#405: Dumb Product Boasts

When I see products such as chocolate chip cookies that say "Made with real chocolate!" it makes me scoff.   Maybe in times when chocolate becomes so expensive, products are forced to use some fake ingredient to mimic it, then I can understand it.  But used now, it's just lazy marketing.  Similarly, burger chains that boast "100% all beef" are stupid.  Though in Europe with the horsemeat scandal, maybe it's valid there.  Severity: 2

#404: Dog Shirts

When I see a dog walking around with a shirt or sweater, I have a feeling of disgust hit me hard.  Maybe if it were in the 30s, I would consider this behavior acceptable.  But that means I should never have to see it in the bay area.  Just lame of people to dress up their dog.  Severity: 4

#403: Hotel Name False Advertising

I don't like when hotels try to trick people into thinking they are in a city, when in fact they are not.  A good example was one I saw in Emeryville that billed itself "Four Points San Francisco Bay Bridge".  The only reason to have that in the name is to make people think the hotel is in the city, when in fact it is not.  Severity: 2

#402: Bad Chrome Spell Check for "tommorow"

I not sure why Chrome has such a problem with my common misspelling of "tomorrow."  I always do it with 2 m's and 1 r and constantly am pissed when you right click the word with the red squiggly error indicator, it does not give you the option of "tomorrow", even though it's quite obvious that is the most likely word you are trying to write.  Microsoft is smart enough to get this, so not sure why Google has issues.  Severity: 3

#401: URL Refuseniks

When I give someone the exact web site address and they still will type it into Google rather than directly into the web browser address bar, the inefficiency annoys me.  Severity: 2

#400: Iphone "Conversation" Commercials

I sickens me to see the delusional self grandeur the actors indulge in by conversing with "Siri" on their Iphone asking about the weather and closest past restaurants.  "Sequences Shortened" is a disclaimer at the bottom indicating the apparently seamless process is really not so.  The one with John Malkovich is particularly disgusting and sad.  Severity: 5

#399: Hershey's Air Delight

I'm appalled that this company would dare to advertise this product as something good, when in fact it's just a scam to reduce the amount of chocolate they use in the bar.  Already they have for years shrunk bars and skimped on chocolate of their candy bars by reducing the amount of coating and now they are trying to pass this thing off as a good thing?  Terrible.  Severity: 4
