When a laser diode is rated at "x" current, and I run it 20% higher, and it blow. When I see everywhere people running 30 40 even 50% higher. haha

People who drive too slowly.

Lack of online privacy.

People too stubborn to admit when they are wrong.

Had to google that one... yes it is extremely annoying.

People who walk slowly.

Old people who use the self checkout.

People who abuse the legal system

People that abuse the copyright system

Credit cards - I dislike the idea that you can spend money you don't have. I hate it when I get stuck in a line because someone has to try their credit card 5 times. They are slower, and less convenient than cash IMO (especially now that there are no pennies) People can swipe your credit card and get your pin, can't do that with cash :D
I only use my credit card in emergencies and online shopping.

Say what? They're still being used over here here. The only thing slower than paying with cash is checks! It takes about two seconds to swipe and go, no pin needed.

Due to the lack of ATMs in the UP that don't charge for withdrawals nearly all of my purchases are with credit/debit cards. We have 2 ATMs in a 30mi radius and both charge $5/transaction and the minimum withdrawal is $20, maximum of $200.

People who think they are more equal than others.
People who think they are right when they are wrong.
People who are being in power thinking they can do whatever they want.

"People are people."

Great to see this thread is working :)


Now what really grinds my gear is having 2 the same green lasers and one of them suddenly is way less powerful then the other....

I've been getting this lately...

When someone claims to be apologizing for abhorrent behavior, by telling you how they're not wrong, and you're the asshole for being offended in the first place.
What the hell kind of apology is that??

The fact that spongebob squarepants can fill a seemingly empty bath with water when he is already under the sea.

How about that you can hear him talk? Sound does not travel the same way through water.

It bugged me with Finding Nemo :tinfoil:
