OT: Pet Peeves Redux

[mel mains]

Oooh yeah. It’s the absolute worst from like Foster, and even Bryn Mawr, on down to Diversey. For reference I’m over on the east end of Albany Park

Spent many days and nights on the Welles Park baseball fields, served on the board there for a few years.

Nothing else to talk about around here.

I got two…both involving any gas station/convenience store.

1) Always gonna be the scratch off turds holding up the line. I love the way they pick out tickets like they are John Nash busting a code.

2) The “manager” acting like he/she is busy with some spreadsheet in the backroom you can see or the next register while the line is 10 deep on the one open register. Newsflash…you ain’t Billy Beane crunching numbers. Please just let me pay for my beer and go.

Especially when starting sentences with "so..." when they were supposed to be responding to a yes/no question. Probably learned from politicians.

Here's another one: Why do refrigerator ice makers always kick out 1-2 more ice cubes AFTER you've pulled out?

Ah good place. I think I read that they canceled the fireworks show there or something? I was back in Nebraska for over the 4th, so I may be wrong. The Square fest though was great
