what really chaps my ass is seeing these lady drivers (95% of the time it's a lady) driving a $70,000 suv that you know has bluetooth, yet they are still flapping their skull with the phone to their ear and and driving like a bag of shit.
your car may be able to park itself, stay in its lane, brake when you're not paying attention, etc., but you need to learn how to drive the damn car, and quit looking at me when i yell at you at a stop light for coming into my lane without a turn signal and me having to hit the brakes because you're too concerned about being a chatty cathy on the phone with your sister talking about how big her 3 year old's shit was that day. i don't care so gtfo. |

Two recent cases here:
1. Girl downloading ringtones while driving kills kid on bicycle. Ends up being charged with "Improper lane use" and gets 6 months probation. 2. Older guy has diabetic issues while driving, loses control and hits two students, killing one and badly injuring the other. Get 3-1/2 years behind bars. Same DA in both cases.

I can only hope that the lady I saw reading her Kindle in her Jeep yesterday doesn't hurt anyone but herself...

People who have their phone ringers WAY too loud and it goes off more than once. One time I can understand, but if you're getting text after text and still have it on blast - you're an asshole.

My boss actually corrected one of my peers for having his phone on vibrate but having it on the table in the conference room. It's like, why do that? It's still going to make this loud buzz that everyone will hear. Stuff it in a pocket or turn it on silent.

That's like "Standing on line" vs "Standing in line"

"shut the lights"
Maybe it's a New Hampshire thing, but lots of people up there leave out "with" in many sentences. Example: "Are you done the project?" It makes my skin crawl. |

Being on hold for 5+ minutes then you go through a shitty service area and your call drops.
ALSO, when dealing with a customer service rep and you explain your whole situation and they transfer you to another department and you have to explain it again. |

Deciding to pull behind the one car in the left lane at a stoplight. Light turns green, and *then* the car in front of you signals that he's turning left. And there's no left turn arrow, so now you have to wait for the entire green light, can't move into the right lane because there's too much traffic, and the one car in front of you only turns left after the light has turned back red.

One other one, since our space is u shaped with bathrooms and a common kitchen area in the middle we have 2 thermostats. One each side of the U, well it's an all day battle, one side turns down other turns up, we alternate between gale force NorEaster winds and the freaking Scirocco's of the Sahara. Can't you just leave the thermstat at 75 or whatever. |
