“The 12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaway: Day 21
[Thank you, we have our winner, this contest is closed. Congrats to faithful Macenstein reader T Sampson]
On the Twenty-First Day After Christmas, Macenstein gave to you (or, more accurately, gave you a chance to win…) A PED3 iPhone Stand from Thought Out Company.
Featuring 360Ëš rotation, two angled positions, elegant cable management, rubber tipped fingers, and a heavy, solid-steel “tip-proof” base, the PED3 is the ideal way to elevate your iPhone for video viewing, music listening, showing off for co-workers, or just for keeping it safe from desktop coffee spills. I’ve had mine sitting right next to me at the lab for over a year, and the tough baked-on coating looks as good as the day I first got it. This is a quality (and heavy) piece of engineering folks, and I hope no one overseas wins it, cause shipping will suck. Check out the full specs here along with a ton of beauty shots.
To enter: Since the PED3 is the coolest iPhone stand around, just leave us a comment telling us the one thing you CAN’T stand when other people do. We all know rude and annoying people (like Sean, my co-worker for example). So what is it that really annoys you about someone? Winner will be picked randomly 7 days later and notified (kind of like in The Ring, only with less killing… we hope). Open to all readers world-wide. Good luck, and thanks for reading Macenstein! (Oh, and be sure to enter ALL our “12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaways!)
Please note: Comments may take a while to show up, please do not double-post. Thanks!







blink their eyes
when people are hypocrites…
People who only repeat the lecturer and still get good grades!
People that I have to explain every detail to them, when delegating a task.
noisy eaters
I hate it when people start their sentences with “I”.
Wait a minute…
People who always have to know what other people are doing
I hate it when people sings… And I’m an orchestra conductor…
An annoyance to me is when people eat with their mouth open. I can’t stand that sound!!!!
when my co-worker put is monitor on my table…
Over talk me. That is so rude. Except when I do it.
When someone talks and foams from his mouth brrrrr….
smoke around other non smoking people
“…I hope no one overseas wins it, cause shipping will suck.”
Just for that, I’m gonna join in! Well, ok. I’m willing to put $5 towards the shipping if I win. Hope that makes you feel better. 🙂
Anyway, I can’t stand people who yawn without covering their mouth. I mean, come on. Imagine a beautiful sexy babe walking along. Suddenly she opens her mouth so wide you could stick 10 cigars (among other pointy things, of course) in. Reminds me of monkeys.
When someone replies, “Whatever.”
When someone is indecisive
Smoke around other non-smoking people.
raspy breathing from being large
don’t wash their hands after visiting the restroom. Gross
when people talk on a cell phone at the top of their voice on the train and annoy the crap out of everyone else.
Chew with their mouth open
When people say “Mute” instead of “Moot”. As in, “That point is mute”. argh.
when people say “See you next year” around new years. Its not funny because its not a joke.
I hate if someone talks to me whilst I’m on the phone…
when people are not genuine
wiggle their feet while they are sitting
making slurping noises when drinking a hot beverage
trying to convince me into their faith
…
cluelessness. especially on strong opinions that make no sense
I can’t stand people who yell into their phones. It’s a phone, not a fucking dixie cup.
Lies, damn lies.
smoke, smoke, smoke.
Drive badly.
i hate when ppl make make me answer question like this for a prize ill probley never win
You know, saying things like, you know, “you know” all the, you know, time. You know?
Give me a summary of a book, television show, or movie while repeating that they really aren’t giving anything away. Spoilers!
I get really annoyed by people who are pushy and persistent…
“Come on, have some of this, it’s really good and it’s healthy!”
people who laugh at absolutely everything
When driving, I can’t stand it when you let someone pull in front of you and they don’t give the ‘thank you’ wave. Makes me want to hit them!
whistle!
i hate people who chew with their mouth open.
I can’t stand it when people cook stinky foods in the company lunchroom, and the noxious odors fill the building. Like when your coworker boiled about three feet of kielbasa. Yesterday.
people who are running late
Chewing with their mouth open.
talking over you, repeating for the third time the statement you just aknowledged and viable, while you are trying to move forward with the conversation.
… making giveaways available only for one country… 😛
When they don’t keep their promise and break it through a text message.
Snorting.
Stupid drivers
forgetting where they’ve put something they use everyday
Tell me how the PC is better than the Mac.
smoke
