Because I'm on a rampage today...
It really bugs me when I want to read something online when I see a teaser, but then it will only give me a video clip of the story. I want to skim an article, not wait for a video clip to load and watch the whole thing. Grr.

I'm right there with you on that one.
And I hate the post-it notes on my newspaper at home.
I think I've only had that once or twice before, Boo. Are there Post-its weekly on yours?
Okay, I agree. Three times yesterday that happened to me and I got sooo pissed. It never even indicated that it was going to be a video which pissed me off even more. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
In this video-centric world I thought I was the only one bugged by this.
I don't want to watch the ads. I don't want to watch the broadcast.
I just want to read what happened. If I want to then see it happening I'll click the video link myself, tyvm.
Sign me up as hating the video only option. It dumbs everything down having to listen at the speed of talk. I can read way faster - and if I power skim I can get a comparatively huge amount of information in the same time it takes me to hear out someone face-talking.
*growls with Kim*
I carefully peel off those post-its while making a mental note to NOT buy or use their service in any way.
I also hate the little fold-out half pages they put onto my Sunday funnies. They totally mess up the rhythm of reading because they can't just be turned over. I carefully rip them off and throw them in the trash as Step One of opening the paper for a read.
Also - you're a very complainy person today! Here, have some rainbow sherbet... happiness in every rainbow bright bite!
Kim: It runs in spurts. It's so darn annoying.
