It does...my daughter's spring break was the 2nd and 3rd week in March.

Packets of invitations. Always seem to come in packs of 6 or 8 for kids invites and always seem to be inviting 15-20 kids.

Would just go with a e-invite if everyone had included their details on the parents school directory

At least in the first one the animal could poop. The second one looks like an act of cruelty.

1st seems fine to me. Doggy is comfortable craddled in a bag , and if the dog is not trained properly it is safer to transport them like that.

2nd one looks very uncomfortable, bordering on cruelty due to rear end being covered.

J-Lo's new song. It's so bad, she needs to eat glass and stop singing.

People who link their twitter account to their LinkedIn account. Doesn't matter how many times it's mentioned....those people need to die. If your twitter account was interesting enough to follow in the first place, I'd be following you. If not, I don't care about your ramblings being mentioned twice, and for about your work stuff.

People who listen to pop music and expect it to be anything other than dire.

Commercial-popular recorded music was dire in the 1940's when it first started to take off, and has been dire in every decade since, yes, including the 60's. In every decade the interesting and creative music has been in the niches and underground "scenes", which have often been highly popular and extremely lucrative, but most mainstream pop music sucks, it always has, and I have no doubt it always will.

Rest of the top ten isn't entirely shit....just mildly annoying. It's hard to get away from it though because that's the only real choice, except classical, that gets decent reception in the car.

Plus it's all clearwater anyway and all the same stuff :/

US radio stations.
They don't tell you who they just played.
They play last years "hits".
They have the same playlist every two hours for months on end.
Very few of the presenters have any deep historical knowledge of music.

Sounds like Aussie radio. Mind you, I have no idea what UK radio is like these days.

I'd take last years hits...lol.. Local radio where I am seems to like decade old hits, sometimes even mid 90's hits, with a random new song thrown in, guess around town is they can't afford to play the new songs as much, or someone is just stuck in the past, not sure.

We have exactly 1 radio station to choose from....Too far from Vancouver to get the good ones.

I used to listen to Absolute Radio (was Virgin Radio) online/streaming until they decided to stop streaming to overseas listeners. Big pet peeve. Have now switched to BBC Radio 6, get my dose of Radcliffe and Maconie in the mornings.
