Most better chess pieces have felt bases. I consider getting a new chess set, but as a vegan I do not want to use animal products. Felt is often, but not exclusively, made of wool. What are felt bases of chess pieces made of?
*flailing gesticulations of anger*

Vegan powers!

Steam grinds my gears.
When you're in another country all of a sudden it'll forget that you pay in USD and switch currencies (after being logged in for a certain amount of time). The games are more expensive in pounds, and not just because of exchange rate to NZ, conversion to USD also leaves a fair few dollars unaccounted for.
Steam community (thus your wishlist) always displays in foreign currency.
But even when you do check out in your normal currency (USD) you get all the way through, then pay after checking currency, then the reciept screen... suddenly $35USD is 35GBP and you've apparently spent twice as much as you intended/needed to. So off you go in a panic to check your NZ bank account, and thank fuck it's only charged in USD ($40NZD as opposed to $70), but that's a serious wind up.

People who ask a question despite the answer being right in front of them. Quite literally.

Today I had some fucker ask how long a report would take to load... My response in the end was "quite a while if you don't click the button to run it"...

And anyone who uses the word "Pig" to refer to cops. Grates me really badly.

I hear he waits for the courier then runs to the shower quick so he can then yell hang on and then run to the door in just a towel and catch the courier unaware...

Lazy fucks that won't do their own job.

I mean, why do your job when you can complain to IT and get them to do your job for you?
Just blame the system for your incompetencies.
It's a flawed system anyway, so hopefully no one will notice.
