Ok... I'm better again. Really. Want me to Prove it? Fine

^_^



There. See? I'm better.

So anyway, now that I've got my mental collapse out of the way and am feeling better, it's time for this week's

"THINGS THAT REALLY PISS ME OFF"

Because I don't have pet pieves. I have MAJOR PSICHOTIC HATREDS, and IRRITATED SIETHING BITCHES



So...

1) People who wait till the last minute to start anything, not because they have so much to do, but because they EXPECT you to help them out when you've finished with doing the same thing. I have far too many of these people in my major. And I'm not talking about such things as people who don't understand something but have at least put in the effort of at least attempting something. I mean the people who wait till the last minute to start... ALL THE TIME.
2) People who are only trying to get a line of work because of the money. I'm not saying people who get into the line of work because they have a talent for it and know they can make good money there. Because that would then include many musicians who have plenty of talent and are only demanding they get back what the put into something. I'm all for making money if you know how to do something and enjoy it. I'm AGAINST people who get into a field, and expect to get money, but they whine about working and/or don't know what they hell they're doing.
3) People who do something over and over EVEN AFTER YOU'VE GIVEN THEM A REASON WHY THEY'RE NOT SUPPOSED TOO. Example? People who come into the CS lab and install software that is proprietary and starts bogging down our systems. I don't mind if they want to use something like Napster... but when you're done, remove it, DAMMIT... or at least disable the option that leaves it on ALL THE TIME.
4) Software that automatically asumes you want it to start EVERY TIME your computer restarts. Either ask us, or have the default NOT load the damn stuff.
5) Real Player... actually, anything by real.com. Why? WHO THE HELL WANTS TO UPDATE THE PROGRAM AFTER YOU JUST DOWNLOADED THE NEWEST VERSION? If I download version 8, I don't want it to be telling me, on completion of installation, that I need to BUY the update. Either give us the propper package, or get your sh*tty product off of the web.

Ok. I'm finished. {exhales}
This house... is clean.

Until next time folks, Grow up. :-)
