For me, there are a couple right off the bat:


1. When I eat a salad, and the lettuce pieces are too big, so when I try to spear them with the fork it makes the rest of the salad rise up and spill out of the bowl, and then makes me get dressing on the side of my mouth when I try to eat it. That makes me so mad.

2. When I'm in a crowded place, and some people pick a choke point in which to stop and have a conversation, or they decide to stroll at half speed walking three or four abreast so no one can get around them. It makes me want to push them down and kick them.

In traffic, when any car in front of me does not practice proper gap control. Allowing gaps to form in the line limits the number of cars that can get through a green light. It also allows interlopers to cut in my line, either from another lane or from a side street.

I actually kind of have a soft spot for the lettuce thing, since it happened to me on my first date with my wife. She thought I was "cute" for smearing salad dressing on my glasses.

Using words that are either completely out of context or aren't even words to begin with...example: "irregardless"...it's not a word!

Valentine's day...too material and conditional...do away with it.

There's more, but I have to go...

That's the other one, is people who don't care to plan for an exit. It's like for some reason they aren't allowed to attenpt to get in position until they are a quarter of a mile away, at which point they force themselves in.

It's just downright being an arsehole. You think your time is more important than everyone else's, so you can't be bothered to get in line with everyone else. Or you're just so damned arrogant that you think everyone should get out of your way so you can move through as you please. STFU :cuss: :bang:

I was a passenger in a car with a guy one time whose philosophy was to stay in the left lane as long as possible. We were driving along, and I kept telling him, "Dude, my exit's coming up....Dude, my exit's coming up....Dude, I'm the next exit...Dude, that's my exit right up there...Dude, seriously. My exit is RIGHT THERE!" He waited until we were right on top of the exit and then essentially made a right turn across several lanes of traffic to reach the ramp. He honestly thought that was the proper approach.

I was in a fast-food pizza place a couple of months back, and there was a guy blocking my path to the napkins. I decided to wait him out rather than reach around him as he put parmesan on his pizza.

Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake annnnnnd switch to the second slice. I finally reached around him, and was tempted to tell him to just take the top off and dump the whole jar onto his pizza.

AMEN, thats the thing that pisses me off the most. People 20 feet behind each car while you're trying to make a left turn light or something and only a few cars can make it through in time. If people closed their gaps and payed attention then traffic wouldn't be that bad everywhere.

They aren't "driving slow." They are exercising traffic control.

Bob Dole really does have a problem with the "choke point" idiots at the store...especially the really considerate ones that leave their cart perpedicular to the aisle while they browse the shelf.

They've got about 10 seconds to react and clear the aisle after making initial eye contact before Bob Dole either rams their cart with his or kicks it out of the way.

On the chokepoint issue, I was in a movie theater a while back, and it was one of those big multi-level ones with escalators. The movie ended and we were taking the escalator down, and this group of women got to the bottom, stepped off, and then stopped to continue their conversation. I was up a little higher and was kind of intrigued to see how it would end up, but the people right behind them started yelling at them to move, and they did.

Just about everything listed here in this thread pisses me off.

Then there's the issue of driving the company truck, that will only go 65 downhill, with a tailwind, and passing up some MFer going slower than me, only to have him speed up as soon as he realizes that it's a slow truck passing him, then slowing back down as soon as I return to the right hand lane behind him.

Oh and the dumbasses that decide to signal that they are changing lanes, as soon as they have already completed the lane change.

people who walk into blockbuster pick out 7 or 8 movies and then don't even have a membership. Then they get their membership and fill it out all wrong and since they can't read or write their sig looks like a giant X. Then they complain they can only rent so much at a time, end up buy 100 dollars worth of complete bullcrap. Then try to pay with a starter check, all while their fing kids knock over everything screeming with only diapers on. Then get pissed because they can't bring their dog in. (which is better groomed than the kids)

That really pisses me off too, when the turn signal is part of the turning motion. It's supposed to be put on to display your intentions ahead of time. When you don't turn it on until you are already changing lanes you didn't really do a bit of good did you !?

