The shortbus driver turning on the red flashing lights...effectively ruining the morning commute of everyone who gets caught in her vile web. Come on, the bus is parked at the curb, with the short bus lifty ramp thing clearly out of harm's way. Why would you prevent the normal flow of traffic for ten minutes that it takes you to waddle out of your drivers seat, pokey to the back of the bus, open the giant shortbus door, lower the ramp, load the kid, raise the ramp, close the door, waddle your way back into your driver's seat and then turn the red light off. By this time, several motorists have used their licensed concealed handguns to commit suicide. COME ON!!!

as insensitive as this is, I wholeheartedly agree. we have a local transit bus that does a special pickup and dropoff every day on my drive to work and over the lunch hour. all traffic gets blocked for 10 minutes, often backing it up into a nearby intersection and causing gridlock.

Because in most states they have to. It is the law. In many other districts it is policy and required by insurance.

Taking pictures of the temperature readout in your car to show how hot/cold it is

Good one. Usually it amounts to "look at the dash of my Audi."

I did this when we got into Vegas a couple of month ago and it was 117. And I drive an A6.#### me.

The OP made it sound like it was something the bus drive did just to piss people off. They're just following the law.You have that many "special people" in Gigs Port or wherever that they get their own city bus?

no. there's one guy. they load him on and off this bus every day, blocking traffic to do it.
 
People that use the remote start on their car when the weather outside does not merit it. If it's a nice 65 to 75 degrees out and you're parked in the parking garage, don't even think about using that ####.

 
Not sure if this is just a Philadelphia thing but dudes love to leave the music On full blast in their vehicles with windows down while they go into the gas station.

No one wants to hear your music brah and if you aren't even there to listen to it, what's the point?

 
MLB umps calling guys out when the fielder takes his foot off the bag before the ball is in the glove. Why the #### do they allow that?

 
Women who think they're "just one of the guys" because they drink beer and will sit through a football game and kind of pretend like they know what's going on.

 
apoligizing in tennis:

when your shot hits the net and dribbles over, winning the point. when your service toss goes errant.

microphones in tennis:

the umpires mic which is almost the size of his/her head. the girl sitting behind the ump following the ball with the 2 foot long mic.

These have bothered me forever. The net cord thing is just luck. No one receiving a serve is going to be rattled by a bad toss.

Wearing sunglasses on your head (backwards on head or neck is even worse). I'll give you a pass if it's on a sunny day and you're just indoors for a few minutes paying for gas or something.

Not sure if this is going to win me any friends (just kidding, like I care) but...

People telling/posting stories of where they were on 9/11. 98% of those stories are not interesting.

We were all going about our daily business. We were all shocked. We were all terrified. We were all angry. We were all saddened.

 
Scenes in shows, movies or video games of someone walking away from an explosion without turning around or reacting.

Cutting short a porn clip a few seconds before the payoff.

Super slow motion of mundane actions in music videos like a rapper getting into or out of a car or a lead singer turning his head and smiling.

When a red light turns green, waiting 3-5 seconds before tapping the gas pedal and taking a half mile before getting anywhere near the speed limit.

Commercials where athletes have to read lines. I can count how many are able to deliver a "funny" or "cool" line on one hand.

Humming or singing along to a song in the workplace.

Loudly playing a youtube clip or video of your ugly kid singing in the workplace.

Talking about your kids.

During conversation, completely ignoring what has been said and responding with a personal story or opinion that has nothing to do with the topic. Which is usually about your kids.

You should send him a note and tell him how many people's lives he is annoying so he will just stay home and not cause traffic gridlock!
