Probably both. But I'm staying inside. F this. And it's only going to get worse. I need to buy another house somewhere in Canada. Or Siberia.

My beard. My playoff beard is getting to the point where it actually looks like a real beard, but I wish it were fuller. I have good coverage on the areas that would be covered by a goatee or sideburns, but the hair on my cheeks is rather sparse.

I have gotten a lot of compliments on mine, actually. Might keep it once the playoffs are done.

I'm going to hate having to shave this. Both my electric razors are getting dull. They just pull on the hair now.

Gotta use a blade

Even so, I will have to trim up with scissors before I shave.

Texting with a girl that waits hours or more to respond to the latest text, but always has her phone on standby when you're with her to talk with her girlfriends. Irks the **** out of me.

This isn't irrational. Was just recently dating/hanging out with someone who did this. Annoyed the **** out of me.

People who take the grocery cart all the way to the drop off area in the parking lot, then just leave it there instead of tucking it into another cart. It would literally take an extra 5 seconds of your time and would prevent the massive jumble of carts that now must be neatly stacked before returning to the front of the store.

If it were less frequent with them or more frequent with me then I probably wouldn't mind as much. Nice usage of past tense though, I'm considering on doing the same.

People who walk up and down the city streets with complete disregard for the damage their umbrellas may cause passers-by.

My neighbors two doors down own three Toyota Sienna minivans. That by itself would not be irrationally peeving, but all three of them are not only of the same model cycle (the 1998–2003 first-generation models), but all of them are the exact same color. I can’t see inside to see if the interiors are any different, but from the outside they own three completely identical cars.

When I was in high school, I knew a kid that his family had 3 chevy HHRs. All burnt orange and all the same year.

The pop up swimming pool my wife made me buy a few years ago. Supposed to be on totally flat space. My lawn looks totally flat but isn't. Dug and dug and dug this year to try to get it even but eventually just said, ah screw it.

I used to be bring in shopping carts as a job in high school so I always try to push the carts in as far as possible. The grocery store next to me has made it impossible to push the carts together though as they have 3 different sized carts available; One cart is basically the handheld basket on wheels, the normal one, and the kiddie one with a clown car for a front. The carts returns are always a jumbled mess spilling out into the parking lot because of it.

Unless it is something super, super sensitive or private that can't be put in an email- people who send an email asking me to call them.

Got one today, lady was just advising me of a change in purchase order price. You couldn't just tell me that in an email?

Literally vs figuratively.

Kevin Orie on today's Pirates Radio Pregame: "Pedro is literally carrying the rest of the team on his back."

Damn, it must be hard to run the bases with 8 other guys on your back!
