Alot of stuff shits me today :)
clerks who ask, "Did you find everything okay?" without any intention of helping you out if you say no.
Lazy co-workers.
Assholes driving little imports WAY too fast.
Lack of common courtesy.
People. All of you motherfuckers.
Especially the incestuous ones, I suppose.
That and writers who can't distinguish one homonym from another... verbally, they've wrought rot.
I find the shit that dangles because of some inadvertently ingested hair particularly annoying.

1. Those kamikaze perfume women in the stores.
"You spray me with that, and I'm punching you in the tit."
2. People who wait until their groceries are completely scanned and bagged and THEN decide to whip out the checkbook. And to add insult to injury, they say "Oh, I was going to pay by check anyway. I just wanted to know how much. Who do I make the check out to?"
HEY COCKSUCKER!!! You knew you were paying by check, so fill the fucking thing out BEFORE you get to the register! And who to make it out to? The El Segundo Wine and Liqueur Exchange? Nooooo. ShopRite, you shitwit.
3. Assholes who take 10 minutes to decide what to get a McDonalds.
The menu is the same as it was yesterday. Decide already.
"I'll have the lobster bisque, a blackened catfish fillet sandwich, and a Rum & Coke."
4. There is a price on the item. That is the price.
"Excuse me, the price tag says $10. Is that the price?"
"Whadda think, toots?"
5. "Hey, your phone line was busy. Were you using it?"
"No, asshole. Tarzan needed something to swing from..."
6. "Excuse me, are you on line for the ATM?"
"No ma'am, I'm just waiting here for the stimulating conversation."
7. ATM service fees. ATM means Ass-To-Mouth.
They shove their dicks in your ass, and then force you to clean the shit covered dick with your tongue and expect you to smile for the chance.
8. Women who wear the skimpiest clothes possible, and then call you a pervert when you look. If you didn't want people to look, then why draw attention to yourself?
9. Poseur goth shitheads. "Oh. life is so horrid, I must wear black and be a miserable self-centered ass." Go ahead, ya schmuck. You want to off yourself, feel free to do so. All you're doing is keeping me employed.
10. Smug salesmen. "I'm sorry sir, we don't have that shirt in your size. These are more for slimmer fit people." Fuck you, asshole. I'm not the one working a minimum-wage paying slow death.

Right now, people who, in a discussion, refuse to clearly answer a direct question.
If you don't know, "I don't know" is an answer. So is, "I was wrong". I say both all the time... it is cathartic.
What people tend to so these days is the equivalent of "look over here!", makes them look crazy.
"Carnys..you know, circus folk." ;-)
And my annoyance du jour... People who think I want to hear their phone conversation on the bus to work. If the person can't hear you then wait until you get off the fucking bus to talk. I REALLY don't care to know what your "friend" did last night under the influence of whatever narcotic they had.
Having a shirt with a stiff tag in the neck. It's scratchy.
Going to a Target/WalMart that has thirty checkout aisles, five of which are actually open.

People who say "anyways."
Who said lazy coworkers? I second that.
The idea that life must be violent, we must live guarded and afraid to be human (yeah, I know that is just the way it is...it just annoys me.)
Yeah, "anyways", "proactive" and, the big one "irregardless". Use that last one and be forever an idiot in my eyes.
People who go shopping within a half-hour of store closing. The employees have a life, they'd like to close at the posted closing time, not wait another half-hour until you've decided which package of ground beef you want.
People who think laws and rules don't apply to them. That includes waiting in line, stopping at stop signs, demanding service during lunch, etc.
Also goes for walking into a restaurant a half-hour before closing with a large party.
people who don't park parallel between parking spaces; or take up 2 parking spaces
credit card offers and other shitemail that say "Please do not discard" on the envelope. What am I supposed to do, wallpaper my bathroom with it?

Justin did try to hook up with me, but I was doing an inventory of my health & beauty shelf.
What annoys me? Stupid people mainly. Specifically today, stupid old women in the health food shop:
SOW#1 - They say it's going to snow tomorrow you know
SOW#2 - Oh you are a ray of sunshine, what do you want to say that for?
SOW#1 - No, they said it on the telly, going to snow tomorrow
SOW#2 - Better make sure you've stocked up then
SOW#1 - Oh yes, that's what I've come in for - sugar and prunes. My canister is nearly full but I thought if it's going to snow I better stock up. But they've run out!
SOW#2 - Run out?
SOW#1 - Of prunes dear, they've run out. Probably because it's been on the telly that it's going to snow.
Argh.

Bank fees.

Please. Get your ass to the local credit union immediately. Any credit union. Here in the upper left hand corner, the membership rules are extremely lax. You can find one, and "pay yourself" those fees.

I missed this one! One time somebody wrote to me that something I had written in an email was "inciteful." My first thought was, oh, brother. My second thought was, hey, maybe it
should be a real word. "The mayor's speech was so inciteful that the crowd rioted."
Please. Get your ass to the local credit union immediately. Any credit union. Here in the upper left hand corner, the membership rules are extremely lax. You can find one, and "pay yourself" those fees.
My credit union requires, (which is the legal requirement) that you live, work or pray in this county. Walk in and pray for an account.
I have noticed, however, the credit unions with new laws and expanded territory, are starting to act more like banks than they used to. :(

I did - a long time ago.
The trouble is, once banks started charging fees, many other places started doing the same. Including some credit unions.
And the most annoying thing is that you can't charge the banks fees when THEY stuff up. Oh would I love to slap the bank a $40 fee every time they make a mistake like depositing the cheque in the wrong account!
The fee schedule I would like to see:
Bank deposits cheque in wrong account ... $40 (if details were correct on deposit slip)
Cheque bounces because bank deposited cheque in wrong account ... $100 (if details were correct on deposit slip)
Document handling fee for promotional brochures received in mail ... $5 per page ($10 minimum)
Bank places your information on a mailing list ... $30 listing fee
Bank sells your personal information to a third party ... $10 disclosure fee
I think Americans have a good term for what bank fees are like - "nickled and dimed".

People that stand on the toilet instead of sit. Shoe prints on the seat, missed targets, etc.

People that can't figure out I don't want to talk to them.
The people at the gym who are out to hurt themselves or someone else and the people who do exercises in a way that will offer no benefit whatsoever and the people that give absolutely incorrect fitness advice. Oh, lets not forget the fucker that monopolizes the only 40-degree incline leg-press machine for a god-damned hour. Also, the ass-munches that don't understand the concept of letting people "work-in" sets while they rest.
Another gym-related gripe: the old chicks with very obvious fake breasts that wear very tight, revealing clothing--I don't need to see the scar from your cesarean section. I'm glad they're proud of their bodies. But bitch, unless you want me to show you my scars and stretch marks, put some god-damned clothes on.
muahahah grumpy much today Grant????
I could make sour remarks about ageism and preoccupation with personal appearance . . .

