Junk Drawer: Pet peeves edition 3/28/09

PrintIts been over a year since Philthyanimal posted on the biggest Blazer pet peeves, so in his honor, and to give our regular JD contributors a break, here is my attempt at the record.
In looking back at Philthyanimals poll, fond memories are vividly recalled, i.e. Jarrett Jack stepping out of bounds, Holtonisms (well, those memories are all too often refreshed) and Bo Outlaw references.
Since its all junk today, your pet peeves need not be entirely Trail Blazer inclusive. The season is winding down, and there is a likely to moderate chance of elevated stress levels as the team grinds out wins or succumbs to bitter defeats.
My hope is by getting that pet peeve off your chest and out in the open, their will be more Trail Blazer energy in your psyche to root root root our boys to the finish line and into the playoffs.
I'll start this out. It really bothers me when I'm driving and approach a 4 way intersection and stop at the same time as another vehicle on my right, to whom I give a "its your turn, go ahead please" wave, and they look back at me and shake their heads "No" and proceed to wave me through. Oh, that makes me so mad. I'm trying to be courteous, and follow the rules and keep traffic moving, and YOU JUST SCREWED IT UP! Why do they do that? Are they trying to out-do my niceity? "After you", "No, after you", "No, after you, I insist", "Please, after you." GRRRR!!!!
Go Trail Blazers!!

I actually have the exact opposite view, probably for the same reasons though...
………………………. I subscribe to the belief by Learned Academic Teetotling Gardner fellow (thread on BEdge this last week) that sports fans are “nationalism writ small.” And the more wrapped up in their little phony wars against their “enemies” from other franchises, the less likely sports fans are to become obsessed with “nationalism writ large” and real wars…
Of course, the airhead Li’l Bush sort of defeated my theory and Mr. Continuity We Can Believe In isn’t doing anything at all to change that (announces escalation of the American intervention in Afghanistan) — so I might be wrong.
Still, I think team obsessions actually LESSEN rather than increase the effectiveness of American militarism.
It’s a WAR in the trenches!

sports is definitely the substitute for war
not to take anything away from the real soldiers, but could you imagine sending our most elite athletes into battle? I mean the 6’7" 295 4.2 sec/40 yd guys…would cut down on number of weapons needed…I mean if Randy Johnson threw the grenade at you, would it need to explode or would it kill you anyway…
Right now I feel the GangBanger ==> soldier recruitment movement should be pushed…..organized armored driveby’s…with air support….pow pow pow…

If Grand Theft Auto

My current pet peeve: my balky hamstrings. I have zero confidence in all-out sprinting right now because it seems like I pull something every time I do, and then I’m back on the shelf for 5-7 days. Does anybody have a regimen that they follow for hammies from their own experience? I’m in bad need of some assistance.

flexor muscles (like the hamstrings) with fire incessantly
when there is an over-stimulation of the sympathetic portion of the autonomics – - – ie stuck in fight-or-flight mode….the thing that fixes this most consitently is vit b5 (pantothenic acid) us about 150mg/day….helps the body produce acetylcholine which supports parasympathetic activity (ie fought/flew all is A-Ok)…
Also strengthening the opposing muscles (in this case the quadriceps) will help the hamstrings to relax…

You are not that important. The company doesn’t fail without you talking to someone/checking your mail in the next 5 minutes.
That's related to one of my pet peeves
Doctors who call in prescriptions while a) behind me in the movies or b) sitting next to me at the pizza place. I now know which antidepressant my neighbor is using. Thanks Doc!
hmm, I have never in my life seen/heard that happen
you must have some vibe about you that makes the docs want to impress you.
Oh I made an impression on them
I’m usually pretty quiet around strangers, but I called these guys out. The second time was post-HIPPA, which is even more amazing to me.
funny you mentioned that
I was getting a pizza recently and some guy was talking to or about one of his clients while in a line of people, and I turned around with a few more decibals to my voice asked him “aren’t you concerned about that person’s confidentiality?” The guy stepped out of line after mad-dogging me and left.
Several people in line said thanks for having the courage to tell that moron.

