Me?

Paying for air and/or water at a gas station...

Shell held out the longest 'round here, so I was loyal to them, But no mo' freebies, so no mo' Tour...

Paid once and the effer shut off before I got all four tires... I'd rather run on my rims than pay again for air...

Better solution than rim running...
Bought a $8 air cigarette lighter powered air pump at Wal-Mart... If I run the engine I know I burn more than $0.25 worth of gas, but I DON"T CARE!

I feel better now....
More later,
Tour...

    Glad we could be here for ya:D


    Id rather spend 15mins/tire with a hand bike pump than pay for air.

    Oh and uh, that bottled water everyone seems to pay a buck or more for?......bottled in LA:confused:

    Know what you mean...

    My local Advance Auto Parts store has free air, though, so I can just stop in there. Plus I have a Craftsman 12v lighter pump so I could use that. OR if I'm at my house I can use my portable compressor (though it has to be refilled several times per tire if the tires are totally flat. usually to top them off, I have to fill it maybe once beyond the first tank.)

    I gots my options :)

    I must admit I'm guilty of pissing other people off there. If I'm driving above the speed limit and someone comes up behind me and rides my tail (at _above_ the limit), I'll slow down to exactly the limit. That gets some people mad. usually they duck off at the next intersection to find another way around.

    And no, I'm not being a total ****... I never go *below* the speed limit.

    if someone gets on my **** ill brake to half the speed limit until they get off my ****, i dont tail gate ppl and esp. if theyre going at or above the speed limit
    but the courteous thing to do, if theyre not being a dick and tailgating you, is too simply get over
    its not that hard...

    Is this going to be a two-part question?

    I just flip the switch on the Craftsman and I have air in a minute or two.

    But the thing that pisses me off the most is...... well...... see....... I work in IT.......... people ask me technical, computer related questions all-the-friggin-time. But that really doesn't bother me at all, I don't expect everybody to be a f-n expert, in fact, I like being helpful. BUT when somebody asks me a question...... AND THEN THEY ARGUE WITH MY #^%$ING ANSWER, THAT HACKS ME OFF TO NO END!!!!!!

    If you already KNOW, then WHY IN THE &%$# DID YOU ASK ME!!!??? ^#$#@%$#%$#%$********#!~!~!~!~! greenchainsaw.gif

    sowen- you brought up another good one. I have one to add... I work in the IT dept at a tech school... what really sucks is when you're on lunch break and a teacher sees you and says, "I know it's your lunch, but..."

    Isn't that just the stupidest? I mean, IF YOU KNOW IT'S MY DAMN LUNCH, THEN STOP BOTHERING ME!

    Ahem... sorry. I feel better now.

    That freakin' moron who bumps into me everyday at my locker and tells me to watch it...
    That one guy who cut me off on the way out of school and nearly ran me into a curb...
    Getting assigned a big Computer Science project for monday today...
    Having to do a paper late into the night because I haven't had time for this week because I'm playing pit in a musical for another high school as a favor...
    Watching all those people in that school get to come in 5 hours later than I do because they were in the musical.
    Yup it's one of those days.

    Maybe I'll look back at this and laugh, or not. I'll let you guys know in twenty years. :)
    Back to my paper...

    I think Brad Nowell pretty much covered it, but we can always add a verse built from this thread: :p

    its you
    its that **** stuck under my shoe
    its that smell inside the van
    its my bed sheet covered with sand
    sittin through a **** band
    gettin dog **** on my hands
    gettin hassled by the man
    waking up to an alarm
    stickin needles in your arm
    pickin up trash on the freeway
    feelin depressed every day
    leavin without making a sound
    pickin up my dog up at the pound
    livin in a tweeker pad
    gettin yelled at by my dad
    saying im happy when im not
    finding roaches in the pot

    The use of the word 'mint' on every freaking item on ebay. Listen, coins, paper money, and stamps get minted. Baseball cards get minted. Freaking speakers, electronics, clothing, etc.... do not come from a mint. They cannot be in mint condition. Period.

    The word "literally".

    As in "I literally had a heart attack when I saw that".


    NO, you didn't. You figuratively had a heart attack. The word literally means you're saying EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. It actually says in the definition "NOT FIGURATIVELY". Why can't people understand the language they speak?
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    If I listed everything I hate, I'd be here a very long time and there would be hundreds of pages to this thread.

    Lately though, I did find one thing that pisses me off to no end.


    Stupid people who come to the POLK AUDIO website and ask questions about Adire Audio, Diamond Audio, RE Audio, JL Audio and damn near evey other company EXCEPT POLK AUDIO. Then...and THEN the stupid f$%&#$@ a@#$&*# has the audacity to get PISSED OFF when Polk Audio is recommended! On top of that, they have the further audacity to tell those who recommended Polk Audio that Polk Audio is junk.

    ALL ON POLK AUDIO'S MESSAGE BOARD!!!!

    Then still, others say we should be nice to these thundering morons who can't even spell! I don't want to be nice to these a@^$*$#@, I want to stomp a mudhole in thier stupid s&#$faced heads!



    So yeah, I really hate that.
