They started putting the stupid letterbox around my movies! Then, they told us it was because our TVs were the wrong shape. Then, the bastards sold us new flat TVs in the supposedly correct shape. Last week, I picked up a new DVD and watched it on my new shaped TV and what did I see? The *******ED LETTERBOX! HNC, I'm not sure how, but, you are to blame for this.

My TV has a "zoom" feature. It makes the picture fit perfectly. :clueless:

I really dislike people that make a phone call from a noisy place.  I answered the phone at work today and could not even hear what the woman was saying. It sounded like a dozen little kids rioting in the background.  To top it off, it was a wrong number and her English skills left a lot to be desired.

Agreed or people like my mom that will call me on her cell from home instead of using the home phone knowing that her cell service at her home sucks and cuts her off everytime.   :hammer: :hammer: :hammer: :hammer: :hammer:

People that don't park correctly.  You want to protect your little car?  Do you know there is nothing more than I would like to do to your car than walk by it and key the shit out of it because you park like this?

I have no problem with this kind of thing, as long as the perps park 1.347 miles away from the entrance to which they're going.  :rotf:

A severe pet peeve of mine are the clueless jerks who throw their car door open and leave a dent in YOUR car because they're too stupid to understand that that kind of thing happens when stupid people are issued driver licenses.

What's up with that commercial for K9 Advantix, where the puppy incites a labor riot?  He calls for a strike, with no affection, no friendship, no nothing until they get their K9 Advantage and ditch the Frontline.  Then all the dogs are given little SEIU bandanas to wear.  I hate it. 

My husband hates the commercials where the husband and wife are contentedly chopping vegetables.  "What's with all these ****ing vegetables?"  he'll say.
