MY WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT CABLE COMPANY, ZITO MEDIA. I have had numerous problems with these idiots, and the latest is they moved three channels on me, one of which was SCI-FI. And did they bother to tell any of their customers they were doing this? HELL NO!! And now the channel they put it on I need a "special box" to receive it. So they can kiss my ass. After the first of the year I'll be getting a satellite dish.
HANK.

What's pissing me off lately is the fact that some TV shows seem to think you are interested in what some idiot tweets as they scroll them across the bottom of your TV screen while the program is on. Most of them ain't worth reading, I really don't give a rats ass about your opinion. The good news is they don't stay on the screen long enough to read them anyway. The only way I know what they say is I recorded the show and therefore I could pause it. It's bad enough the station you're watching has to take up the bottom of your screen with their logo and ads for other shows they want you to watch, now they have to add this crap also. As soon as someone invents a TV that will block out this crap I will buy one.

Whats pissing me off lately is banks that don't seem to get the idea that you DON'T want their damn credit card. I swear, at least twice a week (got another one just now in todays mail) Bunnie or I get an offer from CITI bank to apply for their credit card. How many times do I have to shred them and ignore you before you get the idea maybe these folks DON'T want your card. Even at bulk mail rates it's got to be costing them money to keep mailing this shit. If I DID want a credit card it wouldn't be yours just because I think you're an annoying pain in the ass.

Yeah. Once you get on their mailing list, they are relentless. Couple offers every week like clockwork.

What's pissing me off now is ANY large company you have to call on the phone hoping to resolve a problem. I needed to call Verizon today to resolve a matter. And what do I get?
Press one for english: press two for spanish: press three for french: press four for klingon, etc, etc,
What the hell do I press to talk to a human being. 6,978? Maybe, "if you need assistance" should be at the for front. Because by the time I've listened to all 36 options I'm kinda numb and forgot why I called in the first place. So called "customer service" sucks anymore.

What's pissing me off is COMPUTERS! Worthless piece of shit for the most part. Just about the time you figure out how to do something on them some son of a bitch has to come along and "NEW AND IMPROVE"it to a point where it is now completely useless. Case in point:
use to be able to go to the library and go on ALLDATA to find repair information for a car problem. I say USE TO because some S.O.B new and improved it. (the libraries computer system) Twice in the past week I've needed to use Alldata, and use to be even with my meager computer skills I could find what I needed. Now...I click on A, it says see B, I click on B it says see C, I click on C it says see A. So I go round and round on this merry go round for half an hour and learn nothing useful. Sooo, so much for that resource.

What pisses me off? Repair manuals that are a USELESS piece of shit! Case in point. Trying to solve a no start problem with the Sonoma that seems to be fuel related, so I go to the Haynes Repair Manual which states "Based on a complete teardown and rebuild." to look for the location of the fuel pump relay so as to test it. And what doe's the book tell me? And I quote, "Several accessories use relays to transmit power to the component. The various relays are grouped together in several locations." Unquote. Boy, that's awfully F&^*ing helpful.
So, after I finish this rant I guess I go to Googel and see what I can find there, or run over to the local GMC dealer, they should know (I hope)

Google is a worthless piece of shit too. I google "location of fuel pump relay, 1995 Sonoma pickup truck" and what do I get? a video of how How to test the fuel pump relay on a 1999 Suburban which has all the relays located in a relay box under the hood. NOT HELPFUL!!! They also provided some diagrams of God knows what as they looked NOTHING like what I have. Off to the dealer I guess.

Just got off google watching some car repair videos on face book. SO... you type in what you're looking for, like how to replace the thingamajig on my 2015 whatchmacallit and up pops a video ad for some damn thing you have NO interest in. Well by the time the SKIP AD icon pops up before I can even click on it the ad is over with anyway. Ya think ya could of displayed that sooner? It's like everything in the world is out to piss ya off!

WOW! Been awhile since anyone's posted here. So what's pissing me off today? CELL PHONES! Got a new flip phone from Verizon Friday, and it is a completely worthless piece of shit compared to my old one. You would think if you're going to make something "new and Improved" you would make it easier to operate not more difficult, but such is not the case here.EXAMPLE: With my old phone I had only to press ONE button to bring up my list of contacts, then scroll down to whom I wished to call, press send and their phone would ring. With the new phone I have to go thru a four step procedeur to access my contact list (this is an improvement?) When I got to whom I wished to call with my OLD phone, say Trevor for example it would display your home phone number 440-123-4567 and your cell phone number 440-321-7654 I could select the one I wanted to call and press send. The new phone just displays the persons name but gives NO number, so when I press send does it call BOTH numbers? Don't know, haven't tried it yet. Where this REALLY gets confusing is the auto parts stores as for example I had the Advance auto parts in Chardon and MIddlefield listed in the old phone and I knew by the exchange which was which. The new phone displays Advance twice but I have no idea which store I'm calling. This thing is probably just going to end up in a drawer some where as it just pisses me off.

SO!! What's pissing me off today? SPRAWL-MART! Was in the Chardon one yesterday to get my second COVID shot and do a little shopping, and what do I find? Some idiot at corparate thought it was a wonderful idea to remodel the entire store. Whether this was a "busy work" project for the employees or an attempt to piss off the customer base I'm not sure. If it was the latter then they have succeeded, at least in my case as well as a couple of other folks I spoke with who were wandering about the store trying to find stuff. EXAMPLE: Automotive is where sporting goods was, sporting goods got moved to the paint dept which got moved to where shoes use to be, and on and on.
SO! what is the solution to this problem? Well mine is that I simply WON'T be shopping at Sprawl Mart as much anymore. Other then my meds which I get at the pharmacy most every thing else I can get else where. SCREW YOU SPRAWL MART!!!

Been awhile since we've used this thread so I figured it was time to revive it. So what is my gripe? NOTHING IS SO SIMPLE THAT SOME SON OF A BITCH CAN'T F.U.B.A.R IT BEYOND BELIEF!! CASE IN POINT:
Today I had to go to the DMV in Chardon to get a new plate for my trailer. Use to be you went in an took a number, at some point they would call your number, you went up to the counter and took care of business. Pretty damn simple,no? Well some asshole in charge thought "Lets new and improve it" so they spent God knows how much money to install a computer. So now when you go in you scan this piece of crap with your smart phone and it does something. Since I DON'T have a smart phone I'm standing there going "now what the hell do I do?" Shortly the screen told me if you do not have a smart phone press the blue botton.
OK, so I press the blue botton and the screen changes to a keyboard and tells me to type in my name, OK, this ain't so bad. When I tried to type my name I quickly discovered the keyboard is lacking the letters R and Y. It may have lacked others also but since I needed only those two letters I did not concern myself with not needed letters. So I spelled my name as best I could. So the DMV now knows me as HENPZ MZEPS. I chose the P cuz it sorta looks like the letter R and the Z because it is next to Y in the alphabet.
Must of worked cuz it assigned me a number which appeared rather quickly on a screen on the wall. At that point I went up to the counter got my plate and left. All the while wondering how was this better then taking a paper number off a hook. Who Knows??

I would think at some point in the year you will need to to the DMV for plates, renew your licence, or something. So let us know is this also in effect in Ashtabula Co. as well or is just Chardon "blessed" with this overly complcated way of doing a simple task.
