I personally don't think anything will truly help a person quit smoking unless they're really ready to quit. I would imagine you were ready to quit and so the anti-depressant really helped.

I think you may be right there.  Thumbup

F'n people who feel a need to post about how they're drinking on Facebook.  Especially the over 40 "I'm having a mid-life crisis and am reliving my 20s a little too late but won't fess up to it" group.  God I hate these mutha f*ckas.

People who video record stuff off their TV and post it on youtube.  If you don't have the tools to do it right, don't bother.

To clarify, playing something on their TV and using a handheld video recorer to tape the screen.  So that way you can hear their laughing and unwanted dialog.

Acne commercials. I understand that there are those people who need medication, but for christ sakes a couple of zits is not a freaking breakout. Some of these commercials actually have the balls to say that even minor acne is some kind of major medical condition, requiring a doctor visit. What kind of vain self conscience teenagers are they trying to create?

And then they always have some actress who talks about how horrible her acne was because a single zit showed up on the corner of her mouth or on her cheek and then she found this miracle product to clear up her massive acne problem. Kids if you have acne take: some rubbing alcohol, a cotton swab and wipe your face. It may burn, but it works.

These commercials are teaching our kids that if you have a problem, the solution is medication and there is something wrong with you have zits; its freaking adolescents, we all went through and with most of us it clears up by our late teens.

People who stand in highly trafficed doorways or in front of the refrigerator at work-and then act annoyed when you excuse your self to get around them.  Find a better place to talk.

I have a similar peeve: When I was in High School I HATED it when kids would form little groups and talk, hug, kiss, or something else equally annoying in the middle of the hall in-between classes. Inevitably, these were the same kids that would complain about teachers telling them to get to class. Lookingup Hatred

I think I've brought this up before, but lately it's really been p**sing me off. Here in Arizona, there seems to be this epidemic of people getting on major highways and using the left lane to just become a vegetable and cruise. Every other state I have ever driven in, the left lane has been the lane to go fast and/or to pass. Slower cars seem to know, generally, to stay to the right. Not in AZ! On a daily basis I will hop on the freeway for my 30-minute-ish commute to work, get over to the left as my instincts and general road decorum have always told me, and end up having to get over to the right in order to pass some dingbat who is cruising along at the speed limit, sometimes even below. What gives, you morons? Even when I get on the interstate to head north to Flagstaff, in the desert, I experience the same thing. Anyone else here live in AZ and understand what I'm talking about? I've driven in California, Illinois, and Virginia on a regular basis, and cross-country on a few occasions, and I've never seen anything like it anywhere else.

My guess is the high percentage of retirees in AZ accounts for that effect.

I can't stand one more minute of the $#@#ing news! Its all propaganda, political BS or inane #@$# I don't care about. I can not literally stand any of the major networks, CNN, MSNBC and FOX are all crap! If they do actually cover any news its all so biased I can't stand it. I just want somebody to tell me whats going on thats actually semi-objective about the whole thing.

I apologize for the rant but I was just stuck in the hospital waiting room for two hours and all they had on the TV's were newschannels.

I think I would find QVC (the shopping channel) worse. I hate their ugly clothes!

Yeah, TV news is all pretty awful.  I think the Daily Show does better coverage than any of them considering the run time, and that's just SAD.

I think the problem with the news is that they care more about ratings, than keeping you informed. The truth doesn't matter when the majority of people watch your news network.

If that was true then the news will be reporting the news based upon whom could get the most information first, the most shocking first or whatever before the other news sources (i.e. the ratings game) therefore it'll never sound like propaganda.

The NEWS (today) they are trying to mold history, swiftly!  They are too busy trying to become history, they don’t care if Obama was a good leader, global warming is real or 1,000 troops die in combat…  all they want is to become part of history. Unfortunately for the NEWS, the people has the power of the Internet to check any/all resources and often times we find the news isn’t reporting with an open mind, they have an agenda and some of their issues are either wrong or half truth.

So we are questing the NEWS and this is the real problem. Therefore the news becomes a propaganda machine because they are busy protecting their reputation. And it’s all about their reputation, because if the people don’t trust or believe in the news/reporters then they don’t have the soapbox to stand.
