The fact that I need a report card, 2 proofs of adress, and the actual social security CARD for a Photo ID, ALL for one stinkin' little passport card!

But what can make them even more annoying?
I don't even bother answering the phone if I don't recognize the number on the caller ID. And instead of the now-common voice mail, I have an old school answering machine so I can screen the calls in case I want to pick it up anyway. Works for me. Especially this election season. I didn't have to talk to someone trying to push me to vote one way or the other at all.

Wild tigers may have as few as twelve years remaining before extinction:

Almost as upsetting is the utter stupidity and lack of caring in the comments section. Somedays, humans really make me sick.

When networks cut or censor TV shows, particularly when they're really, really pointless edits :/ (..not that I was watching some DVDs earlier on and noticed a scene that I hadn't seen before, only to realize that it had obviously been cut when they showed it on TV, or anything.. XD; ).

Oh, and when networks over-show TV shows. I dislike Ben 10 and Spongebob Squarepants to begin with (no offense if you like them, they're just not my cup of tea), but, over here at least, whenever there's a holiday, weekend or.. anything, Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon show both of those over and over again D: It drives me nuts, y'know? ^^; I don't mind marathons, but after the 20th one more or less in a row they start to wear a little thin x'D;.

Nine times out of ten they do it to sqeeze in more commercials.

Yeah, marathons can be pretty annoying after awhile. Even Foster's marathons can be annoying, especially when they run the less-than-stellar episodes (Imposter's, The Little Peas, most of the Goo and Cheese episodes, etc.). Not that CN even remembers Foster's, let alone plays a Foster's marathon.

Dissing on voice actors:

Yeah. 'Scuze me while I give the artist a piece of my mind.

I feel that x_x Only time they show Foster's over here (outside of Christmas and Halloween) is after 11 pm [and it's just the shorts, too - not that the shorts aren't good, or anything, but it's not the same as a full episode ^^.

And esh, I see what you mean, that kind of abuse is uncalled for D: It's probably some kid who doesn't realize how much work can go into voice acting and stuff, that's how they come off to me. Still uncalled for, though.

My Walmart had their Christmas stuff up before I left for AZ last week. Some places had them late last month.

Same here D:.

Um.. I don't know if it counts, but the fact that I'm bad at explaining things ticks me off sometimes ^^;.
