Things That Piss Me Off

[twowheelnut]

As a result of my air travel tibulations earlier this week and life in general, I have compiled a list of some things that piss me off. As this thread goes on, I'll be adding more. Just wanted to get the ball rolling...

#11: Airlines, Airports and Air Travel in general

#10: Left lane squatters

#9: Tail gaiting

#8: Rubber neckers

#7: Slow pokes (like 50 mph in a 65 mph zone)

#6: Ill packed vehicles dropping junk in my path

#5: Highway mergers who think they have the right-of-way

#4: Address hunters (you know the ones - driving slooowly down the road, stopping at every driveway to see if this is the place they're looking for...)

#3: The dreadlocked, tree hugging hippy chick driving a 1978 Volvo 245 DL (that her commune living parents, Starshine and Wind, bestowed upon her when their Prius arrived), spewing thick black sooty smoke thus obscuring the Green Peace, Save The Whales, Vegan Nation, Conservation Corps, Sierra Club, Free Tibet and of course, Mean People Suck bumper stickers plastered on her trunk

#2: People who don't use their turn signals

And #1: Fat chicks who wear spandex and belly shirts! Sheeeez, put the rolls away, ladies!

I know what radman's gonna post! Snicker.

TWN... how 'bout people who use cell phones while "driving"?

If someone is driving like an idiot around me, wandering in the lane, braking for no good reason, cutting me off, etc.

I just look to see if they're talking on a cell phone. Usually, that's the case.

People who think if their foot isn't on the accelerator, it has to be on the brake.

Not forgotten, just not listed - yet.

Last year as I was riding north on a rather busy 101 into town in the right hand lane, an Escalade was entering the highway. These were his 'violations':

1. Failed to accelerate to match traffic's speed.

2. Failed to use turn signal.

3. Failed to head check.

4. Failed to use mirrors.

5. Starbucks half caf vente latte in his left hand.

6. Marlboro squeezed between his index finger and middle finger of his left hand.

7. Cell phone wedged between his cheek and shoulder.

8. Handing something to his child seated kid in the back with his right hand.

9. Obviously steering with his knee(s).

He merged into my lane and I laid on the horn and hit the brakes. Good thing the bus behind me was heads-up and had already backed off. So, I swing around this top notch ******, pull up beside him and give him a look and a shake of the head. ******* flips me the bird!

How about people that have one foot on the accelerator and the other foot on the brake?

 

[FJRottie]

People who don't accelerate on the on-ramp but do it on the highway instead,

and of course the off-ramp version. Machine guns can fix that.

#1. People who pull into the left or passing lane and then drive the same speed as the guy on their right, forming a rolling roadblock.

 

[MsLilly]

Don't you just love the people driving slow on a mountain road who, when you finally reach a passing lane, puts their foot in the gas and actually drives FAST not allowing anyone to pass them....then slows back down when they are back to the two lane road. I swear, if I had a machine gun...................... :guns:

Reality TV.

Get over it. I have reality all day...when I watch TV I'd like a little fiction now and then.

 

[FJRottie]

Concur,

Reality TV is pathetic.

 

[radman]

I have yet to disagree with any of the preceeding. Lets add, though, whiney ***** to the mix, especially those who accuse through another agency, and are too chicken **** to present their complaint in person. :angry:

Agreed. Most misunderstandings would be cleared up quickly if people would confront each-other directly.

Concur,Reality TV is pathetic.

I can honestly say that I have never watched a single episode of any "reality tv" show (no survivor, american idol, aprentice, etc, etc)

I also feel somewhat morally superior to those who have. :beee: :bleh: :haha:

 

[LetzRoll]

So true.

 

[BobbyBlue]

Maybe if we all bought old ambulances without reverse lights it would help no?

That's me- standin' on the throttle, until I need to be standin' on the brakes

There's a reason I quit driving sporty cages- too many speeding tickets. I have no clue how I get away with it on a motorcycle...

This past week I've seen 3 different cage drivers reading a book while driving. :angry03:

I wonder why in the hell they think they can pull that one off?
