The people who have to slow down to a craaaaawwwwllllll when taking any sort of turn off of a main road.
90% of the bro's and sorostitute's driving and acting at my university. But I will continue to ogle the sorostitutes.
People that think that just because my girlfriend is covered in tattoo's, that she's some lowlife and follow her around the store to make sure she isn't stealing. Funny thing is, that doesn't seem to be a problem when I'm with her... and I'm carrying.
Bureaucracy EVERYWHERE! No wonder no one can't get ANYTHING done when you get hit by hundreds of pages of paperwork filled with logical fallacies and catch-22's.
Cell phones don't bother me, unless people are being rude with them or texting while driving. If I see that when I'm on my bike, I speed away from that disaster waiting to happen.
Drivers that flash me their high beams when I leave mine on on my bike. I leave them on for a reason, jackwagon, because then the excuse of "I didn't see him!" won't fly.
People tailgating me when I'm riding. Do they not realize I can stop a whole hell of a lot faster then they, and theres hardly such a thing as a fender bender on a bike? Word of warning to all jackwagon drivers - Get prepared for a big-fat life ruinous lawsuit if you rearend me on my bike. Or cut me off and cause a wreck. Or anything where it's not my fault for getting hurt on my bike.
That's all for now.

I am as irritated with the person calling me while I am at the cashier as the cashier is with me for being on the phone. I actually ask the person calling if I can call them back, response I get is "This will just take a minute" unless its my boss or something equally important I hang up.
Understand the motorcycle comments. Been there.
Being a pedestrian crossing the street (at a crosswalk) has become a sport, drivers have actually driven around me, or almost hit me while crossing, or speeding up and forcing you to dodge them. Usually cursing at me for daring to slow them down in getting somewhere. Has life gotten so fast paced we can't have consideration for the person on a bike or walking?
Last but not least, every time I get the wife to give vaping with a eGo or 510 a honest try and she actually lasts a week or so without a cig one of the idiot in laws comes over and tells her she looks stupid sucking on a battery or asks her when she started using a crack pipe. then they offer her a real cig and we are back to square one all over again.
All the best, happy vaping,

Adobe Updater and other 'reminder' popups from WinXP's tray. But, especially ones from programs I rarely use. Can't figure out how to kill them (msconfig, startup menu, nothing)
I literally live in the woods, but no cell phone's here either. They are the rudest piece of invention EVER. I've been a cashier and yes WTF hand me the money I don't wanna "one sec." forever while you are chatting it up with whom ever you are talking with. Talking on a phone and driving wasn't dangerous enough nope they had to go an put typing chat to make the game of driving more interesting. It's a phone why does it need text? I will say they can be very handy if you break down and if the min's didn't expire I would have one in the glove box, although Tx heat would prob fry it.
I hadn't. Thanks for the suggestion. But, I was unable to identify whichever service might be the source of the messages. Nothing identified as Adobe. It's the same type of message which will bug the heck of you if you turn Automatic Live Update off.
Texting was created for business people. It was supposed to be used in meetings. You don't want your phone to go off or to be talking on it during a meeting, but you would like to be able to have your supervisor tell you to ask about the expense reports for the Pacific Northwest region without disrupting the meeting.
When my wife and I were together, she had a friend who would come over. I never saw this womans face as she was texting from the time she arrived until the time she left.
Some new ones:
People who don't use turn signals. Or even worse, turn them on as they're making the turn.
People who put $175.00 worth of groceries in their cart and then realize after it's all been rung up, that they only have $38.23.
People who lick their thumbs when counting their money. Sorry, can a get a $20 bill without your slobber all over it?

Touching money thats been stored in a gross sweaty bra (touching money at all really). Or a wad of disgusting sweaty money from some gross guys pocket.
The way some people smell. When I cashiered the little fans they had would point directly into your face and pull air from the line area. YUCK
The outrageous overuse of the word "issue". If it is a problem, THEN CALL IT A PROBLEM.
Forced diversity training.
"PC" as a whole.
Candlelight vigils.
People who turn on the waterworks for the TV crews.
Blatant suck-ups.
Those that wear spandex when, really, a mu-mu would be more appropriate.
Men that chew gum.
Anybody that snaps gum.
The "stubble look". Either GROW A beard or do not. Choose.
The shaved-head / VanDyke combo. Overdone and old.
SUVs, trucks, vans, and all other over-sized passenger vehicles.
...especially when parked at the end of a parking lot row.
ANY use of speakerphones in an office environment. There are these areas called "conference rooms".
People who empty the water cooler and walk away.
Animal abuse.
Cheap chocolate.
Weak coffee.
Cell-fracking-phones.
People that ask if I am a "Village Person" when I do my grocery shopping after the bar closes.
...and want to play with the thumbcuffs.
Men that shave their chests. Perverts.
Those that say "hot water heater". If the water is hot, then why heat it?
Autotune.

