Not sure. I didn't think we needed to justify our anger in here.

1. When getting onto a highway and there's a car behind you who, even though you're going at a pretty nice speed already, has to immediately coast over to the passing lane and blow by you. Dude, chill out, that's not safe to do. Spend 3 ####in seconds behind me before immediately getting over to the passing lane.
2. People who continue to left turn through a red light after it's changed since they were already there.
2a. The person ahead of me not going when the light turns green and allowing these people to make their illegal left turns for another 3 seconds or so. If my lights green, I go, I don't care if there's someone who is trying to run a red light. Hit me.
3. People who pass in the far right lane when the passing lane is wide open. I always try to block them.
4. People who wait until the last possible second to exit the highway. they drive in the passing lane until there's like 50 feet left and then cut over (usually in front of a car to exit the highway)
5. People who but something at a convenience store in the line ahead of you and after they are done paying take 30 friggin seconds to put their cash back in their wallet, fold it up, put it in their back pocket. Fiddle with the things they just bought on the counter for a few seconds. Step aside and let me put my #### down and pay. Get your wallet back in order in your car #######.
6. People in the mall walking in front of me at 1 mile per hour. MOVE YOUR ### PEOPLE
7. People in the fast food drive thru window who after they get their food, don't pull forward and sit there and check their bag for close to a minute to make sure it's all there. ####### GO
8. Eating in a restaurant and when you're done, the waitress takes 10 minutes to bring you your check. Then 10 minutes to come back and take your credit card for you. Then 10 minutes to come back with your credit card to sign.
9. People who park right in the driveway of my condo complex because they are too lazy to go park in one of the open spots. There's usually at least 30 spots open about 100 feet away from their front door but they need to park right next to their condo in the driveway because they are too ####### lazy to walk 100 feet.
10. People who don't return their grocery carts when they are done shopping. Entitled bastards
11. People who come in to my office while I'm working and try to start a conversation about television or sports or something.
12. This really really fat lady in the lunch room who grabs a piece of garlic bread from the basket when she gets down there. And eats it while her hamburger is being made and then doesn't even pay for it when she checks out at the register.
13. People in front of me at the ice cream place who want to sample 4 or 5 different flavors before making their selection.
14. When you walk into Subway to get a Sub and you're immediately asked what you want by the staff. If you don't know exactly right away they seem annoyed. #####, there's a reason I'm standing 10 feet from the counter. I'm trying to figure out what I want. Go get your gloves on or something.
15. People who call local sports radio stations with questions about their fantasy team when the show has nothing to do with fantasy baseball.
16. ESPN, everything about it. ESPN Classic showing nothing but bowling, bull riding and billiards.
17. Adult Softball League players who think they are athletes.
18. This kid at the gym who works out with no shirt on. It's a key gym, there is no staff there. You just let yourself in a workout. Some 140 pound punk likes to work out with his shirt off.
19. The same kid who grunts and breathes extremely heavy during everything he is doing. I mean REALLY loud. It sounds like he's being castrated when he lifts. We get it guy, you're working out hard - good for you.
20. Dudes who pretend they are scratching their belly but lift up their shirt when doing so to show off their 6 pack.
21. People who call me with a question but then ramble on and on and on and never let you get a word in edgewise, and then begin talking about something else, something else and something else. Get your thoughts together before you call me #####.
22. Waitresses who make you feel like you are a pain in their ###. There's a place I eat once in a while where the waitresses always make the customers feel like they are annoying burdens. HELLO?! We are the people you make your money from. How about acting grateful. I happen to be a great tipper too. Sucks to be you when you act that way.
22a. Waitresses who seem to be having a bad day and you can tell. I get it, you're having issues with your boyfriend, but do you have to be so aloof looking and sounding and morose when you take my order. I always say May I, Please, and Thank you. How about a smile or a thank you in return?
23. Walking into a restaraunt and waiting a long time before the hostess even knows you are there. Even worse when 2 other waiters notice you and don't alert the hostess that she has people waiting at the front door to be seated.
24. Jiffy Lube. It's the quickest place to get an oil chance, but their attempt at selling you 500 dollars worth of extra #### EVERY time you go in there is infuriating. I want to get my oil changes. **** around on my phone in the waiting room and watch the price is right for 15 minutes and go. Please don't bring me into the shop and point out all these things I need. I WANT AND OIL CHANGE. I DONT WANT SYNTHETIC OIL. I DONT WANT HIGH MILEAGE OIL. I DONT WANT SPECIAL OIL. Give me the 30 dollar oil change and get me the #### out of here.
25. Local towns who raise the taxes on my home without actual ever doing an appraisal. My home has LOSt value since I bought it and you're sending me notices that my home has been re-evaluated and taxes are going up. Bull####, you didn't reevaluate nothing. You didn't even leave your office. You decided in a meeting that you needed more money and this would be the way you go about it.
26. People in my condo complex that take their dogs out to the designated area when my dog is already out there. My dog is hyper and will be distracted by the site of another dog and won't take a dump around you. Please look out your window before you come outside. If other dogs are out there, WAIT. I have never taken my dog out when others have theirs outside out of courtesy to others.
27. Women in the office when someone brings a baby in. Work ceases to get done for at least an hour.
28. People in my office building that park in the "Visitor - 2 Hour Parking" area all day every day. I actually heard one of these entitled #####es say "that parking is for me because it's so close to the building". There's like 500 open spots in the employee lot. Why are you so special. When you get called out by the building manager for parking their, #####ing to our entire office about what a jerk the office manager is. Yes, it's the office managers fault that you don't park where you are supposed. They are the #######, not you. Go piss up a rope.
29. The onions in the produce section of my grocery store are always rotting. You can never find an onion that doesnt look like it hasn't been mutilated by an ogre before placing it on the shelf. You kidding me? You're a grocery store.
30. Bosses who ask for something that you've already sent to them.
Yes, I have no patience.