I always signal when changing lanes, but maybe one time in a hundred I'll forget to turn on the signal for a right turn. (This usually happens when I'm concentrating on finding a street.) As soon as I start the turn, I'll realize I didn't signal, so I turn on the signal just to let people know that I tried. So if you ever see an apricot BMW signal during the turn, that's why.

People who speed up to pass you on a passing lane and then slow way down when they are in front of everyone.

People who speed up when you catch up to them while in cruise on the freeway.

People that wait until everything is rung up and bagged before they even start to root around for their checkbook.

Banks that have only one teller during the busy times. As a corollary to this, people that come during the busiest time with some super complex transaction and tie up the teller for a half hour.

The neighbor kid leaving the gate open after he leaves.

The choke-point thing, especially the rolling roadblock with some moron couple walking slowly side by side down the aisle, staring slackjawed at everything, like they've never seen the inside of a Wal-Mart before.

Hmmm, maybe I should have just said "people".

God, there are too many for me to list. If a day ever passes when something doesn't piss me off, it'll be a first. :grr:

But some big one are:

1. People who ignore courtesy. Example: if I hold a door open for a stranger, and the the f#cking c#nt simply walks through without so much as a nod or a thank you, like it's my station in life to be her f#cking doorman. That just makes me nuts.

2. Taxi-pirates. I'm standing on the curb trying to hail a cab, and some f#cking asshole (who looks right at me first) takes a spot 10' feet up the block and instantly gets a cab. The really bold ones will try to step directly in front of you when the cab pulls over. I've shoved a couple of them into the sidewalk (very rewarding experiences).

3. Driving slow in the fast lane. This is NOT irrational. These people simply need to f#cking die, preferably by being run down with their own minivans.

4. Assholes who don't use their turn signals, and feel the need to come to a complete stop before turning. Got a whole subdivision full of those douchebags. :#

5. People who shove their way through crowds with no consideration for anyone around them. I've shoved a couple of them to the sidewalk, too.

6. Telemarketers and solicitors. Don't bother me when I'm home. EVER.

7. People who won't replace the toilet paper or fill the ice cube trays (I married one of those). :banghead:

8. Mall zombies. I know what I'm shopping for, and if you don't GET THE F#CK OUT OF MY WAY! :#

9. Assholes at concerts who sing along (badly and loudly) with the band I paid good money to see. Shut the f#ck up, you trailer trash douchebag - we all know the words to Hotel California. Let Henley f#cking sing it. :#

I could go on and on, but why bother? People just suck!

That bugs me significantly. I'll say something. I don't have a problem embarrassing somebody, even myself. "Hey, could you move that conversation elsewhere"?

I have a road rage problem, too.

Finally, I get unbelievably pissed off when an ignorant dipshit emails me accusing me of mismanaging charity funds. If I ever catch that dipshit in a dark alley, he's gonna need quite a bit of charitable assistance and therapy to walk in the future.

Perhaps he just has exceptionally large lenses.

One thing that turns me into an instant asshole has already been partially covered. I cannot stand it when someone buys various lottery tickets in front of me and then proceeds to scratch them in front of me without giving me the opportunity to take care of my business. This will result in a GTF out of the way faster than any other transgression.

When Al Saunders calls a pass play on the one freaking yard line when he has Priest Holmes in the backfield, behind the best offensive line in the league. I get even more insanely pissed when the pass is intercepted. Greatest single season TD scorer in the history of the league, and the guy wants to pass for the score.

GIVE ME A F***ING BREAK AL SAUNDERS.

Dude, seriously. Gun sits up there in the box with him. He should just turn to Al, and kick him squarely in the nut sack every time he does some dumb shit like that, especially when it ends up costing the team points. Like Gun's job isnt hard enough already.


