People who creep along a crowded mall parking lot looking for a spot close to the door, and waiting minutes for someone to pull out of a spot so they can grab it. All that instead of taking the easy spot farther from the door, and walking their fat asses in.

Maybe give up the sunglasses? Or are your eyes so pathetically weak you can't go outside with them?

You've never owned a good pair of sunglasses I guess? Putting on my polarized Oakleys when it is bright outside gives my eyes so much relief. I never noticed how much I squinted in the sun until I bought them. They are especially amazing when the road is wet after raining and the sun is shining. It's not about being pathetically weak, it's about being comfortable, and safe behind the wheel.

Packaging for any item made after 1978. After I take the plastic off the CD, why the hell is there a sticker on it? Same with DVDs and Blu-rays; sometimes, after you get through the outer wrapping, you have to contend with three stickers, which invariably leave little glue marks all over the case which was presumably wrapped in plastic to protect it. And why in crikey fuck do I need a box, molded plastic, tape, twist ties, more molded plastic, and plastic insert just for an electric razor? The thing is six inches long! The only reason it comes in a box that's 12x10x8 is so you could fill it with meaningless plastic bullshit. Stop it!

And I'm getting a little sick of beers at bars being filled to the point of overflowing. Literally. You're handed a glass that already has beer cascading down the side of it. You try to move it, it splashes. I'm trying to carry four beers back to my friends, and I'd honestly rather not make a mess of your bar; is that too much to ask? Fill them to within 3/4 of an inch of the top and call it good. I'm not such a depraved alcoholic that I'm actually going to pitch a fit about an ounce of beer missing from my pint; it's either going to be in your keg or on your floor anyway, so which would you prefer Mr. Barman?

And while we're on the subject of bars, I've had about enough of the ignorant morons who try to run off with my custom pool cue because "they thought it was a house cue." Well that's about the stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard. If you can't actually tell the difference between a two-piece cue with a stainless steel joint, Irish linen wrap and decorative inlays and your average crooked one-piece house cue with no tip, well, you just need to stop right there. Leave the pool table, it's not your game. You'll never be able to tell the balls apart. Take up competitive drinking, which you seem to have a good start on already, and stop trying to take shit that doesn't belong to you.

And what the fuck is up with people who just automatically assume you want to give them a ride? "Let's hang out." "OK." "So you'll come pick me up?" What? No! Fuck you! Get a car you lazy fuck! Why should I drive your ass around just because you happen to be a stupid jackass who got caught driving drunk and then subsequently got busted five times for driving with a suspended license? I should feel obligated to drive you because you're clearly too big a moron to handle the responsibility? Fuck off. Walk. It'll be good for you. And no, I'm not giving you a ride after we've been at the bar. I don't give a shit if I look sober. You should have considered your options before you agreed to come out. You getting home isn't my responsibility.

And bicyclists: Fuck bicyclists. They know what they did.

Able bodied people who hit the walk button at a busy intersection, then cross immediately to the next side. The walk signal then triggers 30s later, leaving 20+ cars staring at an empty intersection.
Out of courtesy to other drivers, I will never press the walk button unless there constant turning traffic so a particular lane is always busy.

I dunno. I've never had problems seeing even in the middle of a sunny day with snow cover. I only have trouble when I've been wearing sunglasses and take them off.

I guess I'm just harsh because I see a lot of dorknobs driving around with sunglasses on cloudy days. Especially those big white rimmed ones. Maybe you wear sunglasses just on sunny days and only while driving. If so, you're the exception to the rule these days.

Inconsiderate people, like the ones who don't allow for merging traffic from an onramp or the ones who get off the escalator and just stop without getting out of the way of other people coming up.

If it's cloudy and I think the sun might come out, I'll put them on my head so I can just knock them down onto my face. Oh, and I don't wear white ones, I agree they made you look like a douche.

And when you finally do sit down, you're still up to your ankles in filth.

walk next time, mr. holier-than-thou

Obviously you are one of these people who keeps trash in their car. Shame on you!

I hate vacuum cleaner hoses and garden hoses. They, by some cruel act of god, always seem to get caught on somthing. I can understand it! It is epic annoying.

You worry way, WAY too much about other people's sunglasses.

i wear mine all the time outside. if its bright enough to cause a glare ill wear them. im sure wearing them daily since age 12 has had some ill effect on the light sensitivity of my eyes, but seriously. fuck you if people wearing sun glasses when its cloudy really bothers you.

what really bothers me daily is people that are so fucking nitpicky as to point out stupid shit other people do. really, is your life so goddamn lame you have to point out any flaw in others, no matter how benign or trivial? get the fuck over it, fix something in your life instead of focusing on other people so much. i think ive been reading too many posts here.

You guys ever have that friend that pushes you off the sidewalk as you walk next to him or her?

They'll slowly push you to the left or right for no reason at all, and then you'll notice you're walking on the grass. WTF?

2) People that walk painfully slow in groups and take up the whole sidewalk.


3) Ushers at The Bridge.

4) Double-decker tour buses, the "Ducks", in general, fucking TOURISTS.

5) SEPTA

to add to #2, people who walk slow and can't multi-task causing them to zig zag and thus constantly blocking you from passing them because they always manage to zig zag right in front of you.

QFMFT. damn some people have places to be.

Crappy drivers.

Like what's up with downloading a 500MB file just to get a printer to work? I don't care about all the ink monitoring crap and all the bloat, all I want is a basic non crashing PCL driver. That's all I want!

1) People that can't walk straight on a sidewalk and always seem to block you off when you try to pass.

2) Motorcycles/cars with their too-fucking-loud exhaust pipes. Anything loud in general.

3) Drivers that switch lanes without using blinkers, especially when they do it 1 feet away from you.

4) People in wheelchairs that go 20mph+ and try to ram you, seriously wtf is up with this?

When one earphone stops working. And you have to buy new earphones - again - but in the meantime, you have to listen to your music with only one freakin ear.

Time of the month - and no back up anything.

Using a unisex toilet - and the seat is up, there is pee on the seat, and pee on the floor

Do rags

Going to buy something small - and realising your are 30cents short.

CICADAS DURING SUMMER!!!!!
