Ten paragraph ads for vehicles accompanied by a 0.1 megapixel cell phone image taken at midnight. C'mon, man.

yeh - some guys use a highly polished shoe to visually investigate... ah, things above their feet

[GothingNC]

Drivers who hog up both turn lanes while trying to make a left turn onto a 6 lane intersection while people like me making a right turn are forced to wait 10 to 15 minutes.

There's not enough storage on the Internet for my list.


People who say Dat-ah instead of Date-ah

Dog owners with no control over their mutts - that seem to be under the distinct impression that their critters have a higher value than other people, their children and pets - that hardly seem bothered when their animals attack, scare and bite nearest available victim. An utter pest of society.

I think this is going to be a really long thread.

People who park in front of my house when they have an open driveway.
Food served lukewarm or cold in a restaurant when it is supposed to be hot.
Neighbors' dogs bark at me when I come out of the house. No I did not shoot at them first.
Indifferent customer service. US is way ahead generally than Canada in this, meaning the US has better service overall.
Hair in my restaurant food. Had breakfast yet?
People that tell my wife and I are sick because we are thin and they are grossly overweight. Do I have to tell the perp the risks of being overweight - hi blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, heart attack etc etc

Thanks for reading and listening.

People who spell "ridiculous" with an "e."

[snbush67]

Unnecessary usage of quotation marks.

[URY914]

People who think others do unnecssary things.

[snbush67]

Green text in lieu of internet mind melding to convey sarcasm.

I'm starting to be a grumpy old man. I nodded too many of these. A lot of mine can be boiled down to people being unaware of their setting or situation.

Here are some I noticed when i went out to dinner last weekend.

Waiters not serving children and woman first.
Waiters serving drinks by holding on to the rim.
Not clearing dirty plates.
Waiter standing over shoulder while write out tip.

The new improved U.S. Post Office, where the employees who work the counter can't communicate in English and don't understand the monetary system, but instead try to make small talk with every customer, because the new improved Post Office thinks people appreciate such sincere personal service.

The inexorable passage of time. Definitely a pet peeve.

My pet peeve weighs 300 pounds and sleeps by a door.

My ass hat neighbour who puts his dog outside at sunrise and lets it bark as much as it wants.