Lets F around and NOT score a td this time!! Come on, itll be fun!! Dont you get bored just seeing Trent hand it to Priest for the score? Wheres your sense of adventure?!!?

Ah Look!! The pass just got picked and returned for a defensive score! This is so exciting!! I think I need a kleenex!!

F*** you Saunders, you stupid F***. Just run the F***ing ball already. We know you get the high hard one with the passing game, but keep it under control and just get the score. Its Priest Holmes. How close do you have to F***ing be before you trust him to get the TD?!? Everyone and their brother can know the playcall, they still wont be able to shut it down every time.

In no particular order:

1. People who drive in the left lane, at the same pace and dead even with, the person in the right. Both of which are driving 10 MPH under the speed limit.

2. Dicks' Sporting goods, Galyans's, etc....charging $7.97 for a box of 50 rounds of ammunition! Are you f*cking kidding me?!!!!! Time to invest in reloading equipment.

3. How gas prices mysteriously go up on Thursday night, and during holidays. They go up in the winter because "demand is low", and go up in the summer because 'demand is so hight'. Which is it? I need to install a Flux Capcitor on the Wrangler that runs off of garbage.

When I have to constantly weave in and out of children that have been turned loose by their inconsiderate parents at busy shopping places, I lose it.

I really don't get that mad at the little one, but I tend to shoot the parent an evil look.

Yes. Sam's Club pisses me off. They have someone "check" to make sure you are a member when you come in. It doesn't matter if you aren't a member though, you can still come in.

Then they check your card at checkout.

Then no more than 15 feet away, they check your cart. This is especially frusturating when there is only one "checker" and there are 10 carts trying to get the hell out of there.

I heard that legally you can just leave, unless they have reason to believe you shoplifted. I thought about trying that, but I comply with their stupid rules.

When people drive slowly around a parking lot for 5 minutes looking for a closer parking space while there are 500+ empty parking spaces less than 100 yds further from the doors. This is particularly bad at Wal-Mart and Target type stores. Usually the people who do this could use the extra walking anyway.

On the subject of parking, I park in a downtown parking garage for work. I drove the BMW the other day, and on the rare days that I drive it to work I always park in this one out of the way spot in the garage. It's for small cars only, so the spots are tiny, and it's ironically a good place to park because the spots are so small that no one wants to park there. It's an interesting phenomenon, because the perceived risk of getting door dings is so high that the actual risk is very low.

So of course, I park there, get out, and just as I reach the stairs, I look back and see a Ford F-250 or F-350 come up and pull in next to me. The only good thing is that I think his door swing was over the top of my car.

Last night when I left the office- we have these two turn lanes that flow onto the highway. Well, there's another lane coming from the opposite direction that merges onto our lane- this lane is CLEARLY marked by a yield sign. Anyways, we have the green light and all of us are turning onto the highway when this smack comes from the opposite direction totally ignorning the yield sign and tries to cut us all off- I didn't speed up or anything- just kept my usual pace knowing he wouldn't make it.

Suprisingly enough he continues to merge, blowing by the yield sign, and nearly sideswiped my car. He managed to squeeze behind me and the car that was behind me. We get out on the highway a few moments later and he has the fuggen audacity to flip me off! What an azz. He failed to fuggen yield to the turning traffic and it's our fault. I seriusly thought about stopping my car right in front of him to get out and tell the dumbazz that he blew by a yield sign and to stick that finger up his azz.

That only occurs when you put cheese on as the bottom layer. The cheese slides with the sauce beneath. Nearly all of the major franchises use this method 'cause they can do a whole pizza with less cheese.

The layer of cheese should go on top of the ingredients so when you bite into it, you get everything and the ingredients act as a barrier between the sauce and the cheese. It's also more delicious this way.

STATE OBTAINS VICTORIES IN TWO MURDER CASES
BEFORE SUPREME COURT

Denver-- Attorney General Ken Salazar today announced that the State prevailed in two murder cases in rulings handed down by the Colorado Supreme Court.

