You using the right brand of Scotch? The new ones run cleaner/smoother on an Islay.

Bumped into Mark Mothersbaugh about three times tonight during and after his Myopia show here in Cincy. His show is something to see and he's super nice

Lady in line at Chipotle let me cut in front of her because she had 5 orders.

People with a handful of items who wait ten minutes in a cashier line at the grocery store rather than going through the self-checkout in 30 seconds. Used to be more of a pet peeve, but now I amuse myself by speculating as to why each person does that.

Peeve judo, baby

When they first put those up there were so many bugs that the traditional route was faster. Took a while before I tried it again but it's still screwy because if somebody isn't there to check your ID you'll be waiting a bit to buy beer.

They don't even let ya buy booze at the self check out anymore here. Total bullchit.

those machines suck. they still have glitches and 75% of the users have more than the allowed amount of items or they're so clueless they don't even know where they're at.

i'm 50/50. sometimes i just want to look at my phone and be served

same here. can look at pretty girls instead of paying attention to the machine telling me that a employee has been noticed, or to put the item in the bag.

Fugging love the self check out. Only flaw is the no booze thing. Almost never buy booze at the grocery store anyway. #chittyselection

I just dislike the weirdos they hire as a token service to some special aid center, packing my stuff.

Espc when they try to make token conversation. "Eyes down Rocky Dennis!"
