professors who assign a midterm right after spring break...happened to me several times...

edit: and 8 page research paper?...really?...c'mon...if you're gonna label it a "research paper", let it beat least20 pages...i would've been happy if i only got assigned a 8 page paper over break...

10 point font single space, 8 page minimum. Considering all the bullshit he wants on it I'll be lucky if its only 15 pages.

unless your professor never taught a course in his life, this is bullshit...no way in hell any course instructor will read through papers with that small of font and single spaced...unless of course, he doesn't read them...

Back when I was in school, we had to use 2 point font, with negative 2 space, and it was 100 pages!!!

And it was a report on a 6 paragraph poem!

Drivers that break instead of speed up when they realize they're holding up progress.

It is, and for some major gas chains it is also like this (Mobil being one, at least all of them in my area offer a discount for using cash.)

The big chains just charge everyone the same, so cash customers end up getting the shaft there because they're paying for credit processing despite using cash. I only use cash in my personal life, and try to use it more often than not in my business. Banks can shove it.

Or you can get an exxon/mobil card and pay the cash price with it.

Meijer has something similar...if you use their credit card, you get 10 cents off per gallon...and that might even be for cash price too...but i don't want to get another credit card just so i can use it at only one type of gas station that is sparsely located...

People blowing my facebook up with either A) Gay marriage means you're going to hell or B) If you're not down with Gays then you're worse than Hitler.


They all need to get a room and fuck it out.

Even if I filled up 3 times a week(and that's a ridiculous amount of driving, even getting the shitty 16 mpg that I get), that's less than 6 bucks savings a week or like a 2% savings. Not really worth getting my jimmies rustled over, really.

Plus there are plenty of credit cards that give 2-3% cash back on gas anyways.

Little old ladies who look and act like some grandma out of a Mrs. Field's chocolate chip cookie commercial running out on their tab. Fuck you can't trust anyone.

Indian Customer Service reps that won't get off their script and let me explain my problem, and instead wastes ten minutes looking up a non-existant account and a non-existant phone number because THAT'S THE FUCKING PROBLEM.

Indian Customer Service reps that then 'issue a trouble ticket to escalate your problem and you should get a call back within 24 hours' even though at no point did I actually get to communicate the actual problem, so I can only assume the ticket is a string of ??????????? and smeared feces.

Indian Customer Service reps that then leave a message on my phone of which I cannot understand ONE FUCKING WORD, not even the number I'm apparently expected to call back.

I also hate Indians that smell like a 500 pound man who just ran a 10K on a hot summer day while leaking gallons of shit out his asshole while fucking up every single project they are ever assigned.

How the fuck are corporations saving money with this bullshit? I'm tempted to throw this cell phone into the street and just not fucking have one because that is preferable to trying to communicate with another goddamn shit-smeared alien babbling in moonspeak. Right now the number I've had for 12 years is stuck in fucking limbo because of a failed transfer (it had a typo, but Verizon happily released my number anyway so now it is unclaimable by anyone and both phones are bricked) and the only CS rep I managed to talk to who I could understand and who understood my problem was completely powerless to do anything about it. An attempt to send an email to get around the language barrier (THEY ARE SPEAKING FUCKING ENGLISH) instead got me another voice mail that sounds more like three monkies being fucked by an elephant than any kind of human speech.

What kills me about this whole thing, is Americans as a whole are known to be intolerant of dem farners with their fancy accents and why can't they lern to speak 'MERICAN and so on. So why the fuck would a company hire a bunch of fucking indians for their CS and expect anything but pissed off customers? Your customer service rating going into the toilet is EXACTLY THE EXPECTED RESULT BY EVERYONE ANYWHERE. And that stereotype is well earned because I'll be god damned if I speak to one more of those clueless fucks today.

Costs down, profits up, customers with issues get pissed off and quit your product but that's okay we'll make it back ten fold by spending the money on marketing instead. Fuck you.

PS: Got a 'merican on the phone and what 5 Sprint pakis in three days couldn't fix was fixed in five minutes. Switched back to Verizon as a result, apparently sometimes you really do get what you pay for.
