But enough about me. Today

13 Jan 2000

But enough about me. Today we feature guest peeves. First, from TurlyMing dot com:

A short list of things that annoy me, in no particular order:
- Failure to use turn signals ("blinkers")
- Invalid opt-out addresses in email spam
- Being on hold
- Stupid people
- Having to explain something more than once
This has been a public service announcement.

I'll agree with all of these, though I must confess I'm not much of a spam zealot. And from my very own domestic counterpart Helen, I am remiss if I don't mention her own Peeve of the Moment, Apple's very own Chooser.
