02. Poor Customer Service Skills If you chose to work in the customer service industry, learn the skills. I’m not just talking about saying Thank You, it really is an art.
03. Stoners those who need to get stoned to function (different than medicinal)
04. Dog Shit on Sidewalks Your dog comes with the same digestive system you have! You eat, you shit and you don’t leave it hanging around.
05. Torontonians I have chosen to live here 15 yrs ago, I do my best to keep my space clean, I play by the rules, I work for the city and am proud of it… but too many people just crashed here, aren’t proud of their city, aren’t good ambassadors. No wonders we sink in the eyes of the world a little bit more each year… it’s embarrassing really
06. System Abusers People who “misuse” the services offered to them really burn my ass… humm, like this chick who got a doctor’s note so she could go on vacation and use a sick leave instead of vacation days… I burnt holes in my pants my ass was so burning… Like the guy who “grieved” his manager because they suddenly changed his hours at work and he “can’t” drive in regular rush hour… Yep, that smell is also my ass burning
07. Hospitals I truly believe monkeys could run hospitals better… my parents have lived through such horror stories in the last few years
08. Burglars Burglars: Stop using crack, get a job and buy your own fucking stuff
09. Bad Manners People forget that you can get so much further ahead with a simple Thank You or Please
10. Sidewalks In Toronto, or anywhere else for that matter, learn how to share the sidewalks. You are not alone!
11. Nosey Knowzitall Could there be anything more annoying than someone who kneeds to know everyone’s business, must always put his nose where it doesn’t belong, gives you advises on everything they hear you talk about? Everyone has a Nosey Knowzitall in their life, let’s send them all a big F. U.!
12. Feet Shuffling I cannot stand people who walk either in front, behind or beside me while not being able to lift those tiny adorable feet of theirs, it drives me absolutely nuts! If the shoes are too heavy, buy lighter ones, if the sandals don’t stick to your feet, they’re either too big or too cheap… Get glue – Or – find another sidewalk please!
13. The Oh-My-God-I’m-SO-Happy-All-The-Time bubbly person No one is always totally happy, get out of my face… I just know they go home, eat a tub of ice cream and cry themselves to sleep every night… and yes, you’re fat too.
14. Drunk Drivers Have you ever heard of anything more useless? Seriously, the thought of hanging them by their ballsack still sound too soft
15. Ignorant audiences at movie theatres those talking out loud, using cell phones, standing up and not moving while credits are rolling, eating popcorn loudly during a quiet scene
16. Hecklers I understand performers like to feel the audience is alive, but laughter and applause often suffice. If you wanted to direct the show and tell them how it’s done, you should’ve gotten involved before the show started. Oh, and Shut the Fuck Off!
17. Misspelling My Name Repeatedly I can understand once or twice because you don’t know the difference between Michel boy and Michelle girl, but if I’ve corrected you please pay attention… I may act like a girl at times, but I’m not one… And what’s wrong with looking up the employee list to see the correct spelling of a name before you send them notes, I do it all the time otherwise my boss’s german name would sounds more like a tropical drink
18. Smile!!! If I seem in a serious or bad mood to you, don’t tell me to smile, it’s really REALLY really not going to help. Would you ask me to cry if you saw me in a good mood???
19. Profiting I don’t really get why some people won’t do something unless they make money out of it, won’t help someone unless they get paid…
20. Recommendations Some are good, some aren’t, that’s how it is. Everyone is different and will like different things… Why do some people get so bent out of shape when you disagree with theirs? Just because you liked something doesn’t mean the entire world has to… gosh! Relaxi-o!
22. Vandalism It’s too often because people are jealous of what they can’t get for themselves, so might as well destroy others’ belongings
24. Hummers Nothing worst than a little song bird humming a tune no one recognize or even worse: over an already bad song… Hummers shut up!!!
25. The Advisor You know the one that feels compelled to “assist” you without ever having asked them their opinion… ever!
27. Ignorant Smokers Those who puff in my face, flick their butts all over, dirty the neighbourhood… oh man, why not just quit already!
28. Toronto Traffic Does the entire city, plus the 76 neighbouring towns all need to drive around at the same time???
29. Homeless Problem Downtown I don’t mean to sound uncaring, but as someone once said to me: If you can say “spare change?”, you can say “welcome to McDonald”
30. Rude Torontonians I’m one of them, I see the irony in the statement, but I try to be a good citizen, I help people when I can, I say sorry if I bump into them, I’ll buy food instead of giving money to a homeless, I hold doors open for people behind me, I push the “door open” button on the elevator if I see someone rushing towards them, etc. I’m a Torontonian, but I’m not an asshole
32. High Crime Level In A Big City There are times that living in a big city makes me uneasy… all the guns, the crimes, the drugs are way too rampant, life can be very cheap to certain individuals and they are not afraid to end it for anybody else…
33. Terrorism Sometimes I do feel that the terrosists have won. I hate having visions of destruction, bombings, etc… but 9/11 did leave a major imprint on a lot of us.
37. Own-Little-World You know the ones that don’t seem to realize that you don’t talk out loud at a funeral, you don’t wash yourself in a sink in a public bathroom, you don’t taste food and put it back in a buffet line, etc.
39. Minding Your Own Business I realize most times people do that is because they would want to be helpful, but seriously, if you’re not asked the question, don’t answer, it’s none of your beezwax unless you’re brought in the conversation. Plus, 95% of the times, the suggestion is just crap. I will come up with tons of ideas to let you know I wasn’t talking to you.
40. Technology that won’t last Why is it that when you buy new things, they pressure you to buy the store warranty for an extra 2 or 3 yrs? Is your store really proud of selling crap that won’t last?
