People who cannot count the number of items they have for the Speedy Checkout lane. Pisses me off when the lane says 15 items or less, I have two items and the person in front of me has at least 25 items. I really wish the scanners would have an alarm when 16 items are scanned that would announce throughout the store "This idiot in the fast checkout lane cannot count, what part of 15 items or less do you not understand"!

1. Collecting for a "cause" at the front door. I give a pass to Girl Scout cookies, everyone else...I gave at the office.

2. People who leave their buggy in the parking lot (unless they have a space for them). C'mon, it isn't that far and only takes a second.

3. Unmarked produce items, I don't want to get scammed into buying a $4 tomato.

4. Water sprayers in the produce, WTF??? If you'd get fresh stuff in the 1st place you wouldn't be sweating it.

5. Not having something I want.

6. Stores that sell Cream of anything soup. Why help the gastronomically impaired, do you really want to shop with low-lifes like that?

I was in front of a woman in the express lane (12 items or less). I had 12 items (counted before I got in line).

The woman looked at me and said, "You're in the wrong line."
Me: "How so?"
Her: "This is for 12 items or less."
Me: "Oh...well, let's count them together. One..two...three..."
Me: "Looks like I have 12 items. Must be the right line."
She screwed her face up but didn't apologize.
