Don't You Just Hate it When...


* You have to try on a pair of sunglasses with that stupid little plastic thing in the middle of them.

* The person behind you in the supermarket runs his cart into the back of your ankle.

* The elevator stops on every floor and nobody gets on.

* There's always a car riding your tail when you're slowing down to find an address.

* You open a can of soup, and the lid falls in.

* It's bad enough that you step in dog poop, but you don't realize it till you walk across your living room rug.

* There's a dog in the neighborhood that barks at EVERYTHING.

* You can never put anything back in a box the way it came.

* Three hours and three meetings after lunch you look in the mirror and discover a piece of parsley stuck to your front tooth.

* You drink from a soda can into which someone has extinguished a cigarette.

* You slice your tongue licking an envelope.

* Your tire gauge lets out half the air while you're trying to get a reading.

* A station comes in brilliantly when you're standing near the radio but buzzes, drifts and spits every time you move away.

* There are always one or two ice cubes that won't pop out of the tray.

* You wash a garment with a tissue in the pocket and your entire laundry comes out covered with lint.

* The car behind you blasts its horn because you let a pedestrian finish crossing.

* A piece of foil candy wrapper makes electrical contact with your filling.

* You set the alarm on your digital clock for 7pm instead of 7am.

* The radio station doesn't tell you who sang that song.

* You rub on hand cream and can't turn the bathroom doorknob to get out.

* People behind you on a supermarket line dash ahead of you to a counter just opening up.

* Your glasses slide off your ears when you perspire.

* You can't look up the correct spelling of a word in the dictionary because you don't know how to spell it.

* You have to inform five different sales people in the same store that you're just browsing.

* You had that pen in your hand only a second ago, and now you can't find it.

* You reach under the table to pick something off the floor and smash your head on the way up.
