You know what pisses me off ?

The local Pennysaver pisses me off. Here is why.

In the old days when Pennysavers first hit the streets it was a place to read about cheap used stuff for sale-A PENNY SAVER-damn it. Where one shops to save PENNIES.

My gripe has to do with the 'Used Merchandise' section. Long ago for example one might find a used sofa for ten bucks or a free piano (Pick it up take it away it is yours forever) something cheap so that the shopper can save PENNIES.

Not anymore. Now in the merchandise sections are cool leaders for wonderful things and suddenly you realize the ads are promoting new stuff. For example a $5,000 living room set, like new, never been used, still in boxes. Only $4,000 and we can deliver.

If I had $4,000 to spend I would not be reading the darned Pennysaver.

You know what else pisses me off? Being suckered into reading that darned Brazillion joke.

What is it that pisses you off?
