Doesn't it tick you off...

[OldDawg]

Please contribute things that tick you off.
These can be pet peeves.
It can be a situation that upset you, etc.

Here's one for me recently...

I love the deal for the all-in-one printer/scanner/copier for $65. Comes complete with ink cartridges, and all.

However, when I go to replace the 3 ink cartridges necessary, they cost over $70. I am paying more for the ink cartridge replacements than I paid for the whole darn device with cartridges. I should buy a new printer every time!!

[Ziner]

I have done that before. However, I have heard from somewhere that the cartridges that come with the printers aren't full. Who knows about the accuracy of that.

I have a whole thread about my bitching lately, I dont think I need to add anymore.

[waborat]

-People who don't have their check written out (store name, date, signature) when the cashier tells them how much it'll be

-Indecisive people at counters (deli, ticket booth, gambling, etc)

-When people are driving and it's not you

-Lazy fuckers

-People who take too many pictures with their camera ("smile")

-People who think & talk too slowly where you finish thier sentence before they do

-When people talk on thier cells in a restaurant and you ahve to hear every word

-When people don't show up on time

-Blue M&M's

Seriously, wtf?

[skatingtripods]

People who let their children run around unsupervised no matter where they are

Slow employees at the checkout

People who rev motorcycles late at night

Opening a bag of chips to find it half full

People who pay with cash at the gas station

Flimsy lead on mechanical pencils

Humid weather pisses me off

[FUDU]

People who don't use turn signals, it's right there, they've been standard equipment on cars for 50 years, it is an unconditional motion just like breathing use it you stupid fucks.

Grocery store cashiers that don't use the automatic conveyor the way it was designed, meaning let it go on its own, don't turn it on and off.

People who go to the Post Office counter to buy stamps, they have machines that dispense them now just like pop machines assholes.

Customer service reps that ask you for your pertinent information after you just entered it through the automated system two times in the prior 5 minutes that you've been waiting, GFY, page the rep I gave the info to before and get it from them I'm sick of repeating it dickface.

Gas stations that have two registers and have one of them closed when they have 2 or more empolyees working...WTF is a register closed for, you studying for your GED.

People that park in handicap spots, that is the crime I want to get away with, killing them. Fat it's the new handicap.

YES!!!
I hate it when the have you enter your home phone number or account number 50 times while you wait. And then a human asks you for it as soon as you get to one. I really want to yell, "Why the HECK have I entered it 50 times if it doesn't really matter!!!!" I'm with you, FUDU.





And BTW, I might suggest a good anger management counselor!! LOL. I don't want to read about you getting nabbed right before you board a foreign-bound plane in Atlanta some day after a random nationwide string of attacks on grocery and gas station clerks.

[OldDawg]

I love speaking to the customer service reps that are based in a foreign country.

A) Their English stinks.
B) Their English still stinks.
C) What English they do spit out, you can't understand because of the severe accent.
D) Then they speak quietly on top of that, so you can't even hear parts of the heavily accented broken pseudo-English they are spewing at you.


FUDU, my blood pressure is rising...

People too stupid or chickenshit to pull out into the intersection while they wait to make a left turn, preventing those behind them from going straight through the intersection, often forcing people to sit through another red light. (I may yet kill one of these people)

Parents who let their kids run around in restaurants.

Baseball game attendees (I won't call them "fans") who won't so much as clap when the home team takes the field or get off their dead asses to cheer for a hit or a great play in the field, but will jump around and scream and yell and wave when kids are flinging 99-cent promotional T-shirts from the dugout roof.

The Wave at baseball games.

Any guy over the age of 14 who brings a baseball glove to a major league game. Dorks.

Bikers who ride in the middle of the streets of the Metroparks when there is a bike path. People, this isn't the tour de France, you don't need bike shorts and spandex shirts. Get the hell out of my way.

Can't blame the CSRs for that no matter how annoying it is. They usually have a script that they have to read, and the calls are monitored.

80 yr old politicians. WTF? Out @65 like everyone else or die. Please!

Politicians. More of them need to die in office. Those who fit the profile yet continue to get re-elected need to be killed....with Extreme Prejudice.

People who text and tweet while they drive. They need to be run into ditches or telephone poles. Dying in the process would help.

Men who wear crocks. I don't care how comfortable they may be. They scream Fag! Kill whoever invented them.

Fat broads. You smell....and No!, your bulbous building rattling ass is NOT! sexy.

Guys who drive non-military Hummers. Queers. Kill them and strengthen the gene pool.

Reality TV shows and the people who watch them...seriously...reality? Die, please. And take your lame ass shows with you

Steeler Fans. Fuck them. Kill them all. Let Myron Cope sort 'em out.

[Larvell Blanks]

The lady in front of us at Kohl's who questioned the price of everyone of the items she purchased (about 15 items) at the checkout. She practically forced the cashier to get another sales associate to run back to ladies to determine pricing. There are plenty of scanning devices throughout the store where you can get the EXACT cost of the items.

Downtown drivers. People suddenly get dumber once they cross Carnegie.

The idiot behind us at Phantom of the Opera Saturday night. All he did was complain about the fact that I was blocking his view. Being 6'6" and w/ the Allen Theatre built early in the 20th Century, the seats are not the most ideal for today's man. All his bellyaching before the show got on my nerves that I turned around and asked him politely if he and his wife would like to exchange seats with me and my wife. He declined, yet continued to bitch and whine throughout, ruining my night as I felt somewhat guilty about being a freak.