Salespeople who don't have the slightest bit of common sense.
If I walk into a store with headphones on, and the music is loud enough to hear it five feet away, why ask me a question?
My usual response is, "Do you see the headphones? Do you hear the music? It means that not only can't I hear you, I don't want to hear you. Now, be a good little asswipe, toddle off and play in traffic."
I'd like to make a comment on behalf of all the other salespeople here.
Not all of us are stupid, even if we do work in retail.
Thankyou for your time.

Do they? I must bug the hell out of them then, I've always answered it as a genuine question!
Today I am mostly being annoyed by my own lunch. Or my own inability to make it, I'm not sure.
I tried to make myself California style sushi rolls today. No, I didn't need to look up a how-to site, it was obvious how to make them! Bamboo mat to roll them on? No, of course I didn't need one - I'd do it at my desk!
I had hoped that once I'd gone to the trouble of cooking the rice - 20 mins, opening the tuna & mixing with horseradish (no wasabi in town) - 5 mins, and then assembling - 5 mins, I'd be popping perfect little rounds into my mouth as I carried on working.
OH NO. Sushi wanted to play unwinding games...
So I ended up shovelling it in with a fork and chasing stray grains all over my desk like an anteater...
I might as well have eaten it all separately, would have been less time & effort.
I don't like it when my food misbehaves. Like when crackers & crispbreads snap in my hands and shed their precious cargo on my desk, or pizza topping slides off in one go and flaps burningly on my chin, or soup gives me hiccups. I feel it breaks some fundemental contract.
You find bugging annoying?
Ignoring emails and phone calls. If they'd bug my calls, at least I'd know
they were listening!
That reminds me. Hopeful vendors who call me to sell me crap I don't want and then expect me to pick up the phone and talk to them. Or return their voice mail. Or e-mail. Please take a hint. I have never returned your call. I won't be buying anything from you. Stop wasting your time and my time.
I've said before, I pre-screen my calls with caller ID. It's beyond me why they keep it up--maybe they get paid per phone call. I can give you the names of three or four companies that just keep calling and calling at least once or twice a month in spite of the fact that I never answer and never return their calls. I've never been a sales droid, but I always thought part of the required tool set was knowing when you have a cold lead so you don't waste time on a hopeless situation.
The one time I did, against my better judgement, talk to somebody who came by selling something I needed to buy, it ended up ugly. (short version: me: "I need A and B." him: "Pshaw. Why would you want that? Nobody does that. That's silly. [wait 1 week] Hey, are you going to buy it?" "No." "Oh, OK, can I ask why not?" "Because you don't want to do A and B." "OH OH NO NO WAIT I changed my mind!!! We'll do it!")
Now, that reminds me of one:
Coca-Cola Corporation and their "reward" points program. But that's another thread I will start some day, if they continue to refuse to answer my questions more like humans and less like robots.

I was going to reply that I was so sick of seeing her on everything about the baby and stuff, then reread your post that she is dead. Strange strange situations surrounding that girl and her life.

Year before last I had a trick-or-treater who was on her cellphone the whole time and just opened her pillowcase for me to drop the goodies in. I refused to give her candy and she got all huffy and said "but it's my sister!" Oh, that's OK then. :rolleyes: (I refused one smoking too, but other than that I give them all candy -even the adults not in costume. If you're that desperate for candy, have at it....)
Hey! Rotate that finger!
I have not yet summoned up the nerve to offer the adults accompanying trick-or-treaters either disposable razors or candy in a razor blade box.

Warning - this is very detailed and very petty
REALLY annoying me today is some people's attitude toward admin staff. They seem to think "and other other duties that may be required blahblahblah" on our contracts mean we can be dicked around in a way they would never think of with staff on the same grade as themselves.
Case in point.
When our new CEO decided to move into the office with the best view in the building (previously occupied by my Manager) he decreed that the furniture in the lobby on this floor should also go.
My department had a long, low cabinet which was in the lobby because there was no room for it in the open plan office. There is another grumble about moving the team into a space which will only fit the people and not the paperwork but I'll leave it out. This was a smart piece of furniture in exactly the same bland design as the round table and chairs that were allowed to remain. It also gave people somewhere to sort the printing/ photocopying from the machine opposite.
So, a very useful piece of furniture, and one that I only heard would be moved on the Friday because I was working late. I stuck my nose in, put my case and actually thought I'd won.
Nope.
Came in Monday, cabinet gone.
After about an hour I tracked down the person responsible for the move, who grumpily informed me that he'd been just about to call me (yeah right). My cabinet was on the 2nd floor (I work on the 6th). Broken. Dropped by the movers and now the sliding door was jammed shut. All my material had been stacked in the storage area behind Reception.
I was pretty mad at this, but decided in the bigger scheme of things I'd probably best just let it go. He was supposed to be contacting the movers for damages and in the mean time would look at it himself to see if it was something he could remedy. Two emails from me regarding the cabinet went unanswered.
FFward to today - I get a phone call from Reception. The office manager wants the storage area to be used only for stationery and not to be a dumping ground for various departments' miscellany. I am now tasked with finding somewhere to store my material - it has been suggested to me that if I clear out the cupboard on this floor (which was already full when we moved here because we were the last department to move) I might be able to fit it all in. :right:
Why am I expected to waste my time on this problem caused solely by other people?
Why should I have to find space? I had a perfectly good space before.
Why should I have to load up 2 trolleys worth of material and haul it round the building?
Exacerbating this is the fact I've already moved the boxes of leaflets we brought with us from the other building 3 times. Once because they were stacked around our desks and a member of another team wanted to hot-desk in our space (we are currently understaffed so have more space than people). They were then stacked against the wall but apprently the new CEO didn't want any boxes on the floor when he moved up. Then the storage area I co-opted was turned into a "quiet/ prayer room" (which is never used).
Just because I'm not a pharmacist or a technician doesn't mean I'm a bloody serf. I may work with paper but that doesn't mean I need to be the one to move it around.
I'm also sick & tired of having people come to me and say in a blase fashion, "Oh the copier has run out of paper..." or "I think the printer is jammed...." What? Oh sorry I forgot that I graduated from the Hewlett Packard Academy and are therefore more qualified than you to get toner down my top or fill up the paper drawer.
Stuck up, short sighted, grade-ist arseholes.
I will feast on their egg heads the day the revolution comes.

