    People who drive by my house with the bass all jacked up. Especially at 2 AM. Can you even hear anything else with the bass that loud? Sometime I wish I had a machine gun turret and whenever they drove by I could just shoot their car, and consequently their sound system, to sh*t.

    People who don't know the difference between there/they're/their. Sometimes it's just a typo. But sometimes I swear that people don't know the difference. Same goes for where/wear.

    To be more specific regarding slow people in the left lane: Slow people in the left lane on a 2 lane highway who pull even with somebody going slow in the right lane and they just stay side by side for 40 miles preventing anybody from passing.

    A person can get tasered or worse for pointing a water gun at a cop at a close distance, but a cop can point a radar gun at you from a mile away and you're supposed to know exactly what it is.

    -Pulling a bag of chips out of the cabinet only to find crumbs left in the bag...Just throw the damn bag away. Same thing with the milk carton. Just pour all of it in your glass. Don't put the carton back in the refrigerator if it has one sip left in it!
    -People that sound like a horse when they eat ice!
    -People that argue for an hour knowing neither one of them will change their mind. Just shut the hell up about it and move on!
    -Coworkers who overstep their boundaries and try to do your job for you

    Stop moving.

    [RQUOTER]
    • Not being able to reach a live person when calling customer service.
      Drop the company. Find another.
    • Early termination fees.
      Switch banks.
    • People who can't drive.
      Don't pay attention to them.
    • Traffic
      Take the bus.
    • Not being able to find a parking space
      Get there EARLIER.
    • Forgetting to bring your umbrella when it rains.
      Don't forget your umbrella EVER.
    • People who get to the front of the line and still have to think about what they want (i.e. at movie theaters, fast food restaurants etc)
      Wait your turn and be patient. That's why it's called a line.
    • Holiday Shopping
      Shop at home or don't shop at all during the holidays.

    Get there earlier
    Did you say Interstate? That means it has two lanes for you. Go around them.
    What did you want them to do? Read like SUPERMAN? They're kids, man... not adults. They behave that way, in case you didn't notice.
    Should stores outlaw them because you complain? I don't get it.
    Ummm... I don't know this one...
    Don't go ski on I-70, on the weekends, to Colorado, or a combination of those three, or don't ski at all.
    :cool:


    You know that there are MORE lanes, right? Choose another, please.
    Wear OFF! or another repellant if you know you'll be outdoors or where mosquitoes are abundant.
    Either carry your own toothpick, floss, or brush... or just don't eat if that will annoy you. :cool:

    Put a lock on the cabinet or fridge until they learn.
    Kindly ask them to eat quieter.
    Join in. Make it fun. Or just leave or ask them kindly to take their endless argument somewhere else.
    Thank them for their help, and say: "You know, if you do it right, people will come to ask you to do it again."

    :cool:

    Who's got some more?

    Most of the time, you can't do anything about this. One thing you can do is put up signs or ask the HOA to put "please turn down your volume" signs out there. About the question: you CAN hear a well-wired stereo properly if everything is wired correctly.
    This annoys me as well. What about people who don't know the difference between "sometime" and "sometimes" or people who don't type posts in complete sentences? Don't those annoy YOU? ;)
    This last one is a beauty and overrides my last suggestion about the INTERSTATE. Bravo! :D

    I just got off the phone with a girl (or more like hung up on)... hence adding to the list:

    Girls when they talk on the phone (stereotype)

    no offense to the girls on here or anything. These are the non-sports loving females.

    I find it annoying when people post about how they are annoyed by a certain typo or misuse of a word, only to have a misspelled word or two in their own post.

    I can't stand cable companies that have a due date on the bill, but if you wait to pay it (in person even) on that very day you get a late fee. I mean hey, I am paying it on time. And it is not like they don't know where you live and cannot reach you. Sometimes a person has to take advantage of the due date because cash flow may be low. It would be nice if companies considered that aspect of life... of course high-up corporate execs may not have those issues any longer and they are the people making these "no exceptions" rules.

    And hey... what is the deal with that certain car/truck that passes you on the interstate, then gets in front of you, then slows down to a speed slower than you are going (while you are on cruise control), then you pass them -reset your cruise control- then they eventually come back around you again and repeat the process for miles on end? I usually wait until they'll get boxed in behind a string of cars when traffic picks up, then I accelerate out of there and get away. If that does not work, I just exit before too long, and try to get back up in a minute or so.

    I also don't quite understand why people must say, "It's raining outside." I always want to say, "You think? It doesn't rain inside... and if it does, don't tell me... call a roofer."

    There are more but they may all be just as dumb as these. ;)

    the one-upper at the office.
    everyone has one you tell a story they top it with their "own" story

    the office dumbass
    ours is the receptionist that has been here for 20+ years but doesnt know how to print a spreadsheet from her computer though shown at least 4 different times in the past month. (note she is under the age of 45 right now so its not like she is too old to learn)

    uppity gay people
    i have nothing against gay people or lesbians at all i do hate the ones who believe everything you say is a slight against them because they are gay. the ones who are super sensitive to anything and everything and feel they have a right to be because they're gay. not all gay people are like this but the ones who are piss the hell outta me.

    slutty dressed girls who get upset when guys look at them. hey if you wear next to nothing and have a body from the gods what else do you expect us guys to do? if a girls got a great butt and has her thong sticking out, imma lookin.

    The worst is those stupid customer service lines with voice-recognition. They are so freaking annoying. Worst ever is UPS, followed closely by Fedex.

    One of the greatest things about Southwest Airlines is that every time I have ever called, I just get a person. Immediately, as if I'd called someone's house or something. I <3 SWA.

    What the f? The "10 items or less" aisle is a RESTRICTION on that aisle. It's not saying that everyone with a small amount of items MUST go in that aisle. Geez, I'd be happy if the small-itemed people are in the regular aisles, cause then (assuming you're upset because that's your line), you have someone taking up line space (discouraging others) without using more time up with a big load of groceries.



    And to add something...people using "should of" or "could of".. it's should HAVE or could HAVE. Learn the difference between a verb and a preposition..stop just writing things based on how they sound.