Pet peeves change over time (and are not necessarily related to pets, duh). As for NBA/Blazers/BE related peeves:
- League pass broadband not always working like a paid product should. Occasionally games not set up correctly to start . And especially freezing/“buffering” at the most interesting moment. The problem is on your side NBA/Turner Broadcasting, I have about the fastest Internet connection known to consumer mankind outside of Japan/South Korea where they have crazy wide pipes.
- People asking questions that they could answer themselves in under 30 seconds by using Google. Or by reading at least most of the thread. Or questions that they should know nobody can answer with any certainty.
- Announcers/analysts not bothering to learn anything about the opposing team – although that is almost half their job. Such as how to pronounce the name of a player even remotely correct.
And some general pet peeves:
- People (especially politicians) talking with certainty about things you instantly know they have not the faintest idea of
- People sitting in and holding up meetings that have no stake in this meeting. You don’t have anything else to do?
- Products that are so badly designed you know the designer/engineer/developer never really tested them with real humans in real situations. They are everywhere. E.g. I know airport turnstiles that you can’t get through with luggage. High entertainment value to observe other people trying to hurdle and shot-put stuff over them, little fun when you have to do it. Good job guys!
- To that effect: Windows. I’m still amazed that Americans who sue everyone over everything that goes wrong accept such a flawed product in their daily life. Sorry Paul. And having to install anti virus software and such is like paying money to the mafia so they don’t trash your store. A solution to a problem that shouldn’t exist to begin with.

Bonzi change
well, the tail had to be changed from going straight out left to curving underneath so my buddy who does customized embroidery can fit the image more aesthetically onto a hat and other Bonzi-gear. The red background was also problematic to the design.
I use cheapo Word paint for my cat depictions and the fill option didnt completely fill in the red background after painstakenly erasing all the red. I haven’t have the gumption to take the time to refill every white part of the halo around his body.

Tough one. There’s an increasing feeling that OSX would likely have just as many attack vendors if it had 90% of the market… it’s as much a market share problem as anything. People will always attack the product with the largest market share.
With your average linux desktop, there will always be vulnerabilities found, but they’re typically fixed much faster. That may eventually be Microsoft’s true downfall. (Apple is often slower than Microsoft, too). Three more generations of Ubuntu improvements (and they’re making fast progress), then one more major, nasty worm that smacks Windows with data loss or theft, and it’ll send people running to a free product.
(Full disclosure: I’ve got Windows, Linux and OSX in the house, and administered Windows for years, including cross-interaction with Linux and OSX.)

Traffic related pet peeve
As a Pedestrian …I hate cars that stop and wait for me to cross. Counter-intuitive i know. Usually when I am trying to cross the street there is minimal traffic and most times I just have to pause a moment (or even just slow down)for the car to pass but the fool stops….which makes me have to stop (to make sure he is really stopping and not just slowing down). Portland recently passed a law that you have to stop for peds which makes this worse. Now no one know the rules at all. When I am driving people just stroll out into traffic ….even when I have the green at an intersection and they have a “don’t walk” signal. When I am a ped and am trying to cross a multilane oneway street and some yahoo stops for me and starts waving me across when there are 3 more lanes of rushing traffic. I am like going “No thanks..I choose not to die today” and he still waving “come on …come on” …and I want to flip off this good semaritin (sp) ….arrggg

crosswalk peeve
I hear that. What really irks me is when waiting for pedestrians to cross they take their sweet time, sometimes doing circles around their friends, pausing to decide where they are going as if my getting through the intersection to where I’m going is totally irrelevent to their particular moment in time.
I AM A PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS SUPPORTER.
yeah right
You’re sitting on your butt in you car in a hurry to get somewhere and upset because they’re walking a bit to slow. Pssssh welcome to my pet peeve. Drivers with no sense of relativity.
What do they need? Nothing. I think they have it all. -Shaq
I almost caused a lady to get hit by a car
The street by my house is 4 lanes and a lady was across the street from me. Traffic on her side of the street was going but my side was stopped so her side could make left turns. I decided to walk to the middle section because I knew I could cross next. When the lady across the street saw me walking, she started walking and a car had to slam on his brakes to avoid hitting her. sSe gave me stink eye once she made it to the middle.
I was working in a bowling alley years ago
It was a Saturday and Senior Leagues were about to start. A nice old lady came in using her walker (the kind with the wheels on the front of it) ….she was a regular in there so I waved to her as she was approaching the desk (she was about 15 feet away). She pulled 1 hand off her walker to wave back…which caused her walker to start going in a circle ….the look on her face was hilarious and I started laughing..luckily she got it back under control and she also laughed. It wouldn’t have been as funny if she fell down a broke a hip ( I am just guessing on that last part…it might have been even funnier)

