Comic book store hours. Every one of them doesn't open till noon and close at frickin' five
Who do they think they are, CEOs?
I happen to work graveyard shift and would like to pick up a few items at some sort of decent morning hour. Every other store is either nine or ten.
Lazy asses
Well it wouldn't be much of a 14-year old teenager's dream job if he had to get up any earlier then 11:00, now would it? ) I took a friend to a comic store with me once while a picked up a few titles. He almost got booted out for 'mishandling the merchandise' and he pretty much vowed to never return. I have to admit, it seems like most the comic book store employees I come across can be some weird prima donna types!
everyone, with the exception of the owner (who can be intimidating sometimes, other times he's sweet), and my local Comic shop is pretty chill. they don't yell at you for sitting down in the isles and paging through books and are REALLY good at recommending stuff. They DO have really weird hours, but are open on sundays...which is AWESOME.
All these posts remind me of this guy:

Professors who act like 10 year olds towards me and my classmates about trivial matters...matters they shouldn't worry about anyway. Anthro club is not really their concern.
I do amend my earlier statement about comic book prima donnas. The last time I was in a particular shop, a gentleman I didn't recognize asked if I was interested in anything. Since my wife has become something of a Thor fan, I asked him about an old limited series called 'Thor Corps'. The first issue wasn't in the back issues, so this gentleman actually located an issue in the back, opened up the sealed sleeve, and let me peruse it. The art seemed a bit subpar, so I didn't purchase it, and he was absolutely cool with that...Kudos to you, Mr. Comic Book Man I Didn't Recognize! {[]
Recommendations. I don't need them. I'm here for two titles only.
Stop hawking your wares by "recommending" me something that I can tell sucks!
mine only recommend when I ask them. otherwise, they leave me alone to peruse...
SPRING SNOW. we've just had three spectacular sunny days and now, there's near a foot of snow on the ground
My peeve? When I go into somewhere like Cafe Rouge for a nice brekkie and a read of the newspapers, by myself, and the women in uniform there look at me like I'm some nutter. Now, for all you know I may be. I may have entered in ripped jeans and a smelly hunk of sweating leather, copious facial hair and a bike helmet, chewing tobacco, but I can assure you I didn't. Grey Gap T-shirt, Gap shorts, plimsolls, hair cut recently. But the woman maitre' d give me a look of constipated frozen suppressed horror like a woman in a silent move. What a charming welcome!
I do tend to have this affect on women, it's either an instantly good impression like, "Ooh, can I have your babies!" or this instant disregard and distaste, all when I've done nothing at all other than exist. Actually, politician Alan Clark tends to get it a lot in his diaries.

With baseball season coming upon us I'll most likely be going to a few games to watch my favorite professional baseball team at my favorite major league park. I don't mind if you bring a radio, but please be respectful of the people around you and put on some headphones. If i wanted to listen to the game I would of stayed home and watched it on tv (or listened to it on the radio ).
Some people would complain even if you hang them with a new rope
the person who decided that everyone who's windows face the way mine do wanted to listen to their music. SOME of it is decent, but like, 98% is rubbish...but it's 80 some degrees outside and I REALLY don't want to close my window...

Employees who don't show up for work X-(
I was supposed to have four employees in this morning...and only one of them---my manager---showed up.
I am so sick of hiring people who interview well, promise to show up for work...and then, once hired, turn out to have personal lives that are apparently in the midst of flying apart like one of Wile E. Coyote's ACME brand Rocket Sleds... X-(
Save me, Oscar Jade. You're my only hope! :x

My Manager.A$$hole. Always breathing down my neck. Pacing through my work area like a swooping vulture. Head tilted down to his hand-held gizmo. This electronic toy means more then looking me straight in my eye or a simple handshake.
I'm the piece of crap and he's the fly buzzing around the pile.
Spidey's creed is great power brings great responsibility? Brings a corrupted self inflated "head man" who thinks he's god.
Should've married a rich lady like my best friend did.
wanna be gangster types who are in MIDDLE SCHOOL and try to act all thug to me. kiddos, you're on my campus in my dining hall. I CAN punt your weeny butts out the door 'cause you're just that miniature. k thanks.

This reminded me of one day at work. I was up front in the checkstand and there was two kids looking at sunglasses. My manager was up front also. These kids seemed to be minding their own business but stood at the sunglasses rack for a few minutes. Next thing I know my manager tells them to "get out." When they asked "why?' my manager told them "Because I'm sick of looking at you." They left without incident. I thought it was cool, but I'd never do it.

An ongoing concern of mine as Loeff Jr (14), has some friends who apparently aim to fall into this category...and at now nearly 6'3", Loeff Jr isn't of the miniature variety, but I aim to keep him on the Light Side of the Force...

I f***ing hate that crap! X-( You can laugh, but my dad worked in a sorting office at the height of the IRA campaign in the early 1970s, he had an arm blown off. It was a very stressful time.
And f***ing bitch sings about them in a happy, carefree manner every Bank Holiday! They're certainly not one of my favourite things.
Shame, really. His first couple of posts struck me as satire on a high level. Apparently that's all there is

The last 3 posts in this thread are cringeworthy! The conformist club is alive and well )
Do you know any other word? You do realise that you do actually have to conform to certain things for a society to survive and for there to be any chance of peace and a united community. People are evolving, you seem to be regressing.
