Email birthday cards. I guess I should be grateful they remembered... but I'm not.

Most people will think that means doubled.

When somebody asks me something then says "forget it". I always take it as a hostile statement when really they probably just mean "nevermind". There is a coworker who says this a few times a week.

Waiting for an elevator, and people re-push the button to call it...

"THE BUTTON IS CLEARLY LIT UP, I KNOW HOW TO PUSH THE BUTTON, I KNOW HOW ELEVATORS WORK, IT'S ON ITS WAY, **** YOU, GO DIE" ...

The first is ****ing stupid and should irritate people. The second example is perfectly normal.

The second letter of the word fulfills the first syllable by itself. If you really want to pronounce the e you could say something like "eh-ex-am-in" or "eh-ex-plo-deh". The whole point of the post is to illustrate the benefits of a language where you can look at a word and know how to pronounce it with a minimal set of rules.

I'm going to miss not tipping people when I leave China. I do not look forward to tipping everybody who opens a door or cleans a window for me.

People who go for runs barefoot. I'm seeing this more and more, must be a trend. It doesn't affect me at all, it's just the way someone chooses to jog, but it pisses me off. I see these jagoffs and can just imagine them jabbering about their barefoot running, paleo diet, and how everything was better when we were all noble savages out hunting and gathering.

That's because you can't be 200% sure of something. That's not a limit on the definition of percentage though, that's a limit on how sure you can be of something. 100% represents the maximum definition of the word "sure". There are plenty of examples of things that can be over 100% already listed itt.

Im not a songwriter nor do I play an instrument, so I'm not someone worried about his craft being sullied.

But it ****ing enrages me when I hear a song and they rhyme a word with the exact same ****ing word. I just heard some Kid Rock song on the radio and he rhymed "things" with "things" and it just made me really angry. I have no idea why it bothers me so much.

People who don't hold the door when you are 2-4 seconds behind them.

People who push excessively when they are trying to get into the gym to write an exam. I mean, we all want a seat either by the clock or by the exit but there is no need to push.

People who hold too many seats in an examroom or a movie theatre. I mean it's fine holding a seat for one other person, even 2 is ok, but more than that is rude.

People who swear excessively. Its just annoying and inappropriate, we aren't in seventh grade.

Back when I was playing live poker a lot there was this one younger reg who would always say "thanks for the donation" after he won a big pot from me.

This reminded me of another thing people do that piss me off. People who say that online poker is rigged when I'm playing live poker. I am always very tempted about breaking my cardinal rule about not talking about online poker live when people say that.

It pisses me off that holding the door is so standard. I hate that middle ground where you're not sure if they're close enough, and I feel like a lot of the time I'll stand there and wait because of social customs when I really should just continue on. It's a ****ing door.