No really, I am very patient and it drives people nuts. I don't drive any longer, but it was most evident then. Insurance tests show that drivers that speed don't arrive any faster than those that do the speed limit (they just tear-up their cars quicker, get into more accidents, and get to the next red light/stop sign before you do so you can waive at them when you get there). On a 70 mile trip on the interstate, speeding ten over gets you there five to seven min. earlier... just not worth it. Getting a ticket takes longer than that.
I do the speed limit, let drivers in, let people pass me, get out of the way from the fast lane when others pull-up behind me, don't park illegally, etc. Never had a ticket of any kind.
It drove my father INSANE. When I asked him why he acted like he did not hear me.
Even with my day-to-day I am very patient, waiting in lines, for food or other service, anything really.
Stuff is going to happen or come when it happens or comes. Getting weird about it will not change anything... makes no sense to me.
What makes less sense is getting weird about me being calm about it.

I am exactly the same when it comes to driving. I did get 2 parking tickets but they were legal parking spaces where I didn't move my car in time - an error on my part rather than leaving the car somewhere it shouldn't be. I've never had anyone comment on my driving style, but I think that's because they know they'll get a lecture if they do.
Oddly I am totally the opposite when walking. I can't bear people walking slowly in front of me when there is no way of passing, stopping abruptly in front of me or stepping out of shop doorways without looking so I have to spring sideways rather than collide with them. My sense of anger and frustration is way out of proportion for the actual delay. The crime of
Being In My WAY is practically a hanging offence in my mind.
I'm about to go out for my lunchtime walk and I just know there will be at least 3 occasions where I want to shout and/ or wallop someone.
I can only assume this is what road-rage drivers feel. It's not how much sooner you arrive, it's being able to move at your own pace. Walking quickly doesn't break the law or kill you though.
err ... nope! :p
doesnt it bug you when some spotty little oink who's just passed his test cuts you up and causes you to brake?
Everyone drives like that here. Apart from rkzenrage, who causes most of the accidents by refusing to drive at the prevailing traffic speed and by being the only car who stops when the lights change to red (everyone else stops for green to avoid those in the other direction who are running the red)
;)

i drive very much like RK and SG, which is why i get annoyed at people who drive without consideration for others.

I'm half and half -I drove like that in the UK, here the bad habits are rubbing off. Plus they don't have speed cameras and red light cameras -they actually have to catch you! :lol:
I remember in the UK being explicitly taught that when you pull into traffic, make sure the gap is big enough that you won't cause the next car to slow down. -For your safety as well as as courtesy to them. Especially when joining motorways where you should use the slip road to accelerate to the speed of the traffic before you join. And don't pull off the hard shoulder until you're almost at the traffic speed and -again- the gap is big enough.
I think an awful lot of people here missed class that day. It scares me the way people will happily put into a small gap in 70mph traffic from being stationary on the hard shoulder. Or into 40mph traffic from their sideroad when the next car is 20 feet away. :eek: And there are more gaps to be had in this part of the world -the traffic is nothing like in Birmingham (UK). Rather a few seconds late than permanently
late, imo. (but I'm damned if I'm going to stop for that orange light.... ;))
Liars... Especially when they're not very good at it. :eyebrow:
Even worse... When they are related to you. :mad:
Idiot A$$ liberals, who don't believe that conservatives have feelings too.
A$$ wipe bosses that think that democrats are the most wonderful people on Earth, and dock your pay to support their cause.
A$$ Hat people who forbid you to say things like "Murdersikle" in their presence, but will insult your father in the same breath.:smack:

I'm pretty sure it's "motorcycle" with an editorial nod towards the danger of riding one.

my stepfather was American and during his short time here in Wales, he was astounded at the idea of a ROUNDABOUT, and of course, our small roads.

Roundabouts are the new thing here. They're putting them in left, right and centre. Problem is drivers are using them left, right and centre. There are public meetings to explain them, but to little avail. So then they put stop signs at all the entries. :rolleyes:
Send everyone to Milton Keynes aka Roundabout City. My ex used to get travel sick when we went to the cinema there, purely from the motion of navigating so many roundabouts. It was great for learning to drive though....
Back to the OT
Today it is people who are annoying me.
As usual the white noise that they let out of their mouths.
I was warm this morning. I admit it wasn't a warm day, but I was walking faster than usual. So I took off my cape and finished the journey to work in my 3/4 length sleeved top. Only to be asked by someone who had seen me, "Aren't you cold?"
"Yes, I am cold. I'm freezing. I'm punishing myself so that God doesn't have to kill any more kittens."
This floor isn't well populated. The staff who haven't left/ been redeployed often work out of the office. At least twice a day we get the comment, "Oh isn't it quiet here today! It's like the Marie Celeste! Where is everyone?" Being in a bit of a mean mood today I gave the last person to ask a rundown of exactly where each desk's inhabitant was (or wasn't). I think I'll just make a sign for next time:
[INDENT]Yes it's empty up here.
No it's not like the Marie Celeste.
Are you saying I smell of fish?[/INDENT]
Today, I annoy me!:thepain:
Today, I annoy me!:thepain:
I'm getting on my last nerve as well.
Yeah, it's pretty hard to just walk away from yourself!
Yes it is a motor cycle, it is old American slang. The Idiot in question is so afraid people will think that he is not politically correct, that I am not allowed to speak in public.
BTW; I quit this morning.
Shit fargon, your (ex) boss sounds like a complete wanker.
Oh, and right now I am the most annoying person on the planet.

Good for you Fargon! Sanity is something you can't buy.
People that are annoying me today:
Anti-smoking nazis. I was having my morning break this morning and went outside to have a cig. I was standing by the curb already when some women came walking by. One of them comments to her friend loud enough for the next town to hear that "Jeez! Cigarettes make me sick!"
I gave her my standard response just as loud: "Yeah, well they're KILLING me but you don't hear ME bitching about it!"
I got the standard "fuck you!" response. :-)
Never have understood that attitude. I have battled with the evil weed for more years than I care to name, have given up for years and months at a time (am currently back on the nicoteine lozenges: 14 days today and counting), but even when I was a year in to quitting, I would never have taken that attitude. Cool retort btw:)

You mean they are actually building them in Michigan? :eek: Everywhere else they are ripping them out.

