Fashion victims…

  • Open-toed shoes that are too small - or too loose - and toes slip over the end and do that "panic grip" thing

In the office…

  • Companies that hire highly skilled people to do monkey work
  • Men who pee on the toilet seat and don’t clean it up.

On the homefront…

  • Toilet paper that rolls under, instead of over
  • Trashy homeowners who don't believe in "home maintenance"

  • Back hair
  • Toothpaste squeezed in the center
  • Neighbors whose fly-paper ends up in my flower beds
