You mean like complaining where the local high schools hold their graduations?
No, I mean going to that hole of suck called Showplace Arena and spending damn close to $80K for graduation for 4 high schools.

Novel idea, have graduation at the school. Yeah, then kids wouldn't be able to invite their next door neighbor's 3rd cousin's 2nd wife, but who gives a ####.

Just thought of another one. Those woman who are at a bar or wedding reception and take their shoes off and walk around and dance barefoot. Ew!

Just as a point of interest, where did they hold the graduations before the Showplace Arena was built? My kids weren't in High School then.


My Graduation in 1984 was at the Capital Center .... in Largo

1972 Gravel Pit @ the Stone Quarry. Mr. Slate was there to hand out diplomas and :yahoo: all the grads. No audio problems there, Fred was the commencement speaker.


Good morning all.

:coffee:


On topic:

People that drive through residential areas WITHOUT turning their music down. So disrespectful, its not like you can't hear the same song later.

People that pull up and hit the horn a half dozen times for someone that is obviously waiting for them. Watch out the window and tell your guest not to hit the horn. Better yet, have them get their lazy butt out of the car and knock on the door. grrrr!!!!!

I loathe restaurants that have "haricot vert" on the menu. It's freaking green beans, you faux snob wannabe.

I also don't like when they call mayonnaise "aoli".

Mayo and Aoli are not the same - the terms aren't (or shouldn't be) interchangeable.

Unless you're saying they are calling something aoli that tastes no different than mayo

They call me ... Sarcasmo
Waitresses skimming loose change thinking you can't add or subtract. Oh, that's after they ask you if you need change after paying for 2 drinks with a 20.

Social experiment: watching you wear heels next time you go out.
If im wearing heels i dont take them off. But if im going to a bar to dance i wear tennis shoes so my feet are comfy. Theres nothing worse then a sloppy drunk and they are wearing heels and cant walk so they take em off. If you know your gonna get smashed dont wear heels.

Redneck high heel remover here! :howdy: But not because I'm drunk, because heels are uncomfortable and I can't express myself :dye: on the dance floor in them.

People who get mad at you when you refuse to let them over when they continue to drive in a lane till it ends instead of merging before.

Ugh, I hate those oblivions. You give them space - come on, dummy, get over - and they ignore you. So you go, fine, and close the gap, which is when they decide that they desperately need to get over NOW!

Frig 'em. Pay attention next time.

people who can't merge --- heading across the solomon's bridge to work, there are people trying to get off the island on to the bridge. I flash my lights, slow down, practically wave a sign, "c'mon, i'm letting you in, you have 10 cars behind you...".

and yet, they sit there.

Folks that flick lite cigarettes butts out their car windows.
How about regular and menthol?
So.

Help me understand why the county would spend all that money on cute brick median strips, then not maintain them so that weeds and trees (some of them a foot high) can grow up in the cracks and destroy them?
Graft and corruption.
Some favored contractor got the bid and then did the work with illegals and made a healthy campaigain donation with the profits. It's a democrat SOP

Idiots that think a merge in 1000 ft sign means merge now.
They're probably the same people that think you should wait to the last minute to get into the right turn lanes on 235
