It's amazing the way RJ just feeds Sokolove material.
I played in a co-ed slow pitch league a few years ago in Newport Beach. The lady play third played like we were playing fast pitch. She couldn't have been more than forty feet from home. Then, she starting talking shit. I asked her to move back saying it was dangerous to be there. She started talking more shit.
I saw the shortstop cringing and figured he was her significant other and suggested he talk some sense into her. She moved back only a couple of feet. I hit the first pitch right past her ear. The next time she didn't talk and moved behind the bag.
I had something happen in that league that I had never seen in all the years I played. I was playing LF. An opponent hit a fly towards me. As I moved to catch it, all of a sudden, all the sprinklers in the outfield turned on. I paused for a split second, then went after and caught the ball. They had to stop the game until the sprinklers went off.
My pet peeve is Twitter
I think my biggest pet peeve these days is when people "answer" product questions on Amazon or similar sites with "I don't know, I don't ..." Then why the hell are you wasting everyone's time with a worthless reply? Do these people think the question was posed only to them?
Not really a pet peeve, but people who leave a negative review because of things that have nothing to do with the product (e.g. shipping delays) are idiots.
If the ice cream shop is packed, and you're not a curious <10 year old, just pick the flavor you think sounds best. Same applies at breweries. Basically, slow ordering taste-testers are my biggest pet peeve these days.
This is correct. Adults don’t need to taste test ice cream. You know what it’ll taste like because you’re an adult. Grow up and place your order. Every taste test is another little plastic spoon in the pacific.