42. Bullies Is there anything less useful in life than people trying to force themselves on other just because they are handicapped with a small penis, small mind, no intelligence?
43. Appointments / Meetings When you make an appointment or arrange for a meeting, keep your end of the bargain – or at least cancel in advance… not showing up should be punished by law
44. Gouging When you go to an event, amusment park, festival, desolate space, and they know they have you captive and will charge you an arm and a leg for anything… hum, say like Toronto International Film Festival with their $20 movie tickets!
45. One-Uppers The ones who always have something better than you, know someone better than you, have dones something better than you… you know who I mean
49. Ordering Me Around Ordering me around is the one way to not get me to do something
50. Fashion Such a touchy subject. I know everyone has his/her own style, that’s good, but for the love of god, dress your age… nothing worst than a 50 yr old dressed up like a 15 yr old. In either sex…
51. Doors I never get close to a door hoping, wishing, thinking someone will open it for me or hold it for me, why do you???? Dead are the days when “gentlemen” hold doors for others, every “gentleman” for themselves I say.
52. Rogers Home Phone We have all our services through Rogers and everything works perfectly, except for Home Phone, they just don’t seem to get it, it’s certainly not ready for mass consumption and they have now been put on their last warning, one more call for a technician will be for him/her to pick up the modem on the sidewalk
54. Unclean Manners At The Gym It’s easy, you get a clean machine, you wipe it when you’re done… You don’t leave your dirty towels on the floor, you don’t leave your crap on the counter when done with them, you wipe the area around the sink when you’re done shaving and have splashed enough water to drown a baby around it…
55. Large Stores The ones that sacrifice service for lower price. I am positive there is a way to have buying power, low prices -AND- good customer service. I’m really tired of the “Sir, if you’re not happy, get out of the way and leave, there’s another customer behind you” attitude.
60. Small Stores I understand making a living is harder when you have a small store and compete with the big guys, but why not be even extra nicer to your customers to assure that they return in the future?
64. Fish Smell Not that I like shit smell any better, but fish smell has a way of turning my stomach. Although I can deal with sushi quite easily.
67. Baby Talk “You’re my snoogum moogaly boobaly schmoops” “No, you’re my schnoogy booby poopsy beebee”… Huh? What the fuck kind of shit talk is this… if I translate it says: “Get a life asshole and learn English”.
68. Finger Talk Those whose clever way of arguing is giving the middle finger.
70. Holiday Shopping The lengths that people will go to for “that” special gift: push, run over, yell, fight, all the while not trying to mess up their hairdo. I’m surprise we haven’t declared 2 christmases / year, it would only help the malls…
71. Party Poopers Those so miserable they’d rather spend energy trying to stop other people’s fun… think Accounting Clerks
72. Ignor-a-trons Ignorant patrons of the YMCA who treat the place like a discarded kleenex
74. Judging a book by its cover I’m sometimes guilty of that myself, I must admit, but I hate when people judge others because of the way they look
75. Electric Scooters For those who REALLY need them, good on you for having a good way of getting yourself around. To those too fat and lazy to walk anywhere, get in fucking line behind me and stop asking me to move out of the way, lazy fat asses
79. NoFrills / ValueMart Or the likes of you… if I need to pay for my bags, I don’t want to shop at your broke-ass-stores. Thank you Loblaws for the semi-class and certainly the cleanliness you bring to the game
80. Couples Dressing Alike There’s nothing cute, I don’t care the age, about having people dressed with the same clothes… on purpose! I was mortified when my parents came to see me in a show wearing matching His and Hers summer outfits.
86. Sequels That Don’t Measure Up If you write a book or make a movie that is beloved, why change the formula for the sequel, just because you get jaded or bitter, doesn’t mean we have to suffer Mr. Author or Mr. Director.
87. Feeding pigeons You don’t feed rats, why the hell feed pigeons, they are the exact same diseased ridden animal except they have wings and feathers instead of tail and fur
88. Dust So annoying, you clean, vaccum, sweep… and moments later, it comes back… is there anything less useful in life?
89. Uninvited Guests If you’re not invited, why force yourself in… it’s clear you’re not wanted, and if the invitation did in fact get lost in the mail, well, go complain to Canada Post, not me.
90. Tim Hortons’ Service in Toronto It just sucks to have to repeat your order so many times, it’s almost a battle to get a coffee and a bagel. It doesn’t help that most workers don’t really speak English. And would it kill anyone to smile and look like they might like what they do???
91. Taking Advantage When a business takes advantage of a situation / event to double their profit
93. Fist Fights Leave that to the animals, show your strenght by using your words, much funnier in the end.
94. Dirty Neighbhours Some people have no concerns at all about the way their living space looks, they don’t care that a dirty yard reflects badly on their person. In my area there are many different little neighborhoods that reflect badly because the people act like pigs, not everyone living in Jamestown is a pig, not everyone living in Moss Park is a pig, not everyone living in Regent Park is a pig, the their neighbours make it look so.
97. Unimaginative Sequels the type of sequels that are made just to cash in on the fact that the first movie / book made money… Think Jaws 4, Beverly Hills Cop 2, Any Police Academy (including the first one)… that type of waste.
98. Facebook a fad that needs to die, especially while at work… If I wanted to keep in touch with high school mates, I’d still live at home
99. Stupid People and their stupid comments that no one needs to hear. They could solve the world’s problem with a make-over or some new dance they invented… stupid people with stupid conversations with stupid ideas
100. Embarrassing Myself in Public I like a good joke, but I hate being the joke… I can be from saying the wrong thing, to tripping, to walking with my zipper down, to doing cartwheel in hallways and knocking the picture frames from the wall down… although that was pretty funny in itself
101. Where’s Lavagirl? just don’t… really, how old are you?
