I can tell you at least one of them is one of my best friends- who although he is US citizen, recently got his Oz citizenship as well. Skews the numbers a bit, I'd think- can't believe he's the only "foreigner" with dual citizenship counted in that number...

TICTH the bloody woman who agreed to rent a room to my stepdaughter so she could run the new york marathon, and for an amount that seemed top end of what is affordable - only to e-mail today with a demand for more money, as she now 'feels' that she offered it for too little when other people seem to be charging a lot more.
total breech of contract of course... but what can anyone do? The marathon is less than 2 weeks away.

TICTH people's dietary preferences and not requirements adhered to with obsessive compulsive scrupulosity such that they assume they can tell us what to cook when they come over and choose restaurants that cater to them.
Also, TICTH their pompous sense of moral superiority about their veganism and vegetarianism as they look down their noses at us unwashed curds and whey brained pilgrims. May you all eat gelato and get hit with deveganizing rays.

TICTH emotionally clingy people. Just because I don't spend my entire day talking to you and only you doesn't mean I'm mad at you. It means I'm doing MY JOB. And if I don't call or text you at least once a day, get over it. (A grown-ass man, old enough to be my daddy has been stomping all over my last nerve lately, clinging to me like an insecure adolescent.)

TICTH all forms of infectious enteric illness, especially those which preferentially attack infants and toddlers and turn them into thin-faced, spindly-legged, wet and slumping little poo-and-vomit factories. And the irresponsible parents who contribute to the spread of these things by sending their kids sick to daycare. And the daycare centres whose management are too spineless to actually TELL parents to take a kid back home when they are obviously sick.

TICTH business partners who don't seem to understand what it means to be in business. Seriously? The bar business is fun, sure, but it is also a business, with non-fun stuff that needs to be done, like cleaning toilets, mopping floors and stocking coolers. I can somehow work til 4AM and still get back to work by 10AM later that morning. I don't like it, but I do it cause it needs to be done. Himself can't manage to get here much before noon, no matter if he closed the night before or not. One of these days I'm gonna need someone to bring me RC Cola and Moonpies in prison

TICTH digital television. It can be a bit erratic around sunset, but every time the temperature drops, I lose reception and tonight it's gone completely. Neither the booster nor the indoor aerial are making any difference.
I've just paid out a chunk of money to renew the TV licence, as well. And please don't suggest iPlayer, this isn't an option for bandwidth reasons.
We never had half so many problems with analogue television as we've had since the switchover to digital. Now I've got part-time reception and one of my family's got none at all.

Agreed re digi-tv.
And TICTH the Canadian Broadcorping Castration TV network. Which decided to go to digital and to cable/satellite only in several areas of the country. This means that although our tax money goes to the CBC, we cannot actually receive it unless we pay a third party cable/sat company for the privilege.
Also CTH the Conservative gov't of Canada and Prime Sinister Stephen Harpoon who is skewering us all with his three pronged political penis by continually gives welfare to rich corporations, cutting basic things like the CBC and educational funding, and dashing the hopes of an entire generation of young people.

TICTH financial institutions. All of the fuckers who keep changing their savings rates, which means I now have accounts with more than 5 different institutions - and multiple passcode, x digit numbers, words, dates etc that I'm supposed to remember.
In the deepest part of hell, I consign The Post Office, whose savings accounts are held by Bank of Ireland (UK) Ltd. Having filled in the usual online forms, I was today sent a piece of paper which contains almost every bit of personal data you can imagine.
So if someone wanted to open a credit card or, I don't know, a mortgage in my name, all they'd need to do would be to intercept this one letter. Sent in the ordinary (unsecure) mail.
I don't know if it is a breach of the Data Protection Act to be so willfully shite with other people's information, but it bloody well should be.

There are many different grammar checks, and each has its own on/off switch.
Also, I use the GB English dictionary(in browsers as well as Office) because the dictionary compliers haven't understood that "ise" endings predominate over "ize" in Australia.

ise/ize isn't a grammar check. It's a spelling check. And yes, you can turn of grammar checking without turning of spell checking. And yes, you can turn of particular grammar checks or you can turn them all off.

TICTH my credit card company.
Last January when my old card expired, they issued a new one. That was fine. Then in March they changed my number and issued another new card. They have just done it again.
The only thing that I automatically charge to my credit card is my newspaper subscription. I have to tell them the new number over the phone because their internet site is not secure. Unfortunately, my hearing is very bad, and this type of phone conversation is an ordeal that takes a long time. I expect to go through this once every three years, but three times in one year is much too much.
Moreover, I am supposed to be able to activate the new card over the internet, but the site kept refusing my information. That's another phone call I have to make tomorrow.
