GAS-RELATED PROBLEMS:
-automatic shutoff, which reduces the speed of gas flow for the last ~25 cents, wasting your precious time
-when they don't have automatic shutoff and you go one or two pennies over an even amount
-when it asks you to come inside for the receipt, when the whole point of paying outside with a card is so that you wouldn't have to go inside
-the crippling price of gasoline (not funny, but it DOES suck)
-when the back window of your vehicle is too dirty for you to properly check yourself out while your gas is pumping
-when the handle doesn't have that drop down thing that allows you to walk away from the handle and pump automatically
-when the handle has one of those things, but you can only catch it on like the 2nd or 3rd rung down, so that, sure, it pumps automatically but considerably slower than if you were pulling the lever full blast
-when you find the last person's receipt but there is no interesting or potentially lucrative information on it
-when the only available pump is on the opposite side of the side of the car that has the gas intake
-new jersey's laws regarding full service gas stations and the awkward tip interactions that system produces
when your health insurance doesn't cover your propecia costs.
When Facebook is blocked on your work computer.
- When dry cleaning can't get out that merlot stain
- Long lines at Starbucks when you're in a hurry
- Pledge week on KCRW
- Blackberry outages
- Annoying ringtones
- Cute boys who pop their collars
