	leandro_tami  +  55554 Tue, 16 Nov 04 04:00 AM I'm cheesed off when most people refers to the people who lives in the USA as Americans. I believe a truly descriptive word should be used to identify them univocally, since I'm American because I live in America (the continent), but I do not live in the USA. America isn't even the full name of their country. In Spanish, we have an adjective which is 'estadounidense' and I'm not sure if there is a translation for that word, but it means something like 'he or she who lives in the United States'. The funny part is that the USA isn't even the only United States in the world. As far as I know, also Canada, Mexico and Brazil are 'United States'. And they are also Americans!. It also cheeses me off that they usually differentiate South America from North America as if they were different continents. We are taugh that those are just political divisions. So, if I call them Americans, what am I? Asian? African? Maybe I'm Atlantean and I didn't know it. leandro_tami Joined on Mon, Nov 15 2004 Mar del Plata, Argentina Junior Member 68 Translation

	akiyo  +  55613 Tue, 16 Nov 04 10:53 AM This is right off the subject of countries but.. I, for one, especially get cheesed off when people claim they hate a particular thing in which they either become involved in/with. In other words, i really get cheesed off over hypocrites. I also get extremely cheesed off when people give off hostile/suspicious glances for no apparent reason when you're just sitting there, minding you're own business. >_They all suck! akiyo Joined on Tue, Nov 16 2004 australia New Member 16 the reward of pain is experience.

	Woodward  +  56104 Fri, 19 Nov 04 12:59 AM Probably something that really cheeses me off is when you leave something really yummy in the fridge and when you return to enjoy it, someone else has already gone and eaten it. Especially after having waited all day and resisted the temptation of eating it earlier. That's probably why they say 'Live in the present' (or in other words, eat it NOW before someone else does!)

	Novalee  +  72892 Tue, 08 Feb 05 04:40 PM Hi all, One thing that really cheeses me off is when I try to open a bottle or a carton of milk, the kind that are called "Easy opening". Well, it's not easy at all, because when you carefully rip it open, the milk spills everywhere, all over the kitchen counter and floor. This really irks me, so I always have to use scissors to open it, when, supposingly, they're not necessary. Similar to those CD wrappers, grrrrrrrrr.

	Mike in Japan  +  72958 Wed, 09 Feb 05 01:01 AM Hi Novalee, Should the scissors ever go missing, I caution against using a brick. It doesn't work with the CD's and probably won't with the milk. I may well be wrong. Good luck Mike in Japan
