    I can't stand it when coworkers decide to clip their fingernails in the office. I have to hear that damn clipping sound every 3 or so weeks from the guy that sits diagonal from me in our office. I have asked nicely, and not so nicely, to do that kind of stuff at home. He still won't listen to me. It drives me crazy!!

    I can't stand when people break into my office, or for that matter the office above mine, so that all of a sudden the building security guard feels the need to come harass us every two hours about whether we're keeping our doors locked.

    I also can't stand how freaking expensive apartments are in every place remotely near No Funswick that doesn't suck and the fact that on top of the obscene prices of apartments in NYC, Hoboken, etc. it's almost impossible to find one without a broker fee.

    Above all, I just can't stand New Jersey anymore. Somebody find me a job in Baltimore, please!!!

    If you don't want to remove the piece of gum from your mouth while talking to me, push it to the side with your tongue; I don't want to hear you trying to chew and talk at the same time.

    I can't stand when you get PM'd about your profile and what someone doesn't like about it. And, then get told about how hard their current situation is and about how you are a jerk. Cherry on top is that you have NEVER talked to this person.

    Who would waste the time and energy needed to either get offended about that or PM you about it? Wow. Some people, I swear. . .

    As for me, I'm tired of hearing lead stories about President Bush's polyps. I do not care, and I do not wish to see a camera in someone's rectum while I'm attempting to eat dinner. Thank you, ABC News, for your attention.

    I laid into them, probably way too hard and said a couple of things that I shouldn't have. But they should have keep these thoughts to themselves, period!

    Why do people pronounce bruschetta broo-SHET-ta? It's broo-SKET-ta. If I walked into a Mexican restaurant and asked for a tortilla, rhymes with Godzilla, everyone would think I was a huge ignoramus. But go to any Italian joint in the country and even the waiters are butchering a word that should be perfectly easy to pronounce.

    Trust me, if the allegations against you are true, you are going to wish you never made that PM. You better get your Sun board credentials started...

    Ohhhh, not fair! You can't publish a post like that without a lil' hint as to what was said!

    Curiosity killed the cat I suppose.

    I won't ask about the PMs because it's none of my business but what is/was in drarray's profile that made someone upset?

    BTW, more and more people seem to be sending nasty PMs. Or at least more are getting in trouble for it. Why do people keep sending stuff like that? Lighten up, folks.

    I am pissed off by the same thing that you are pissed about, I think. Well, that, and that Sony, two freakin' days after they release a new TV which I sold six of, has decided to recall the TV. Way to make me look like a genius.
