My Top 5 Pet Peeves

[Thumpalumpacus]

Mine:

1) Being interrupted. I promise I'm trying to be as short as possible, but sometimes a thought has to unfold.

2) Stupid people. I get it, not everyone is smart, but good lord, do you have to advertise your shortfall so obviously?

3) Crappy Mexican food. It isn't rocket science, folks. If you don't include cilantro, you've already added to the craptastic nature of your dish.

4) People getting on the freeway doing 35 mph. That entrance ramp is long for a reason; the reason is, get your ass up to speed so you don't get me killed.

5) A guitar that won't hold tune.

-Obnoxious laughter. The fake, attention seeking, rude, immature kind that starts with a noise coming from the nose. I'm thinking of a specific person.
-The slurping of soup from the spoon. Open your damn mouth wide enough for the food to enter and eat like an adult. Don't slurp it.
-Rudeness to servers. I'm not a server, but have many bartender and waitress/waiter friends. I've heard sick stories. Why do people think it's ok to be so rude to serving staff? The nerve.
-people of my race being racist. Fuck you.
-The bad version of a drink. If someone invites me over for coffee, you must understand. I NEED mah coffee. You can't make me forfeit my cup at home only to show up to boiled water and a jar of instant coffee on your table. Brew! Or... don't say it's natural horchata thinking I won't notice the difference, and then mix a powder into water. I will KNOW.

Thank you and good day.

What's that? were you saying something?!?

[vorlon13]

1) Size queens

2) men with small dicks

3) men with big dicks that only want to bottom

4) guys with small dicks that don't want to bottom, give me a hand job, or give me a BJ

5) masculine acting guys that I assume are naturally not  hairy that turn out to have been hairy but they shaved everywhere and have annoying stubble

1. Assholes that squeeze their fucking Audi into a space barely big enough for a moped, without even signaling, then get pissed because you had the audacity to honk.

2. Asshole who cut into your lane, right ahead of you, while traveling 10-15 mph slower than you, usually without looking.

3. Asshole who ride right up on your ass, flashing their lights, honking their horn, wanting you to get over even though there's only a half a car length between you and the guy in front of you on the 12 mph speedway that is I-25 every morning and, there's no fucking room to get over anyway!

4. Assholes who think turn signals are a little self congratulatory salute. "Hey, look. I just completed a turn/lane change!"

5. Putting up with 1-4 so I can keep a job I fucking despise!

I'm thinking of putting a sign in the back window that says "Yell as loud as you want. I don't speak asshole!"

Radio Shack used to sell a 12 volt scrolling marquee that you could program to say whatever you want. It's a good thing I never bought one. It probably would have gotten me killed.

3. White Nationalists/ Supremacists. I am white. These assholes do not represent me or my family. My race - the human race- is certainly in danger. From these shitheads.

There was a video circulating in social media of a white guy harassing a Muslim family in the beach.
He was shouting abuse with kids around, grabbing his junk screaming "Trump will sent you back", "America is no #1!!!!" and hysterically beating his chest like a mad chimp. I showed to all my friends & family and needless to say they were all very, very "impressed".

What surprised them even more was how calm the Muslim man was despite a stranger aggressively approaching his whole family and shouting abuse with kids around. I had to explain the whole "self-defense" thing to them and how it's not legal to beat a guy up for it. That shit definitely won't fly around here, you don't have the luxury of shouting abuse at a family like that and walking without at the very least a limp.

[The Valkyrie]

1. Anti-vaxxers who continually cite discredited "studies" and claims to back up their ignorance
2. Racism
3. Creationists (especially young earth creationists) and the lies they spread to get people to believe them
4. Kiddie fiddlers and their enablers/protectors
5. Men! (just kidding!)
5a. The whole "incel" culture and their continual blaming of women for their own failures and their sense of entitlement believing women owe them sex.

1. Next time you feel like your life is worthless, jst remember that there is a person at tthe Audi factory instlling turn signals.

2. Now hat I'm  in front of you, back off

3, 4 aand 5. I hve thought of the following things todo, while driving the 405 freewqy in rush hour traffic for 30 years.

A. Spike strip-lik device that I havve a lever for, that I can pull the lever and it drops to the ground, giving the person a flat tire(S). Didn't do that, because the thing might give a flat to the wrong perwon.

B. A marrquee like you said, but as you noted, it could get yoi killed.

C. Mak a mockup of a 50-cal machine gun, complete with a flashing muzle, in the trunk. The trunk lid lifts, and the muzzle flaxhes, plus you have one of those bass speaker gizows to kake the shooting noise sound realistc. But people would be crashing when the tailgater slamed on his brakes.

Lucky or me, I neverfollowed through on them, or I'd be prosoner Fierball (maybe extinguised).

[Mr.Obvious]

I've made the argument before and I'll make it again: Vegetarians or vegans who refuse to eat meat not because they don't like the taste but for moral reasons... are as illogical as someone who refuses to ever drive a car because it's bad for the climate.

Oh my sister is worse.
She is principly against buying a car, because she says she doesn't want to rely on it. She feels, I think, that is the environmentally ethical thing to do. And if that was where it ended; fine. But then don't call me every time you need something from Ikea or when a family-party turned out late and you don't feel like biking back to your appartement or you need to get to a flee market 4 towns over at the crack of dawn.