They're building them in upstate NY too.
They're planning on putting a bunch in here in Raleigh as well. And the idea is not being taken well.
speaking of nazis, i cant abide food nazis. up their ass people preaching about what food we should eat, what we shouldnt, what we should feed our children. fuck off! all that fruit and veg youre buying to prolong a life that already lasts too long has been irradiated, treated and sprayed and fuck knows what else. kids are going without food at school because Jamie Oliver decided he had the answer to unruly kids, i.e., their eating habits. so waht?! just eat what you like, what the body craves, and tell these nazis to mind their own fuckin business.
Another kind of
food nazi. The kind that could starve a country.
That sucks, Griff. The more troubled their economy becomes the more he will rail against the US in a typical diversionary tactic. :(

No problem. As long as insurance stops covering Type II Diabetes.
As for roundabouts, they caught on as a hip thing in Austin a few years back, but they were installed in all the wrong places--small residential intersections where they literally amount to nothing more than an obstruction in the middle of the road that you have to swerve around. They've been slowly taking them out.
I guess I've never understood the supposed point of them anyway. (Much like New Jersey's jug-handles.)

That's exactly where they're putting them in here :rolleyes: Still it keeps the locals busy -planting flowers in the middle for the teenagers tio drive over, and going to meetings about getting instructions posted, stop signs installed, roundabouts removed.....
There also seems to be a fad at new high schools for building a ring road around them, with a roundabout at every parking lot entrance point and every exit point. It's a bit Hotel California-ish becasue on the way in, you just head for the building, but on the way out.......
I spend a lot of time in the hospital and in Dr.s offices and have been in the hospital a lot lately.
When you are in the damn hospital two things really suck about it.
You can't leave.
You really don't want to piss-off the people keeping you alive/caring for you, depending on your trip.
Same goes for the Dr's. office to a smaller degree.
Every time I'm in the hospital and often in the hospital I get preached at and I'm fucking sick of it. These hospitals get state funding, there has to be a separation of Church and State issue here.
No I do not want to "pray about it". If I thought that a god intervened in people's lives he/she/they/it would have done this to me to begin with and they can suck my dick for a month.
On the same note, nor do I think "the lord loves me", if it does, I could give two shits. (given, if I thought there was one)
They, sometimes, believe it or not, ask me "if I've found Jesus?", I usually give some half answer that they always take as affirmation because it is what they want to hear.
This is not nurses alone, Dr.s & techs do this all the time, it's f***ing crazy.
Do your job people.
A person's spirituality is personal and none of anyone's damn business.
The crazy thing is that I don't have anything put on my chart, so they know I'm not a Christian, or I would have had them put it there.
They see someone in horrible pain, dealing with the stuff I deal with and they want to chat about religion, recruiting?
The quickest way I can think of to turn someone off of it... this from me who has studied it for over twenty years. Sick, just sick.
I'm not talking once a trip, I'm talking daily, several times.
Dr. visits are not so often, but it comes up with fair regularity.
The message of Christ is dead.
That sucks, rkzenrage.
Is there any way possible you can see humor in their crap?
"I didn't have to find Jesus, he hog-tied me and dragged me over to you all"
(You still cut quite a handsome figure, by the way ;))
I found Jesus, he was mowing my lawn.
The "Today Show" annoys the living shit out of me.

Sorry you have to deal with this crap. Tell them youre an Alchemist.
When they ask you if you have found Jesus, you can always tell them you weren't looking for him, you didn't lose him, because you didn't have him last.
That should deter 'em.
rk that must really piss you off. I can only imagine how frustrating that must be. Doesn't happen much over here (I don't think) because most of our Christian culture isn't evangelical in nature (it's more tea and scones and village fete, with a bit of fire and brimstone to keep it interesting). Though, that's changing. Congregations to traditional C of E is falling, but take up rate on newer evangelical groups is growing quite fast.
I do wonder though, and this is not in any way to deny how annoying it must be....and far be it from me to defend the happyclappers, but maybe they're not so much trying to recruit, as to offer the thing that they truly believe will bring some kind of comfort to a person they know to be suffering pain and distress. Doesn't in any way mitigate the fact that they are breaching what should be a strong divide (religion and state), but it may mitigate their motives a little. I think they're wrong....but they may just be trying to do their best for you in terms they understand.
I would if it were not so constant and if I were not in a position of having to be in their care and at their mercy.
There is a reason we fill out the religion section of the paperwork upon checking-in.
Even if it were just once a trip or so... it is not.
You screwed up leaving religion blank. You're in Terri Shivo land, blank means Christian by default. Put down the Temple of Lucky Charms, or something, if you don't want to enter Buddhist as a religion.
I think Dana is on the money about them offering comfort rather than recruiting. I also think if you told them they would stop without affecting their professionalism.:2cents:
They often get insulted and sometimes it affects their performance.
Otherwise there would not be a problem.
You have to understand, evangelicals and baptists from the south don't work like regular christians. I have been in a church when we were told that "God loves Us more than Them". They think that non-christians are less and are not worthy of being treated with equal politeness. I grew-up here, I know of what I speak.
When I put Buddhist they become more aggressive.
this kind of stuff drives me bat-shit crazy! as well as very fearful of where this country has been, is, and is heading! and I'm sorry you have to put up with it.
It's probably best if you tell them, politely but firmly, that you prefer not to discuss religion. Explain that their overtures are causing you stress. Ask them to put that on your chart and spread the word.
Hey, the obvious solution is to convince them you are the savior ... the second coming.
Make 'em bow and wash your feet under threat of a smite. :angel:
there's something on that guy's thigh, but i can't quite see what it is...a prune?
Perhaps you could wear a dog-collar or a kippah? Or tack up an inspirational poster that says something like "The most Powerful Prayer is Private. Go quietly to speak with God" Or some other such mush which might make them assume you have deep faith and at the same time leave you alone about it.
there's something on that guy's thigh, but i can't quite see what it is...a prune?
Perhaps his awe at being touched by the noodly appendage caused a brief loss of bowel control?
Hark! The muse speaks of Hippikos and all his ilk! Beware! Beware!
...His flashing eyes?
His floating hair?
[Did he fall in the sacred river
again?]
Weave a circle 'round him thrice
[You'd better. You need three skeins for a braid.]
And close your eyes with holy dread
[Batman!]
For he on honeydew hath fed,
[Melons! Melons!]
And drunk the milk of Paradise.
It's his very own little meatball.
I see the FSM is still about.

I have a shirt they didn't take the electronic tag off and I haven't taken it back out of sheer forgetfulness. That was about 2 years and two moves ago! Too late now. Is there any other way to remove those tags?

Go into a store that uses them and ask them pretty please. Look honest, otherwise they might just call Security anyway.

