What gets to you?

Ear worms. Horrible things. I went to shoot pics at the county fair last night and they were playing the Bee Gees. Now I have one of their horrid songs stuck in my head. Ugh.

Some of these people ruined movies that I enjoy.

I have Chuck Mangione - Feels So Good stuck in my head... One of the computers I'm reviving had some a student do some weird customization done to it and had that as the startup theme and a recording of "This computer is starting, please wait" instead of the standard piano medley XP has... Even worse? Every time I hear that song, I think of the one scene from Let's Go To Prison

Sorry, new students... Every computer will have DeepFreeze on it from now on.

I tend to drive a bit more safely with my son and wife (son is an infant). Yesterday when the high speed EZPass said speed limit 50 mph, I actually coasted down to 60 mph. This old dude in a new Ford Explorer comes up on me and then makes a violent lane change and cuts me off and gives me the finger.

Oh, he was just displaying the score he got on his IQ test. 1 IQ point

Yeah honestly I feel bad for these people. Bad drivers who constantly get angry at others driving "only" 5-10 MPH over the speed limit almost invariably tend to be poorly educated trash. I try my best to stay away from them.

Hehe I know on my commute I can turn aggressive if I'm running late. But I really do see things differently when there is an infant in the car....

People at the self checkout line that have no idea WTF they are doing.

These turds usually screw up scanning something simple and usually attempt to pay with cash and 3009 coupons. Then a worker has to come over and fix the simple screw up and this usually takes 3-5 min.

Makes me so mad.

I will just assume that you are talking about the stupid people; I too am upset by them.

John 070 · 08-04-2014, 12:04 PM

How about when you begin to take a left turn, with a solid green left arrow, and the car coming the other directions takes a right on red?

The intersection near my office is a hotbed for this. I never run into this issue anywhere else, but it is rampant at that one spot. I don't pull from the green without covering the horn.

Billup · 08-04-2014, 12:28 PM

I have to make a U turn to get to my apt complex.

People who get behind me at the light, that want to turn left, seem to have this thing with blasting the horn automatically thinking that I am turning left, instead of a U turn, and thusly, need traffic to be clear.

I have finally gotten fed up to it where I'm now sticking my head out the window, telling people to lay the fuck off, and then sit at the light until it turns red to make them wait.

I usually keep my mouth shut over anything traffic related, but this has happened so often, I can't take it anymore.

Well, stupid people and technology don't mix... ATMs, gas stations, and even at stores that has a card reader (both self checkout and cashier-assisted) where it'd take all of 5 minutes trying to get it to work when it'd take the average person less than 20 seconds to swipe, signature or PIN, green button, GTFO!

.

But I will tell you that the self checkout is a Godsend when it comes to stuff for a significant other's lady parts

... Tampons or rubbers are both equally awkward to buy with a cashier in my book.

M_Six · 08-04-2014, 05:16 PM

I think it's been mentioned here before, but people (mostly women) who will waste everyone's time by digging and digging in their purse or wallet for exact change. Some middle aged woman did this to me yesterday. She was buy a Mountain Dew and just knew she had exact change. After digging through her wallet for 5 minutes and not finding the exact coins she needed, she started in on her purse. Finally she found the dime that she "just knew was in there somewhere." And after all that, she has the nerve to pull out her frequent buyer's card to ask the cashier to look up how much credit she had on it. Like we all had nothing better to do than stand around in Walgreen's waiting for Mrs. Prima Donna to finish wasting our time.

DemolitionJim · 08-05-2014, 01:18 PM

getting up for work in the morning, taking a shower, and then right after you get dried off and dressed, you gotta take a shit.

there is no worse feeling that being completely clean and ready to start your day, then to get mudd butt or explosive diarrhea (neither were the case today), and not have time to take another shower.

leaving the house feeling like a dirty hooker on the walk of shame at 7:30am is no way to start your day.

Uber V8 · 08-05-2014, 01:43 PM

I have no idea why I get so fukn irritated when a large ass fly continuously buzzes right in my ear when I'm eating.

I seriously wish I could grab the little fcker by the neck and say "YOU WANT SOME OF THIS FOOD?! THEN EAT THIS SHYT" and proceed to stuff it down the fly's little ass throat.

Ok, I'm getting carried away, but I seriously hate flies buzzing in my ear.

Billup · 08-05-2014, 02:19 PM

I get more irritated when I have my window cracked, and I'm sitting at a red light, and the only wasp in the entire area, feels the need to fly in the tiny crack, and proceed to have a break down trying to get back out.

Which reminds me, the "IQ test" that's running rampant on facebook is a scam. Everyone gets the same score. Total nonsense.

Uber V8 · 08-05-2014, 02:48 PM

When people say stuff like "he/she is doing really well now, he/she drives a BMW."

This phrase can annoy me one of two ways:

1. It's really a 2001 318i and it's barely a BMW. (no offense guys)
2. It's a fawking 2014 BMW M6 and it's not just a BMW.
