I’m in a car heading south so I’m putting this in the queue on Thursday to post Friday morning. I thought I’d take a break from atheism to post on things that drive me batty.
Allergies. Nothing is working for them this year. I can’t remember a year where they’ve caused me insomnia like they are now.
People who get to the front of line and then dither about what they want to eat. Seriously… you just stood in line for 10 minutes, had menus available to you, and you can’t figure out what you want?!?!?!?!? Mind moving aside and letting the rest of us get on with our lives while you dither?
People who stick their carts in the center of the aisle. You’d think this would be self-explanatory but I encounter it every freaking time I go to the grocery store or Target. It takes all my self-control not to have an icy tone when I say “excuse me” and much of the time, I don’t succeed.
Insurance companies. This bumper sticker applies.
People who fail to control their dogs. I’m not a dog person for a reason — I’ve dealt with too many stupid people who think that their dog charging me and jumping on me is funny. I wonder how funny it will be when I call the city and have their dog impounded.
People who park in the library parking lot on flea market days. The sign says “library parking only” in two languages (this is California after all) and I’m pretty sure you can read at least one of them. I’m sorry that you’re too lazy to find parking on the street but you’re really screwing things up for those of us that want to use the library and not have to lug our heavy tote bags of books 4 blocks.
People who smoke right outside public buildings. I think I’ve explained this before: smokers have no rights where my air supply is concerned. They need to be at least 15 feet from the entrance to a building and you had better darn well believe that I’m going to make sure that the distance is enforced as strictly as possible. Their filthy habit is not worth an asthma attack on my part.
(For more of this, head to Conversion Diary.)
Haha! I am so the type of person to never know what I want, even when I’ve been reading the menu and trying to decide forever! My husband has finally given up on waiting until I am ready to order, he orders when he’s ready and then I am forced to pick something real quick.
Allergies drive me crazy too!
Other stuff that drives me nuts? How about babies who won’t come out! Well, I guess I do have 10 days left till my “due date”, but seriously, I’m ready to be done with this!
I’ve been feeling ‘peevish’ lately, too 🙂
smoking…our neighbors smoke in their backyard (we have townhouses)- so many times when we are trying to bbq, we have to deal with that- no asthma issues, here, but still- if you don’t smoke, there is really no smell more disgusting