that happens on my bike
(someone waves me across when there are three other lines of traffic flying by)
And on my bike I don’t even have the right of way.
I’ve taken to staring off into space so they can’t possibly make eye contact with me and eventually they give up.
I am on my bicycle at a stop sign acting like a vehicle
Waiting for the last car on the through street to pass by. The car slows and then comes to a unnecessary stop to allow me to cross. C’mon, if you had kept going you’d be out of my way. Now I gets to ride in front of your ton+ machine controlled by a person who makes bad decisions and doesn’t know the traffic laws. Maybe they wanna see my glutes as I stand up and pedal by.

Some cities run police stings where a plain-clothed cop is at the curb, waiting to use a crosswalk. If the driver doesn’t stop, there’s a cop just past the crosswalk, waiting to pull you over.
Even if a pedestrian is waving a driver through, while it is courteous (I appreciate it), it’s still technically illegal for the driver to pass over the crosswalk.
Just a random thought on why some people refuse to let you wave them. They know it could be a trap, or really know the law.
A law that that runs counter to common sense
is most likely a bad one

And another pet peeve. I could well imagine a career in medicine, but that's just stupid
Of course plastic surgery has its purpose for which most procedures were invented in the first place, in order to correct real physical or at least psychologically problematic defects. Yet operating rich people for mostly imaginary problems is a rather useless job. I don’t care how much money or “fame” it brings.

I know a craniofacial surgeon, who was educated partly in the US
He also does both, nose jobs/chin/cheek implants and “real” problems. Also pro bono abroad. But he wouldn’t do those “Hollywood” procedures or grotesque multi-over-operations or operate on body parts he knows not enough about.

Yes, I want my illegal stream NW commercials back!

My Favorite Hates
(apologies to Rodgers & Hammerstein)
Lakers and Celtics and fans who adore them
Idiot refs are a sure path to boredom
BEdgers who think they know better than Nate
These are a few of my favorite hates
Owners who steal teams while David Stern smiles
Everything having to do with D. Miles
Kobe and KG are players who grate
These are a few of my favorite hates
When our team bites
When a loss stings
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember we’re gonna win rings
And then I don’t feel… so bad!

Right now, my pet peeve is
Having a knee injury stopping me from playing basketball. I didn’t realise my patella tendon was injured, I continued to reinjure it over a period of three or more months and now there are cists located in the tendon that flare up during exercise. The tendon is mostly healed but the cists make me unconfident due to the pain.
Need to dig into my dad’s private health insurance to resolve the problem through sound wave treatment at some point. But I’m not sure when that can happen.

People who over-pronunciate words
For example: in my field of work, we talk about car accidents a lot. One of the people in the office insists on pronouncing the word “vehicle” as “vee-hic-le.” Normal peoplejust leave the “hi” silent, and say it as “veicle”. But no, this person just HAS to have the “hi” in it.

TV Weatherpeople
Can we just eliminate this position? What other job can you be usually wrong and still get paid? Many parts of the country don’t need one most of the time. The regular anchorpeople should give us one or two lines about current weather and tomorrow’s weather, and move on to more sports coverage. TV Meteorologists should only get a segment if there is impending weather-related doom coming….otherwise my internet browser gives me a reasonable weather forecast.

How about the “on location” storm reporters? It’s snowing, and we could just look out the window and tell you that, but we send an entire crew outside for an “authentic” shot. The real snow in the background is important because we are going to use this as a teaser for the whole show, with brief mentions and tiny pictures above the anchors left ear of the actual “on location” shot.

