More things I hate
Filed under: General — nobrainer @ 11:34 pm

Yesterday I ran across an old post enumerating things I hate. The list holds up well. Here’s a few more:

  • Toyota – Maybe I’m suffering from an observational bias, but I see a lot of Toyotas on the road at dusk/night without their lights on. Possibly their automated headlight systems suck. And/or possibly Toyota drivers are morons.
  • Nissan – I had Nissan on the top of my list for my next new car. After seeing their ridiculous truck commercials ad nauseum, I now put Nissan on the same level as Government Motors. Seriously, for the stupid shit they show their trucks doing in their commercials, they might as well just say that their trucks fly and emit only fairy dust.
  • Getting an email from my boss at 10PM basically wanting information for first thing in the morning. On a company holiday.

  • Comments on news sites – Any serious news outlet shouldn’t even have comments. If comments are to be allowed, however, they should be kept out of sight. It is almost a near certainty that none of the comments are worth reading anyway. So it is particularly annoying when some tiny, garbage little article comes loaded with 300 useless comments.
