Chatting With A Co-worker
R. Alex Whitlock
[note, as far as I know the co-worker had nothing to do with the coke cup – and my tone was more lamenting than accusatory or angry.]
RAW: [picking up cup] You know, it’s bad form for someone to put a coke cup in the trash can without emptying it out.
Co-worker: Is this a pet peeve of yours?
RAW: I think I've just discovered that it is.
UPDATE: Apparently I'm not the only one with this pet peeve. Got a memo on this just today:
I have been asked (kind of) to ask you to not throw away soda or any other type of liquid in the garbage’s anywhere. It makes a real mess for the cleaning people because it leaks through the bag. Please dump it in the sink or something. Thanks so much!
Observations
I wouldn't call it a pet peeve, but it's a definite nuisance.
If you want a pet peeve, how about people who don't ever clean their mouse?

Comment spam is an ongoing problems that we're trying to address. Previously we required people to create accounts and log in. I am thankful to say that is no longer the case. We're giving Captcha another try and are playing around with a text-based Q&A variant of Captcha. So bear with us as we try to figure out how to best get a handle ont he problem. Please note that any comment on a post more than 30 days old will go into the moderation queue, where I will get to it when I can which could be once a week.
