^I hate slow people at the store^

That is why I have the business membership at the warehouse club. I get an hour before the general population goes in

How about the opposing traffic clowns who come across the dividing line into your lane when going around a cyclist, instead of waiting for traffic to clear like most sane people......freaking nitwits.....

Or the soccer moms in their SUVs who think they have to swing wide a foot into your lane to make their turn... Hey! You're not driving a semi trailer!

Motorcycle battery fasteners.......trying to get them on. No way to get a grip on the nut. Some bolts are long enough to get a start if you pry upwards under the nut lightly while turning the bolt.

I like the phillips head bolts as it's easier to use a screwdriver while starting them.

Then how many times do they shoot out and fall into the freaking abyss.....never to be seen again?

Manufacturers should have an attached nut that you just screw the bolt into - similar to how side posts work on cars and trucks.

Then there's the situation where + and - are on the wrong sides. Even though when you buy the battery - they never tell you.

I know....it's on me to perform proper due diligence.

Back to the "Every Man For Himself" concept.....
=========

Edit:

I should have said "Every Man (PLUS YT) For Himself". :D

Piece of tubing under the nut........not a bad approach to the above issue.....

Me.
I take my car in for service w/dog hair and trash.
Only after that do I wash wax and vacuum to make it nice again.

My pet peeve is cranky old people. Then I stop and wonder. Does complaining about them make me a cranky old person? ;)

Or... it's like they learned to drive in a covered wagon pulled by a team of horses. And it's not just soccer moms.

Sunday night dinner rush hour at a place in Ypsi. An upper mid-range joint. Not cheap and usually very busy. This guy was mowing the lawn and spraying clippings on our shoes. Couldn't hear a conversation. After the second time he dragged the clattery mower between the tables, I made mention to glazed eye management. Oh. Yeah.

People who don’t turn their lights on when it rains and people who don’t use turn signals. They should not be allowed to vote…

Having to communicate to someone who is behind a thick pane of glass.......and there is a little space at the bottom to hand papers back and forth.

At the tag office today.

Other people talking loudly - because they are also trying to talk "over" a freaking pane of glass.

So that makes it even HARDER to hear the other person.

I have decent hearing...but this BS is maddening...because there's really no need.

The old building......it wasn't like that......

Progress.....:rolleyes:

Sometimes it balances out.

Earlier in the day at Winn Dixie I was heading inside and noticed a lady in the parking lot finishing her loading - and she had the smaller sized cart, which I was going to use.

I made eye contact with her as she was turning towards the store to return the cart. Raised my hand and she shot the cart towards me and it came right to me straight as a freaking arrow!

Mankind finds a way sometimes......and she certainly held up her end of things.....I was impressed!

People in waiting rooms yakking away on their cell phones.......:rolleyes:.......

People posting AI creations on the Random Pics thread.

Radio stations that start playing Christmas music nonstop November 1 in order to save money over the next two months.

Pedestrians who leave the store with a cart and cross the approach roadway at an angle to reach their car...four lanes over.

Just go straight across and then turn your cart. Cars have to wait while they slowly take 30 yards to cross in front of them.
They are oblivious of the cars patiently waiting for them to clear the roadway.

I had this happen this afternoon at Menards and I could hear one of the other drivers shouting out his window.....and it wasn't "have a good day" :D

Every_Single_Foundation_Contractor who doesn't paint rubber sealant barrier two more feet up to the rim joist.

Don't come to CA.

I feel guilty if I don't 'pick-up the gait' when walking across the intersection. :)

Seat belt retracter springs. They must be made of bailing wire. A couple years and they just flop around.

(tb for the record your handywork is supreme)