Here's two of mine
1) Michael Lufkin-absolutely horrible, “partner”;
2) Sportcasters who can’t do math. The Blazers are 45-27. Every supposedly knowledgeable sports talking head says we’re 18 games over .500. Not so! After 72 games, .500 would be 36-36, right? So, we’re 9 games over .500, not 18. This drives me crazy.
this seems wrong somehow. i mean, if we lost 9 in a row, we wouldn't be at .500.
if we were 27-27, and then won 18 games in a row, wouldn’t that make us 18 games over .500?
Theists think all gods but theirs are false. Atheists simply don't make an exception for the last one.
I agree with that
If you are 51 and 31, you are 20 games over .500… not 10 games over .500, which is 41 wins.
If you have 20 more wins than losses, you gotta lose 20 games to get back to a .500 record. Thus, 20 games over .500.

Facebook doesn’t actively bother me, because I purely use it to keep track of friends and their whereabouts, but not as an actual social function in itself. If I don’t have a good face-to-face relationship with a person, they don’t get added.
For this purpose, it works pretty well.
any comment that gets deleted
whether it’s just attached to another that happens to get deleted, or a whole thread, saddens me. does it mess up your comment count, or does it still count, like a ghost comment?

"Is there a twin to that baby still stuck inside you?"
When is that one due? I don’t think it’s healthy to let one baby out and keep the twin stuck inside you, both for the baby and the mother.
Is it to avoid celebrating two b-days on the same day? Even still… just get the other baby out, it’ll make your belly smaller.

I got that all the time the years I spent living in Vancouver (Washington, not Canada)
My mother is from Central America and I’m black, so I always got “Are you adopted?” or “Is that your babysitter?” It embarrassed one of my sisters enough to not want my mother to ever come to her school for any kind of function or conference. Fortunately my mother is responsible and ignored such requests. Also, nobody ever remembered the country my mother is from, which is Panama. Man sentences started with “Wait, you’re part Mexican, right?”

Mostly I just try to get the kids in trouble. Teach the cuss words or tell ones in diapers to wipe their poo on people.
Depends on the adult conversation
It’s it about boners, as such, then I’d say “okay kids go out and play”, but if it’s about non-weiner based topics, I say let the kids learn and breathe in the stimulating conversation.

my girl's cat did that
and it pet peeved me for some reason so now he has a water dish in the bathroom close to the toilet and he goes for that instead.

She prefers her water directly from the source. And she’ll knock everything off the counter until she gets it. It’s ok until water restrictions start popping up.
Laws of nature:
The indoor cat will stop at nothing to get out.
The outdoor cat will stop at nothing to get in.
A cat with a choice can’t make up her mind.
We have both outdoor and indoor cats. The indoor cats used to be permanently indoor, but now we let them come and go. The outdoor cats remain permanently outdoor cats. This has thrown the system out of balance, as the outdoor cats were previously repelled by the equal and opposite force of the indoor cats at any cracked doorway.

Got one more: Video games that don't let me save the game while I'm on a mission when I want
So I have to repeat the whole thing over and over again instead of just from a certain part/room. I’m looking at you, GTA IV and Force Unleashed. How come super-expensive development projects still fail to handle that accurately?
In other news, I played the new 50 Cent video game. It’s kinda fun in coop mode, but over very quickly (less than a day for the main story) and I hope it was intended to be so over the top and idiotic in the dialogues (which are somewhat repetitive). Otherwise they would take themselves much too serious. Sometimes it feels like being on a shooting range. It’s basically Gears of War with black people and rap music. My favorite storyline element was when 50 calls in some hookers to distract guards, and instead of waiting for his sinister plan to come to fruition he blows up the limo where the girls are arriving in for even better distraction. What? Can’t wait to see mainstream talk shows to run amok about that.

