re: What are some things people do that make you irrationally mad?

People who try to get my attention or talk to me when I’m wearing headphones. Airports, grocery stores, the gym etc. It’s never for anything concerning or serious. Always something stupid that serves their interest.

What the hell are some people doing where they are at the machine for 5 minutes plus?

Not sure. Even if you had multiple checks it will process them all pretty quickly

Asshats who have never heard of the proper technique to zipper merge.

How fricking hard is that to figure out. We'd move so much faster if the people at the front weren't slowing down to let these asshats in.

I gave a guy at work that does this. So now every time he blares out his conversation to the rest of the office I start up a loud conversation with people on the other side of the office.

When parents let their shite kids scream and run around a restaurant. I understand they are used to completely tuning them out, but it’s very rude to literally everyone else.

Additionally, parents that have an iPad for their kid at a restaurant table, but let them have the volume all the way up. Get your kid some earphones so everyone else doesn’t have to hear it.

Yeah. I try to sit in the bar area of a restaurant to avoid kids if possible.

You can tell a lot about parents when you see how their kids behave at a restaurant

People driving the speed limit on the interstate

I think all my annoyances stem from this. They’re usually all about people being unaware, or simply not caring that they are being a nuisance

Last week in the hotel van leaving for the airport at 6:00 am, there’s a group of 4 guys getting into another van parked on the side of the one we’re in. One of the guys, a white retard in his late 20’s standing about 4 feet in front of our van looking at his phone. He’s literally facing our van, but so interested in his phone that he doesn’t even realize that he’s blocking us from leaving.

After about 20 seconds of this, I tell the driver, “Blow the horn, or I’m gonna get out and drag him by his hair.”

The driver says, “Nah man, I got this.” He puts the van back in neutral and revs the engine, finally snapping the retard out of his oblivious stupor and he steps out of the way. No “I’m sorry for blocking you” wave or nothing, just briefly looks up and steps out of the way.

I swear, I wanted to get out and punch him in the throat.

People at fast food restaurants waiting for their order, that grab every order thinking it's their's despite the order number being called.

Or the opposite.

At Chicago O’Hare the other day and ordered food from McDonalds in the airport. There’s about 10 people standing back from the counter waiting on their orders. Shortly after I ordered, a worker puts an order on the counter and calls out the order number. “Order 235! Order 235!” I look around at the people waiting, no one moves. The guy says the order number twice more, no takers.

Literally about 5 minutes later, some dipshit white guy behind me that had been on his phone asks the guy, “Do you have order 235?”

I turn to him and say, “Yeah, he called it out several times about 5 minutes ago. Enjoy your cold food.”

Dumbass gives me a look like I’m the bad guy.

Idiots who ride their bicycles in traffic lanes when there are designated bike lanes in the street. I see this all the time in the Mid-City area of N.O.

Don't see this as much anymore and it's mostly old women who still do this:

Write a check for grocery purchases and wait until the cashier has totaled the bill BEFORE even removing their checkbook from their purse to begin writing the check-----often needing to borrow a pen to do so.

Also, with a popular bar 1/2 block from my house-------people, mostly women, who insist on sitting at tables outside the bar at 2 a.m. and carry on conversations like it's 2 in the afternoon-----shrieking and laughing at volumes that carry a block away.

People who you pass while you're on cruise control and maintain the speed who pass you up a mile later, then you pass them up because they slow down, then they speed up again and you keep playing that game.

This drives me insane.

People who don’t use their cruise control on the interstate and their speed varies from 65 to 85.

They pass you then slow down making you pass them and then do it again.

I usually block them from passing me after the 3rd time.
