things that annoy you

[maddhatir]

We intentionally started my aunt's funeral 15 minutes late since she was never on time for anything.

Awesome!

 

[HunnyPots]

People who refuse to leave any details in their voicemail messages!
"Uh, this is me. I needed to talk to you. Call me back..."

Since I'm highly annoyed right now....you can have my list.

1) People who lie about the DUMBEST things...especially when it's so obviously a lie!

2) People who park in handicap parking stalls but then run in to the store. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but when they literally run in, or like yesterday, a family of HUUUUUUGE people got out and waddled in, I just wanted to scream "YOU'RE NOT HANDICAP....YOU'RE OVERWEIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!" (Don't be offended, I too could stand to lose some weight, so that isn't about their size...just their capability)

3) People who don't tuck in their pockets. I've been known to walk up to people and tuck in their pockets.

4) People who can't seem to get out a sentence with a bunch of profanity. Is it really that necessary? Do you realize that you sound beyond ignorant? And if there is a child in tow....even worse!

5) Parents who scream at their children. Quick story: My daughter (7 at the time) and I were at Walmart and there was this huuuuuuuuuge man pulling his little two year old along and she was crying and saying he was hurting her so he yelled "Shut the F up!!".....well, my daughter does not approve of that and walked over in front of him and said "You are entirely too rude and you should NEVER EVER EVER talk to your child like that!!!!!!!!!"

6) Drivers who are driving slow in the fast lane but as soon as you manage to pass them they speed up and ride your butt or get right in front of you!!!!!!

7) Rude customer service people. I'm sorry, but it's called "customer service" for a reason. If you hate your job, you should probably go elsewhere but you don't need to be rude to me.

8) Anybody who thinks they're entitled to anything

Not sure what you are talking about on this one...needs and example.

2) People who park in handicap parking stalls but then run in to the store.

(Don't be offended, I too could stand to lose some weight, so that isn't about their size...just their capability)

As you so compassionately put it...HUUUUUUGE people, as disgusting as that may seem to you, have some real debilitating physical problems, not the least of which might be knee problems or joint problems. This might be caused by the weight issue or the weight issue might be caused by the physical disability issue. I guess you would know that by looking.

3) People who don't tuck in their pockets. I've been known to walk up to people and tuck in their pockets.

Wow, that dangerously close to needing some serious counseling, don't you think?

4) People who can't seem to get out a sentence with a bunch of profanity. Is it really that necessary? Do you realize that you sound beyond ignorant? And if there is a child in tow....even worse!

Ah, one we can agree on. That is a rampent problem and shows a true sign of social downfall.

5) Parents who scream at their children. Quick story: My daughter (7 at the time) and I were at Walmart and there was this huuuuuuuuuge man pulling his little two year old along and she was crying and saying he was hurting her so he yelled "Shut the F up!!".....well, my daughter does not approve of that and walked over in front of him and said "You are entirely too rude and you should NEVER EVER EVER talk to your child like that!!!!!!!!!"

Yet another sign of classless, dim witted people that are allowed to procreate.

6) Drivers who are driving slow in the fast lane but as soon as you manage to pass them they speed up and ride your butt or get right in front of you!!!!!!

I think that must be currently taught in driving schools because it is everywhere. Another sign of brain dead disease.

7) Rude customer service people. I'm sorry, but it's called "customer service" for a reason. If you hate your job, you should probably go elsewhere but you don't need to be rude to me.

Failure to acknowledge just how rude customers have become lately can go hand in hand with that. When people demand someone's job because of some minor infraction, like they themselves are perfect people, I think that they over estimated what the definition of customer service really is.

8) Anybody who thinks they're entitled to anything

Welcome to the world of the entitled. It apparently is something that is guaranteed in the constitution. Mine...Mine...Mine!

Sorry but some of those observations were pretty over the top. Most were pretty reasonable.

Shop at Target, the number of screaming children and parents drops dramatically.

The one about the family that parked in handicap parking....I understand that some people have underlying issues but when an entire family gets out and the littlest who was maybe 5 or 6 looked to weigh a good 150, they have an eating disorder that will probably lead to knee and joint problems. What frustrated me was the fact that two stalls down was a regular parking stall.....maybe an extra 15-20 feet away. Things like that grate on my nerves.

