Jogging with your shirt in your hand.Driving with a dog in your lap."In Memory of" graphics on rear windshields. I don't really need a roving billboard to remind me that someone I never knew is dead.Really any kind of graphic or bumper stick that people attach to their cars. Some are worse than others, but they all need to go.

I saw my "favorite" the other day. You know how folks have the whole mom-dad-billy-suzie-stick people chain on their back window, I guess to show the fact they are actually capable of replicating? Well, was behind a van yesterday that had "mom"-"dad"-dog1-dog2-dog3. So I guess they were proud of the fact that they could go out and buy dogs. Seriously people, WTF? You think ANYONE gives a #### that you have dogs? Or kids? Or both? I'm pretty sure had I spoken to these people, the urge to punch them in the throat would have been overwhelming, especially when they inevitable "our dogs are just like our children" comment came.

I actually saw a good one with the stick figures. Mom and a couple kids... spot where the Dad would go was blank with "Position open/accepting applications"

Utah shtick

 

[Kal El]

Wife has the family stickers on her car, with both kids and dogs

Why? Serious question, because I don't get it. At all. Is she proud of the fact that she had sex at least (insert number of children) times?

Maybe Kal El has ED trouble?

I put the bagface there since others were deriding their presence on vehicles. Personally, I'm proud that I'm virile.

[Zegras11]

Enthusiastically greeting me when I (or anyone) comes into your store/restaurant. I experience this most notably at places like Jimmy John's/Qdoba/Five Guys. "Hi, how's your day going!!!!" F off.

And when you leave, "Did you receive quality service today?" Just ####.

Would you return to the place if someone greeted you with an "F-off" instead of "Hi, how are you today?"

It doesn't stop me from returning... it just annoys me. Actually, a hearty F-off might just be that breath of fresh air I'm looking for.

This is the natural way to do it when you have something you are cutting, like a piece of meat.

So when you cut a piece of steak, do you turn the fork around in your hand?

 

[Glass Joe]

"Gun grabber". Is this some kind of meme on gun message boards?Its not that it's insulting, it's more you look like a weirdo saying it. Kinda like calling a northern "Yankee". Or a white person "cracker". You just kinda shrug.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

The "love my life" posts on Facebook are rather obnoxious, mostly because these same emotionally fragile women will generally post something about how they are ready to give up on that same "loved life" days before or after. I think the proper translation is "my life is a complete train wreck but today ain't as bad."

Posting how many days you've been sober on Facebook. If you really know--to the day--how long it's been after a year and a half you're probably better off just to stop obsessing and have a cocktail. In any case, nobody else cares.

Don't have any FB friends doing this.But your comments are pretty harsh. I'm sure the public mention helps them maintain.

Had no idea Stanford and Berkeley called it that. They should trademark it and then all commercials trying to get people to buy TVs and nachos in late January would have to refer to "the significant event."

Been happening with sports announcers, mainly college basketball, for years. "Physical specimens" and "sculpted bodies" are frequently oohed and ahed. Agree with immediate stoppage.

I believe it's been mentioned already. Yes, I too cringed at Joe's post. Both times. Why he repeats all of his posts on the FBG and personal account is beyond me.

Oddly enough, many American spies in WWII were caught for just this reason. Europeans don't switch the fork from one hand to another, but it is common for folks from the US. Until they figured it out, it was a dead giveaway.
