    I probably have too many to list, but this morning my boss has just been driving me crazy with his constant yawning that you can hear down the hall. Is it that hard to yawn without making any noise?! People that don't care if they bother other people just get on my nerves. A few others:

    People that wear sunglasses inside. I realize it may be necessary for some people, but c'mon, seeing some of the fans at that game last night was just hideous!

    People that think they own the road. Driving on the shoulder while everyone else sits in traffic, cutting people off while going from the feeder to the freeway instead of waiting their turn, and driving slow in the fast lane (when you see people right on your tail and people constantly going around you, that's a sign!). Of course there's my biggest one....you're coming up to a red light to make a right turn, nobody in front of you, then one of the first few cars in the lane to the left decides to get over to move up a few car lengths...now you get to wait for the light to change.

    I'm sure I could go on forever, but I would like to hear some of yours.

    People who don't understand how a roundabout works. It's been 2 days in a row now that someone drives straight into it assuming they have the right of way.

    Yesterday I broke hard barely avoiding a crash and the woman looks at me like why didn't I stop to let them in. Today they broke hard, nearly clipping me, and they give me the same look. Learn the basic ****ing rules. It's too easy to get a license. We should make it more difficult, more like European requirements.

    People on cell phones during a transaction. Checking out, checking in, ordering food, etc. This annoys the hell out of me.

    When someone chews with their mouth open or talks while chewing is a big one for me.

    I also hate after they're done eating, when they suck their gums.

    people who use punctuation unnecessarily... there was no sentence in what i wrote before or what you wrote above. Capitalization, you get a point ;)

    I never tire of these threads.

    1) People who talk on the cell phone while driving.
    2) Guys who drive enormous trucks for no reason at all.
    3) The "swerve around you like a jackass to gain one car length" guy.
    4) People who insist on using self check-out and are either intolerably slow or totally ignorant of how it works.

    Ladies who come in the break room while I'm nuking my lunch and say "whatcha got there, fajitas??" Do you REALLY care what I'm having for lunch? The answer is no. So why are you asking me?

    The people here at work who have the "big fish in a small pond" syndrome. The ones who were promoted to management only because they have managed to hang around for 30 years without eventually deciding to move on. They walk around like they are Donald Trump and treat every pointless remedial task they take charge of as if it involves splitting the atom or something.

    Overall ignorance to anything not USA related

    "You don't have 4 seasons in _____ country?"

    "Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, they all the same?"

    People who don't say thank you when you let them in your lane.

    People who walk so damn slow in parking lots when they know there is a car behind them

    People who blare their music as if anyone cares what they are listening to
