Things That Annoy Me

They’re killing me!

I need to stretch.  Doing about 10 hours of walking per week now.

Waist disappearing though.  But I feel stiff and lethargic from the waist down.

Well, there’s always something.  But I can’t find much to moan about as I’ve kinda ‘accepted’ the weather, idiots on the road and the sloppyness of British society.  For every inadequacy there is a positive exploitative side to a situation.

For instance, you moan that people are stupid, not super clever etc. and make a disorganised mess of things.  But when I go play poker online, it is these not so clever people you want at the table.

We moan about UK tax etc. etc.  but think of this - all gambling winnings are tax free.  100%.  Unlike USA where it’s taxed at 35%. 

We moan about the cost of living, yet most of us have made a pile on property investment. 

We moan about the price of petrol, heating etc. but try buying a computer, ipod or whatever…things are extremely cheap in that department compared to 20 years ago.

So this week, nothing is particularly annoying me…no moaning!

Maybe I’ve touched on this before but Lost has now had a huuuuge break and we won’t see any more till Jan 2008.

From there they promise to run the series start to finish without breaks.

At last….!

It is truly an excellent show….albeit it runs like a Russian bus service in the 80s.

Avid might be the best thing since sliced bread when it comes to DV editing, but I tell you now laddy…it’s a c*nt when importing video.

For UNKNOWN reasons it will freeze at certain points on the tape.  The same points too.  It just throws an over-flow tantrum and you have to reimport past that offending piece of tape.  Sucks.

The above example is extreme.  But it’s something that annoys me, when cars are parked either side and people try to squeeze 4 cars on a 2-lane piece of road.

Not that the parking is the problem, but the afteraffects and potential crashes it causes thereafter.

Anyway, it’s a pet hate, people should park on the pavement or further away for the consideration of others.  Double parking goes without saying it is just crazy, but people do it in city centres.  That is the pits of them all.
