Unhappy What annoys the heck out of you?

Here's your chance to vent away guys-- what annoys you the most?

Mine- people who don't use their turn signal when changing lanes..

Sorry Siduri...I'm rather guilty of that one...at least when the lanes are pretty open...if I'm trying to cut in I use it

I'm annoyed when people weave in and out of traffic or when they pull into a lane that is going to end shortly just so they can pass an extra 2 or 3 cars sitting traffic.

My undergraduate alma mater's most recent fund-raising campaign. They have literally called a dozen times in 2 months.

When waiting to pull out of a street and the approaching car (which you are waiting for to pass by supposedly) turns into the street you are coming out of, without signalling!!!

Drivers in the left lane, running 1/3rd of a mile per hour faster than the vehicle in the right lane, while your sitting behind them in a stream of 20 vehicles.

DISPITE the 'Drive Right'......sign.

Sometimes....

I sent $20 a couple of times to a Native Am. charity about 5 years ago and I get 2 or 3 calls a month from various Native Am charities asking for more -- not to mention several mailings a month. The value of my original contribution has surely been more than eaten up by mailing costs by now.

Wow, my list will be long seeing that I work retail!!! Here they are in no certain order: organized religion, stupidity, people who can't figure out how to merge, people with their windsheild wipers on high when they don't need to be, not being able to get a certain song out of my head, indecisive people, incosiderate people, most strippers, getting raped at the pump, people who stand at stop lights with will work for food signs but can afford the ciggy they are smoking, people who refuse to control their children in a public setting(no, they aren't cute!!!) rap "music", Dr. Phil + Oprah, our government, president Bush, commercial flight, getting your appitizer after your entree, waiting to be seated at a restaurant any longer than a half hour. I'm sure I'll add more later!!!

People who don't realize that if they aren't part of the solution they're part of the problem.

Useless braking on the highway. When I see brake lights in this situation, one would think stop. But not around here. People tap breakes at 75 mph for no reason. For that matter, I don't like when people drive with both feet. Nothing like brake lights while accelerating from a light.