People who want to talk about the price of gasoline in different geographies. "Ya know what I saw last week in Muenster Indiana - gas was $1.39 a gallon. $1.39!!!"
People who ask lots of questions about what roads you took to get to their house. "Didja take the 195? 'cuz that can get really crowded on Sundays. I usually take Sunnydale Road, but sometimes you can cut across on Bush Ave to avoid the lights on Main Street..." Shut. up.

Dude, seriously, lay off the caffeine.
1. Someone making a U turn into the lane you are in, and not hitting the gas when there are nobody in the other 2 lanes.
2. People that stop at a red light, and don't pull up so you can make a right on red.
3. People that sweat at the gym, and don't wipe the machine
4. People that take huge dumps in the gym bathroom
5. People that ask me to do work when i'm chillin in the FFA
6. Planners
7. When someone gives me a half ### dutch rudder
8. People that need you to spot them money
9. People that never bring anything to the party
10. The beeping noise my SUV makes when my seatbelt isn't on.

It annoys me even more when they talk to the cashier about writing the check for above the amount they owe so they can get money back. That's precisely why they should be using a debit card. I've been behind these people so much lately that I almost think I am on some sort of candid camera show where they are waiting to see if I snap at some point.

As I get older I find people annoy me, more and more. I avoid conversations with most people. I find them pretentious or anxious or irritating or, in many cases, they simply regurgitate all the idiotic things that the TV and internet have babbled about within the past 24 hours, most of the time because the person has nothing genuinely interesting to say.
I'm only 35 now. By the time I'm 45 I'll be living in the woods like Thoreau.

You won't like this, but if they're already out in the intersection when the light turns yellow, you'll probably get the ticket and the repair bills. They actually have r.o.w. & it's the only safe thing for them to do, assuming they do it quickly & account for other traffic. If they don't, then they're just in the way for everyone. This is the only way I've ever heard of it being instructed.If they're stopped behind the line and go after the light turns yellow or red, then they're just running a red light.That's quite a list you have there, but I must say I have to agree with this one...

Has anyone said Tyra Banks yet?
I actually sympathize with many of her opinions about the fashion industry, but ### #### is she such a pretentious #### about it. I've caught clips of her show, mostly out of a perverse interest in seeing how a former spankbank Barbie doll would act in a critical format, but holy cow is she annoying. She wants to appear smart and savvy and critical to help deconstruct the stereotype of the vapid, ditzy model, except she ends up coming off as a vapid, ditzy model trying her hardest to sound smart and savvy. As I watch her trainwreck of a show, I feel embarrassed for her, and that annoys me to no end.
Still, nice rack though.

They always end up sitting there until the light turns yellow, then running the light...so only one car gets through.

I was thinking of my FIL when I wrote those. 9 years later, I really believe that he knows the gasoline thing irks me so he goes out of his way to bring it up on every visit. another one: when watching a DVD, all the movie previews, menus, warnings, production company stuff before the movie actually begins. I rip DVDs I own just so I don't have to sit through this every time.

When there's a lot of traffic already in the passing lane.If I have the intention of getting into the passing lane quickly myself and the guy behind me doesn't realize that because in too much of a hurry and ####houses the back end of my car.

Are you planning on using your blinker?Did he?
I see nothing wrong with this, I drive behind these types of grannies everyday, no thank you to the waiting while they make up there mind what they want to do.
Hesitating on the highway is just as unsafe.

I would be fine with getting rid of or lessening monetary fines to government for not wearing seat belts... so long as you are still ticketed for it and reported to your insurance company and given higher premiums for your auto, medical, and life insurance as appropriate. If you want to consciously choose to accept a greater risk of injury and of injury severity, that probably should be your choice. But people who chose to lessen that unnecessary risk shouldn't have to subsidize you financially for your choice.

The blackberry/iphone addicts who think they have to answer an email as soon as the thing buzzes. Dude if people need a quick answer to something they'll call you, not email you. Pay attention to the people in the meeting and not the guy emailing you the latest joke of the day.
Also related is the blackberry/iphone addict who thinks you'll be so impressed that he gets the internet on the phone. If you'll talking about sports or something he'll be like 'hold on and I'll google that on my blackberry/iphone'. You're in love with the thing, I get it. Now the two of you go get a room and ####.

That guy in the gym who walks around talking to everyone and their mother instead of S-T-F-U and just letting people get their work-out in.
And I hate the fact that he always has a giant boyle on his neck (throbbing and sometimes oozing), yet he continues to talk as if everything is cool. It's not.
SEE A DOCTOR ABOUT THAT THING! It's a f'in eye-sore!
