Just though this could get an interesting bitching session started, plus we can find out if we're doing something that irritates the shit out of people.
I'll start with a reply in a minute.

The left lane is a passing lane. It doesn't matter if you are going 1,000 mph, if you are not passing, be in the right lane.

Nice try, but split infinitives are not "grammatically incorrect." | #25 | ||

Split infinitives may be considered "poor grammar" by some, but I consciously use them sometimes (this time, not so much) to add some creativity
to my writing. This link will tell you how some experts feel
regarding split infinitives, notably the Oxford Dictionary, which says that split infinitives are a myth. It also showcases a pretty famous one from Star Trek:
"to boldly go where no man has gone before."

#2. When wife or oil change guy or anyone moves my seat and it takes me 2 weeks to get it right. I'm tall. Sue me. #3. When people don't fully read
work e-mails and I have to end up repeating myself. #4. When someone comes in my office and sits down and doesn't put the chair back where it was. Why the
fuck did you move it? Real anal about that. #5. Bluetooths. I'll quit using my cell phone in the car if TN passes a hands free law. Those are the top 5
today.

if you're in the left lane and a car from behind is in the right lane coming up on you. Do you pull over to the right lane or just stay in the left lane.
Sometimes I ride in the left lane when they're no other cars around. In that situation I just stay in the left lane.

........... the Wal-Mart greeters are even slacking off these days.
Also, holding a door open for someone and them not saying thank you or acknowledging you in some say. I usually tell them I'm going to slam it in their face next time. |

cashiers or clerks who will not look you in the eye or, in come cases, even acknowledge your presence when you are standing right in front of them.
Number 2- People having loud, personal conversations on their cell phone in inappropriate places - grocery stores, etc. |

I've done that same thing (I-55 through Arkansas is much smoother on the left) | #34 | ||

Posts: 839 Jun 28, 2009 1:34 PM |
And in that case its not a big deal.
It just always seems like there is some a-hole slow poke in the fast lane during rush hour on I-55 here in Jackson. (And did the same on 220 as well.

It is quicker than normal coffee. According to Alton Brown, that's why it was invented, some Italian factory owner wanted to cut down on coffee break
time... But yeah, I hate that shit, too.

...Bluetooth's in general are terrible, but my neighbor has his in 24/7. While mowing the lawn, shooting hoops with his kids, at the pool, all the time.
And he runs a laser tattoo removal place, so it isn't like he needs to be all accessed all the time. I want to go up to him, rip it out of his ear, and
beat him with it.

At least I don't have to type out a long post with a bunch of cuss words now because you just posted my exact thoughts. I get so pissed driving that
it's insane. I'm totally convinced that 95% of the people on the road have no fucking business being behind the wheel. I don't know how many times
I've wished I could witness some asshat doing an end over end through a light pole after seeing how they drive. I'm getting pissed off just sittin'
here thinking about it. Fuck

Posts: 2353 Jun 28, 2009 4:27 PM |
If its a close friend I would just straight out tell them(like I have with cell phone belt holders, only one time thought and he is an older friend)
Now that I think about it, I don't give two shits. Use it as a butt-plug for all I care.
