More things that annoy me..
« on: September 09, 2010, 01:44:10 PM »
I wanted to give blood today.  The blood drive was local and convenient, and started at 1:00 PM.  I figured I'd walk in, donate, then go to work at 3.  It/s a Thursday, most people are probably working or at school, so I should have no problems, right?

Turns out the parking lot was full, and the waiting list was as long as my arm. 

It's kind of heart warming to see so many people donate, but I also have to wonder how so many people can afford the time to do this in the middle of the day.  It's like the coffee shops in town..  They're constantly filled, from dawn to dusk, and you'd think most people would either be working or looking for work..  Nope, they're just hanging out sipping coffee.

Times must be pretty tough indeed, if people can afford to just hang out all day.

Oh, Dan.

My irk?  People whose attention spans are too short to drive. You know, the guy who's in the turn lane and picks the second before the light changes to go diving into their passenger-side floorboards and root throught the pile of trash for whatever shiny caught their eye for a second. Assburger.

I hate it when people hit their brakes before they use the blinker.  It seems to me that if you're going to bother using the blinker you do it before you start slowing down.

People who slow down for yellow lights
People who don't turn right on red (when allowed)
Slow in the fast lane
Slow in the middle lane
Slow in the right lane
People who still rice out their civics
People who sit at a light where there is a store on the corner to the right.  They could have entered the parking lot before the intersection but instead choose to make a right at the light and then turn into the same parking lot.  Fuckers.

People who don't look where they are going. Just today someone would have walked straight into me if I hadn't moved out of the way

Having to queue for anything.  Old people walking slowly in the middle of the pavement when either side of it would be just as effective.  People repeating grievances.

Yellow lights can be tricky.  My aunt actually did get ticketed for "taking" a yellow once so I hate it when I get caught in that "no man's land" on one.

When I was a little kid and I'd sit on my Grandpa's lap only to feel him getting a hard on.

Was worse thought when the same thing occurred while sitting on Grandma's lap.  :o

Going down the steps to the platform in the train station every morning is always difficult because the people who have just got off the train and are coming up always fill any route, even though they are going at the same speed and could easily walk behind the person in front. I counter-act this flying V by absolutely bombing it down the steps. People move then.

lol

i had to take a cab from the train station to the ferry (to see the statue of liberty) and the cabbie was honking at nearly every stop sign.  once the light turned green, if the person didn't IMMEDIATELY start going (and I mean within a milisecond of the light turning) he'd honk at them.  If anyone slowed down for a right turn or whatever, HONK.  someone changes lanes in front of him, HONK.

I hate when people post a thread about jokes that don't make sense and then post a joke that clearly makes sense.

Lets see if I can make sense out of this. I hate it when your driving down a road that has a middle turning lane then some fucker up the road is making a left turn on to the road your going straight on. My immediate reaction is this dipshit doesn't see me so I'm going to slow down to avoid a collision only for them to start coasting in the middle turn lane waiting for my ass to pass them. Its even worse when there is a left turning lane at a traffic light just up from where they are turning on and you are trying to get in it but the guy is blocking you and waiting for me to pass.

It was killed due to Doctor's malpractice.

That's what "the man" wants you to believe.  It was clearly your dipshittery that got our karma system ripped away from us.

Impossible.  :(

Beast mentioned something about -2000 Karma in one day, and I only pulled -1000 Karma in two days, and then took a break.

People who pass me just to take the next exit / make a turn. I'm sorry 60 isn't fast enough for you, but I'm glad you could get to that intersection half a second sooner than had you just stayed behind me and not been a total dickbag.

also, people who speed up, cut you off just to be stuck behind the guy you were stuck behind.

people who tailgate.

People who accelerate when they see someone making a turn, as if they have to "beat" the guy.  Me, I always slow down a little.

people who speed up after you've put your turn signal on to block you from changing lanes in front of them.

-2 for those who do the above and then SLOW down after you've changed lanes and are now behind them.
