So, GBS and I are driving down the interstate when this woman cuts me off just so she could slam on her brakes in front of me. “God, you idiot,” I shout as I shove my Ram Charger up her tail pipe. My mom shifts in her seat and asks me to calm down but it’s on and I’m in “Hunt and Kill” mode. It seems silly talking about the little things that piss me off but I am curious as to what upsets others (this does not have to be road rage related). Let me know…and others too.

In original dialect, it’s really quite cryptical, there are many copies around but this my man is the original.
Ummm, SDers that think it is okay to force other people (children) into taking pee tests. And make assumptions that it’s teaching kids to cheat if the parents disagree.
Oh wait, sorry that statement belongs in The Pit.
Ummmmm, of course I have my road rage moments, then there’s the jabber mouth in an express lane, then there’s the customer service phone lines…there’s no customer service if I have to wait 45 minutes to speak to a real human.
People who don’t say ‘Excuse me’ in the hallways and sidewalks. So, I just make it a point to say it as often as needed. I try my best not to get mad, for what will that accomplish? Absolutely nothing.

–The person that cuts across the parking lot while I wait in line to turn at the light.
–The co-worker who complains constantly about not having any money but doesn’t do anything to control her spending. Including that this woman is still paying insurance and car payments for her 27 year old daughter who’s been married for two years.
–Someone telling you they’ll meet you at 4:00 p.m. and then showing up late without bothering to call.
–Those people that will get in the far left lane and then cut in front of you to make a right turn into the parking lot.
Inconsideration. Anytime, anywhere. Like on the road<the yield sign applies to EVERYONE on the access road, you idiot!><Hey, you can’t put your car here, two masses cannot occupy the same space, or did you really flunk school?!?> Terrible manners, from anyone, anytime, for whatever reason. Hey, we’re SUPPOSED to be civilized, after all.
This thing deleted some of my response! As I tried to say, on the road, ie the yield sign applies to EVERYONE on the access road, you fool! and No, you can’t put your car here. Two masses cannot occupy the same space, and I was here first. Besides, my minivan is bigger than your little matchboxexcuseofacar!!!
People who let the door go on your face when you are right behind them, or that don’t say thank you when you hold it for them. I always say you’re welcome anyways. It always gets a reaction heh!
We are, each of us angels with only one wing,and we can only fly by embracing one another
People who think that their way is the only way to do something… or for that matter people that think that just because THEY don’t like something, everyone should follow suit. Sorry, but I like what I like, and if people like something different then that’s their perogative. I hate seeing people put down just because their tastes differ. I say “Viva la difference!”
I really try to be good but it just isn’t in my nature!
People who do not use turn signals when turning or changing lanes. Also, people who ignore the “Lane Ends” signs and wait until the lane actually ends to move over. And even if you and they are the only cars for miles, they must speed up to move over in front of you, and then slow down to slightly less than your current speed.

– People who get irritated when you ask a question
– People who decide its ‘their RIGHT’ to let you know what they think of what you are wearing, and why/how it’s wrong
– People who think they know what length your hair has to be if you’re male/female
– People who use others
– People who think the universe center around them
People in a store who park their carts on one side of the aisle and then stand on the other side of it, blocking the entire aisle and then their annoyed look when I say, ‘excuse me’. Like they really believe they are the only ones in the store.
When a child is crying in a store hearing their parent tell them to ‘shut up’ a half dozen times, but never really trying to figure how WHY the kid is crying.
