Small things people do that are bigly bad

I never saw this till recently but sure do now.....entering an intersection when there is not room to clear, thus making it impossible for cars going the other way to move when the light changes.

Is this stupidity or is this a "**** You!" lack of consideration?

IDK, but I do know that we used to be better.

Now we are in red flag territory. I am a pedestrian.....with a cane.

ahem...

Cars inching through the intersection before it is clear of pedestrians. Had a young man the other day learned there is more than one use for a cane when "I slipped..."

You would not think an engine cover could cost that much. I loved the look on the ass-hole's face when he learned he was in the wrong...

People who smile, while they wiggle a gun around in front of someone's face, before pulling the trigger.

Gum chewing is the #1 repulsive thing people can do in my presence. Women putting the ends of their hair in their mouths runs a close second.
 
People that put toilet paper on the roller backwards.

People that post all that "cut and paste" bullcrap on FaceBook.

People that live in alt-world.

Rolling stops.
 
People sitting and texting in their vehicles after the light changed. People texting or talking at all when driving. GRRR

Pisses me off to no end when they leave the cart in the parking space two freaking slots from one of the "car corral" things.

Last week I watched as an old lady who was parked right next to the "corral" and who put her items in her trunk left the cart alongside her space. And she was able-bodied too. Talk about lazy. I tried to give her "the face," but I'm not very good at this. Yet.

And another thing--kids borrowing grandma's car with the disabled tag taking a disabled parking spot.

....especially while they are chewing gum?
;)
 
I try not to judge, but if you leave your shopping cart in the middle of the parking lot, I will judge the f**k out of you.
 
Cashiers and/or servers who whine to me... or especially in front of me to their co-workers... that they'd rather be someplace else.

I'm sorry my patronage of the place that provides you with a paycheck has inconvenienced you. Should I not do that anymore?
 
Aside from violence or fraud?

Being a bad neighbor, texting and driving, line cutting (not talking about zipper merge), being bad at your job, rudeness and disloyalty all GRIND MY GEARS.

Worse are the people who block the entire aisle and refuse to move if someone comes by. I just want to shove these self-involved idiots into a meat grinder.

People stopped in the middle of the road talking to each other. People that decide to stop in the middle of the road and talk deserve to be run over by a tank.

Just the other day, I was coming home and two people in two cars going opposite directions decided to stop on the street, roll down their windows and have a conversation, blocking the whole road. What the hell is wrong with these people?

It's the complete and utter lack of awareness that gets me, but I have to admit that even then you sometimes catch the eye of one of the "doorway blocks" and they still don't recognise that they have become an obstacle in the worst possible place.

Maybe they do... and just don't care...
 
Dead fish handshakes.

Walking in the exact middle of a sidewalk, very slowly, while paying no attention to surroundings and generally swinging their arms so that they take up most of the thing.

Inattentive drivers (wait, no, that's actually a legitimately big thing).

Elevator farters

Leg-spreaders on the subway. I just shove right back if they're pushing on my legs but....damn, it's annoying.

Oh, right, and those people who pull up to a red light and stop. Then, about every 3 seconds, they roll forward three inches. They end up rolling forward about six feet. The light changes to green and......they just ****ing sit there. What are you doing, people?

Oh right, and the assholes who try to skip the line from a highway exit and merge at the last second. When I'm in line, I'll aggressively position myself so they cannot cut in. I know it's only a two second difference as to when I get to my destination, but seriously.....**** you. Maybe 3% of those people actually didn't realize it was their exit until the last second. The rest - usually in a BMW - are ****s.

In a situation like that (and in many of these), it's not the consequence of the action that counts. It's the sheer pettiness of the ****ishness.

Or cough on the subway/pick their nose, then grab onto the pole. Without even trying to wipe.




Thanks...
 
Used diapers in store parking lots.

General rudeness. There is a lot more of that these days.

Airplane seat grabbers. People behind you who grab your seat when they sit down or stand up.

People who go to the doctor's office in their bathrobe.

People on Facebook who can't wait to tell everyone about Jesus. Sadly I have a few cousins and friends who do that. I quit Facebook because of it.

Restaurant screamers. People who sit across from each other and talk so loud everyone can hear them.

Drivers who use their cell phones while driving.

Only saw it once. She had made it a good 100 feet from the lot, which was on the other side of the road. I figured there had to be a safety kill switch of some kind in those things but that one failed.

Believe it's magnetic. You can probably force the thing despite the locked wheels.
