My latest pet peeve . . . the people out there who take it upon themselves to be some of the ultimate jerks in the world and vote a mini down because . . . because why?

I just posted a picture today and 8 votes later it\'s at a 4.1!!! A freakin\' 4.1! Now I don\'t expect a 10 but for the love of pete what I posted is not less than Table Top quality.

Y\'all who do this should be ashamed of yourselves! You really should be.

I understand the odd time when you accidently click a score lower than what you wanted to give but this seems bloody intentional this time!

It\'s mean, unfair and completely irritating!

This happens way too much durring the summer. I get sniped often as well. If the score on the mini is important to you don\'t post anything durring the summer months when the kids are out of school. wait untill the fall when they have their heads full of school crap instead.

And will work itself out over the course of the voting. 8 votes is nothing Meg.

I hate it when you realise that sculpting a cloak IS harder than u first realised

And that getting the green stuff to hang as you sculpted is probably easier once it\'s partially cured

It\'s a learning curve!

 

[Sand Rat]

It may have sorted itself out already Meg - I just voted on all your stuff I hadn\'t hit so far, and there was nothing below a 7.

My night\'s pet peeve? People who argue about pennies on a reservation. I just got off the phone with a guy calling about a reservation for a hotel in San Francisco @ $95.00 a night at a premium hotel that our system is showing at $175.00. He booked through a 3rd party web site see my mini here; http://www.coolminiornot.com/166817 ) and the quoted price was $94.50. he got mad about the $.50 and called the hotel to change it, long distance and then when the agent said he couldn\'t he tried to talk to Corporate about it. Not our problem call the web site! Geez! I want a cookie. No wonder I got fat.

Sounds like the people I deal with on a daily basis - they think that because they failed to read a warranty or they read something online we\'ll bend over backwards to accomadate their wishes.

Doesn\'t work that way.

Get this.....The very next call was some guy pissed off because we didn\'t have a hotel in the area he wanted. He wanted me to give him enough hotel points (like frequent flier points) to make up a night\'s stay because of it.

People who trade you a poorly painted Grey Knight army that they want to get rid of cheap, and after letting it sit in storage for a few years you decide to strip it, and then find out that half of the weapons are broken in half and not pinned.

It\'s one thing if they tell you the condition of figures ahead of time, but it\'s another if they try to pass it off as mint with a crappy paintjob.

I have since learned to make sure I am very informed of the condition of figures in trades.

@Liz. So, he wanted points for your hotel chain not having a hotel where he wanted it? I don\'t think he understands the basics of building construction, like it takes time to build something. He can\'t just order one up and hey presto, it magically appears.

It\'s the same when a hotel is sold out.....\"what do you mean you\'re sold out! I NEED a room!\"........like we have a bag of holding big enough to toss someone in for the night! Geez!

I heard about them. They attack an old guy in a mini van. They blocked the way, then got upset when the old guy started running over their bikes. lol

There\'s a big one down in SanFrancisco. On the last friday of every month - and the police simply look the other way, probably with Gavin Newsom\'s approval - there\'s a group who call themselves Critical Mass. A bunch of self rightous bicyclists who get into a large group....VERY large group and proceed to ignore traffic laws, traffic lights, right of way and intentionally screw up traffic. Oh, and they wait till the height of rush hour to stage their \'protest\' of there being, in their opinion, too many cars. Impede ambulances and firetrucks??..........oooohh weeelll..........

This isn’t a bash on Korea, but I get this from them the most…

When I am shopping and Koreans stop in the exit door way and start talking. I am a patient man. So I wait because I am thinking they forgot something and need to go back. Then I listen and can make out they are just talking. This is the part I have only gotten here; I try to move by them politely. Then I am called pig or made fun of because I couldn’t get past the 2 cm gape they conveniently left for me. lol

Or

People video taping you with their camera phones for the sole purpose of mocking. Going out to have dinner with your friends and some arse is waiting for you to have a bit of food so they can get a photo of a fat foreigner eating.

A woman in my wife’s office was walking from lunch and a guy in a car was pacing her with his camera phone video taping her. HE drove off laughing when she yelled at him.

International Gripe;

Rude kids.

Bad typers who do not fix their mistakes. Sometimes people will have a really bad title on CMON and instead of fixing it, they just let it go. What ever happened to if you are going to do it, do it right?

Women who gripe about leaving the toilet seat up. Don’t you look before you sit? ???

I’ll leave now.

Well Meg as much as its a well painted piece, I think its the bomb thats killing it. First off for a bomb its painted wrong..a small amount of research and painted more like a real bomb would of helped. Second the American Flag tail and USA painted on it can kill it alone as wel.l America does not hold a very favorable world image at the moment and people could just nail it for that reason alone. You have to think of who your voters are.

Beggars...No matter why.

I was accosted today by a church group asking for donations with their kids standing by.
Here\'s an idea...Have the church members offer to mow grass or do a car wash, sell candy bars, something, anything other than begging.
Same with baseball teams and all other functions.