That's what I'm afraid of:
Rent-a-cop: Ma'am, where'd you get this shirt?
Me: I bought it a few years ago.
RAC: Suuuuuuuuuurrrre, do you have a receipt?
Me: Uh, no, I've moved twice since then, I could barely find the shirt.
RAC: You're coming with us to the station. Crime Scene Investigation will get to the bottom of this
Music swells, camera pans to my panic-stricken face, then to RAC's smug look of justice...annnnnnnnndddd...we're out.That's what I'm afraid of:

I found that really interesting (well written & illustrated)
I had a slight problem with this though:
The most questionable part of the design is that the glass breaks into small slivers which could easily stick the wearer. If this had happened to me I would have sued the store.
You wear an item of clothing you know still has the security tag attached to it, rather than return it to the store... What ground do you have for suing them when the tag breaks?
Part of my Dremel set-up. I've posted some of my work previously.
There are a few of those attachment boxes.
A great site!
Awesome prices & you can get stuff you cannot get in the US or in most retail stores, even specialty stores.

They attached it to the garment. They failed to remove it when the garment became yours. Your removal of something they deliberately placed in your clothing that shouldn't have been there caused injury. Your fault for putting it there and failing to remove it. This is America. In some places here you can be held responsible for a death if someone drinks alcohol you serve them then they drive home and kill someone. Even if you tried to stop them driving. It's all about insurance and blame. Take cover, it's headed your way.....
Bitter? No, sadly. I might be willing to kill for a decent pint of bitter ;)
Shawnee, why not call them, explain (truthfully) and ask them if they'd be willing to do it? Then yoiu have an "authorization" for rent-a-cop.
so I took my garment back (an hour round trip). They were pretty nice about it, apologized, and refunded me 30% of the purchase price. More than paid for my gas (but not my time)

It also didn't compensate you for the fun you lost by not getting to remove the tag with a Dremel. Oh, well.

Sorry I didn't get to this in time or realize that it might've helped but....
Most systems are compatible -there might have been a store much closer to you who could have done it -if it's inconvenient/time-consuming to go back, it's always worth phoning the store first and asking if there is an easier solution. or just explaining the problem to the nearest store with a similar system and asking if they can help. If you have the receipt, you should be good.
oh that's all right--I still have some shopping to do for my trip. And they probably needed to know so that person can be more careful, anyway.
and I don't have a Dremel!
I know, I know. I'm depraved.
er . . . that's not right, is it?
:)

There was a TRACTOR driving along a main road the other day, at 15 miles an hour (in a 50-mph zone), in the DARK, with NO lights. Not even a reflector. Dangerous as hell!

That picture annoys me... it's too... too... busy! :p
It annoys me because the set isn't mine!

Hey, SquadRat. Welcome and stuff.
People who don't ride their bikes in the street.
Today's twit:
I was on my lunch break today and was just walking around near my office building at a slow pace.
Some jerk on his bike is speeding up behind me but couldn't get by fast enough and he yells at me "There's a reason they make the sidewalks so wide asshole!!"
So I yelled back "there's also a reason they call it a sideWALK!!!"
No response other than a dirty look and head shake.
Got a smile from the lady walking the other way.
People who ride bikes in the street.
Cities which don't provide adequate bike lanes.

Seriously? That's totally bizarre
A few people are having a conversation and drawing historical analogies, but they've got their dates all fucked up, and I can't keep myself from correcting them. I am a huge douche-bag.
When I'm in a bar with people, and stay at the edge of the group because I don't know what to say, and since I don't know what to say I don't have the confidence to get involved in the conversation.
Mega-f'ing annoying.
If you were in Miami I'd say go for it. You'd get to be interrogated by Horatio :yum:
Ohhh yeah, I lurrrrve David Caruso!!
people who take up ALL the frickin' washers and dryers in the laundry at one time, leaving none for other people.
:(
Putting on a light jacket before leaving the house, because it's so nice out for the first time in weeks, then freezing my ass off when I leave work, because the temperature's dropped 30 degrees after the sun went down.
The fact that they are still building McMansions by the hundreds when so many people are struggling to sell their houses.
The light rail construction going on by my office! They keep moving the traffic lanes AND the sidewalks we can use every day!
I feel like I'm at Hogwarts, where the stairs keep changing position.
No one I know correctly pronounces the acronym for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. FAFSA. Faff-suh.
I hear "fassa" a lot from people of suspect intelligence, but what really bothers me is my coworkers. A lot of these people have master's degrees. So why can't they see that it is NOT "fass-fuh." It drives me crazy, I guess because that isn't the order the letters are in. I think if you look at the acronym once you should be able to pronounce it.
Anyway, it's stupid but it annoys the shit out of me.
A discussion from another thread made me think... not so much telemarketers, but that it is not illegal, one.
Second, people that bitch about having to talk to them. What I cannot figure out is why they don't
just hang up!!!!!:eek: :worried:
I used to work on the phone... you people have NO IDEA.
Why don't people just hang-up on telemarketers? If you don't like them, don't like talking to them, just hang-up... it hurts my damn head!
My Dad: "Who was that?"
Me" "Telemarketer"
"You didn't say anything, you just hung-up"
"Yeah? I don't like talking to telemarketers, don't think it should be legal. Got nothing to say."
"But, but... you just hung-up"
"...aaannnnd?"
"I could never do that"
Then I have a tiny aneurysm.
You know who is REALLY at fault and who pisses me off A LOT... anyone who buys from telemarketers.
They are BAD PEOPLE!!!!!!
I may have to rethink my position on the existence of evil and bad people now.
I am serious about telemarketing being illegal, also, I am on every no-call list out there.
Worked for a while, about two months ago I started getting them again... something I should know?
Another thing, I don't talk to machines, no I will not "hold for your important message".
I really pissed-off a medical business with that recently.
"We have been trying to get in touch with you for six months".
I told them I have not heard from them at all. She said that I have been hanging up on them, so I told her that I hang-up on any calls that come-up with all zeros, private on my caller ID (they don't get to leave messages if they are too sleazy and hide) and I hang-up on machines. If you want to talk to me, you will call me.
For some reason she took it personally... makes no sense to me. I was very polite the whole time & did not use the word sleazy, just meant it.
I feel the same way. Treat them like obscene phone callers, and hang up. Or if you want to be polite, say, "Sorry, I'm not interested" over whatever spiel they're spieling, and hang up, without giving them a chance to interject.
I think people are slaves to their phones. Why do you HAVE to answer? I rarely answer my phone, unless I know it's one of my children.
anyone who buys from telemarketers.
They are BAD PEOPLE!!!!!!
No they're not. The people who employ them may be....but the ones making the calls are just people trying to earn a wage and feed their families. Telemarketing requires no qualifications, no experience etc....it's a job you can get if you can't get any other job. I know, because I have done that job. I never just hang up, but I don't buy either. I say to them straight away (sometimes interrupting their spiel) "I am not interested, don't waste your time on me, call someone who might give you a sale".
What annoys me? People who call telemarketers evil. They're just people earning a wage.
I worked as a telemarketer, selling foreign lottery tickets. I didn't stay long because it definitely was evil work.
I don't answer my home phone unless I know who it is and I feel like talking to them... which is almost never.
A few people are having a conversation and drawing historical analogies, but they've got their dates all fucked up, and I can't keep myself from correcting them. I am a huge douche-bag.
But you are are correct douche bag and that makes all the difference. Call them on it...every time.
Saturday Night Live
[SIZE="2"]Butler: Lord and Lady Doucebag!
Lord Salisbury: Well, well, well.. I was just asking Lord Sandwich, "Where the devil are those Douchebags?"
Lady Doucebag: Well, it has been impossible to get him out of his workshop! He has been working day and night.
Lord Salisbury: You, Douchebag? Well, I wasn't aware you dabbled in that sort of thing. What in heaven's name are you working on?
Lord Doucebag: Well, I would be happy to tell you.. but perhaps after you have finished eating.
Lord Salisbury: Well, here is Chambers right now. Would you like something to eat?
Lord Doucebag: We're not too hungry right now - just a plate of raw vegetables.
Lord Salisbury: Would you like some dresing with that?
Lady Doucebag: Just some vinegar and water, thank you.
Earl of Sandwich: Douchebag, how are you? I haven't seen you in the House of Lords in ages! Don't tell me for the first time in memory we are going to have a House of Parliament without a Douchebag?
Lord Doucebag: My dear Sandwich, Parliament has always had its share of Douchebags, and it always will.
Lord Salisbury: Spoken like a true Douchebag. I have often heard the King speak of your family.. [ to Earl of Sandwich ] ..and of yours, as well: "Give me a Sandwich and a Douchebag, and there is nothing I cannot do."
Earl of Sandwich: Hear, hear!
Lord Salisbury: So, tell me, Douchebag.. when are you going to show us that invention of yours?
Earl of Sandwich: Yes, Douchebag, just what kind of an invention are you sitting on?
Lord Doucebag: Well, it's a long story. Why don't we go out to the garden, and I'll explain it to you.
Earl of Sandwich: Tell me - did Lady Douchebag help you in the project?
Lord Doucebag: Help? Why.. she was the inspiration!
[ they exit to the garden to discuss the wondrous invention ]

