What ticks you off?

Here's one! Water sprouting from the ceiling in the room where I'm using the computer right now due to the snow and rain outside. Need I say more?

Worst cough syrup ever (aside from that cough syrup that brags about how bad it tastes): Dymatap. It ruined grape things for me. Makes me angry!

I'm coming down with something now too, which sucks. And I can't afford any new medicine so I'm using some nasty Cole-Eeze lozenges right now. The box says they never expire, at least.

Obviously, we're not using quite the same brands here, but I've personally never found the taste of cough syrup to anything other than delectable and, whenever I'm having to contend with some kind of nastiness in my throat, being able to serve myself a generous spoonful of that warm, comforting liquid is usually one of the few plus points. I can quite understand why some folks become addicted to the stuff.

Of course when I was a kid, orange-flavoured Calpol seemed to function as a universal cure for just about anything - coughs, fevers, the works. Even when I'd broken my arm, the first thing they did after putting my fractured limb in a sling was to give me a dosage of that happy little elixir. Ah, the memories. Something tells me that it wouldn't do much good for me now, though.

Game crashes frack me off no end. There's no logical reason for my stupid Sims game to crash like it's been doing, but it does so anyway. The game generates two files after every crash, a text file and an MDMP file. The former I can read but I don't understand most of what it's telling me; the latter I can't open at all and wouldn't know what to do with the data it contains anyway. I honestly don't know who to consult about this, although it certainly won't be the loser idiots at Best Buy; they'll hold my machine for twice as long as they estimate, which in itself will be three times longer than necessary, they'll charge me a couple hundred dollars, and in the end they'll tell me they don't know what the problem is. And they'll be rude about it, too. This sucks so much.

Whats ticking me off right now is that I've been enjoying a batch of home-made beef jerky. The jerky itself is great but I know that my waistline will suffer for it later. Looks like I may need to take an extra walk just to break even.

There's a variety available in stores that's almost entirely fat-free, although it can't match the homemade stuff for flavor. I use it fairly often; I like to dice up an ounce or so and add it to one of my rice recipes. Works pretty well.
