Aaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggg!

[cally]

35. All the beeps

Why does the dryer beep when done? It's plenty noisy, I can hear when it stops. Why does the microwave beep, the dishwasher, the iron?

Don't even get me started on the car. :argh: We had one car that just started randomly beeping. We couldn't fix it. We ended up trading it in to a dealer instead of selling it. We couldn't pass on that problem to anyone.
