I went to the Akron Rubber Ducks farm-team baseball game last week and was bludgeoned with noise. Nice newer ball park but the volume of all of the announcements, jingles/sounds, calling of the game was deafining. To top it off they sell these little emm-effing duck call toys that parents buy their kids and the kids blow into them non-stop and they are absurdly loud and annoying. Never again.
$10 for a big draft beer but that's a pet-peeve. lol

Same thing about our L.B. State baseball team. 12 oz beer 11 bucks +tip which he earned by topping it off 3 times. The rap music gets me.
But if you want a real vent how about the recession and the fact that all the dealers I repair for are in fear of closing. They sure were friendly when they needed me. But I knew who I was dealing with from the beginning. Antique dealers are used car dealers. I happened to have some good ones, but when things go south I'm the one left behind.
I've sat through recessions at least 5 times so I know what the next 2 years are going to be. All my tools and machines are for sale. I won't be in need of them when I'm 81 and things come back.
Old and facing a depression = get the hell out. How's that? One car gone and I don't need a truck any longer. It goes next. I've got enough moving gear for a small moving company but I'll be keeping that. It will be needed. Time to leave the sewer.