Me and a friend found some cheap soft-core magazines that probably a trucker had thrown away in a ditch. Don’t know how old we were, but too young to really understand what was going on. Still we were curious, and I remember we looked through them, laughed about the captions and then buried them in the woods. A few years later when I had a better grasp of what that was I wanted to dig them out again. Never found them. I would have to ask my friend if he dug them out some time, or if they are still there somewhere wrapped in a plastic bag :)

Well, some stuff once they’re a teen, okay, but I ain’t worried about the porn stuff. It’s the REAL darkness of the internet that will destroy young minds who can’t filter and process it that I worry about.

i have two computers
one with bsafe (blocks junk and reports to your accountability partner) and another that’s wide open and lets you go anywhere, but sends a report of where you’ve been to an “accountability partner.”
bsafe costs like 40 a year or something….the other one that just reports is free…… called XXXchurch or something. It works pretty good.
I’m not a porn guy, and I think a huge part of not going there is having accountability with someone. I’d rather save my eyes for my wifey.

stuff for sexual content for my kids and they are both doing just fine, honors graduate from college, going to grad school, normal sex lives. Don’t sweat it, it’s only sex.
I've been doing the classic linksys wrt54g with dd-wrt setup.
Works well, speedy enough. Haven’t needed to use the filter functions yet, so I figured it’s good to know what else is out there.
your wife needs to become a Bedger
so she can add her pet peeve to the list:
— when Tom pees all over the toilet seat lid
I AM A PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS SUPPORTER.
I lift the lid
One time she said, “Every time you get drunk, you pee on the floor.” Then I said, “You say that every time I get drunk and pee on the floor.”
Now a days, it’s mostly the V-pee and not paying attention to what I am doing. I just went on the shower curtain because I was looking in the medicine cabinet.
Have you tried peeing in the washing machine...
and then telling her it’s really ok because they all drain to the same place?
The cowards never started
The weak died along the way
Only the strong survived
They were the Trailblazers
Nope
I used to have this thing where I would go pee where I shouldn’t. Surprisingly, I’ve never tried the washer.
I had a stage
where I was a pee sleep walker – would sleep walk and pee in the most crazy places, like the couch, with a kid sleeping on it, and didn’t even remember it. Thankfully that stage is behind me…. ( I feel so dirty now )

possibly
the apostrophe at the end notes possession, as in LaMarcus’ means something that belongs to LMA or his personna. If you were referring to something in your previous sentence (or current one) and then referred back to it as “it” then it would be OK. But its’ instead of it’s when you mean “it is” doesn’t work.

It's best that I not get started on them
The removal of analog and forcing either a box or QAM, then trying to encrypt QAM afterward.
Forcing boxes on you in general, otherwise you use cablecard, and they will grudgingly support it.
Poor service, badly compressed channels, and HD channels that barely count as such.
The worst PVR box in the business.
And that’s not even getting into Comcast Sportsnet.

That was my favorite scene in Transformers
When the marines trying to call in an air strike/inform the Pentagon about the attack get in some service hotline because they don’t have the number available. And “Bob” tries to up-sell him a new discount rate or something while the unit is under fire. I could so see that happening.
I missed it Tom, what was your "I'm going to delete this" post about?
Yeah yeah, I don’t know why I’m curious either.
I wrote it and posted 10 comments then deleted the Fanpost and my comment count did not go down
Also Blazers Edge told me I posted too many comments too fast after I posted 10 real quick.
I tried to rec every comment in this thread, on a whim. I had visions of an entirely green page.
After about 20, things slowed to a crawl and I gave up.
Bah…onto loftier pursuits.

Pet peeve
When people on the east coast presume that everyone in oregon is hippie, yuppie, yippie, inbred hick or religious fanatic…
…and are mostly right.
No Joke
I moved to Alabama to Oregon and thought everyone would be a hick and they thought I lived in a log cabin and had bears walking down the streets. Turns out they had about as many hicks in Oregon as they did in Alabama.
True Story
I called a tech support line at work last month, it was in up state NY, and told her I was in Oregon (which she mis-pronounced several times). I set up a call back because their techs were busy, and she asked me what country Oregon was in and what our GMT offset was. I swear to God. I felt like telling her we were a county in Wyoming.

More than one person
Has asked me about changing currency when they visit. One person asked if she could drink the water and if they had “real food like McDonald’s.” That was my wife’s side of the family.
Is the water thing that odd of a question though?
I’ve lived places where we couldn’t drink the water.