HR departments and management that take 6 months to figure out who they want to hire. I'd settle for a "signs point to yes" or a "not fucking likely, jack-ass."
When people say, "Damn, you're a big guy. No offense."
I mean, I am a big guy, so unless you're calling me fat I'm not going to be offended. But when you add that "no offense" part, it seems to me that you were thinking something offensive when you said it.
when people say obvious but pronounce it oDvious
I don't know anyone who says odvious although it made me laugh when i saw it. I'm sure there are some people that say it. lol
When you go to the grocery store and plain white tortillas are on your list. The wall of tortillas has every conceivable kind of tortilla: tomato basil, garlic, spinach and onion, pomegranate, etc. etc. but no plain white. When will those damn trendy wraps fall out of fashion?

The laundromat that April and I go to lets you dry for free. I'm not sure how the timers work on them, but the dryers seem to cut out if they get to a certain temperature, rather than having a countdown timer. Sometimes they'll go for over an hour...other times, a couple of minutes. Fucking irritating as all hell.
Friend or person who's home I am in: Would you like something to drink?
Me: No thanks, I'm not thirsty.
We have root beer
No thanks
We have wine
No thanks
Bottled water
No thanks
It's cold
No thank you, I'm fine
It's no trouble
Really, I had something on the way
I really don't mind, I'm going to have some
...sure... I'd love some
you can end it at the start by saying.
"not at the moment but i'll grab it or let you know when im thirsty, thanks"
I'd just take what's offered, then promptly throw it at them. Then beat the shit out of them and say, "Look fucker! I told you I didn't want anything! Next time, listen, you fucknut!" Then I'd calmly sit down and pretend nothing had happened.
Just got back from grocery shopping. I hate when people block the whol fucking aisle as if nobody needs to get by, like they're the only person in the store. I just push their cart out of the way with my cart - if they look at me, I say excuse me.
Tell me I'm not the only one that happens to?
Must be a Southern thing.
Yeah, the "Center Isle discussion" drives me nuts too, especially since I'm in a wheelchair and cannot always go around them in any way.
You really don't wanna' hear my list of wheelchair gripes.
Tell me I'm not the only one that happens to?
(Don't ask me why I remember this) Miss Manners actually had a column once on this very subject, and her take was that by refusing a drink you were basically forbidding your host from being a good host, and that in fact the proper course of action was to agree that a glass of water would be perfect, and just not drink it if you weren't thirsty.
I expect your take on this will be that it is a politeness "game" and therefore you won't play it, but IMHO it would certainly save everyone time if you just graciously accepted a glass of water, and there would be no harm done.
I'd just take what's offered, then promptly throw it at them. Then beat the shit out of them and say, "Look fucker! I told you I didn't want anything! Next time, listen, you fucknut!" Then I'd calmly sit down and pretend nothing had happened.
and then you'd self fellate while the crowd goes wild, we know. you're cool.
What saves them time is to keep them from having to fetch the damn water in the first place, as well as a long drawn out conversation by being clear about not being thirsty when they ask, by saying "no thank you, I'm ok" or something similar.
Why the F***ING HELL would I lie about being thirsty?!
and then you'd self fellate while the crowd goes wild, we know. you're cool.
Nah...you save that for when you're finally alone.

