This is not a compunerdy peeve, but it does deal somewhat with computers. 
If you don't like that, you can just fuck off.

Peeve:  E-mail that comes in <no subject>.  If I weren't so 
conscientious, I'd ignore it for a week and THEN read it.  My cute 
rebuttal would be that there was other, more important mail that came in 
with a subject.  "If you didn't think enough of the mail to put a subject 
on it, I didn't think enough of it to read it."  But, I usually always 
read it anyway.

So just throw that peeve in with other time-sucking peeves.  <no subject> 
means I have to read most, if not all of the message to find out what it 
deals with.  Kinda like people who can't get to the point in a meeting or 
on the phone or the like.  They just drone on and on.  (Like me 
sometimes, actually.)

Feliz Ano Nuevo,

I guess you didn't take those folks seriously when they told you you'd go blind, 
huh? Here's a quick reference card for a slow reference boy: 

JZ - Short hair, short beard. (Although I will admit it needed a trim on Saturday) 
        Weighs in at about 228 pounds avoirdupois on a 6'0" frame. Noted for his
         blonde hair and blue eyes. 

Banta - Hair halfway down his back and a beard that should remind anyone of
             the last time you saw a ZZ Top video. Weighs in at a well-recorded 242
             pounds on a 6'4" frame. Dark brown hair and beard. No one has risked 
             getting close enough to his mouth to check out his eye color, although 
             many have looked for his much-celebrated eyelid scar.

Goof - Looks like Howdy Doody, only bigger.  

Don (Baldwin) - Hair just long enough to look like he can't afford to get it cut, 
                         with receding hairline. Moustache, unevenly trimmed. Might
                         be 6' if he ever stood up straight. Weighs about 200, I'd say. 
                         Dark hair (what's left of it...) 

Don (Pette) - About 5'10" with a moustache. I'd put him at about 200 pounds, too. 
                    dark hair, in your classic "hi, I'm a compu-valley employee" cut. At
                    a glance, I'd say he works out a little, but not a lot. 

Curtis -  Roughly 5'8" - looks like a college student with a big allowance. Maybe 140 
              pounds soaking wet. Looks like the "before" 
              picture in a Charles Atlas ad in the back of Popular Science. 

Jenny - about 5'6", dark curly hair. Bahstan Accent. Nice tits. 

The Boot - about 5'10", weight maybe 120. (since I slung her over my shoulder like
                 the proverbial sack o' potatoes, I'm pretty sure about this.) Dresses
                 conservatively, for a lumberjack.

Not peeveworthy? I find it hugely peeveworthy, mainly because various
people had apparently 'phoned the zoo demanding that the Vicious Killer
Man-Eating Lion be destroyed. Never mind the fact that the guy who got
attacked was apparently a nutcase and had had to climb two high fences
(presumably with "Danger - Vicious Killer Lions, Do Not Climb This Fence"
or similar written on them), and had spent the previous half-hour throwing
raw chickens at them to get them in the mood for a bit of carnage. Yet,
apparently these folk want to destroy the lions for the heinous crime
of...being lions. If you throw raw meat to a lion then climb into the cage
with it, you get what you're asking for.

You must've been watching the wrong news broadcasts - at least one of them
showed the lion-loony interaction, albeit not in very much detail.

Ahh... the destruction has begun, then.

As the 21 year old brother of a 5 year old boy, I may as well tell you,
It only gets worse from here, Jeremy. Your RugRat will begin teething
soon... and EVERYTHING you own will get chewed.

Then comes soft food. Ever try scraping hardened LiquiSpinach off a floor?

decided that my eyeglasses looked like an interesting perch and tried
to get on them from my shoulder.  This necessarily involved a bit of
free climbing as parrots are inclined to do - unfortunately in this
case the parrot decided that my eyeball would be a great toehold. 
This wouldn't be too bad except that parrots don't have toes, they
have claws, and the sensation of a parrot claw entering your eyeball
is exquisitely painfull.

I knew that reading news would do me in someday...

Yeah, well, whilst the posting may not have been especially

Look up the phrases "black humour", "outrage", and "false
bravado", and then keep in mind that the entire purpose of this

No-one, except possibly you, is likely to take Banta

The word ruminate, which technically refers to cud-chewing,
