sorry 1 more -

#22 - My mother who likes to leave me phone messages saying "when you hvae a minute, please call me back, i have a question" instead of leaving the question as the message so that when I call back I have an answer or leave the answer on her machine if she's not home, instead we play phone tag until I drag the question out of her. BTW - the question is usually computer help related and by the time we actually speak, she has either forgotten the problem or is incapable of describing what happened, OR, my all time favorite, she received an email from someone she didn't know and wants to know if she should open it or just delete it.

People who call my house and then my cell phone looking for me, but decide not to leave a message, especially when they call at night when we're putting the kids to bed and the darn phones just don't stop ringing (yo, bor-in-law, I'm talking to you!). :thumbup:

People who go to a fast food joint like McDonalds and stand there staring at the menu over their head trying to decide what they want when the damn menu hasn't changed significantly in about 50 years. (Not to mention that they had about 10 minutes to decide while they were waiting for the people in front of them to stop staring at the menu :) it's a viscious cycle)

So they have the unmitigated gall to litter the rest of the world with the refuse of their own nasty habit that is apparently so vile that they can't tollerate the smell of it in their own vehicles. This behavor is indicitive of someone who has no regard for anything but themselves. I take it back. If they cared about themselves they would be nonsmokers.

WOW! I couldn't agree more with you. Aside from how disgusting the act of smoking is, the loitering of a lit butt out a car window has contributed to numerous grass/forest fires....some of which destroyed million dollar homes in B.C.

- Too SLOW in the FAST lane!
- Too SLOW in the SLOW lane!
- Pull out in front of you Too SLOW!
- People without the ability to speak on a cell phone and drive (some of us have this ability and some don't....not gonna say who don't)
- More than 10 items in the EXPRESS check out isle (they think they're always the exception to this rule)

People who are carrying on in the middle lane at slow speed, then for no apparent reason decide to cut me off by coming into the fast lane while I'm going 20mph faster than them, and then continue their original speed.

LMFAO!! Im so glad this is here...Im sitting here pissing my pants, and realized, I agree with almost everything that was said...And also, have committed some of the said offenses..Oops! But keep 'em coming anyway!! Gresch, ever thought about looking into an anger management class?...:Rofl:

I would much prefer that people smartened up, but I think the anger management class is more realistic :)

It will pass, I haven't had a cigarette in 2 weeks, so my brain is just having trouble adjusting....

talking on the cell in the highspeed lane going 60mph~!

When people dont' know the difference between: there, their and they're. :dunno:
