#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

#398: IPO Low-ball Pricing

I hate when companies price their IPO lower than they could get on the market, just so they can have the "glory" of a big first day pop in the market.  The stupid thing is that the main point of the IPO is to raise money for the organization and pricing the shares lower than they could get just enriches their friend who buy at the lower price and then immediately sell.  Of course, the fat cat insiders don't care since they have their shares already and they are locked up for a while.  A first-day pop should be seen as a failure in that the company did not get all the funds it could have gotten.  The recent lowering of the IPO for the Carlyle Group is what get me going on this one (even though in this case, looks like they made the right decision to lower the price, but it's a common practice.  Severity: 2
