I saw this same BS in one of the men's rooms at Bellagio a few years ago. Someone standing at a public urinal with their pants and underwear down to their ankles. Even if you're drunk have some respect....

this is the bullshit. I do not get paid to do the work of two people, but I do the work of two people on a consistent basis.

I have a combination of both. But my job also entails a lot of driving, so no cubical = happy me.

Someone mentioned grocery store and people just standing around with no cart. I have a similar gripe -when people turn their carts sideways as they are looking for something on the shelf. The aisle is basically three or FOUR carts wide... Yet they still somehow manage to block the ENTIRE FUCKING AISLE. Like they are the only person in the entire store. MOVE the fuck OVER!
I always make sure I'm not in someone else's way. I'm like a ninja -in and out. I don't stand there in the meat section, hemmin and hawin, trying to find the perfect steak. I ain't got time for that!

When you go to self checkout, and people leave their hand baskets next to the scanner, when the stack of used baskets is about 5 feet away, on your way out.

aka; lazy people.

i hate that shit, but what i hate most is when people dont take the extra 30 seconds to walk 100 feet and return their carts to the cart return.

i really enjoy seeing carts rolling through the parking lot into other cars and denting doors and bumpers.

That too! For fucks sake, that's why this country is so fat. People are lazy as fuck and can't even walk an empty cart to the return cage.

I guess that's the American way.

We had a gym here in Florida that closed down and is now a bar. Yup, that's where we're heading.

the gym i go to currently is right next door to a bar.

it motivates me walking by the bar and seeing all the fat people sweating and eating shitty food as im walking into the gym.

another thing i hate is when people come to the gym and stay for 30 minutes with a partner and do 3 sets and go to the bar. like what's the point of that? you obviously dont want to be here so why did you come in the first place?

I'll repeat the ones I agree with and hopefully add some new ones.

People who don't return carts in parking lots. Walk 30 feet instead of leaving it for the wind to catch it and damage other cars.

People who ding other peoples doors. Have a vague idea of wtf is going on around you.

People who can't park in between the lines. Learn to drive please.

People who don't use their turn signals. Risk safety of yourself and others all because you are too lazy and stupid to literally move your finger. Please go die.

People who drive at night/dusk/in rain/overcast weather with their lights off.
Again, risking yourself and others because you are invisible. Imagine the 80 yr old woman trying to see a dark grey car in a dark grey fog all because you are a moron. Die.


People who block the aisle of the grocery store while looking at crap. (another poster mentioned this) Stop being an idiot and again, have an idea of what's going on around you. You aren't the only person in the store!!!

Fat people that order diet soda. It's... not going to help.

People that walk slow. I have places to go, I have things to do. Please move faster or get out of the way (Like when people walk side-by-side in a narrow area)

Traffic. It sucks.

People that swing wide to make a turn. You are in a Honda Fit, you don't need 20 feet to make a turn.

Lip smacking. Grow up, you aren't 5-years-old anymore. Be an adult.

Loud stereos in cars. Nobody wants to hear your awful rap music.

Open-mouth chewing or talking with your mouth full of food. Again, grow up.

People that breathe loudly. Just annoying. As Daniel Tosh said "I can hear you breathing, that's not good."

Gas prices. They are rape.

Country music. Ban this garbage. It is the soundtrack to suicide.

Rednecks. I hate you all.

The confederate flag. You're stupid.

Ricers. We're super impressed with your 120hp Honda. The other night I raced an Integra from 10-40mph and pulled half a car on him... in my Wrangler. I hope he has that POS on craigslist right now.

People that believe beer is the greatest thing on the planet. It's a beverage, shut up.

The sound of typing if it isn't me. Idk why, just annoys me for no good reason.

Kids/Parents that let their kids do anything in public. You know the type.

People that go out in public smelling like B.O. and lord only knows what else. TAKE A SHOWER. Body wash and deodorant is cheap, use it.

Walmart. I don't need to elaborate on this cess pool.

People that hog the left lane when doing the speed limit. This is a biggie. I swear to God I will murder your family with fire if you don't get out of my way. If you aren't doing at LEAST 5 over you don't need to be in that lane for any reason. If you are in that lane, you had better be passing somebody.

People that drive under the speed limit. Get off the road, seriously.

People that wait until the last second to get over when a lane is closed or they are in a turn lane. You are no better than the rest of us that have been waiting in line. Please kill yourself.

People that can't use a computer. It's 2014, learn the Interwebz

People that can't pronounce words correctly. Like another poster said, it's 'Espresso', 'Chipotle', etc.

People that cannot grasp the differences between there/their/they're, your/you're, two/to/too and so on. Where were you educated? Costco? (Idiocracy reference if anyone else has seen that movie).

Misuse of phrases or sayings. "I could care less" is a good example.

I guess a lot of things piss me off.

That's ridiculous. The unfortunate thing for you, is while you're busy judging others ( like it's a loser who works out then goes to a bar afterwards ), those others are living and enjoying their lives and prolly don't give a crap what your cholesterol and triG numbers are. I can' tell you how many times I've played ice hockey or softball, and then hit the bar afterwards with the team and downed 18 wings and beer.

Probably because it's more of a social thing for them, than a health decision to go to the gym. Not everything revolves around that. And wings are actually not that bad for you, if they aren't breaded. They're so damn yummy!

Most of these I agree with, except for the killing their families part. You might want to see anger management about that.
The waiting till the last second to get over is the worst, and the fckr who gets on the freeway ramp at 35mph while the rest of traffic is going 70mph! Welcome to the FREEWAY, MF!

Loved the Idiocracy reference. The only thing is, that movie isn't even funny. It's reality in 2014.

This one, I take exception to. Beer is better than drugs, taxes and our useless President. It's also better than diet soda and ten million other things.

I've been playing hockey since i was 6, and after my games now i will stop into the bar at the rink with my team and maybe have a beer. i am talking about the people who are obese and don't care, then wonder why they have so many health problems and die at an early age. i live my life and enjoy it just as much as the next person, but i would also like to continue to live a long healthy life.

Understandable, but the gym shouldn't be a "fad", and the people who use it as a social thing usually end up taking up the equipment that people who are actually there to workout are trying to use.

and yes, wings are awesome.

Residue from labels price tags etc. I have a hockey stick shaft where the sticky residue from a bar code will not come off. Do I have to spend $7 to get it off?
