You know what I hate? Besides balls of yarn that have knots in them, I mean?
Cell phone voice mail. When you're calling long distance. I swear, it's a conspiracy on the part of cellphone companies the world over: you ring the number, and the voice mail options -- "Press 1 to start over, otherwise, wait for the beep, but first dance the hora before we can connect your call" -- are diabolically programmed to require that you spend just over one minute - whereas if there were no stupid recording, you could leave a message and be done with it, and it would not be a full minute. But since they round up, well, as long as it's 63 seconds, they get to take you for the full 120.
Know what I mean? Aargh.
On a slightly sillier note, did you read this article about a too-successful game of Hide and Seek?
