eh, tattoos at least have the small chance to be not terrible. I've never seen a good bumper sticker.

Would you agree that the majority of users of bumper stickers and tattoos are not in the upper class?

I have a bumper sticker on my Jeep (I'd rather be in Maine) and tattoos. Apparently most of you think I'm a white trash dadhole.

How every time I try to lean my garbage bag outside my door against the railing, I pick the off-balance way to lean it first and have to spin the bag 180°

It just seems to defy the odds

The use of the word "to" as a verb. Newspapers (online and print) are notorious for this. They're most likely the reason why I incorrectly use it sometimes. I don't know how a business in which its sole purpose depends on language and thus grammar can be so careless with the use of that word.

Utility meters on the inside of the home.

I have to drive up to Pittsburgh, wait for the gas company to check the meter, and then drive back on the day before I move. Yes, I would love to spend 8 hours in the car and up to 4 hours in an empty house waiting for the gas company to show up.

Is that even legal? In CA the meter has to be visible from the street.

It took me longer than I thought it would, but eventually I found one. Perhaps they're getting better at it...

I wonder if it's one of those grandfathered laws. Gas company did ask if my meter was inside or out, and I was surprised they had to ask.

I didn't receive my Sewage bill for last month. It usually arrives during the last week of the month. I'm fairly certain it was delivered to my neighbor, as I got their mail one day. Unfortunately, said neighbor also moved out. So unless someone new moves in and decides to give me the bill, I have to be inconvenienced.

I checked their website and you can supposedly pay online... but of course their "registration" process involves creating some convoluted password for the first login that doesn't work, and they apparently close at 4:30.

Orlando airport. Amateur hour. And I'm usually only here once a year. If I was a local business person I would have lost it long ago.

I always opt for Tampa rather than Orlando. And by always, I mean 3 times.

I bought 24 Hanes white t-shirts. Large. Wore about 10. Washed them. Those mother-beep-s shrunk and are now too tight on me. WTF.
