It ends up taking this lady a solid 5-7 minutes to get 8 items scanned and payed for. Meantime she keeps looking back at everyone saying how sorry she was :devil:

You were deprived of my favorite, she coulda stood in line knowing perfectly well she was gonna write a check and then when it's her turn, not only does she NOT have the thing pre-filled out, it takes her 5 minutes to find the checkbook in the bottom of her American Tourister-sized purse. :cursing:

Just before your hands close around their throat you've gotta remind yourself the low-IQ, mouth-breathers can't help it. They and their 10 siblings with different Fathers are a victim of heredity. :huh:

"Oh also, detailers who try to discredit your work and then go right around and copy your product and process step by step... hence why my writeups will be having less information in them in the future!" :eek:

I hate to hear that,but it's understandable.
 
it bugs me to no end when i'm sitting behind someone at a traffic light and when the light turns green they turn on their signal to turn left...aarrrggghhhh
 
Let's see....

People who talk in movies
People/kids who kick the back of my chair in movies
That a$$ clown who thinks he needs to drive the speed limit in the left lane
Single riders in the HOV
People who don't cover their mouth when the cough/sneeze
Honda drivers... haha
Cell phone usage and driving
People who speak in texting language (ie - omg, wtf, etc.)
MTV - remember when it used to be about the music videos?
The hierarchy of the BCS system
Panhandlers
Obnoxious drunks
Having to press "1" for English

... and those are just the ones I can think of right now
 
LOL Dave, I could write a post just about Gym Pet Peeves...

Curling in the squat rack. If you cannot lift your 135 pound bar off the ground go do some deadlifts. There is NO reason, ever, to hog a squat rack for curls.

Leaving weights on the machines. Sorry but ladies struggle to lift the 14 45lb plates off the leg press... You put them on, take them off. (I personally don't mind removing weights as I make a mini work out of it but it is unfair).

Anybody who is not a professional bodybuilder that is dieting and three weeks out from a contest and spends more time looking in the mirror then working out.

Guys who scream every rep, everytime, to draw attention to themselves.

People bring the whole rack of dumbells with them.

At the end of the day most gym people are pretty cool though. Usually good for a spot and I have never had a person not let me work sets with them, but for all the common courtesy, there is some wierd and annoying behavior.
 
Kids that are hooked on cell phones. My 11 year old son tells me that the kids on his school bus text each other while they are on the same bus. Why can't they just talk to each other? They hold onto these cell phones like they are going to jump out of their hands and do a trick for them. What do kids that young need cell phones for anyway. They are in school all day, who are they calling. My son has my wife's old phone, and is only allowed to use it incase of an emergency, or if he gets home from school, and nobody is home. He calls us to tell us that he is home.

Also, people who don't use hands free while they are driving.
 
Endzone Dances!!! Grow up!

Do you really have to celebrate to get on camera after EVERY play?

Do you ever see baseball players "air-hunching"?

Get a life.
 
I'm feeling a lot of your collective pain. I hate when people leave the gym equipment sweaty. I hate hate HATE it when folks wait until the very last minute to get over in order to make a turn, skipping people who have had to wait any number of minutes for their turn.

The ultimate outrage: thoughtless, inconsiderate pigs who let their doors (or their kids' doors) swing open when exiting/entering their vehicles thus causing varying degrees of damage to the hapless victim parked in the next spot.
 
My biggest one period is when someone needs to blow their nose and sniff back up instead. My remedy is usually just to punch said person until their nose is bleeding profusely and they have to wipe it. HA! (Kidding Flash, just kidding. I really don't have anger issues, I am just an internet Billy Bad...)

Other than that, I have came a long way in being a little more patient with people.

... but I bet you don't see many end-zone dances there in Kansas City... ohhhhh:devil:

I prefer the leaping into the stands that gets the fans involved in the celebration.
 
Couple More.....:devil:

A freind of my wifes stopped by the other day and drove over my hose end. It was covered in leaves/leafs, so I couldn't get real upset, but.....:devil:

I loaned a neighbor an extension cord during the summer. I went to use it and the thing had 18 knots in it. How do ppl manage to do this :devil:
 
Guys who always harmonize the last few notes of "Happy Birthday".

A celebrity couple who adopt a Third-World baby and call it "Rain Forest".

Guys who wear suits all day and think an earring makes them look cool at night.

Men who have one long uninterrupted eyebrow.

Any man who wears a suit and tie to a ballgame.

Car or house alarms going off without anyone in sight to turn them off.

A crying woman with a harpoon gun entering a sports bar.
 
....you're following a guy down the road in right lane anywhere, and he thinks he has to come to an almost complete stop without a turn signal before turning right into any place of business........


Kills me every time.........
 
I identify and agree with so many on the list...to which I will add this one just because it just happened.....

I am at the dentist for my six month cleaning and the technician tries to carry on a conversation with me while she has 2 instruments and most of her fist jammed half way down to my tonsils !

Most gyms are a place where people put on a show, people are less concerned with proper form and constant progression and more worried about how they present themselves to everyone around them.

Its funny to see guys who go right to the bench with a plate or two on for their first set, no warm up, no pre-exhaust... why? Because they are afraid to be seen with anything less than 185 on the bar.

Even the most experienced powerlifters warm up with the bar alone. My gym is split between pure retards who do the above and hardcore guys who dont say a word until they are finished with their workout.
