• I am ticked off that all of the county renewals and mailouts no longer list phone numbers for the agency. If by some chance you find a number, you wait 30 minutes and hang up out of frustration because no one answers. If someone ever answers, they refuse to help you and send you back to the website. Let’s just get robots and have better service.
• Hey, older moviegoer, I go to the matinee movies too to avoid the talkers and cell-phone users. I pick my seat from a grid that shows which seats are available for that showing.

• I’m ticked off at the jerks who drive around quiet neighborhoods on a Sunday morning blasting their radios as loud as possible. Narcissistic jerks to the core.
• To the writer ticked off at the World Cup players faking injuries and the boring games: I hear you and I can’t wait for real football as well. All of my friends think I sent that in.
