Pet Peeves.. Why is it Your on an elevator..You reach the bottom floor with 6/8 other people..The door open's..and always some shit head has to try to get on before everybody get's off...WTF.
Why do some people ride an esclator..get off and look around..or start chatting with somebody else...Why do they get so upset when you bump into the Moron's..
I don't know about other parts of the country..Here in the Boston area..People take stop sign's as a sugestion...Hence they race thru them ,Cut off what ever..and give you a wave thank you...Thanks for what ? Not mashing the gas and broadsiding them as hard as you can. Ok My blood pressure just went down.......I feel better

This happened not long ago and I still laugh at the irony.... I was called to the front....a customer wanted to talk to me. She informed me 'That bitch behind the counter has a fucking attitude"....... ... Humans really have me flumuxed....

One fine winter evening we went downtown (Chicago) to see the early winter parade during which they turn on the Christmas lights downtown. Afterwards we went to a Thai restaurant for supper and were lucky to get seats. The restaurant was very busy and the staff overworked, but I'm sure they could not have been treating everyone as poorly as us. Our server was rude and impatient and never showed up again once we got our meals. After dinner, we decided to have dessert, but couldn't get our waitress' attention. We did stop a passing employee to ask for our waitress, but she still never showed up. After waiting a while longer, we stopped an employee to ask for the check. About an hour after we had finished our dinners and still had no dessert and no check, we got up and left. I still wonder if they even realized that we walked out. Jeremy What was the name of the restaurant, Jeremy? I could use a free Thai meal!.....Jake

Pet Peeves here,
People who stop in the isle of a any type of store, sit there and talk, block the isle and when you come up behind don't move to let you by.
My biggest is people who carry over sized luggage bags on a plane and try to shove them in the overhead and the fucking things won't fit. So they stay there and keep trying to shove it in and hold up the whole plane from boarding. Finally after stuffing in the overhead when trying to get off the plane they have to fight the thing to get it out and hold up the people trying to get off again. ASSHOLES.
Assholes who at a four way stop sign are the second car in line and they follow the first car through the stop sign as if they own the intersection.

Joe, you forgot to add that one compartment they are trying to shove it in is the one right over your head. Guess I'm lucky...I put mine under the seat. Sit at an intersection waiting for an on coming car....that turns....WHERE IS YOUR TURN SIGNAL, ASSHOLE???

Around here 90% of driving is rural highway driving, my bitch... I could be driving along, not a car in front of me, nothing behind me.. for miles. What happens, someone pulls up from a driveway or crossroad, and rather than wait 5 seconds for me to pass, they pull out in front of me. I have to turn off the cruise, or brake, and slow done for them, and inevitably never make it to 45 mph, and usually its in a No Passing Zone, and its 5 minutes before I can get around them. If they waited 5 more seconds... Bastards.

THAT pisses me off too. I hate that drivers get in that left lane on the Interstate and go slower than the people in the right lane. Even worse, around here the nearest Interstate is 3+ hours away, almost all of our roads are two lanes. Theyve built passing lanes (about 1 to 1 1/2 miles long) every 10 miles or so on the busier stretches... assholes get into the passing lane and go about 0.01 mph faster than the car they are passing and use up the entire passing lane going around the one car. The other 20 cars backed up behind the slow car are shit outta luck. THAT pisses me off too.

Here's another. You speeding down the freeway doing 75 with cars in front of you and you have an asshole riding your bumper so close you can see the color of their eyes in your mirror. The same asshole tries to pass you on the right and there is barely 2 feet between you and the and the other car and the just pull in front of you causing you to brake and swerve to the left so they don't hit you. FUCKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What I do know when some tries to pass me on the right I speed up and get my front bump even with the rear bumper of the car on the right and lock that fucker in there. I will make them stay there for about 2 or 3 miles. Pisses the worthless fucker off big time.