If they offer something and I say, "No,
nothing, thanks". I said "no" to what was offered, I said "nothing" which covers alternate offers, and thanked them for the hospitality. Shouldn't that end it? :confused:
As Muad'Dib said "accepting a gift honors the giver"
It also places a debt on the recipient. :(
I was on my lunch break today and was just walking around near my office building at a slow pace.
Some jerk on his bike is speeding up behind me but couldn't get by fast enough and he yells at me "There's a reason they make the sidewalks so wide asshole!!"
So I yelled back "there's also a reason they call it a sideWALK!!!"
No response other than a dirty look and head shake.
You're lucky - relatively speaking. I stepped back at the bus stop and stepped into the path of a pavement cyclist. He was apologetic at first, then as I remonstrated that he should be on the road he decided to lecture me on the fact that Blair and Bush were bombing his country (I'm not sure whether he was Iraqi or Afghani - it was a while ago). To add insult to injury, while I was engaged with him my bus went sailing past and there wasn't another one for 30 mins.
It seems really funny now - that you can use anything to excuse the lesser crime of riding on the pavement - but at the time it shocked the hell out of me. I walked home so I could control my bottom lip which had gone all wobbly as soon as I was shouted at.
Today's annoyance was Treats That You Regret
I went to McDonalds for lunch as a special treat. I've had a rotten few days and decided the occasional gobful of fattening food is hardly going to kill me.
Not long after I ordered and sat down, the staff started asking customers to leave immediately after they had finished their food, and prevented anyone else from coming in.
It obviously wasn't a high risk situation, but for McDs to close its doors at lunchtime it had to be something they were taking seriously.
I felt highly conspicuous as more people left and the staff's glances focused more and more on me, so I really bolted my food. I then spent a miserable hour or so back at my desk while huge unchewed mouthfuls of all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a seame seed bun played havoc with my acid reflux :angry:
1) Ignorant liberals (not all)
2) the whole EMO/punk thing...
3) People that say country music sucks (hard to believe since its the number radio format)
4) people that park/sit in their car in fire lanes regardless of signs
5) people that drive and talk on the cell phone while driving
6) people that claim they are held back because of race...explain to me all the people that are successful in a said race.
lots more but I'll stop now
I'll take "people WHO can't use proper grammar but WHO call other people ignorant because they disagree politically" for $100, Alex.
3) People that say country music sucks (hard to believe since its the number radio format)
popularity does not imply quality
I'm a huge country music fan, but they don't play country music on country music stations anymore. What they play is pop music with bad accents and hats. hmmmm... apparently that is shit that annoys me.
btw: welcome to the cellar:)

And that is why you would fall into #1, I said NOT ALL!!!!
I know and work with some very "good" liberals. These are the ones that do not feel the need to bash the republican/conservative side because its "trendy". They do not force their agenda on anyone. And further more what about the liberal entertainers that bemoan the "fat cat" republicans? If that "isn't the pot calling the kettle black" I do not know what is! They also fall into #1.
So you don't like ignorant liberals, do you like ignorant conservatives? Have you ever met one?
People who come out swinging when they join a new forum....

There are some "good" republican/ conservatives on this site. They don't start off by making accusations and calling names.
But hey, I'm a liberal and therefore I welcome you anway. If I had a beard I'd be stroking it.
What pisses me off is the FUCKING VA, a bunch of lying cocksuckers.
I am rated 50% and am totally unemployable, the only thing they tell me is it is not my job, and it is not their job to find anything out.
The Government is a bunch of A$$holes!!!
So you don't like ignorant liberals, do you like ignorant conservatives? Have you ever met one?
Yes I have.....
Seems the ones who are berating me, fall into that ignorant catergory. And just because I "look" new to the forums, perhaps I have been here since the beginning but changed my name?
Whatever, old-timer.
I don't think I'm ignorant so I guess we'll agree to differ.

YOU are the one who came in calling liberals idiots (you saying "not all" is irrelevant.) Then you say you're talking about the ones who do not feel the need to "bash" but you began the bashing the second you sent that post.
So now that you offended some liberal people (most of whom would not dream of starting a post by saying "ignorant conservatives" especially when the thread was not a politically polarizing one) and you can't understand that anyone should be offended...then go on to say those offended must be ignorant.
Talk about the pot calling the kettle ignorant.
New or not new, you act like a nube straight out of junior college. :rolleyes:

You have interesting bumper stickers on your pickup, don't you?
I don't mean to pick on you SquadRat1 (1?? Does this mean there are others ready to follow??) . . . but I have to ask, because I'm fascinated by how people discern their different music preferences.
You say that country music doesn't suck. As evidence, you cite the popularity of country music radio stations.
Another poster then claims that the music played on "country music radio" is not actually country music. You then agree with this statement.
So do you agree (or not) that what they do play on "country music radio" sucks?
Where did I say liberal idiots? I never did. The post was things that annoy me. Ignorant liberals do. Ignorant means to be "unaware".
There are many many many AWARE liberals. Clinton (both), Carter, Howard Dean, Obama, (do I need to keep going?)
Unaware? any of the droves of celebrities that talk of the poor but bank their MILLIONS every week. Rosie, Kanye West, etc...
14 year old CHILDREN that feel the war is wrong because a OLDER person tells them it is. Not formulating the thought on their own.
I could go on forever on more "ignorancy" but I'll stop here....

Some does without a doubt. But when people say "it sucks", makes no sense. I feel some hip hop and rap sucks, but it still sells millions and there is some I like and will listen too (Talib Kwali to point out one).

Actually, like her or not, Rosie O. has given away millions to good causes, mostly to benefit kids. She actually gave away more last year than Donald T.

What?
Posts that won't go away :worried:
websites that won't let you leave. :(
Songs that get stuck in your head. Several times over the last few weeks I've been hearing "God is watching us from a distance" and to a lesser degree "God is an awesome God" - don't ask me why!
Ha! That song "God is watching us from a distance" I always think: why? he doesn't want to get too close?
Thanks, though, it has now replaced Joyride which was in my head earlier. :eek:
Rap... almost always... actually more than almost always... Come to think of it, I don't recall any Rap music I have ever liked. I made a decision... All Rap music annoys me...
Dolly Partons voice after two consecutive songs... <fingernails scratching on chalkboard> :eek:
Juvenile bullshit
Hey, you even followed the convenient link I provided! :::ahem::: You're welcome.

Could be worse. This song hasn't aired on television for years and it still annoys me.
I never heard that before. Tinfoil helmet must prevent it from entering my brain, though, since I'm not experiencing any negative effects.