Agree with just about all of those except the "stubble look." I have the unfortunate fortune of having the most sensitive skin in the world. I could literally only shave about once or twice a week and everytime I did, my face would break out so bad with razor burn I couldn't even touch it. Used creams, sesative skin shave gel, aloe vera, Nothing worked. Glad to say that it's no longer a problem. Bought an electric razor and use "Lectric Shave." What a relief to be able to shave every day!
Now, my turn...
The self-scan at the checkout. This is for small orders, people. Don't do your monthly shopping and try to checkout at the self-scan. The self-scan is for people who are in a hurry. Also, if you don't know how to use it, don't use it! I am always stuck behind some nimrod who I'm convinced has never even used a pocket calculator. What the hell are they doing at the self-scan and why are they always in front of me? And it's not bad enough that there's one of them. But there's three more of them. One at every single self-scan. Scratching their butts with this dumbfounded expression on their face.
"Oh wait, I guess I'm supposed to pay for this. maybe I should pull my wallet out of my back pocket. You know, the wallet that I should have had in my hands as I approached the self-scan in the first place. Now let's see... $20.83... hmmm. Well here's a dollar... there's another. Wait, maybe I should use a credit card... Oops! I forgot to scan my shopper's card... Now which of my thirty-five pockets is it in..."
OH, FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!!

There are people who either:
a.) Do not know how to use the card scanners, or
b.) Think it's the cashier's job.
I have been behind people (rather frequently) who just hand the cards to
the cashier. The cashier should be able to void the transaction, take the
bags of groceries out of the cart, and tell the customer to go pound rock
salt at the competitor.
I will give the person behind me ONE bump/tap on my ... with their cart.
They get a turn-around and a glare. The second bump gets my foot braced
(backward) on the bottom of the cart and then a good kick backward.
Is this everywhere? People driving electric vehicles carelessly through the store. I'm guessing the vehicle weighs at least 4 or 5 hundred pounds, plus 300 pounds of passenger, plus packages ... maybe 800 pounds or so rolling recklessly or just absent mindedly through the aisles. On more than one occasion, I had to JUMP to avoid getting nabbed by one. Stay off the sauce, pay attention, learn to drive the thing, or don't sit down on it. You're a hazard.
And with that, Most of the people who "require" them. I'm not talking about the frail old ladies that can barely walk, the amputees, or the people that have a medical condition causing obesity... I'm talking about the people who were are lazy obese... so-and-so's who's only physical exertion throughout the day is pressing the tv remote button, crapping themselves, and masticating.
I hate that any time I get pulled over me and my car get searched... I don't carry drugs in my car leave me the .... alone! Just because I have long hair doesn't mean I'm a drug smuggling junkie.
I hate disrespectful people any age, it doesn't matter. Kids to adults, if you're going to be out in civilization socializing with other humans be respectful to others. Don't be a jack ....
I've worked at a few stores, I know the people that like to try to be funny but are just copying everyone else.
People getting lottery tickets at the local corner store thinking and trying to decide what they want, bull ....ting with the cashier about which one they think is the winner, asking what the last ticket was that won and how much that person won. Like that have some kind of secret strategy. I can't stand those scratch off ticket people, they annoy me to no end!
Worked at a gas station/convenient store and always got hassled about the high gas prices like I can lower them SCREW YOU! Leave me alone! Have a nice day.
People with a benefit card (Welfare), that ask if they can be charged for $14 in food and grab a 12 pack instead. Or ask me how they can withdraw money from their benefit card so they can buy cigarettes, beer, and lottery tickets. The store I worked at was right next door to government assisted living, or whatever it is. It's a giant run down dirty condo with nothing but welfare, ex prisoners, and druggies. It had all types of scum living there and coming into the store where I worked annoying me.
I get quite frustrated with other drivers, I get a bit of road rage, not violent usually. Just get ...... off and start swearing at them. I wrote a blog post about some simple driving rules and such. http://rhetoriccamel.blogspot.com/2010/08/dear-drivers.html
I hate when you tell someone something that happened, and they have to out-do you to have the better story. Most of the time it's not true, here's an example:
Me: I fell asleep at the wheel one day on my ride home from work for a few seconds. Thankfully those rumble strips woke me up.
Other Person: This one time I fell asleep on my motorcycle doing 80Mph on the highway, didn't wake up for 3 exits
The exits around here are like 10 miles apart, good luck pulling that one off, doucher.
There's more but I'm done for now....

I actually prefer to have as many new bills in my till as possible. Stack of all new ones? OKAY! It doesn't matter to me that they're harder to count. I don't care if people have to wait a second or two longer. It's worth it to me to know they haven't been waded up and stuck in somebody's .... crack.
BTW @Rhetoric Camel, nice rant. That's exactly why I made this thread. For the most part where I work, the majority of people on assistance are pretty decent. Put it this way, it's been the first of the month and I haven't wanted to strangle anyone yet.

People in front of me at the grocery store that have 100 items and I'm only buying a drink... and yet they don't even think to let me in front of them, when I let people in front of me that have very few items EVERY TIME when I have tons of groceries.
