Crap. It is LCD. I knew there had to be something special to clean it with. Now I have an excuse not to clean it.

How are you supposed to clean a flat screen monitor? I dusted it, but it has spots...
On the other side, he is helping me dust. I just want to veg and my allergies are killing me, but the dust is disappearing. He is old enough, and careful enough to be able to handle most of my collectibles. I just need to teach him how to put them back properly.

bucket of hotwater with TSP for painted walls & wash from top to bottom suprising how filthy they can get.

And as for monitors use IB alchohol and amonia together. or just the alchohol and a clean microfiber cloth staying away from the edges.

My number one grip about unthoughtful roomate... Ok so you can't fathom putting a dirty dish into a empty dirty dishwasher... and It is impossible for you to take advantage of a hot teflon pans ease of cleaning morning egg residue with a paper towel. And you have to have a few personal items and all your junk out to ruin the chi of the common areas

But for the love of god do you have to use my nice chef knife to cut butter or cheese or whatever and leave it dirty... Come on!!!!!

Oh and this is great I went into my room wanted to watch TV but let him keep on with the ballgame he was watching and turned it on in my room too (shared Tivo sat box my room and livingroom) and I see him disregard a Tivo tapping so that he dosen't have to be inconvinanced to change tuners or just go watch it in his room he deletes my taping of family guy... yeah he has to go! I just am struggling with the devil you know plus kicking someone out makes for bad mojo living for awhile... Grrrrr

One of my Pet Peeves is:

Hogwarts Pet Peeves is missing from the films. I'm guessing that he doesn't have a major role in the last book, either.

Magazine subscription cards in magazines I already subscribe to. There's not just one, there's 5 or 19 or 300.

Also, magazine "renew now!" mailings when my subscription has over 6 months left on it. Ask me in March already!

TS - Roommates suck. But he is not a mind reader. Have you discussed your grievences with him?

Edit to remove stuff for another thread.

Government officials "erring on the side of caution".

Translation: We don't know what to do so we'll just do something so that you feel like we know what were doing.

Changing formats is a pet peeve of mine. Beta, VHS, SVHS, DVD, Blue Ray or whatever it's called. Bleh. I don't want to re-buy anything any more. Where's my iTunes-like download thingy for my computer for movies?
