Peeve: The Padres being in the playoffs.

Sure they're my hometeam, and I have playoff tickets, but it's gonna suck when they get wiped out of the playoffs by the Cardinals or Braves. That's gonna suck.
I'm a Cubs fan, that should be enough to tell you about my disappointment.

I feel for you man, I feel for ya. Stupid Steve Bartman.

EDIT: I guess what I was trying to say earlier was that I don't want to go the game they get knocked out of the playoffs. Like in '98. When I went to Game 4 of the World Series. And had to bare watching the Yankees win.
Barf.

Because it makes it all that more fun to watch. What I do hate though are teams that spend $250 million because their owner is a greedy little you know what. I freaking hate Steinbrenner.

Another baseball-related peeve, but this one's more concerning FOX and the way they set up Saturday afternoon baseball. Because the 4 most important games of the day in the playoff races (White Sox/Indians, Yankees/Red Sox, Cubs/Astros, Phillies/Nationals) are all on FOX, we don't get any of them on MLB Extra Innings. Just the local FOX telecast of the Phils game.

Yeah, it's kind of a spoiled thing to complain about, but it kinda defeats the purpose of having Extra Innings when, on one of the most exciting days of the season, you can only see one of these four games, and don't have a choice as to which one you get. As a Phils fan, if I happened to be out-of-town and got the Yanks/Sox game instead (which currently is a blowout), I'd really be peeved. They ought to just have one select nationally televised FOX game on Saturday, like they do with ESPN Sunday Night Baseball, and be done with it.

Yeah, that does suck. Plus, my new peeve is the Yankees being in the playoffs. Not fun. Stupid Yankees.

Woo! Yeah! You tell 'em! I'm a red sox fan (Though not a die-hard fan) I don't really care about watchign the other teams, unless it's important to the Red Sox, which is when I just check mlb.com. I mainly watch online, anyways, as I don't ahve cable, so that Foxc thing doesn't bother me at all.

The way I see it.
Yankees don't win WS, the world is good. They do win WS, wait 'til next year.

I would like to see the Cardinals or the Padres win the Series.

Current severe peeve: The pain of getting a new adult tooth.

See, the last tooth I lost was my right canine. And I actually had to get it PULLED, because the adult tooth was growing in but it wasn't pushing the baby tooth out. Now I'm getting a bump above my left canine, and this is the exact same way the right-canine dealy started. Ultimate result: I'm gonna have to get ANOTHER tooth pulled.

Crap, crap, crap.

AND the bump above my tooth hurts, so I have to suffer the entire time.

OOH, wait until it's "Yank The Wisdom Teeth" time!

When I had my wisdom teeth pulled, I felt absolutely nothing going in, but then one of the teeth broke, and I was conscious for the rest of the procedure. No pain, but I had major jibblies.

Thankfully, mine wasn't too painful afterwards, either.

No, actually, my glasses broke when I was in Germany.
And then when we went to repair them when we came home, someone had misplaced them. And then we forgot about it for like, three months until yesterday when I got a new pair.

Yeah. I guess so.
It really wasn't that bad. I just couldn't read anything more than about six feet away. My eyes are pretty bad.
School's the hardest...squinting to read the board every two seconds.

Showering reminded me of another one of my peeves.
Dropping the soap. For me, it happens all the freakin' time.

Yes, that's annoying. Trying to grab it back is hard.
That's why I always have a toothstick in my bathroom!

Yup. Another anti-Yankees fan right here. Money can't buy everything, though, and the last couple of years have proven that.

I've got a new peeve against...Matt Wilson. I don't like his attitude. The guy just hates everything. He also barely pays attention to his forum, and people run free with spamming. I know you have a lot to do, Matt, but if you're the only moderator on your forum, you need to either check up on it regularly, or hire some new mods.

But I respect Bonus Stage.

Yep, I agree. That's why I left that place after one post.

Hey Ace. Bet your pretty peeved that mah Bolts beat your Pats. Hehe... 41-17. Making the Super Bowl Champs look like crap.

Anyway, my peeve is Houston's unexplainable ability to win the Wild Card every year, after having their first half be horrendous. Funny how it works, sometimes. But, because they won the Wild Card again, the Padres have to play/lose to the Cardinals in the first round.

I would be. With like, everyone hurt. When you lose to the Chargers, you aren't doing too hot.

The only one I think that's going to matter is Harrison. Bruschi is also missed. But keep in mind that the Pats were all banged up last year, too.

Methinks you don't give them enough credit. They won their division. Granted, it's an NFC division, but still.

AFC division, actually. I'm sure that's what you meant.

Peeve: I'm trying to take a week off from this place, but it's real hard. I just want to realize that there is a world beyond this place.

Aggh yes... don't remind me about the freaking Astros. Peeve related to that: If the Phils had won just ONE of the six games they lost to Houston, they'd be wild card winners. Especially the freaking game I was at where they blew it with two outs, no one on and Wagner on the mound. *starts feeling sick to his stomach while cursing David Bell's 'fielding'*

Trust me, I feel just as mad as you do. Since now, we have to play the best team in the National League. Fun. Sweep.

Peeve: Roller Backpacks.
I swear, this things are more of weapons than bookbags. Man, you could get seriosuly hurt by one of these tihings.

Oh yeah, somone else mentioned thjose, We have a three story school, and all classes except gym are on the 2nd or 3rd floor, so about ten times a day when everyone's walking downstairs, you so someone struggling to egt their roller backpack down the stairs. About once a day, and I ahve to admit I find this amusing, someone loses control of the backpack and it starts spinning, then they have to let go of it as it's twisting their arm and it rolls down a flight of stairs (hopefully not hitting anyone) Pretty hilarious, if you ask me, but I probably would have a different opinion if I got hit by one

Though they have run over my feet quite often.
