    I'll do you one better, EWS...fat cops

    OMG, I wish I had a dozen glazed doughnuts every time I saw some lardass cop walking around, especially when you KNOW that police departments have physical fitness requirements that aren't being followed. Every time I see one of these jellybeans, I'm tempted to smack him upside the head, just so I can watch him huff and puff while he tries to catch me.

    Just let me be a police chief for six months. I'd line up every cop on the force, give them a physical exam, then tell the out of shape ones they have six months to shape up, or they're being replaced...

    And it was my b****ing about the parking garage that led him to try and misinform us.

    You told me that state law says the speed limit in my private parking garage is 5mph. It's not.

    but it wasn't right, boomer. the only law regulating speed limits in a parking garage is related to municipal parking garages, which MAY represent about a 1/10th at best of all parking garages in our fair city.

    I used to live by a trailer park that had a posted speed limit of 3 mph.

    (well the sign was home-made but they tried really hard)

    This thread has taken a turn for the amusing but oomp made me cry laughing. Perfect timing on a great one liner.

    Is it even possible to drive 3 mph in a car? I would probably get in a wreck if I tried to drive that slow because I would be constantly looking at my speedometer trying to figure out where the little hand falls between the 0 and the 5. lol

    I only measure speed in 10 mph increments, anyway. I won't drive 5 mph in parking garages. I REFUSE! Besides, there's noone around to ticket you if you do drive over(that I've ever seen, anyway).

    Agreed. I think "You need to walk that **** off." could be a candidate for a sig. I don't know why but I just laughed and laughed when I read that.

    Is it possible to get this thread back to where it started? People complaining about every little detail? Oh wait, that's where it already is! How can 3 pages be wasted on the speed limit within parking garages? WHO CARES?!?

    Ok, back to the important stuff:

    Groups that stand in the middle of halls and talk...MOVE TO THE SIDE SO OTHERS CAN GET BY!!

    Smokers that don't care if they're bothering anyone else.

    When your driving up to a red light your going to turn right at. Then the second car in the lane next to you wants to move up 1 car length so they pull into your lane. Now you get to wait for the green light to turn right.

    I'm sure I could go on and on.....

    Oh, there are so many. Mostly to do with driving.

    Not stopping for red lights, not going for greens.

    Blocking the box.

    Hanging out in the passing lane.

    Riding my ass in the slow lane.

    Not using turn signals.

    When I'm stuck behind a left turner, signal to change lanes and the guy behind me darts around me as I'm moving over.

    Using the shoulder to go around traffic at an exit ramp.

    Non-driving ones:

    Virtually everybody in the grocery store. What is it about grocery stores that turns people into oblivious sleepwalkers?

    People that don't acknowledge you've held the door for them. I always say, "You're welcome" so they know that I know they're being assholes.

    People that walk on the wrong side of the street or the wrong side of the subway stairs in NYC.

    People in bars that don't get the light tap on the shoulder system when they're in your way.

    Ringing cell phones. I know this won't be a popular one, but you have a vibrate option. Ringing phones are noise pollution.

    People that have lengthy, unnecessary cell phone conversations in restaurants, etc. Go outside.

    People that talk on cell phones while driving.

    Pool players that play defense.

    Total indoor smoking bans. I really don't want to foul the air for non-smokers, but give me like one bar out of a million where I can have a beer and a cigarette at the same time and I'll agree never to smoke in any of the other ones.

    Non-smokers that give me dirty looks for smoking on the sidewalk in the freezing cold after they put me there.

    Sin taxes.

    Republicans.

    How could I have left that one off, dam that pisses me off. They just walk through like your not even there, almost like they expect you to get the door for them.

    People that talk, especially on cell phones, during the movie really piss me off to. Also, people that bring their infant to the movies, especially movies that are obviously not intended for children, and then sit there and let them cry for the whole thing. I'm soooo ****ing glad that they have decided to continue that sparkling genetic lineage.

    I agree.

    People that sign their name after every post - that's another little thing that pisses me off. :p ;)