People who don't tip wait staff properly. I always seem to compensate for others in a group when they short change someone who provided great service.

After a couple weeks driving in Italy, I've adopted the practice of getting in people's rear-views and hi-beaming. Not trying to scare people or cause a pile-up, but get the F out of the passing lane if you are not actively passing, especially on a two lane Interstate.

I do the same, they get a hi beam flash, I count to 5, they get a second flash, I count to 3, then I pass them on the right and maybe even cut their stupid ass off afterward.....

Speeding up, passing on the right, then pulling in front to break check 'em FTW

90W to 271S/N from Mentor I've got down to a science. I can get from the 615 ramp to 90W to chagrin BLVD in 16 minutes flat in morning traffic. Just look for a dark blue Audi TT and feel free to give me one of these if I pass on the right. Truth: National City Bank in Mentor to my bro's condo @Cedarwood in Westlake in a shade under 30 minutes without being stopped by Bratenahl 5-0. Considering how much driving I've done at speed, I trust myself at 100mph more than the jackass merging from the left at 50mph every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

So if Diane Lane were to tell you, "Donny, I want to have your babies. Let's move to Stongsville, fuck like minks, raise athletic rugrats and buy a house with a yard big enough for pets..." Your response would be?

a) Can't we just buy a riverview loft at The Bingham?
b) Strongsville is too far away from the Lakewood bar scene for me
c) Slap her and tell her to iron your Kosar jersey
d) Tell her that you would drink her dirty bathwater but you will never live in Strongsville

Good stuff this far, I think most everything has been covered, but I will try to contribute

-Hipsters, like in the Mike Polk video, fuck your shitty beard and your skinny jeans, looking like you have the hiv should never be cool.

-Downtown Youngstown, stop trying to revitalize a cess pool, you can't polish a turd and enough with the shitty coffee shops and call centers.

-Already been covered but it can't be stressed enough, assholes on cell phones anywhere in public, heightened by those with faggoty blue tooths.

-Anyone who shops at Buckle.

-Any KISS radio station and or the DJ on it.

-Assholes who stare you down as your turning the corner.

The New York State police. Listen close...if you drive in New York, be afraid. Be very very afraid. They are ticketing for their jobs.....I'm talkin 10 cruiser speed traps

Illegal aliens. Seriously...I've fucking had it. I want 2000 miles of fence, concertina wire, claymores and trip flares. I want towers with mini-guns on top and troops elbow to elbow....and any politician that disagree with me should die a slow horrible death.

The war on drugs. The only war America ever lost.

Drug commercials. When it takes longer to tell you the side effects and that death may be imminent maybe you just might not want to ask your Dr for it, dontchya think?

People who piss and moan about lines in gas stations or stores.....
Implying that they're just too important to wait an 2 extra minutes.

Here is my version of this same scenario:
You're on an interstate and 2 or more miles away from construction. Signs clearly indicate that the left lane ends, merge right into one lane. 85-95% of the reasonable folks do so and virtually stand still in traffic. Its the 5-15% that see that as a golden opportunity to go 50 mph and pass 200+ cars standing still in traffic that really get under my skin. Hey, guy, you learned in kindergarten that you shouldn't cut in line at the water fountain, but this is OK? I always hope NOBODY will let them in. I know I always don't let them in and they stare at me like I am the arse.
And why is the right lane standing still? Because the 5-15% are nudging in at the merge and making you wait.

[Cerebral_DownTime]

Nah. It's acceptable to pay in any form I choose. If it holds you up for 30 seconds while I get my change, too fuckin bad, you'll wait.

There is absolutly no reason to enter a convenience store except to piss.

Apparently you've never been stoned at 3am and had a strong craving for Nacho Cheese Combos and Reese's Pieces.

Nobody dies from BRS bites. I've been bit by one and had a small bump and then nothing happened. After all my friend's telling me my skin was going to rot off, nothing.

I think that's because your blood alcohol count at 12% basically served to neutralize the venom of the BRS. Your particular BRS has been seen swaggering around at a few local pubs trying to get another hit off of someone like you. Tough habit.

You would never do anything like that, Sally.

Plus, if my gas tank is full, how would you piss in it? Wouldn't you end up pissing on yourself?

My truck is white, so a Swastika probably wouldn't be very visible. Nice to see you fall back on that.

It's not like that CDT, but I am not surprised at your rush to use the "somebody else is always to blame" line, that's liberal thinking, hell that is what they whole HC debate was about. The point about waiting is of course it isn't my fault, I just stepped into the back of the line, the problem is always at the head of the line, other wise there wouldn't be a line. Kind of like when you've lost something, you always find it in the last place you look........

[JCoz]

I have an irrational distaste for people who need several car lengths of space between them and the car in front of them when stopping at a traffic light.

Actually 99% of my bitch normally comes from the road.

MD drivers are the worst I have ever seen and its not close.

Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, Mississippi, Pennsylvania and Germany....I've lived in all these places and there is no close comparison among them.

Simple shit like understanding how the fucking roads work....its a passing lane, not the fucking "fast" lane, meaning you go as fast as you personally feel is "enough" and screw anyone behind you....

If you are not passing people on your right, get the fuck out of the far left lane of the highway.

The result is douchebags who sit in the far left lane which then cause the other pricks on the road to pass using the right lane(s) to pass, and then chaos ensues as people try to exit the highway with a stream of cars flying past at 80 mph on your right.
