Here's one I absolutely can't stand, happens to me almost daily in the Finder...

Suddenly, in the left column, an item I put there will no longer accept things being dragged into it. It's like, no thanks, not accepting any more files! Sorry! Go somewhere else. Very often other left column items will accept the drag, just not the one I want. It's absolutely 100% nut driving. I'm like, shit, all I'm doing is dragging a file from the desktop into one of my most frequented places... which I put into the left finder column BECAUSE I use it a lot. Nothing.

The cure is to close the window, reopen. I am sick, sick, sick of doing crap like that when stuff doesn't work right. Can't stand it.

LOL. Oh, crap. That's funny. Yes, technically that is making your misery my entertainment, but what the heck.

Tell me, brother thalo. Can the OS X Finder drive you to do such mental things as this?

LMFAO! It makes me want to do that to Steve Jobs. Hey, maybe after lighting it ablaze, AXE smells less like Hispanic gang banger!

There's some ingredient in virtually every men's cologne or aftershave now, that I can't friggin' stand. I call it "that hispanic teenager smell" but I really don't know what the heck it is. It's really hard to find a product on the market without it.

To me, the only scents worth a damn these days come from DIPTYQUE

They're toilet waters, which tend to be less cloying than cologne.

Wow... reminds me of stuff I run into on occasion. I don't use column view, but I run into enough trouble in classic mode.
