What bugs you?

What bugs you?
Besides the usual things like, people who are cruel to animals and humans. People who are rude, thieves, liars, cheaters and those who don't like your style of vehicle, music, food, etc. Give a list of things that bug you.
I'll get it started with a few of mine:
1. People that plug up one nostril and blow buggers everywhere instead of using a tissue. Not only is it gross and unsanitary, but also because their accomplishing the mission unscathed makes me jealous. If I were to try it, the missile would surely land on my cheek.
2. People that repeat your question when you ask them something.
3. People that say the word 'basically' all the time.
4. When the sleeves that I pushed up slowly fall back down while I'm working on a messy task that would require getting the sleeve dirty in order to push it back up again.
5. Careless drivers. I don't care if people want to drive while drunk, stoned, texting, talking on the phone, or any other idiotic thing that causes accidents, as long they choose to drive on a road that no one else is on while they are doing these things.
6. When the phone rings as soon as you get on the toilet, and you forgot to bring the phone with you.
7. People that write ect. instead of etc.

I have more than a few, but I'll keep this short.
1. Reality TV -- my life is real , I want to watch actors mouthing lines written for them by others in fictitous situations. I don't want to hear one more moron explaining their 'strategy'.
2. Those moronic moving signs -- the ones that only display part of the message. Generally, you never see the whole thing because you've driven past it.
3. That TV show where they do paternity tests -- usually after the kids are old enough to understand. One woman tested 10 men -- none was a match!
4. Windoze offering to 'clean up my unused icons' -- I've turned the stuff off, but it still asks periodically
5. Our highway dep't. They changed the signs from 'Slow moving traffic keep right' to '.....move right'. When do I stop moving to the right?
6. Trying to get through to an actual 'help person' on the phone. Worse yet, trying to get to one that can deal with anything the least bit unusual.
7. Media commentaters that use the line ' and we all know blah blah blah' to support their arguement. Generally they're just giving their opinion, but they present it as a universal truth.
There are more, but even a crotchety old guy has to shut up sometime

1. Rude drivers. I just spent a total of 35 hours in a car on a road trip with my wife and was subjected to some of the most unbelievable bulls**t I have ever experienced.
2. Rude audience members. We drove a total of about 1250 round trip miles to see our favorite band in Minneapolis then again in Chicago. The S.O.B. sitting behind me in Chicago would NOT shut up.
3. Having the telephone ring within minutes of getting home from work, looking forward to some peace and quiet.
4. People that think only of themselves.
That is enough for now.

• When someone tries to shove something down my throat, that I really don't want.
I'll buy what I want to buy, when I want to buy it, thank you very much.
• When some guy insults my youngest son and curses/cusses him while on a Boy Scout camping trip, and calls him a liar. And this guy's not even a Scout 'leader'!! He is another Scout's Dad.
Oh. . . and my son wasn't telling a lie, either!!
(This happened over the weekend. When I heard about it, I wanted to drive over to the guy's house and rip his head off and defecate down his neck!)
The Boy Scouts of America / National Capital Region has been notified, btw!!
• Drunk drivers. 'Nuff said.
• Career politicians. (We won't go there!)
• Lousy/bad coffee. I like my coffee hot and I like it fresh.
That about covers it, for a Monday morning!

Wow! This is my kind of thread.
1. People who think their kids are the next best olympic bound athlete.
2. Poor manners
3. Parents who don't parent
4. The price of goods and services
5. Filth and clutter
6. The way many food service workers or other service related workers are treated.
7. The sense of entitlement that exists. I'll stop here lest I become offensive.
8. Reps and infractions on FTE. Yes, we've beat that one to death and I'm still not happy.
That's all for now, great thread.
