Poop Noodles

My computer broke.

Consequently, this post will be a collection of mini-rants.

Mini rant #1:
I hate when people change their layouts too much. A change in color scheme is nice every once in a while, or a new upgrade every few years is acceptable. But the continuous "improvement" on certain blogs is ridiculous. I go back a week later, and I'm unsure that I'm at the same site because it changed so much since the last time I looked at it, and then I waste time looking for stuff because they changed the navigation as well.
It's like they do it just to mess with me.
This goes for you, too, Facebook with your new "Timeline" trash.

Mini rant #2:
How and why did the rat-tail hair style ever become popular?

Mini rant #3:
There's this one thing about Coldplay songs. Once you wear one out, you can never wear it back in.
Yellow.
Til Kingdom Come.
The Scientist: 5 years later since my last full listen and I'm still tired of it.

Mini rant #4:
I hate at my old job when people would have a check going to the wrong address, and then I go to the back where all the checks are to see if I can pull it for them, and then they tell me I can't, so I have to lie to the student and say that we can't pull it even though technically we could, if we were nice, caring and forgiving creatures. Consequently, we decide to punish the student by making them wait longer and end up punishing ourselves because this creates more paperwork for a stop issue/repayment check and then we have to deal with all their sardonic comments and phone calls about how long all processes take when we could have just pulled the friggin' check.

Mini rant #5:
I hate how many acronyms there are in accounting.
GAAP and IFRS are fine, and I can even get over the AS and the GAAS, but do you really need all of the following organizations to create hundreds of standards and then hundreds of statements on the standards that supposedly explain the standards?
IASC, IASB, AICPA, FASB, IOSCO, PCAOB, IFAC, GAO, IIA
They make me sound like a phonetically retarded robot. 

Mini rant #6:
I hate how the lyrics for Don't Play Me Close by David Rush aren't online.
Like I'm supposed to sound out how this rap song goes.

Mini rant #7:
The floor below the table at Loco's was sticky.

Mini rant #8:
I hate how apartment complexes in Statesboro are unnecessarily greedy. So you're telling me that even though I paid a full month's rent, I have to move out by noon on the 26th and then I have to be homeless for 6 days before I can legally take ownership of my new place on the 1st?

But that's enough hate for one day.

At my wedding, instead of saying, "I do", I'm going to say, "I accept the terms and conditions."

Heteroscedasticity,
TWS

  1. IT has you beat with the acronyms. I like them though, makes me sound like I know what I'm talking about. Robots are awesome.
