All kidding aside, people need to stop knocking them on account of them just being MS . . . they've done some great things for the computer industry throughout the years.
I have to agree here I don't see why people hate MS so much.

People who can't merge into traffic piss me off. It's called an ACCELERATION LANE. Accelerate, don't stop on the damn ramp.
Another thing....if you're turning right, see if there's an acceleration late there, too. Merging <> Rocket Science.
Would you like an "apple pie with that?" Did I order an apple pie???!?? If I wanted apple pie, I would've ordered it. Why don't you ask me if I want everything else on the menu that I didn't order.
People who use their speakerphones in open cubicle area. Hey, go ahead and have your two-person conference call. No one else is trying concentrate!

Ahem... Macs are great for games... I played my first game on a Mac... (Sim Ant)

You know what I hate? Confirmation boxes. Whenever you do ANYTHING on a computer, it ask Are You Sure? Yes im sure. WHy did I hit the button if im not sure? Why do I need to hit Ok ever 3 minutes when installing windows? I hate those things... Now im pissed off... damn you guys... time for BF...

here is one for you morning bloomers. On lookers. Just because there is a wreck on the other side of traffic, doesnt mean we all have to make traffic. I just want to kill all those idiots who slow down and watch the wrecked cars. At that point i wish i had a sack of rocks to throw at the them

Here's one. I work in an accounts receivable department for a hospital.
Here, we have a credit department which deals with accounts that have negative balances (i.e. we might owe the payor money back).
So then why am I responsible for accounts with negative balances, if we have a credit department? I don't get it. So does that mean that department does nothing? Am I really accounts receivable, or am I just accounts?
Why have a credit department if they call me any time they have a credit over $100,000? I don't understand - is it my job or not? If it is, then what is theirs?

What?? I've never seen a police car with its magic flashy lights on before, or a car stopped on the side of the road! Maybe I better stop too, so I can take pictures of this unbelievably rare event.

Another: People driving out of a large public event (ballgame, concert, etc.) who won't alternate and let other cars into the traffic flow.
Yeah, don't look at me and that makes me not exist. That extra car-length would make you way later getting home. Inconsiderate a-hole.
Perhaps I should've started a thread about things that DON'T piss us off. It would've used way less ECGN disk space.

One I forgot earlier (sorry bout the double post I don't know what happened) is compulsory donations in museams etc.. If it is compulsory it is not a donation it is a fee! Stop pretending and admit to you filthy capitalist ambitions!
Oh anjd finally items that cost a penny or two over 10 dollars so you have to break a twenty and get a load of change
People who pick their nose...

I hate it when people blindly repeat things they hear on the news, or in an e-mail, or in a rumor.
Yeah M$ sucks!
Why?
Becuase...they're a money-hungry monopoly!
Do you use Windows?
Well... yeah...
Then thank Microsoft.
People like to bash Microsoft out of jealousy. Microsoft makes a product that people want to buy. How does that constitute a monopoly? Mac makes an OS and such, but not a lot of people buy it becuase they don't want to. It's not like they're being forced. No, they just want to go with what someone uttered out of their ignorant mouth.
Also, anti-war protesters PISS ME OFF. They are mostly 18-22 year old people who think they are crusading the great crusade, ridding the world of the evil and war.
So, how will you stop terrorism?
Well... don't drop bombs on them, and threaten civilians.
When did we threaten civilians?
Um... well don't bomb them.
Then how will we solve these problems?
Um... ah... that's the goverment's job - but don't kill them!
Sickening, ignorance is.