Rap is 3/4 crap ... and the other 1/4 is just as bad
websites that won't let you leave. :(
I'll take a shot that may be way off target, but are you talking about sites that won't let you back button out? If so, and you're using IE, the little black arrowhead next to the backbutton will let you escape by clicking on the site you want from the list that pops up.
If you're talking about something else, then sorry, nevermind. :blush:
I may have mentioned this before, but it's a genuine cri de coeur so please forgive me.
Marks & Spencers. Old people. Lunchtime.
They move so slowly, they can't walk and talk at the same time so will stop right in front of you if asked a question by their other half, they block the aisles while treating the place as a social club, they have no peripheral vision and are not respecters of personal space. Every time I have had a trolley or a shopping bag pressing against the back of my legs in a queue it has been an old person.
I go into the 5 till Basket Only queue now. Old people don't tend to use this because 1) they need trolleys to keep them upright and 2) they can't deal the fact the person at the front has to keep an eye on which is the next till free - they always have to be summoned by the cashier shouting, "Who's next please!" three or four times and it flusters them. Goodness knows why, the same system is in place in the Post Office and they spend half their lives there.
They get up at 05.30 in the morning, so why on earth are they in town between 12.00-14.00 when the rest of us are trying to grab a sandwich and a drink? Why can't they go there first thing when the rest of us are safely at our desks nursing our first coffee? Let them buy their tins of stewing steak and bags of oranges then.
Small shops and newsagents, especially in villages, often have signs saying, "Two schoolchilden at a time only" because kids with their big schoolbags, loud voices and low spending power just clog the shops up and annoy normal people. Also the less schoolkids in shops at a time, the less likely one will be to slip a Mars Bar up their sleeve. I understood this as a schoolchild, and certainly have no problem with it now I'm older.
I just think M&S should apply the same restrictions to old people.
Please note I also believe students should receive lessons in supermarket shopping when they first come to University - I am equal opportunity intolerant.
Web sites which you have to use for classes that that are always down. Yes, I am calling you out livetext.

I've had this same beef for years. My brother once mentioned trying to get a quick fast food run in (at places where only a half an hour is allotted for lunch) and there is grandma and grandpa with grandchildren Tyler, Taylor, and Skyler (complete with bowl haircuts and hair tails) trying to decide if it's Taylor or Tyler who likes barbeque sauce. Also, they should stay out of the banks. I've said it before...they have all freaking day! :3eye:
and I suppose when we get too old to chew, you'll just throw us out in the snow to starve, too. :(
Ageism is a particularly insidious and ironic form of hatred, because someday, if you're lucky, you'll get there, too.
When I was a teenager I waitressed at this pancake place. I had many peeves about customers but my two pet peeves were: parents asking a two year old child what he wanted to eat whilst I had 4-5 tables waiting for me and people asking me "how big" the silver dollar pancakes were. I always said they were about as big as "a buck and a half" and then just stared at them.

Not fair...I live in an old people community. I help them out. I love old people and their grandchildren. My beef was more of a timing thing than due to their age.
You're jumping to conclusions about which you know nothing. :right: There's where most of MY hatred goes.
Also, if you can't fathom a little tongue in cheek dark humor perhaps you need to find the Staircase to Joy and Light forum rather than the Cellar. It gets dark down here.
Inconsiderate assholes on the bus. There is a guy who gets on the same bus I take after work. He gets on a few stops after me.
He has cerebral palsey and uses 2 canes and has a great deal of trouble getting on the bus. It is easier for him to sit in the first seat so if I am already there, I get up and let him have it.
The other day I did this and some old, ignorant bitch speaking Cantonese as loudly as possible to her husband who was sitting a few seats back yells to him and points to the seat I just stood up from for the guy with the canes. I look at the bitch and point to the guy getting on the bus. She ignores me and her husband and his 5 shopping bags take the seat. All I could do was shrug an apology to the man and shake my head at the old lady staring at me with a smile on her face now. I mouthed the words "stupid bitch" and walked down to the back of the bus.
Common courtesy is supposed to be common no matter what language you speak.

I'm not ageist.
People who get in my way annoy the shit out of me:
A couple of months ago it was the new intake of University students treating the supermarket like a theme park while I was tryingto shop
When I lived in London it was the tourists who stood right in the entrance to Tube stations to chat and get their maps out
Sometimes it will be people who illegally park on the pavement while I am trying to get by with bags of shopping
I've never behaved in any of the ways above, so I doubt I'll start when I get old.
I've never behaved in any of the ways above, so I doubt I'll start when I get old.
I've always thought that old age instills one with a hearty sense of "not giving a shit, because what difference does it make"?
There are a lot of people who feel the same way about the disabled because we "hold them up".
The world is not set to your pace.
The world is not set to your pace.
This is best evidenced in traffic. No matter how aggressively you ride my rear bumper, it won't affect what's in front of me.
Exactly... as I stated before... the closer you get to me, the slower I'm going to go.
You all annoy me today...you fuckers!
Time for my meds...
This is less to do with my pace and more to do with behaviour and respect.
I have peripheral vision (mirrors if I am driving).
As a pedestrian I don't stop so suddenly that someone walks into the back of me or has to make a bizarre sideways jerk to avoid doing so - in the same way I wouldn't in a car.
Of course I don't expect other people to move at the same pace as me - I just prefer them to have some awareness of what is happening around them.
If decided to stop suddenly in a car (we're talking non-emergency situation) I would check my mirrors beforehand. All I want is for people to have a similar consideration when shopping.
Don't step back to look at something without seeing if anyone is approaching.
Don't stand with your two friends for a chat in the middle of an aisle.
Don't stop suddenly in a crowded shop where there will obviously be people right behind you.
I was taught this as a child as a matter of respect. Although my parents are 60+ now (and Dad with a cane and a replacement knee) it still applies to them as well as me.
And re tailgating - I could say the same about the people who press their shopping trolleys against my legs in queues (all have been OAPs, hence my original rant). I can't step forward any more without encroaching on the personal space of the person in front - so don't think pressing up against me is going to help - it's just damn rude.
My issue is with people who don't show me the same consideration I show them. If is was simply about people who didn't move quickly enough I'd be shoving them out of my path. I don't care if someone is a spotty teen, an OAP or in a motorised wheelchair - if they contravene my "rules of the road" it annoys the shit out of me. I do nothing about it apart from the occasional fart (have searced - perhaps I didn't post that here) and this thread.
Of course I don't expect other people to move at the same pace as me - I just prefer them to have some awareness of what is happening around them.

Which is what I was saying, also.
What happens is that the people who don't give a fuck that other people inhabit the earth can grow into old people who don't give a fuck that other people inhabit the earth (and I could carry this further but if my previous statements were misconstrued I can only imagine what would transpire if I elaborated.)

People on buses with prams. I know you have to get your kid somewhere, but a pram barely fits up the aisle to begin with, never mind when there are already more people on the bus than there should be.
No! there's that GD split-V stream that happens after getting frisky.:blush:

Have you tried giving it the Presta valve treatment?
If I were to get frisky with anyone but Rosy Palm, there might be considerable objection, from the attacked, that the attackee is unsuitably equipped.
After all
The small diameter of the Presta valve requires a smaller hole....

Fuck, social "games." I like movies like Swingers as much as the next guy, but I never took them as a guidebook.