In People v. Dunlap (Case No. 00SA191), the Supreme Court rejected Nathan Dunlap's appeal of the trial court's rejection of his motion to reduce his death sentence and the additional 113 years imposed for his first degree murder and other non-capital offense convictions in connection with the Chuck E. Cheese murders in 1993. In seeking a reduction of his death penalty sentence, Dunlap argued that "additional" evidence of his bad childhood warranted a reduction in his sentence and that the trial court erred in not granting a reduction in his death penalty sentence.

The Supreme Court ruled that under the law in place at the time applicable to the Dunlap case, a trial judge cannot reduce the death sentence penalty imposed by the jury absent lack of evidence supporting the sentence. As the trial judge specifically found sufficient evidence supporting the death penalty, and the "additional evidence" was virtually identical to evidence previously submitted to the jury, the judge is without authority to reduce the death penalty imposed by the jury and properly denied Dunlap's motion. Assistant Attorney General Paul Koehler argued the State's position before the Supreme Court.

Clearly it's while Im driving...Ive fallen into a sense of 'paranoia' at times believing that every car around me is just there to merely screw up my drive to wherever Im going.

More basically, though, it's just general idiocy. Not reading and following directions...as I watch people, many are unable to navigate themselves unless they're herded with 'cattle' ropes.

If there is a line for anything, these morons walk up to the front of the line seemingly oblivous to the fact that there are others waiting their turn.

These same idiots somehow managed to bribe someone at the DMV to get a license and thus drive in a manner that drives me insane. I dont ask for much, if you cut me off, dont slow down and driver slower than I was. If you're holding up traffic, move out of the fugging way. If you prefer to sit at stop lights, move yourself out of the way so those that wish to continue to travel through the green lights can move. I'll not even get into the 'Im lost and I must go 20mph oblivious to traffic while I find the street Im looking for'.

Dealing with morons is the most insanely frustrating thing I know of.

I have two highly irrational triggers for anger:

1. When someone (regardless of their gender) holds open a door for me, but I am just far enough away from the door that I feel the urge to hurry up since they are holding it open. That infuriates me. The other day, I was at a restaurant and I was still walking across the parking lot, and this guy sees me coming, and he just stands there and holds the door open. Gees...so I pretended not to notice and entered through the door adjacent to that one.

2. When the straw wrapper won't slip off easily, and I try tapping it on the counter and it causes the straw to bend and break slightly. Then, when I am sipping my Diet Pepsi, I have to suck harder than usual because the soda is slipping out of the hole.

Don't gripe at me....I realize it's all irrational.

The last 4 blocks of my commute route is on a bus route. About 1 out of 5 times I end up behind the buss. The road it travels on is narrow and bumpy so that the bus goes about 7 mph for 3 blocks. There is a traffic light at the point the bus and I diverge, and the bus inevitabley causes me to miss the light.

Usually the bus is completely empty. Sometimes there is 1 person on it.

For me it is when people park across form each other in the grocery aisle with their carts and then walk several feet away to get their products, spending what seems like hours comparing brands, reading sodium content, and total fat or somehting, meanwhile everyone is waiting for one of the inconsiderates to move their cart so others can get by. Then to add to frustrations, as soon as one moves their cart, some impatient person behind you rushes around you and the person coming the other way does the same thing and you have a massive cart jam on aisle 5. The other things is when people don't merge when they have a chance and instead drive as far as they can before they absolutely have to merge so they can get like 2 or 3 cars ahead of where they would have been. I tend to NOT let these people in, especially after they ignore the space I tried to give them to merge before. Oh yeah, and whenever I see ANYBODY in Broncos apparel.

I tend to relieve my stress by driving slow in the left lane. It makes me feel good to know that I'm stopping people from violating speeding laws.
That hangs it. I'm cheering Godzilla from now on.