Portland played pretty similar both years, actually
But this year, they had a much better opponent.
(Portland played a really bad game against Seattle but still won last year)
I’m not sure what it is about Xmas, or maybe wearing Xmas colors…
i want an alternate grey jersey
when they wear it, roy is in foul trouble, and oden takes guards of the dribble, nailing mid range jumpers.
when people don't walk on the right side of the sidewalk.
and I have to dodge them left and right. Especially here in NYC.

I love the new B.S. report with Bill's old boss John Walsh who helped to develop the ESPN we know today. Smart cookie
http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/simmons/index
Really one of the best discussion he has had on the podcast, talking about what went wrong with the newspaper business and at ESPN. I think he also calls out Hollinger (without naming him) for declaring LeBron prematurely better than Jordan.
I just listened to it
I bet if you asked Simmons, he’d say he wanted more out of Walsh. Simmons had his list and Walsh gave corporate answers for all of the issues.

not sure if this peeve is endemic to the group
but during open game day threads when I hit Z repeatedly to scroll thru comments and nothing happens, so I go to the bottom of the page and the post a comment title bar is all zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I AM A PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS SUPPORTER.
Happens to me all the time. whenever I post a comment, it places the focus on the subject box
No option to turn it off. I just keep ending up with Z’s.
Also, when I’m scrolling through comments, and someone adds a comment above where I’m at, if I click Z, it’ll mark that comment as read, even though it was never even on my screen.
I figure they’re aware of this kinda stuff but have never asked…
That's a problem, but I love that you have the option to tab through the comments with your keyboard
In general the commenting platform on SBN is so much superior of what Yahoo, ESPN & Co. use right now. I could see them licensing that to one of the big guys.
Wow

Scrapbooking
Why in the world would people do it? Your vacation won’t seem more fun if the pictures have a construction paper border with an unusual pattern and stickers saying “fun times” and “family vacation” next to them. Put the pictures in a freaking album if you want them in the same place. The worst is titling incredibly obvious pages in a scrapbook. Like “Graduation” followed strangely enough by some person in a cap and gown holding some sort of piece of paper. We get it!!! What a terrible waste of time and money.

I’m in the opposite mode: I’ve seen almost every game this season, minus vacation, but tonight my wife has friends over so I’ll miss it. Good thing I have a PVR and can avoid all online stuff until I watch it later tonight.
It’s movie night here. We have a couple non-native friends, so we’re choosing older (somewhat-classic) movies they haven’t seen. Tonight’s choice is the original “Back to the Future” in almost-full HD.
I've seen every game this year
in person or on TV, going for the record! I’ve never done that before.

They have bumper stickers that say “Or-y-gun.”

San Francisco is a challenge all right.
Lots going-on there, what with the vertiginous hills (some of which are so steep that when you are starting to go down one you cannot see anything but sky in front of your car), the traffic, which includes streetcars, cable cars, and buses; cars parked on literally every inch of every street in much of the city, jaywalkers, and not just one-way streets, which aren’t so bad to deal with, but a confusing mishmash of one-way and two-way streets, some of which have multiple lane markings for all the different types of vehicular traffic. The worst for me is the myriad signs, all of which you must read and understand correctly if you have any hope of reaching your destination with your car, your traffic record, and your life intact.

I haven't hit much in the current generation
I need to start using Pandora, which should be a good way to sniff out stuff I’d like.
however....the flip side is just as bad
I now officially hate Pink Floyd and Led Zep…not because there is anything wrong with them ….but because KGON cannot go 5 mins without playing them. Last night (as it typically goes) I am riding around in the car when I turn on the radio and they are playing a rock block of the Stones….sweet I think…no Floyd or Zep….then it turns out to be the last song of that set and guess what comes on next …..Pink Freakin’ Floyd…for the next 15 mins or so……arrrrrggggsg!

