Right. Pomegranates are in season, a fruit with delightful Hellish connotations, so I'm in a giving mood.
Let's try this again, shall we? This is a thread for condemning all those little things to Hell. Things that don't require a thread of their own.
That means, the Greek chorus needs to keep itself under control and not wander off into a dozen smart alec posts in response. Got it?
Right. On your marks. Get set. Go.

A certain Canadian insurance company, who happily paid a contractor who billed them for clean-up work that I had done. Meanwhile, we're still waiting for the contractor to do a permanent repair to storm damage where a tree fell on the house three weeks ago. Their "customer service" employee says I must be patient. A pox upon them unto the third and fourth generation.

TICTH the extremely large number of jerks who think the goal of comments on Youtube music videos is to say the nastiest things possible about whatever kind of music you don't like.
It's fucking tiresome. Every damn video, a litany of "this singer is WAY better than..." or "this singer is CRAP compared to..." I don't fucking care about your pissing contest.

TICTH Unilever, Lynx/Axe Deodorant, and ad agency Ponce for this appalling advert. The Lynx/Axe adverts are normally pretty shit, but this plumbs new depths.
If you want to keep your lunch down and not watch it – here are the salient points. Modern day Noah builds ark and sprays himself with Lynx/Axe to attract two types of every sort of woman to the ark.
Yup, Unilever really are saying women are just animals. And look, they come in different types! There’s black ones! Red headed ones! Asian ones! Collect them all, kids, like fuckable Pokémon! As well as being screamingly sexist, there’s also an unhealthy hint of racism about this ad in my eyes.
Fuck you, Unilever. Fuck you Lynx/Axe, and fuck you ad agency Ponce for this objectivising, hideously misogynist piece of tripe. May you suffocate on the fumes of your own shoddy products.

TICTH the rat in my kitchen which is currently terrifying me. And because my bathroom is through the kitchen I'm scared everytime I need to go to the loo. Driving to my mates house a mile away for a pee is not really an option. I'm actually looking forward to going to work tomorrow to get away from it.
And I also CTH the council who have privatised their rat murdering department and you now have to pay by credit card (which I don't have - but thank you aforementioned mate for letting me use yours) and will take three weeks to come round and murder the bastard. By the end of three weeks I'll be a basket case.

TICTH the people who want to feed the homeless on Thanksgiving Day at the church where I work. We get more calls from such folks in the days leading up to Thanksgiving than we do the whole rest of the year put together. Nice of them to think of the homeless once a year, but I get hungry every single day, and I suspect the homeless do too. I wish to God we could charge people for the privilege of serving on Thanksgiving Day -- and a premium for those who want to just hand out food, not cook or clean.

TICTH people who use credit cards or EFTPOS for every freaking little purchase. Buying my lunch would be 50% quicker if you had those cute little slips of paper called dollars in your wallet. No PIN to remember, no processing delay while the computer system checks if you're the right person. No retrying after the shop assistant says it didn't go through.
And ESPECIALLY no umming and ahing about what extra thing you need to buy because of the $10 minimum.
