Irrational Fear/Hate

2) We're coming up to a bottle neck on a multilane road and instead of getting over and plodding through it, Very Special people have to fly up to where the lane shuts down and weasel their way in. I hate the person who can't just take their place in line and I hate the person that lets them in.
3) People who can't put their registration sticker on their license plate correctly. People, this is not a game of blackout bingo. If I was a cop I'd shoot their tires right out from under them.
4) CAVE (Citizens Against Virtually Everything) and whiners. There are the people who show up at city council, etc., and complain about everything, but never lift a finger to help.
6) People who park like jack***es. They squeeze in somewhere that isn't a parking space, mucking up traffic flow. People, there's a spot 30 feet away. Park in it.
5) Liars.

Yah, I use my horn. A LOT.

+ 10,000,000 !

Turn signals. Please use them....located on your FRICKING STEERING COLUMN.

--- floating back and forth through lanes sans signaling? dooooshbag
-----switching lanes on interstate while driving 70-80 mph......cutting you off....w/out signaling? doooshbag
---slowing down abrupting in front on me..then turning into drive, w/out signaling? doooshbag
----facing doosh at a four-way stop sign..the driver turns into you w/out signaling? doooshbag

Headlites: for you to be SEEN....not 'to see' with under these conditions:

---- Dusk? turn on your headlites....dumba#s
----morning? if it's still dark...turn on your headlites
----heavy fog? (my favorite) I can't believe the a-holes who don't have their headlites on. WE CAN'T SEE YOU...dumba#s
---heavy rains/snowstorm. If you drive a silver, grey, of white car--WE CAN'T SEE YOU dumba#s

You're assuming people are smart. As a species, we generally are not. Far too many people only think of and for themselves and simply either do not care about anyone else or have concern/awareness that their actions affect those around them. But that doesn't mean it doesn't p!ss off the rest of us!

2. People at sporting events that are beyond irrational. You know the types, calling for Tiller when he is in the game, etc. Or the types that grumble on a penalty against us that clearly was a penalty (o lineman standing up and getting the false start, etc)

Wow, I can't agree more with your #2. I can't stand ISU fans that gripe, whine, yell, boo and generally crab about/at ISU coaches and players. If you are this freaking miserable why do you come to the game? Since you're so smart, why aren't you the coach or on the field/court? I was getting really close to crawling up the butt of the guy beside me at the Kansas game last week when he left at halftime. Lucky for him.

ha ha... it is common sense and I am amazed the danger some dumbas#es put us in. I thought I was overreacting until I saw a segment from Diane Sawyer on ABC regarding the fatalities caused by dumba#ses who won't signal....the stats were astounding

I have walked the Golden Gate Bridge many times and love it, but I also understand why some people would never want to do it.

When I was six years old or so, I saw an episode of Space:1999 called "Dragon's Domain" that scared the ever-lovin' snot out of me. Obviously my dad didn't know what this ep had in it at the time or he probably wouldn't have let me see it (at least I would hope not). It gave me nightmares forever after watching it. I know of several people my age who were freaked out by it as small children as well. The visual made enough of an impression, but it was the sound of the creature that really stuck in my head. Definitely NOT the type of thing a little kid should watch when they're still trying to figure out that what isn't real can't actually hurt you. This is just a short idea from youtube of what it was:

Holy ****

Was reminded of this hate just yesterday when it happened.

If you're turning left at an intersection with a light, and it's a green yield, have some intestinal fortitude and get your butt safely in the middle of the intersection to prepare to turn left. Your pansiness only allows you to get through and no one else. Heck, I've sat through a whole light cycle with no one getting through because you didn't get out into the intersection.

I have yelled assume the intersection many times at cars doing this. Then I was talking to people in iowa and they have no idea what this is.
