I'm not sure either . English is not my native language so I invented it.I'm not sure if "conspirationists" is a word

I know that many things are hidden from us, that the governments could spy on each one of us through our "connected devices" if they wanted. It is not that I am not open minded, but flat earth? chem trails? Anyone who doesn't have to wipe his chin of spit every thirty seconds knows that this is BS. There are far easier methods to poison people. Why put chems in planes and not in car fuel? Or in water supplies?
What angers me is the complete lack of logic and serious thinking.
However, here's a real peeve - thanks to absurdly stringent standards, you cannot get a good-tasting burger anymore from Wendy's, Ronnie Mac's Steakhouse, or anywhere except hardees, and they're usually so hard to eat, you don't bother (ridiculously large, and too much stuff piled on). They irradiate the beef until they actually have to add beef flavoring in order to right things, or so I read.

I mean, really, take a look at that ugly patty on your Big Mac. It's revolting, isn't it?
Does it HAVE to be this hard?
Make sure to tell the lovely fraulein that you are AK MEMBER OF THE YEAR!! I hear that's instant panty remover. I probably hear incorrectly, tho.
As for flat earth: Shaquille O'Niel on his podcast last weekend ranted about the earth being flat. He's driven from Florida to California and it looks flat to him. Refuses to believe China is underneath us. All that gravity stuff? It's BS. Shaq's either a lot more gullible than I thought, or he's trolling us.
This abuse of language is so ubiquitous now that it's pretty much common usage and I've given up bitching about it. Still pisses me off, though.People saying 'could care less'. The saying is 'couldn't care less'.
I had nearly exactly this conversation (less the pithy observations about "cord length" ) with myself yesterday while wrapping the cord around my Oreck mini shop-vac. No matter how carefully you wrap it, you always have to clip the plug on a corner.Here's mine!!!!!!!!!! When you go to roll up the vacuum cleaner cord. You take a little bit of time to untangle it, wrap ever so nicely around those cord holder deelies. When all of a sudden you come to the point that it's time to clip the cord on to its self using the clip/pinchy deal on the back of the plug. This is it right here, this is the point, don't miss it. You can not clip the cord on to its self because you can't clip it at the top or bottom because you are at the corner. If the cord was six inches longer (thats what she said) or shorter (never had that problem) everything would be fine and it would clip to its self.

I'm with you there. I finally bought a vacuum cleaner that ends where you can snap it on the cord in the middle. I'm seriously considering sending a thank you note to the company.
People saying 'could care less'. The saying is 'couldn't care less'
Drivers who don't indicate on roundabouts what their intentions are- are we mind-readers?
Cars with faulty brake lights.
Weather broadcasts that are meaningless 'chance of rain' 'mainly sunny' '60% chance of rain' 'possible thunderstorms'. I reckon they have a big wheel they spin in the meteorological office to come up with that crap.
People who speed through school zones at school times.
Windows 10 doing updates when I want to either a) use my computer or b) turn it off and go out.
Losing a screw or nut and having to go through the vacuum bag outside with fine dust going everywhere. (I now keep a neodymium magnet in the vac bag to catch all the things I suck up) Then I find I didn't suck it up at all- it's still on my bench...
Going into the supermarket to buy three things and forgetting one of them until I walk outside and get in my car.
People who drive cars around in the dark with no lights on, just completely OBLIVIOUS to their surroundings
Also, news programs that pick up on some trivial piece of "news" and cover it for several days.News programs where the reporters interview little children just because they're there, who don't have a clue what they're talking about.
