Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?

Restaurants changing their fucking menus ..."to be healthier"!!!!

I love Panera,good stuff! I don't live there,I don't go every day,once maybe twice a month. They have the best "sweet tea" I could buy or get outside of my own home,or ....had! Wife loves the "everything bagels and the Asiago cheese I like cin raisin or blueberry but I would always get a Sweet tea and lemon...FUCKING ALWAYS!!!!! But the manager said they have moved on to "healthier options".................FUCK THAT! If I want healthy I wouldn't go out to eat a fucking bagel!!!!!

I can't drink sweet tea from any restaurants. Way too much sugar. I can mix 2/3 unsweetened tea and 1/3 sweetened tea from Panera and its still too sweet.

Chick fil-a, always ask for the half and half and it’s a slam dunk

Nah, it's from a mix. You can tell, ...Panara I would fill the cup all the way with ice becuase it's brewing and would melt the ice which help dilute the sweetness to the perfect point. Now I will get a Milkshake from them.....theirs are very good.

I like Panera but it’s definitely expensive for basically a soup/salad/sandwich type of joint. I do love their black bean soup though.

Can't think of a time I ever ate anything but "breakfast" there. Muffins,bagels,danish,...they do have a breakfast "souffle" which is pretty good and use to have "GREAT ICE TEA"! Again my complaint is don't lure me into your restaurant with something and then change the menu and tell me to eat healthier!

VERIZON DOOR to DOOR SOLICITORS!!!!!!!!!!!



Had "another" run in with one yesterday!Being retired I am home during the day day and this guy comes to the door(about 2 pm) and just does not knock on it but drum rolls on it ...and then rings the door bell,thing is this is the third time I have sent this guy away. So I ignore it.3 hours later wife is home from work and I leave to get dinner(about an hour) ....he came back and my wife seeing him and knowing the knock ignored him all so that was at 5 pm,he returns at 7:30 pm and does the same thing again......and when I answered the door this time I was not a happy camper and he made things worse by lying to me and arguing with me. He said he was signing people left and right and that he got my neighbor,he didn't .How in the hell do I stop these ass holes? I called Verizon and they are "contractors" and don't know anything about them! God this piss's me off!Any idea's on how to get rid of him?

Put a NO SOLICITORS sign up, and the first time he comes, answer the door and quickly take his picture (he is on your property). Tell him, respectfully, you are not interested, and you have warned him not to come on your property. Let him know that if he does you will post his picture to the local community sites with notices that he specifically has ignored your requests and lied to your face. Also let him know that if he continues to harass you, you are willing to file a complaint with the police.

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?

OR, you could handle it the way it happened at my house. I have a 50lb stocky 3yo chow shepherd terrier mix. She's a very good dog non violent but a barker, but I also have an out of sight dog door, so when someone comes to the door she always runs up behind them barking if I don't stop her.

Two verizon solicitors came to my door 1 time. As Sadie came running out barking, one of the two made a beeline for my fence, and the other stayed next to my door. I told them no, and haven't seen them since.

LOL, my Chocolate Lab use to be great at scaring away people,open the door and she would show you around the house and lick you to death but she had a hell of a bark.

It's Kardashian level coverage. Housewives and people who enjoy following boring details of celebrities lives are all over this shit.

I'm not mad about people being interested in a royal wedding, but I think the over-the-top coverage is hilarious. Who wants to watch a live feed of people sitting down at a wedding? That was up on MSN this morning.