We have a Floyd-and-Zep station here too
The wife is a big Floyd fan, so no complaints when Learning to Fly or Comfortably Numb comes on. But after a while, ugh.
At least the same station also plays Def Leppard and old Bon Jovi. Plus John Mellancamp and Bruce Springsteen. And Styx, but not Mr. Roboto. And Queen.
The new definition of “Classic Rock” can be entertaining. For a short time, they played occasional “modern classics”, like Santana’s recent stuff too. I imagine it ended after all the phone calls and e-mails they got.
Love Floyd
and it’s amazing that it keeps coming back, I know a lot of younger kids that like it also.

Season Tix: Section 315, with my sons
I was driving by a house down the street
and the kids there (8 years old? Guessing) were singing along with Elton John’s “Rocket Man”. I was a little surprised… I wondered how younger ages have a lot more eclectic taste these days.
Part of me thought it was how accessible music is now. Another part of me wonders if the modernization of studio production in the 70’s played a big role. By 1975 or so, production was so clear that it sounds like it could be recorded today. A big difference from a couple generations ago, when older music “sounded old” and was relegated to oldies stations.
Random thoughts.

Watching NCAA still
I’m so used to watching the Ducks that I keep wondering why the teams aren’t taking more 3’s.

It’s the closest thing I have to a University in this tournament after all.
I picked UNC but haven't told Shavlik

It didn't take an hour after moving into my dorm when I was in college before the calls came in
Car insurance and credit card status or something like that. Awful. And wrong customer for these calls.
One relatively new trick that is used in Europe right now always starts with something along the lines of “we want to inform you that your subscription to our lottery service is ending [insert time about a quarter in advance].” They want to get you to give them your bank account information, which I never do over the phone. I suppose once you go along and give them all that you have entered some contract with this service and they will charge your for the remaining months. Or even longer. When you insist that you don’t have a running contract with their company they say that yes you do. They can never produce any evidence of course. It’s both funny and annoying, but I could well imagine senior citizens and gullible people to fall for that.
One company had my old address. I confirmed that this is the right one. Maybe they spam my old landlord now who I didn’t really like :)
One funny thing you can do is game the system by keeping the telemarketer busy with useless talk so they can’t call other people at that time which is most of their compensation (which of course only works if a real human is on the line). They almost all use a script to try to keep you on the line and ultimately close the deal. So a guy from the Netherlands has developed a “counter-script”. Hilarious. Also available in other languages. I have never sent it in, but used it a few times.

There is a link to print it as a PDF so you have it ready next to your phone. Also available in a few other languages.

That’s an honest-to-goodness consumer complaint worthy of a refund. I can’t get past how many people are in this situation. Why does the NBA allow this to happen?
Because they can.

when no one has anything to say to you.....
until you just get out of the room. You hear them say something, but you just couldn’t make it out. So you have to turn around, go back in, and ask what they said. (wife)
Those who don't know their history are doomed to repeat it.
What worse is when you are out of the room
and they call your name, so you say “what?” and they repeat your name again, so you say “what?” a little louder and a little more frustrated. This repeats until you (it never seems to be the person calling your name) walk into the same room and say “what?” and then your wife says “why are you mad?”

Hey, where are you these days? I don’t read the game day threads often because they’ve gotten too big. I hope this huge junk drawer thang is just a phase . . .
Hubby did something to his knee when we were in the Mojave.
He thinks he’s still young enough to act like a mountain goat and tried to climb up to a mesa to see what the ancient local Indian’s view might have been like. We hope he didn’t tear his ACL. He’s being stubborn about doctering but the swelling hasn’t abated yet anyway. I’m rambling but to answer your question we came back to Prescott to wait it out. Hopefully we’ll take off for Big Bend in a week or so to see the spring bloom.

Dang
Hope it’s something that just needs rest. It’s kind of alarming how those minor injuries take a while to heal once you’re past 45, and being on the road must add an extra element of angst to it all. At least you’re not far from good medical help, if you need it.
Never been to Big Bend, but I’ve heard wonderful things about it.
Several years ago he cut his knee open and sewed himself up with a sewing needle
and white thread. I tried to do it for him but I couldn’t penetrate the skin with the needle. He had to jam the needle in and then grab the tip with a pair of pliers and pull it out. He was able to do 4 stitches but it could have used 5. Skin is amazingly tough stuff. It healed beautifully.
If you ever get a chance I highly recommend Big Bend.
