Bad customer service:
When the person working behind the counter…
…does not listen, which creates the need to repeat an order several times; and
…is in the middle of a transaction with me and takes a phone call and helps another customer rather than asking the caller to hold and finishing up with me.

Whiners. Until I realize that I’ve become one.

[Usually male] comics who just don’t get that joking about rape, while theoretically possible to do without generating general outrage and coming off as totally insensitive, is slightly more difficult than pinning down the Higgs boson. And much more radioactive.

Bad drivers! I challenge myself daily to complete any trip without cursing. It ain’t easy… And I probably fail 95% of the time!

Used to be my knee. Now it’s my teeth. Whichever hurts worse at the moment. Pain sucks.

People who would vote for Obama in November but aren’t going to bother going to the polls — 80 million or so of them… almost as bad as people who don’t approve of some of Obama’s policies and therefore are not going to vote — thus handing the election to the rabid right. Like a disillusioned liberal refusing to vote for the weak Weimar Republic in 1933 — handing power over to Hitler.

People using cell phones while driving.

Masogynist, Conservative, Tea Party, Christian Politicians–Man and Female! Yes, that pretty well sums it up! They are scary the daylights out of me. I hope the American people are awake during this next election or we will be turning the clock back on womens’ rights 100 years and crushing the progressive movements for LGBT rights. I think there needs to be a more militant stance that co-opts the Vagina Monologues–The Vagina Wars!

Any man,guy or boy who wears that so called fashion of pants hanging off your ass that you have to walk with wide legs to keep pants from falling further, that they have to hold them up with one hand around their crotch, or that they have to wear two underwear underneath. It looks silly, why don’t they see that? Emulating prisoners is no longer transgressive either. It just looks dumb.
ps-
(I know how lucky I am if that’s my complaint!)

That we can’t wear scrubs and white coats to work in Australian medicine. Picking work clothes sucks.

Poor logic, hypocrisy, corporate media, and injustice.
(Also, bad cooking, nothing worth watching on TV, and power outages.)

Dirty STD-infected smelly public toilets!

Health insurance companies that charge ridiculous premiums for poor coverage and then deny payment for no logical reason,simply because it allows them to keep your hard earned money for longer, which garners them billions in profit. In the meantime, Joe and Jane high school diploma didn’t read their policy, don’t know how to advocate for themselves to fight back the UHC, Blue Cross, etc. to get their procedure, or diagnostic test paid for so they complain to the health care provider (who collects maybe 25-45% of what was billed if they’re lucky) because they don’t think they should have to pay. You know whose going to lose money and be poorer with “Obama care”? UHC, BCBS, AETNA, CIGNA, AND lots of other insurance companies. Those deep pockets are fueling the fear mongering, make no mistake about. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.

I complain about people who complain all the time – which is stupid of me, so then I try to just accentuate the positive, take a deep breath and stop being cranky. And I complain about Republicans.
