Adult "kids" who still live at home. I have a few friends that still have lingerers. Even in some cases being engaged, having jobs that in 2 cases pay more than their parents. Yet these parents let them suck off them for free food, housing, utilities etc. Even make excuses for them. To heck with that. Get OUT!! Sure..If something bad happens and you need a place, our door is always open and the kids know that. but if you're grown up enough to get ENGAGED!! And have a good, full paying job, get out and get a place of your own. Grow up for crying out loud.

Are they Italian? This is very common in Italian culture. Other cultures too. I think it's mostly an American "value" to kick our kids out at 18.

I realize I've posted this at least twice here (which could be someone else's pet peeve), but people watching videos on their phones in public with the sound up just has to stop.
At fast food joints, at airport gates waiting for flights, etc. It's an absolute epidemic.
I mean, how stupid do you have to be to not understand that you are annoying people around you? They make earbuds / headphones for a reason. I almost want to go buy a bunch of cheap earbuds off Amazon so I can throw them at these idiots and say "HERE YA GO FELLA!"

I know, I know. I just get shockingly reminded of it every so often. Happened yesterday at the Sacramento airport. Sat down at the gate, some schlub sat 5-6 feet away and was watching some loud-azz video for at least 5 minutes.
Seriously folks, if you do this, please stop.

There's your problem right there, thinking they don't understand versus realizing they simply don't care. You need to come to grips with the fact that this country is filled with self-centered people that believe the world revolves around them and no one else matters.

We all understand pedestrians have the right of way in a parking lot. That does not mean that the quad cab dualie pickup and the ginourmous soccer-mom SUV that someone is trying to back out from between suddenly become transparent just because you are near. It would behoove you to get your head out of your cell phone, and your arse, and not walk 2 inches from the parked vehicle's bumpers while paying attention to your surroundings so you don't get hit. I know it's a lot to ask when you are the center of the universe and that text simply can't wait the 30 seconds it takes to get through the parking lot to the store entrance. But you may just want to consider taking a little responsibility for your own safety.

That and the flip side the people driving 30mph through the parking spots and lay on their horn when you are backing out because you know you can't see traffic coming until you move a few feet

Maybe you should just find a different group of friends so you don't have to hang around with people like that. Just a suggestion.

Yeah but if it wasn't for those people, this thread would be like three pages long and where's the fun in that?

Every application for any job these days includes a way to apply online. In that, you attach your resume. Then, in several of them, they have a questionnaire attached to weed people out Id guess. Well, those questions, are exactly what is on the resume. Why even ask for a resume if you are just going to have me summarize my education and work experience in the questions anyway?

I wonder how they'd feel about the response, "Please see attached resume." I mean, I personally would give that applicant extra points, but I'm guessing it wouldn't go over well very often.

This is annoying but it is hardly “these days”. It has been this way for at least 10 or 15 years

Well…its “these days” for me as I had not gone through a formal search in that time period.

Speaking of parking.... a couple of houses directly across the street usually have like 4-5 "extra" cars which have to park along both sides of the street. Sometimes one of these jackasses park where they're blocking about 1-2 feet of our driveway. Like..... seriously?

really?
isn't that just about the most hillbilly, inconsiderate things someone can do when parking their car?
maybe just behind banging their door into your car or running over someone

I've got another dog poop situation.
First, I have a dog, a big dog, who takes big craps. And he won't poop in our yard. So, fine, actually works out better. Poops on his walk every day, and I pick it up 100 percent of the time. If I happen to walk by a dumpster at like an apartment building or a garbage can at a park, I'll toss it in. Otherwise it comes home and eventually goes in our outdoor garbage can.
Here's where it gets peevish.
Because I don't want the smell of dog crap overpowering my garage, we keep our garbage can outside next to the garage up against a fence. Now, another eccentricity, I'm sure, is that we don't throw the poop bags into our garbage can right away. Why? Because then they get smashed by the garbage bags and stick in the bottom of the can and don't fall out when trash man comes.
So I'm sure that puts me in a Progressive commercial already, but I have my reasons. So the poop bags sit in a pile next to and behind the garbage can until garbage day. Then I throw them inside on top and roll the can down my driveway and place on sidewalk. But garbage man doesn't usually come until late afternoon, so many times, people will walk by on garbage day and throw their poop bag inside my can.
Now, I find that unacceptable, but that's not even where I'm going with this. I would never in a million years open someone else's can and throw poop on top. And, yes, I know it's on public property at that point and why should I care, yadda, yadda, yadda. It's an abomination.
HOWEVER, there's a new development. I have now discovered multiple instances of someone walking up my driveway on non-garbage days, going up to my can leaning up against my garage, apparently ignoring the pile of full poop bags sitting on the ground next to the can, opening my can and throwing their poop bags inside my can, sometimes on the bottom where they're bound to get stuck.
Now I'm not exaggerating at all when I say I would feel justified in murdering someone if I caught them doing it.
So I'm trying to decide if a 24-hour-a-day stakeout is warranted here until the criminal is apprehended. I think it is.

So is it possible to keep your cans in the garage, but leave the poop outside where you do now until trash day? That may eliminate the temptation of said poop-ahole to dump his poop in your trash can.
BeTheMatch
Footballguy
Yes, I could probably make room. And I'm considering that. Also considering putting the can inside the fence, where it wouldn't be seen. That would just make it a little more inconvenient for me, especially when my son's car is parked in front of the fence gate.
That being said, I feel VIOLATED and should not have to do this!!!! Vengeance will be mine. It's just a matter of when and in what form.
IvanKaramazov
Footballguy
Violence is never the answer, but pooping on this person's front porch would seem to be called for.
BeTheMatch

Well, it is Oregon... So there's a good chance what I assume is dog poop in my can may not be.

My leading suspect is the old lady I caught several weeks ago letting her dog crap in my yard and then didn't pick it up. Opened my front door on her and said, "Oh, really? Just gonna leave that there then? We live in a society!!!!"
And then I may or may not have followed her on foot so that I could see where she lived and file it away for future reference.
BeTheMatch
Footballguy
The other suspect, of course, would be the Amazon bandit, who may be coming back to avenge the raking he took and the loss of his bike and glasses.
ThaPenguin

Any chance it is your wife or kids doing this when they walk the dog? Or are you the sole walker?
Just trying to make sense of it, as the audacity of a stranger to do that is unsettling.
BeTheMatch
Footballguy
Nope. We have exclusively green bags. The subhuman is using blue bags.

Prior to online applications, as far back as I can remember, every company that I worked at would take your resume but also ask you to fill out a written application, which largely asks you to repeat the information that is on your resume.

People that do things too early for no reason.
Wife's sister is coming into town. Air mattress takes 5 minutes to set up and put sheets on.
Wife sets it up 3 days before. I have had to move it three times already to get at things.
We are moving buildings for work at the end of February. Somebody has already removed all 8 items that were hanging on the walls. They have not removed any nails from the walls or done any patching. Just removed the stuff. Literally 3 minutes worth of work. It is now all on top of the paper shredding bin. It was on the conference room table. Then on the lunchroom table. Then on a desk.
Idiot.

never understood the anger about this one

are people rooting around in their trash cans on the curb to see what others have dropped in it?
