Do first world problems count?
The way my car’s backup camera is perfectly positioned to receive road splatters, turning my dash screen into a big gray field of nothing.
Speaking only for myself, I will go to the line that I feel will minimize my time to check out. This usually will be the express or self checkout, but not always, especially if I have several of the same item (the checker can do “x @ $.¢¢”). If you get in line behind me after I do this, you chose to be there. :rolleyes:
Optimism versus reality. :smack:
galen ubal’s cat has better gear and more online friends.
Speaking of checkouts, when I use the self check and the programmer wasn’t bright enough to have the program recognize that NO ONE EVER will bag a 20 pound bag of pet food or cat litter. Or a box of furniture. Et cetera …
People who say “carmel” instead of caramel. I usually respond with “Do you mean caramel? Carmel is a mountain in Israel.” :dubious:
Using the word “mouthfeel.” 
(Actually, not the people who use it–just that term in general. Ugh.)
People who incessantly crinkle their candy wrappers in movie theaters! I just want to turn around, pull the darn thing out of their hands, and unwrap it for them! (No, I don’t ever do this. I just sit and stew until they finally finish.)
People who walk along staring at their phone or texting, paying no attention to where they’re going or any other people near them. Sometimes I just stop and let them run into me.
What evs, bro.
People who cede their right of way in traffic. It annoys people behind you and is dangerous.
Women at the gym who casually walk side by side chatting…on the indoor running track. It’s only two lanes wide and has clearly posted signs telling not to block runners. I give one or two kind “excuse me” laps before I simply squeeze between them, leaving ample amounts of sweat on them as I pass.
Trading for a right fielder who hit over 50 home runs when we already have a right fielder who hit over 50 home runs.
Going to a department store and being unable to find a freaking cashier stand that’s open. Put them by the doors so we can find them, morons.
Finding a show of interest that’s halfway done and checking for future showtimes, only to discover there are no future showtimes.
Newspaper delivery people that refuse to use the tube next to my mailbox, and instead just tossing it into my driveway just as 4 inches of snow are falling. Then forgetting to look for it before running the snowblower and spending a half hour trying to pull stuck newspaper from my impeller.
Just getting out of the shower and discovering you have to take a dump.
Add to this, the family with the one screaming baby. I know babies cry, for chrissakes, do you not know when its nap time or time to eat. Go home feed the kid, change him and put him down for a nap. The grocery shopping can wait. Stupid!!
When I stumble and somebody nearby says “be careful.” HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT HELP? YOU THINK I WANT TO KEEP STUMBLING?
“Oh, how about that, I was intending to stumble all the way to my destination. Thank you for pointing out my self-destructive behavior.”
People who say “We won the game” or “We played lousy last Sunday” when they aren’t actually on the team.
When someone sends you a friend request on Facebook, you accept it, then they never Like, Comment or interact with you in any way.
The older I get the more I find myself driving like an old man. I’d rather wait an extra five minutes than cross in front of someone who’s even remotely near the intersection.
What’s up with putting two o’s in the word “lose”? I’m gonna start putting three o’s in the word “loose”.
“Intact” is one word. Something is not “in tact”.
If someone is “biased”, they are NOT “bias”.
Yeah, these are all grammar related. AND, I feel better.
When a person in line behind you doesn’t think that you know how a line works and gives you instructions.
Sherbert.
mmm
Wow, I missed that earlier. ::::claps::::
People stating an opinion as a fact. I’m ashamed to admit that I’ve yelled at children for doing this.
I avoid many of the grocery store annoyances (which I mostly share) by going to the self check aisles. I’m faster than the cashiers (proven that one over and over) and I can also pack my bags as I prefer with the cold foods together and the cans properly distributed.
What I cannot fathom is that the self check stations ask if you’re bringing your own bags, then when you say “yes” and put your reusable canvas bags down the fucking things freak out and call the attendant. Why the fuck would I bring anything OTHER than a big canvas bag to the grocery store? If I wanted flimsy ass plastic or easily ripped paper ones I’d use theirs. Why can’t they just program the things to understand actual shopping bag weights? Every fucking time they make me stand there so the drone can clear the alert. Thanks, I LOVE wasting time!
Drivers who don’t know where in a curve to apply the brakes and when not to–people assume I pass these people because I want to speed like mad but it’s just because I don’t want to have to pay that much attention to the random brake dabbers. Also, stop dabbing the brakes every time something non-alarming happens 500 feet away–you’re not helping, you don’t need to stop and that dab doesn’t change your speed in the slightest and it’s just annoying.