Joe, you forgot to add that one compartment they are trying to shove it in is the one right over your head. Guess I'm lucky...I put mine under the seat. For us if it won't fit under the seat or in the over head with ease we check it in. On our way home from Seattle last month I thought two guys where going to have a fist fight over an overhead. One asshole puts two great big cowboy hats up there taking up half the overhead. Another asshole comes with an over sized bag. He take the cowboy hats out and the other asshole goes postal. The other asshole tells the other asshole "why did you put those big hats up there" the other asshole says because I wanted to. Finally the asshole with the hats takes them and the asshole with the big bag stuffs it in the overhead. The asshole then with the hats puts them back in the same overhead along side the other assholes bags. The had to sit next to each other all the way back to San Francisco. I keep waiting for one of them to slap the other. Lets make to one worse. They have their blinker on but it's the wrong blinker. ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Joe

Coming into the Keys from the mainland is the "18 mile stretch" it's two lanes and 55 mph with two passing lanes in each direction. Now what pisses me off is when you get to these passing lanes everyone jumps up to 70 mph except the guy you were behind that was doing 40 and holding everyone else up. He is now doing 80 so he can slow down again on the other side and hold everyone again. Hank

So all the rain from Gustav has been falling on us all day. About 9:45 this morning a major sub-station went out somewhere in the area. It put two of our other grocery stores out of commision plus it was senior citizens day....ugh... This made work VERY busy. So around 12pm today, this little mean fucking old lady with nothing to do but hang out at the local grocery store struts by me and tells me I need to have someone in the lobby with a towel to wipe the buggies off cuz they're wet..... It's so busy I can't KEEP any buggies in the fucking lobby and she thinks I can just fart some extra help so her fucking vienna sausages cans don't get wet? I need a vacation...

Once I was driving down a two-lane interstate in the winter. The right-hand lane was covered with ice; the left-hand lane was clear. So I drove in the left-hand lane. I was the only one on the road, and I was going the speed limit.
A fucking cop pulls me over. His problem? Going TOO SLOW in the left hand lane! Even ignoring the road conditions, and the lack of other cars on the road, I told him, look, dickweed, I'M GOING THE SPEED LIMIT! Anyone who wants to go faster than me is BREAKING THE LAW!! But the ignoramus didn't get it. Fortunately, he was smart enough not to give me a ticket, he just did his best to ruin my day.
Fucking cops.

My biggest is people who carry over sized luggage bags on a plane and try to shove them in the overhead and the fucking things won't fit. So they stay there and keep trying to shove it in and hold up the whole plane from boarding. Finally after stuffing in the overhead when trying to get off the plane they have to fight the thing to get it out and hold up the people trying to get off again. ASSHOLES On our flight home from New York in June we got to our seats, I opened the overhead designated to us, and found it already had a couple of bags in it. Sue said 'Where should we put ours then?' to which I replied 'Well, you can squeeze yours in there and I'll find another one.' A guy sitting across the aisle then gruffly said 'Actually I'd rather you didn't! I don't want other peoples stuff squashed around mine... if you don't mind!' There was enough room but Sue was so surprised she turned around, opened the overhead above him, found there was room so put her her bag in there. I looked at him, he was a big muscular guy who looked like he was used to getting his own way so I decided it really wasn't worth getting into a argument with him, so I found another nearby overhead for my bag, then sat in my seat fuming that we'd been 'bullied' like that. Sue said 'Don't worry, he'll pay for that' and sure enough once we were in the air she *needed* to get something out of her bag, got it out of the overhead and oops... managed to somehow lose her grip and it came crashing down on his head! She of course apologised, but it did look quite painful, and it looked just as painful the next two times she had similar 'accidents' as he slept his way across the Atlantic Simon

The only hope one can have with bullies is that someday they meet their mentally challenged equivalent.
I was always the skinny kid growing up and I'll tell you that I had many experiences with bullies. (given my size!) None of which were my physical equal, of course all were considerably bigger. Still, I fought when I had no choice, it's so stupid.
The guy on the plane Si must touch everyones life, wherever he goes.

The bullies I have met are all cowards. I have found that making eye contact with them usually quiets them down and they realize they have met someone they can't intimidate. However, if alcohol is involved then you have a fool on your hands.
Simon, if I had been on that plane with you and your girlfriend I would have given her a high-five.

I read somewhere a fellow was getting on a plane with a first class seat. The person in front of him put their carry-on right above the seat the first guy had. He complained, "hey, that's my overhead bin!" The other guy said "tough," put his bag in the bin and headed back to COACH!
Now, the bag was too big for both to fit, so once everything was settled down a bit, the first class passenger quietly took the bag that belonged to the coach fellow, put his in place, then took the bag to the front where he respectfully asked, "There is no room for my bag. Could you please check it?" - which the attendant did without a problem. The attendant gave him the claim check.
As he was leaving the plane at their destination, he gave the claim ticket to the same attendant and said, "someone in coach is going to need this. You'll know who it is!"
I'm sure he walked smugly off the plane with a big shit-eating grin on his face!! ;D
