Frustrating Little Things: part 2

Twist off beer bottle caps that aren’t.

Book markers that mysterious move from one reading to the next.

Lawn movers and leaf blowers that only start on the last 1000th pull.

Cars with automatic door locks with the key still in the ignition while you are on the outside looking in.

Friends short cut directions that turn into long cuts.

A baker dozen that by the time you get home are 8 something.

Instant micro-wave soup that taste almost as good as it’s cardboard box.

Computer games that don’t fit the operating program – gridlock.

Withdrawal programs in which no one has a clue. Betty Ford or Iraq take your pick.
Sure things i.e. my brother bring up his wind surfing board for the weekend bring utter clam for 2 days.

Five star movies that in your opinion are minus ones.

What's eating at you buddy besides typos?

Lawn movers? (I liked that one. Got me thinking.)

And..."my brother bring up his wind surfing board for the weekend bring utter clam for 2 days"? Perhaps there's some northwoods wisdom contained therein. Or maybe it's just cabin fever setting in early.

What happened to part1? Now that is frustrating.

Twist off beer bottle caps that aren’t. IT'S A CAN.....

Book markers that mysterious move from one reading to the next. THAT"S BECAUSE YOU READ A COUPLE PAGES.

Lawn movers and leaf blowers that only start on the last 1000th pull.
YOU COUNT? WHAT ABOUT THAT CHAIN SAW YOU ARE USUALLY OBSESSING OVER?

Cars with automatic door locks with the key still in the ignition while you are on the outside looking in. PERHAPS YOU SHOULD GET A CAR WITH AUTOMATIC UN LOCKING?

Friends short cut directions that turn into long cuts. NO COMMENTS GIVEN YOUR FRIENDS.

A baker dozen that by the time you get home are 8 something. SOMEBODY EATING IN THE CAR WITH AUTOMATIC LOCKING?

Instant micro-wave soup that taste almost as good as it’s cardboard box. MOST PEOPLE DON'T EAT THE BOX BUT WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT. HIGH IN FIBER I WOULD IMAGINE.

Computer games that don’t fit the operating program – gridlock. DOESN'T APPEAR TO IMPACT BLOGGING ACTIVITIES.

Withdrawal programs in which no one has a clue. Betty Ford or Iraq take your pick. BETTY'S MAIDEN NAME WAS BETTY BLOOMER. NO WONDER SHE STARTED BOOZING EARLY.

Sure things i.e. my brother bring up his wind surfing board for the weekend bring utter clam for 2 days. THANK GOODNESS IS WAS A CLAM HE BROUGHT AND NOT THE CRABS.

Five star movies that in your opinion are minus ones. WOW, THAT WOULD BE FRUSTRATING ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU PAY ALL THAT MONEY FOR THE 15 GALLON VAT OF POPCORN......

I just can't sit in my computer chair for more than 5 minutes with out htis new knee going into shock. So a typo here and there, big deal... it's the lack of thought that counts, doesn't it?
