When your SO asks you a question and you tell them "Google it". They continue to struggle with the phone/laptop/whatever. You get so irritated that you find the solution on Google for them.

Myself at not ever buying more hangers. Why? They're not expensive and I can get them at street corners. But no, I'll have a shirt covering another shirt underneath a jacket on a hanger. Then never find the dang thing. And that irritates me.

When you have to wait 12hr+ for a software license to be sorted out.
License error: You cannot use your software.

It's easier to pay for the software and download a linux distro where I don't have to deal with downtime waiting for support staff.

When City Power arrives at 9 am to replace a cable outside your business and they don't tell you...
So they shut off your power in the middle of that 6 hour long computer copying operation...
Then switch your power on and off again about 3 more times so that your computer are royally screwed up.
So you give up and shut them down for the morning - but then 20 new orders arrive by e-mail but you can't process them because the power is off.
Then, when the power finally comes back on, you turn on your computer and realise that a power surge has stuffed up your PSU and your computer won't boot.
So you slap in a new PSU and boot up again, but now it is 2 pm in the afternoon, and when your computer finally comes back on, then ADSL starts dropping every 5 minutes.

I just gave up and now I'm posting on Mybb when I can and playing Freecell for the rest of the day...

Scared of a void warranty.

I opened the casing with my bare hands, hooked up the drive to SATA, then places it back in the casing. No warranty void stickers were hurt during the process :D

Edit : That was on Seagate. Won't touch WD with a 6ft turd pole.

When I hand over my card to the cashier into her hand...and she returns it, as I hold my hand out, by putting it down on the counter top/signing top.
