Things that drive you nuts-let's hear

[Lightwin 3]

Mine is people that are always LATE for everything.

To me that means that MY time means NOTHING to them. Time is one element that you cannot replace.

Beautiful sunny days during the "9-5", but rain and thunderstorms when I actually CAN take the boat out.... :frusty:

people referring to core plugs as "freeze plugs"

People who ask me about what drives me nuts ... not really, but the late thing trips my trigger ... and veiled hints and references ... talk to me straight and don't make me guess ...

Fishrdan's theory of driving relativity:
- You're stuck behind a slow vehicle and in a passing zone, but can't pass due to opposing traffic
- You're STILL stuck behind the slow vehicle and there is no opposing traffic, but can't pass due to a no passing zone
- You're STILL stuck behind the slow vehicle and in a passing zone, but can't pass due to opposing traffic
- You're STILL stuck behind the slow vehicle and there is no opposing traffic, but can't pass due to a no passing zone
- Etc.
- Etc.

People that expect their boat engine to run great on the water, just because it did so in the driveway.

Sort of like thinking you could bench press 300 lbs just because you could bench press 20 lbs so easily

A good friend of mine was always late and never concerned what other people were put out by his actions so one time we told him we were going out at 9 am but we all made plans for 10 am so when he showed up late at 10 he was on time .When we told him what we did he was actually put out!!!My friends know now that if their late I wont be there I will have left on time.

As a Sales guy, I spend a lot of time on the road. I could write a book about the asinine things people do on the road.

My biggest pet peeve are the people who travel in the passing lane (left hand lane) of the highway that refuse to move over to allow people to pass.

A traffic violation in a number of States.

The demographics of likely offenders is pretty telling but that’s a different story.

 

[poconojoe]

People that cut you off or do some other stupid, dangerous or selfish thing. You beep your horn and they give YOU the finger! I'd like to ring their neck!

Texting drivers. Saw a bad one a couple years ago, Saw it coming and nothing I could do. Teenager t-bones a person going through a green light-, She ran the red.

I did stop and tell the LEO exactly what she (teenager) was doing and how I tried to warn her of the red light upcoming.. LEO said he was "throwing the book" at her.

Testified in court about six months later. They let her go.

Sand gnats !!!
Another thing that grinds my gears are the storm news reporters that inform people that may be outside checking out a storm that they should not be out sight seeing . While they are in just as much danger doing there reporting !

 

[Bayou Dave]

People that buy a boat and then ask what year, make, etc it is.

For me it is the folks who don't know how a stop sign works. People around here stop at the fog line and it makes it difficult to turn left onto the road they are turning out of. It's gotten so bad that if I have me hydraulic trailer empty one of these days I will pull it right over the hood of their little Toyota prius. Well, I like to think I will.

My wife saying she's ready to go and I sit in the car waiting for 10 more minutes. One of these days I need to go in and see what shes doing.

The other thing is the Old Lady in the check out line that uses 3 different cards and some cash, then remembers her Air Miles card.

You're never going to change that so don't even try. :lol:

I have the same breakfast every morning a meat stick, a cheddar cheese stick, and a motzorella stick. Why when I open the bag of the cheddar sticks they are all individually packed, while the motzorella sticks are all packaged with all the sticks bound together.
