        Films directed by Ron Howard.
        Films starring Tom Hanks.
        Films that are a collabration of the aforementioned.
       
              Actually, all films/productions that feature the "most bankable" Hollywood players. Reliably awful. Another reason I haven't entered a theater since Wednesday Nov 22, 1995.

       
co-sign. wish i could say the same about 1995. It's been a while since i went to a theater though, least a year.

Last time I was in a theater was January 2001.  I don't even watch movies or TV shows anymore, except for the occasional reality show.

Am I alone on this one ?
Your in a drive thru and there is a small car ahead of you with just the driver. Time tics away..... you begin to wonder what the fuck could one person have ordered that is takeing so damm long... You want to yell out your window...  you try to get a glimpse of this idiot in his (her) rearview mirror just so you can justify how you feel based on how goofy they look.
Then a small bag with one item is passed through the window...  and then they pay with a card. Somtimes they sit there looking through the bag to make sure the extra chicken sauce is there. If im alone on this than I have issues.

I had HBO since November 28, 1983(when cable finally came to our part of the city) but just canceled it last week. Too many awful new movies, I think being forced to watch "Jonah Hex" and "Your Highness" was a final straw. And most of their new series blow. The "Namath" documentary was good though.

Changing to daylight savings (which is for the summer months) before winter is even officially over is just weird...  :o

Arizona and Indiana have the right idea. It's time to scrap this antiquated practice, especially since it's backwards. It would make more sense to fall back in the spring and spring forward in the fall since the days are longer in the summer and shorter in the winter, and we no longer base our economy on agriculture when this practice started. Romney would win the presidency if he promised to end daylight savings time.

What is it with these radio spots from oddly-named organizations who claim they aren't endorsed by any candidate, yet they clearly are endorsing or attacking a particular candidate.  Fucking annoying.

I bet that they hold their main meetings during leap years too. They just want us to *think* that there's a missing day in February.

I hate walking into a store and having every stupid ass employee say something like- "Hello how are you?" or some such.  It reminds me of Noory's phony ass, ball-washing, "How are youuu?"

Screw you and your hellos and how can I help yous.  If I want to hear your ass speak I'll ask.  In the meantime, just be paid to shut up.  If I had a job like yours I'd kill  myself.

This is required by management, not at the store level where they occasionally have more sense but at the corporate level.  They have studies (I suspect very poorly designed studies) saying this makes customers happy.  Write to the company’s headquarters and tell them it bothers you.  You will be doing yourself and the employees a favor.  The employees are graded on whether or not they follow these “greet every customer” policies and can even be fired if they do not comply.

Pisses me off when you're at one of these places and someone actually does help you and then when you go to tip them they tell you their overlords don't let them take tips.  Really?  You just loaded two tons of feed into a shit-encrusted stock trailer.  Shut up and take it, buddy.

I hate how Italian women are completely insane but I'm still strangely attracted to them.

Three figure of speech atrocities:


"Do your due diligence."
"Did a solid."
"Good on ya."


"Did a solid" is something your dog does on the carpet.

In case I have not mentioned it before now- I hate contractors and professionals.  There is no way in hell that anybody should go to school for 4 years to learn a trade and come out knowing less and being less competent than when they went in.  At the moment, electricians in particular have hit my "shit list."  $100/  hour where I live and they are placing two wires under the screw in a breaker, strip too far back so that there is 1/4 inch of bare wire behind a wire nuts on a 347V system and run T-8 bulbs off of T-12 ballasts.  Really, the list just goes on (that was all found yesterday.)  After installing 2 new fixtures they ran T-12 bulbs in the T-8 ballasts (T-12 fixtures have not been available for a year now and they are still not sure what bulb to put in a new fixture???) and put a 110V ballast in our 347V wiring last month.


I'm done for now... next week will be a rant on general contractors followed by fire protection "experts."

Companies that buy once-legendary brand names hoping to cash in even when the entity creating the original brand is long gone.


Case in point: Commodore and Amiga.  They've both come out with odd little machines bearing the old brand names that really are little more than Linux boxes.  If something's dead, let it die: you're just going to tick off the original crowd and confuse those who weren't around to enjoy it the first time.
