Things that annoy you about the general public

[Eleazar]

I will start.

How about people who argue with a base level employee about a policy? The receptionist didn't make the policy. She can't let you in without an appointment. She isn't going to risk her job just because you're an idiot and can't follow the policy like everyone else, or because you think you're special and policies don't apply to you. Becoming irate is not going to increase your chances, either.

Well if they are running the red light, then so are you while making a left on red.

Forgive me, I don't take your meaning. My point was simply that when you go to a fast food place you should probably be prepared for low budget service.

Spelling aside was what I was referring to. I'm a sensitive SOB.

My point was I know how to order my food if I want it toasted I would ask. Subway thinks they invented the toasted sandwich. They always ask this as if they made a new discovery. If I brought a dog turn in they would probably ask if I want it toasted.

Besides that I just think its strange to want a cold cut sandwich warm and toasty. After all its not a hot cut sandwich.

douchebags what wear stocking caps when it's 90 degrees outside.

[GloucesterChief]

People who leave half a car length or more between their car and the car in front of them in the turn lane so that the line of cars in the turn lane spills out into the normal traffic lanes.

There are too many things to mention

Yes.

Don't ask me how I know.


Thought of another irritation -

People who think that because there is snow on the ground in the parking lot, it means they can park where ever the hell they want.

No, the left turner is going on yellow but when you see some asshole barreling down the road and it is obvious they intend to run the light you are stuck. Not the same thing.

JJs is a ton better than Subway. That was the point.

If you think Subway is better, then you probably enjoy turd sandwiches.

The lights are the same color. You arent supposed to go into the intersection unless you are able to complete your left hand turn. You have more of a duty to avoid the vehicle coming the opposite direction than they do to avoid you. They technically have the right of way, and will have the exact same color of light. If you both have yellow lights or both have red lights, you breached two duties by failing to maintain proper lookout while turning and failing to yield the right of way

Bullshit. Two cars go out to the middle on green. They go when it's yellow and another follows on red. City livin'.

whatever. Most people take notice of the person turning and they slow down to stop at the yellow. Assholes try to run it and create an accident.

and by the way, watch any cop out there and you will see they do the same thing because it is common courtesy.

Right on. Any deviation of this protocol deserves a punch in the face.

What's even worse is that there are a lot of people that just take the cart with them home because they don't have a car. I live in an apartment complex full of people who think the cart comes with the transaction. There are seriously at least 20 shopping carts in the parking lot at my complex of various stores in the area that never get returned.
