people with really really really long signatures. The ones where, even after ad-blocking the images, the sig is twice as long as the post And don't suggest turning sigs off in the options as that would deny me access to DaRizzle's.
I have many pet peeves. One of my biggest, to add to DaRizzle's list, is with the large number of posters on the Blazer forum who don't know the difference between "then" and "than". "Then" should be used for time/sequence situations or "if ... then" statements of logic. "Than" should be used in comparisons.
People who pull out right in front of me when there's no one else on the road. I mean, what's the point, they can't a second or two for me to go by? On a similar line, people who turn when I am trying to cross the street and have the walk sign. You wouldn't believe how many times I have almost been hit because some asshole just couldn't wait a few seconds to turn. It's not a pet peeve but I have never understood why people feel the need to a) go 10, 15, or even 20 MPH over the speed limit on city streets and b) dart though traffic, and thus endangering his life and the lives of people in the cars around him. They are not going to get there much faster then someone going to speed limit because of the red lights they're bound to run into, it's really just moronic.
This one STILL pisses me off, and still happens all of the time. Puttering about, then the 'slower traffic keep right' thing appears, and suddenly Mr. Slowpoke thinks he's Jimmy Johnson, and you have to go 80 to pass them, if you can even get around the douchebag as he's pressing the pedal to the floor.
Guys who pee in public toilets, without lifiting the lid, when there was a vacant urinal that could be used. And non hand washers. Just gross.
Yeah, it’s an old thread, but I almost need to change the radio station every time I hear an ad for Leif’s “the finest in collision repair”. They run on almost every station I listen to and at almost every break and sometimes twice. I don’t know what it is about it, but I can’t stand it. My wife knows, but I thought I’d let you jokers know about something that no one will care about. /end rant
Drivers who don't know how to merge, which should actually take place where the lane ends......and the drivers who don't know simple permissions they have, such as being able to turn onto a one-way while they have a red light, and that includes the intersection where Burnside and Sandy meet. Anyone that types "should of." It's SHOULD'VE, short for should have.
I hate the radio commercials where they repeat the same phone three or four times in a row. If someone can't remember the stupid 1-800-DUI-HELP phone number after the first two times, they deserve to be in jail.
I know exactly what you mean. And then they slow down once your relegated to puttering along behind them for miles and miles.
It's like I have a twin. I especially hate it when I'm trying to pull out into traffic and someone in cross traffic turns right into the street I'm on without a signal not giving me a chance to pull into traffic. By the time they turn there's another car coming along that will block my way.
People who ask you a question with only one purpose...they're not interested in your answer...what they want is to argue with someone
