When people leave cook time on the microwave.

When all the carry baskets are stacked 20 high at the U-Scan on the other side of the grocery store and none at the door where they should be.

When people say "There ya go" instead of "Thank you" when you purchase something or not saying thank you at all.

Naysayers...they always find the negative angle on everything and everyone.

Oneuppers...theirs was always bigger, better, more gut-wrenching, more difficult, colder, hotter, prettier, tastier, costlier, cheaper...whatever-er.

People who tie up a checkout line for a price check for items less than $1.00

If I'm behind them, I'll pull out $1.00 and tell them to keep the change.

I hate it when I go to tear off a bill and mail it in and the perforation is a quarter inch from the actual third fold thus tearing the paper. Hard to describe really, but it's annoying to me!

Greedy bastages on the devil site. I'm enjoying a Reposado, so I thought I'd see what's available on cbid. They have 4 boxes of the Habanos, and some guy apparently really wants all 4. So much so, that I drove up the price per box from $25 to $40, with 3 days left. :rolleyes:

Hmmm....so many but here are a few:

1.
"one uppers" That is what I call folks who no matter what story you tell them, they've always got something better to tell you that happened to them.

2.
When someone asks me a question, I start to answer but then they start talking again during my answer so I just either:

A: Talk louder
B: Be quiet and give them a look like their pants are unzipped.

3.
People behind me in a grocery line who stand so fricking close when I'm using the ATM thing that I like to turn and ask them "do you remember what my code is? I forget..."

4.
People driving super slow in their tin-can electric cars so they can just run on the batteries and show me how much better they are than me.

Maybe I have issues.......

Littering!!! And this goes from throwing your cigarette out your car window and hitting my car (or worse it goes into my convertible) or people out on the lake having a Bon-Fire and throwing all their cans into the fire and then leaving it there to freeze into the ice. Just because it's frozen doesn't mean that it's not going to get into the lake when it thaws out people!!!!!!!!!

Golfers who can't be bothered to fix a divot or ball mark. Nothing like hitting a nice drive (doesn't happen often, fellas) and finding my ball sitting in bottom of some moron's excavation project.
Drivers who pull out in front of you in a 55 mph zone, go 100 yards up the road and turn off.
People who think just because they're paying for gas, they can cut in front of the rest of us in line, slap a $20 on the counter and proceed to buy lottery tickets.
People who can't be bothered to cough up a "Thank you" if you hold a door or perform some other small courtesy for them. OTOH, had an elderly lady say, "Your parents raised you right." Made my day.
The bastages here who keep forcing me to rebuild my mailbox... :r

People that drive 10 miles under the posted speed limit when merging on a highway.

Oh, and the National Enquirer.

That reminds me of another one: people who ignore the "Lane closed" signs for a mile, then expect you to let them merge at the last second. I had a guy do this to me one night up in Albany a few years ago. When I refused to let him merge in, he whipped in behind me and started flashing his hi-beams. He got introduced to Mr. Maglite. :r

That I pay $323.82 every year so the local public school can have a police force of its own in a town with 7 other local LEA's (Texas is kind stupid) and that that police force readily admits 80% of its enforcement activities are stopping kids aged 16-18 who are ditching or truant but meanwhile they have FOUR K9 teams that in 10 years have NEVER found anything.

I also hate when semis pull out in front of you to pass another semi. Then it takes the passing semi 10 minutes to get around the other one:td

Pet peeve in the form of a PSA: If you're driving a dump truck/tractor/school bus/rusted out POS that couldn't break 40 downhill with a tailwind, and you look in the mirror and see a line of vehicles stretching back out of sight, pull the f**k over and let them pass.

One of my biggest and I don’t think I have seen it mentioned….

I hate seeing people leave their shopping carts next to their cars in the parking lot. Or prop it up on the curbing/landscape area. It being MUCH, MUCH too difficult for them to walk it to a cart return or back into the store…. Probably the same people who ***** about a cart ding….

People if you can’t manage your speed use the cruise control.

That is a good one and bothersome…. More so, because I feel self conscious that their passengers may feel like I am the offender. If on the open road, I use speed control….ALWAYS.

Cigarette smokers chain smoking in the shop. They buy a pack, sit down, and chain smoke the ****ing thing for an hour, leave their empty package and mess for me to clean up. Granted it's my job to clean up, but most people have the common courtesy of disposing of their own trash and I take care of wiping the table and ashtrays.

Sick. I hope they are using different ashtrays other than what the cigar smokers are using. I hate the smell of cigarettes and cigarette butts:pu

Nah, same ashtrays. I empty them when they leave and spray and wipe them down with Windex and a rag.

People that are in too much of a hurry to stop at a stopsign, pull out right in front of you even though there is nobody behind you, and then drive 10 mph under the speed limit.
