The Official Complaint Thread!

the wind last night. Insane!  I figured I would wake up this morning to my house being about 10 feet to the right of where it was.

I blame Gangam style.

The song was catchy the first few times; now it's just flat-out annoying.

Just wait until whatever comes along to finally replace it hits and gets taken even further overboard.
 
Small complaint but When I dial a wrong number and nobody answers, what compels the person who didn't answer to call back later to find out who called? I mean, if I wanted to talk to you in the first place AND it was important, don't you think I'd have left a message? I don't know, I was polite and everything but I really had to force myself to not ask him what his problem was. He was kind of jerky about it.

While I agree Sarge to a certain extent, I guess it all depends on when you called. If it was an 11pm call and said 'wrong number' was sleeping(old fellows like myself generally go to bed at 9:30), my first inclination would be to call the person back to make sure it wasn't an emergency.

My least favourite is when a number texts me and just says "what's up"...and when I ask "who's this" they say "who are you?".....Well, I'm not giving my info out until I know that you're actually an acquaintance so take a flying leap....

Today I saw a Columbus Blue Jacket mascot video and a Stratford Festival video featuring Peter Mansbridge ripping it up "Gangnam Style"  :-[

This got me thinking what 'Gangnam Style' replaced and I come back to the Dougie'.  :-X

I miss the days of the 'Running Man' and the 'Hammer Dance'.  :-[

Well, in part, it replaced Call Me Maybe, in terms of propagation on the inter-webs.

I was thinking more of something that had a dance attached to it, but true.
 
Seriously, what are you guys talking about??

I feel like I'm so uncool because I don't understand your hip pop-culture references.

Here's the thing I don't get about it. It's ironic, right? Like, nobody I know has said that it's this popular because it's a great song. So our cultural appreciation of it is ironic. But is it meant to be ironic? Like, is he sort of like Korea's answer to MC Paul Barman? He seems to be really genuinely popular over there so I can't tell.

That makes it a weird issue for me. Because if our cultural appreciation of it is ironic but it's not meant to be ironic it kind of makes people who like it ironically sort of racist d-bags. But if it's meant to be ironic how can we enjoy it ironically? Then it just makes people seem stupid.
 
Oh, here's one. If, as a society, we've come up with Hot Dog stuffed crust pizza? Then, quite frankly, I welcome and encourage our society's slide into Mad Max style anarchy and brutal tribal violence.
 
Thanks Nik; now I'll never be able to get that out of my head. Couldn't you have just said "Bullfrog, it's best you don't know. Enjoy your ignorant bliss."?

Actually, I was just in Toronto two weeks ago and my friends brought me to a Korean restaurant in Chinatown solely to watch the K-Pop videos on the TV. This video is not any different than 90% of the videos they played.

The food, coincidently, was a serious let down.

Don't you cook your own food at Korean BBq restos?
 
That option is there for sure, but we had some kids with us so we decided to pass. There's a hot stove right in the middle of the table.

Thought you might agree, Peter;

If any NHL player ever Gangnam Styles on the ice, he should have to give 100% of his cut of Hockey Related Revenue to actual music artists.
