My car got ####ing egged. And not because I pissed anyone off. Because my sister and some of her friends used to be friends with these 3 people that are ####ing douche bags. And we're going to assume it was them because my sister's best friend's car was egged or tamponed or something the other week. And if I find out it was them, all three of them are going to need 4 new tires, and they are going to have a grand ol' ####ing time cleaning off all the eggs and oreos after they take all the saran wrap off their cars. I'm about to murder a hoe.

You...blonde girl, driving the new gen Mazda3 putting on mascara, tossing cigarette butts out your window (any smokers here that do that? You are all jerks.), and deciding the shoulder on I-25 is your own personal lane to pass everyone.

I just noticed today facebook on chrome isn't working anymore :mad:
was working just fine before i left town, and now it won't load right.


Weird. I'm on Facebook all day every day pretty much (yea I have no life) using Chrome. Sometimes if FB starts to act up, a Ctrl+F5 (full refresh, no cache) will take care of it.

That does sound like tut. He thinks spyware is so he can spy on other people.

Ugh! annoying. I social-smoke off an on, and always throw my butts in the trash, never ever smoke in my car...

A few months back I was driving through a park and saw this fat-a$$ parked in an SUV stuffing his face and tossing all kinds of food wrappers out of his window even though there was a trash can 8 feet away. I couldn't help but turn around to cuss-him out, I rarely yell or confront people, but this guy pissed me off... I said 'quit littering you fat funk!' and he said 'funk you!' and started his car and drove off...

The smell of raw sewage. They are working on the street outside my work and we have the windows open. All of a sudden the whole office smells like sewage. Why it smells like sewage, I have no idea they are replacing sidewalks not diging holes in the street.

Not even joking, I thought about that....



Next grind...

When carpooling with a co-worker and he assumes he can smoke in your car, then gets all butthurt when you grab the cigarette from his mouth and throw it out the window (I was only this mean because he didn't even bother to ASK!).

Then the same said coworker hits you up for a $100 loan until payday...BS

No cache, eh? I'll try that. Been running CC cleaner, but to no prevail. (Cache, pronounced- cash)

(downloads more toolbars...):lol:

I would like to suggest avoiding Ikea at all costs. My friend and I went there. It took us like 10 minutes from where they have you turn off to get to the parking garage to get into the store. Then there's tons of people in the store so it's next to impossible to get near anything you might be interested in.

ya know you can always skip the showrooms. IKEA is an awesome place 90% of furnishings are from there. they have nice stuff for cheap.

Ikea was a zoo. I thought it was long enough after its grand opening to go, but its not. (like Learjet said)
Parking there was a nightmare since every street is coned off and confusing parking attendants were all over the place.
The store was packed and it felt like a cattle ranch even before closing.
Finding the exit took too long and it seemed like the store went on and on and on, to the point where i had to ask someone where the nearest exit was.
As we were leaving something/someone triggered the fire alarm and this awful loud ### buzzer was going off all the way to the parking lot, hurt my ears and pissed me the F off.
They have cool stuff & good food, but i don't think i can go back for a long time.

And i've been to other Ikea's in other states/countries so I knew what to expect, but this was different.
