Things that shouldn't piss you off, but do.
Feel free to add your own. I'll give two really quick.
1. This girl I'm friends with on facebook makes a post about how she is now pregnant. (She's 19 btw) obviously every random girl she is friends with on facebook felt the need to congratulate her on such an amazing accompolishment. That was midly annoying to sift through, but I understand it's a big deal and all...I just have a cold heart as of late lol.
Anyways about 2hrs later she makes a new post about being pregnant because the first wasn't enough. Awesome. Like 15 mins ago she makes ANOTHER post about it saying "Can't sleep, tummy hurts, hello prego life 😀😀"
It took every ounce of my energy not to type something extremely rude like, "we ****ing get it, your pregnant."
2. Me and my friend drive 30 mins to play beerpong with these chics we met randomly one night. 2 are definitely good looking....ones a chubbba wubba though. Ok lookin face but yeah....Anyways were all playing BP along with 2 other dudes that we didnt know would be there..( I guess I understand them wanting to have 2 of their guy friends there since we've never formally hungout, but whatever...) my friend randomly makes comments the whole time whenever the chubba wubba talks to me such as "that's all you" or "wheres your girl at" when she leaves the room.
Any clue why he feels the need to say things like that? He's always been considering kind of the **** blocking type amongst our ground of friends even if it's never negatively effected me. J/W if someone can get all psychological on me and tell me why he always does that.
when the shopping cart dude is politely and pleasantly waiting for me to finish putting the last of my groceries in the car so he can grab my cart too
****ing lingerers man…
I do this sometimes but only if the store is mostly empty. It seems easier to pull than to push. It takes more space since the cart is diagonally behind me vs directly in front. So if you're ever in Boulder and you see an idiot pulling the cart come say hi.
This is the gist of why it doesn't work. Half the time they end up standing beside the cart, still pulling it along like a dipshit, and then blocking the entire lane instead of just being a normal member of society and blocking half the lane.
The incredibly nice cashiers at Trader Joes.
That the Subie changes the clock about 5-8 miles inside of Colorado. Even worse, since the western counties of Kansas are in the Mountain time zone, it's off by ~30 miles, not just 5-8.
got in the toyota daylight saving sunday morning and noticed the clock was the same
automatically changed after driving a few miles
pulling the cart from the front is just a setup for my boss 180 spin goofy foot handle grab
no doubt all the lululemoms take notice
I bet my truck's clock still on MST.
People bragging about their vehicle's recent vintage by using automatic clock updating details.
I'm lucky the clock in my car is even digital. I remember when you could count on the clock being the first thing in your car to quit functioning permanently.
not fast enough..
haha
When your grandpa groans at a Price is Right contestant being called to the podium and you're also annoyed because they're yipping and bouncing around like an idiot but then he says, "why are there so many black people on this show" and you realize you weren't actually bonding.
someone call a snarchaeologist

Truck's too old to have USB ports, does that help?
Maybe my first deleted post. Kinda disappointed, don't think I earned it.

I'm very aware of that, which is why I don't do it if the store is busy.
On a related note, but doesn't really belong in this thread, are the idiots who leave their cart in the middle of the aisle to go look for something so no one can pass. I will move someone's cart out of the way and I hope they see me do it. If they apologize maybe that will help a behavior change, if they give me a mean look for touching their cart, they're just an *******.
I'm guessing the latter are the same people who don't return their cart in the parking lot.
I've been there twice.
First guy overly nice, didn't really piss me off that much. 2nd time the cashier was only sort of nice, but very sufficiently nice for a cashier, and since the first guy set a bar so high for Trader Joe's cashiers I was a bit pissed off.
People that enter into conversations with great fervor and single mindedness... like the are performing a self satisfying Monolog or as if they are executing a filibuster.
A conversation doesn't exist if one of the parties refuses to listen.

OK, I have an "am I a terrible person" question.
People use the cart return thing as the litmus test for someone being an *******. My thing is that if I'm anywhere near a cart corral I'll generally bring it over, but if I'm not, especially if there's already a cart or two abandoned next to my spot, I'll just take my cart and stick it inside the other(s) since eventually someone's gonna have to fetch the ones that are there in any case. Or whoever takes my parking spot is probably gonna just grab the cart I left anyway.
So do I suck? Note that I grew up in the era of there being no cart corrals in grocery store lots, and like 98% of people left their cart right where they parked. My first job included having to round up the carts, on weekend days you just stayed outside and did it continuously all day. Maybe this is coloring my opinion.
Leaving the cart loose is never a good option. Wind gusts up, it rolls away and dents/scratches somebody's car.
You're never that far from a corral, or bringing it back to the front of the store. Assuming there's no physical limitation, of course.
Gman,
Think of it more like a societal contract. Everyone has it, but it is not enforced.
Then ask yourself if you want to follow this societal contract for the benefit of all, with no extra added benefit to yourself, or do you want to just act solely for your own self interest?
This answers a persons question on whether they suck or not for them. Also, people can change their viewpoint on this after gathering more life experience. I did.
