My pet peeve is the T-Shirt industry has decided they no longer will install TAGS on the back of the neck on the shirt

instead some paper pushing puts stamps the shirt with ink

they must save a penny per shirt

after you wash the shirt the stamped tag starts to fade

Why does this bother me?

I am. Husband that rises in the morning and does my best not to wake my wife. She works also and goes in later than I do

with a tag you see it and slip the shirt on

without the tag, you turn the shirt over and try to find the stamp. You can not see it so you put the shirt on taking a 50/50 gamble you will have to turn it around

so to avoid this I turn on the light which wakes my love

Ya’ll if momma ain’t happy then non one in the house will be happy,  

 

lol.   Back to back posts

someone is peeved.   lol.

Put everything except your shirt on, step out of the bedroom to the bath or where ever and turn on the light there.  Sometimes I can find the shoulder seams and make a fairly good guess,  but not always!

I'm still here . I am still to get a new 'pooter', still using public access pooters atm .  Its one of those 'round to it 'jobs. 

My pet peeve  in my town atm that the power keeps going off. Just a little bit of rain on the power poles and they  seem to short out  because  of the build up of dust,  , even causing pole top fires.

I live rural, if a squirrel farts we lose power

Which brings me to a pet peeve

entergy of Ms. Pays millions every year for power line repair and tree trimming

so here it is

why don’t they bury the power line?

last year a cable co ran  fiber optic everywhere under ground.  Why in hell wasn’t the power co in that ditch with the cable co ?

from what they spend in 1 or 2 years maintaining overheads they could bury it and be done.

Still using public access pooters gggrrrr . My ISP here in Oz, f**ked me around , changed companies, and type of service etc etc., effectively cutting off my service without telling me, I now know why my pooter won't work.  Time for a new ISP .