*Tailgaters

*Idiots who slide in between you and the car you are following (and NOT tailgating) making you tailgate by default.

*Those huge mirrors on trucks that are so big they actually cross over the yellow and white lines.

*People driving huge RVs pulling a car, who should have given up driving the car several years back.

 

[BabyPiglet]

-Tailgaters

- People who see me coming, RIGHT THERE, feet from them, but precede to make that right turn on red anyways. Use common sense people, don't pull out in front of someone!

- People who chew near my face. I can hear all their smacking and swallowing and it grosses me out completely.

- Dirty fingernails, as my tag would suggest. It really, is not that freakin' hard to clean under your fingernails!

- Ignorant people in general.

- People who get irritated with me for driving slowly, when I'm going the speed limit! I can't help that everyone around me thinks they're entitled and are going 10 over; I follow the laws of the road, and if you don't like that, then pass me and get it over with. UGH!

- Ungrateful people.

I do not need Male Enhancement commercials when I'm watching the Office. With my 10 YO DSis and my parents. PS - they're also on Nick. They need to GOOOOO!

Kthxbi

i completely agree with these.
also, when im driving on a 2 lane road and there is a car in the lane next to me and some idioton a motorbike decides to go between me and the other car.
or when there are 2 bikes beside eachother in one lane.
motorbikes in general just annoy and scare me i guess.

 

[starwatcher]

-Unsupervised obnoxious teenagers
-People who are rude to cashiers at the market
-Phone soliciters
-People who blast music from their car so loud that your car shakes
-Screaming babies at the movies (this happened yesterday at Star Trek-why would you take your baby to a movie like that??)

I guess all of the above can be lumped into one thing: inconsiderate people

I took my 6 month old to star trek. She did not make a sound watched some of the movie and fell asleep. If she became disruptive I would have taken her out. I am not an inconsiderate person and I went to a early showing when children under 2 are allowed

Yes!!!! I understand that "Motorcycles are everywhere". I don't need my own state's Registry of Motor Vehicles to run an ad campaign - using my tax dollars - telling me that motorcycles are everywhere. I even understand that it's difficult to balance a two-wheeled motor vehicle in slow- or non-moving traffic. I do. I really do.

What is needed is motorcycle riders who realize that "motorcycles are everywhere" is NOT a free pass to make up their own lanes; drive on the broken white line; use the breakdown lane because it's empty; zig-zag into any and all open spaces no matter how small...

 

[Liberty Belle]

Loud people who laugh at everything they say even though it's not even remotely funny.

Maybe they have mobility issues because of their weight?

 

[Liberty Belle]

A person who tells you something or explains something, you acknowledge that you understand, then they proceed to explain it all over again like you're a complete imbecile. And you keep saying that yes, you got it, but they keep going on anyway.

Oh, I hate that!

 

[maddhatir]

or when there are 2 bikes beside eachother in one lane.

Cycles are allowed to ride 2 in one lane. Most of us do. People would not like if 2 bikes were riding side by side in 2 seperate lanes- then traffic would not be able to go around them. (if we did that, then someone would be on this thread complaining we take up both lanes)

Also we should ride staggered, not next to each other. We are taught to ride staggered in case there is a problem and need to avoid a hazard etc- you do not hit the bike next to you.

There are so many idiots cycle riders out there! Not to lump them all- but it usually seems like the "crotch rockets" like to think they own the road and ride like nuts

Last year a few of us were riding home in the rain. A group of CRockets zipped by us so fast it scared the crap out of me. They had no respect for the weather. A little ways up- we all decided to pull over under an overpass to wait out the rain. Well one of the racing bikes wanted to catch up to his friends and was speeding up approaching the overpass- guess what- he never caught up- he came in SIDEWAYS b/c he dumped the bike right in fron tof us! It seemed like they just slid forever!

Drivers who stop in the middle of a busy road to let/encourage children who are waiting to cross the street to go ahead and cross the street despite the fact there is oncoming traffic. Hello unless you can control the other drivers you never ever do this. It's incredibly dangerous and you are not teaching the children how to cross streets safely. I've seen this happen the last two mornings by two different drivers. Idiots
