Nothing makes me irrationally angry..my anger is genuine and well groomed. Stupid people, sound of flip flops, People who cannot speak correctly, and last but not least, lazy people who think the Gov owes them a handout... other than that I never get angry..I just get even..LOL0

Guilty. I know the weather sucks, but I hate it. I live here by default, and I'm reminded yearly how much I hate the cold (Florida girl moved to the Chicago area via ex-husband. Ew.). And I can't move because I share children with the ex - and they're only 11. So I must endure the weather here for at least 7 more years.
Actually, now that you mention it, icy cold wind whipping through me makes me instantly irrationally angry. Also, high winds plus long hair = fail.
Ooo! Thought of another: terrible packaging on things...you know the kind. You can't open it without a machete on hand. Why? Why is it necessary to use indestructible packaging to hold my can opener inside it? Do I have to earn the right to use the can opener? Gah!
THIS. The freaking packaging. I'm arthritic. I shouldn't have to stab and pry and wrench to get something like a pair of ear buds.0 -
ppl being rude to cashiers/tellers/etc0

oh and OMG BAD TIPPERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please don't go out if you cannot afford at least 15% ( obviously I used to be a waitress) lol0

- Getting bad service because you don't look you should be in the restaurant. (Our combined income is well over $100,000)
- People who come in WAY after you and get seated ahead of you.
- Waiter/waitress overlooking your table each time they pass until you flag them down.
- Not getting offered refills on drinks.
- Being ignored while my husband is fawned over. Both male and females do this.
- Not being offered dessert.
- Wilted lettuce in a dinner salad.
- Not remembering which of the 3 of us ordered what when you're the one that took the orders.
I get overly angry about poor restaurant experiences.1 -

Thank God I'm not alone in this one! My husband thinks I'm psycho, but I've actually banned him from eating yogurt in my presence. The stirring....and then the repeated spoon scraping noises when it's nearly gone. On one particularly PMS-y day, I actually said to him, "Stop scraping the f'ing yogurt cup, fatty! It's OK to leave a little behind."

Dog Owners
a. Dog walks
i. If a dog is walking ahead of you and not alongside or behind you, you are not walking the dog! And those flex-leashes, and those that go around the dog’s trunk, rather than the neck - ugh!
ii. Walking the dog while texting/using phone. The walk (and mastering it) is the most important and powerful thing in a dog’s life. One should walk the dog with the dog's benefit in mind
b. Talking to a dog in a “baby/cooing” voice
c. When people meet a dog and think it okay to pet the dog right away (while using the “baby” voice) – this is not how dogs meet in the wild (pack world). They smell each other and etc. Why not be patient? How about not look, touch, or "talk" to the dog until he/she has smelled you/he or she initiates the meeting? It takes quite a bit of patience, but it works. And you will once in a while hear a complaint that, “I just bent down to say hello to the dog, and suddenly he/she bit me,” oh?...but did you see/understand the dog’s body language before you did that, or did you just see the end result?
d. Double standards – when someone declares how their dog is their baby, yet do not restrain the dog, say, while driving (would you let your own child ride unrestricted in the vehicle?), or jumping on strangers on the way or visitors at home, letting a dog (especially small breeds - one may think it cute that a Chihuahua barks at anyone wanting to socialize with his/her owner while the dog is seated on the owner's lap) get away with murder
e. Blaming dogs (including not understanding powerful breeds – which lead to most being destroyed or being returned to shelters – though that there are red zone cases that are beyond salvage) for their behaviour
i. The dog does not understand you shouting at it...he/she feels does not feel sorry and he/she is not depressed about this and that…dogs pick up on energy. If you are a nervous person for example, the dog will not trust you. The dog may find a need to step in and “protect” its pack as its leader, hence why the dog would go after other dogs while on a walk, for example. Change you and the dog will change.
ii. At the dog park, you see a fight, then go on to blame dog B, yet it is your dog that entered the park with his tail held really high, did you notice that the whites of his eyes were more prominent? Did you see how your dog approached dog B (head-on as opposed from the side; was the head held high or low)? How was your frame of mind right before you left for the park, or before disembarking from the car? Did you see that when you approached that dog in a high-pitched, excited mind that the dog started jumping all over you? That may not be because he likes you…..
f. Using human psychology rather than dog/animal psychology on dogs
i. Can you tell an aggressive dog from a nervous, excited, timid, or an obsessive one? Does your dog trust you? Are you a pack leader (not by hurting, but by being calm and assertive)
ii. Do you know (why) most (with the exception of a few) dogs in the rural areas/”free range” have less “psychological” problems, less medication etc?
iii. Do you understand the different barks/growls?
iv. “I will not neuter/spay my dog because I will change his personality/he or she will be so depressed”…uhm…what? Lol
v. Do you fulfill the dog’s needs and desires (as an animal) first before yours (e.g., religiously walking, general wellness, food, shelter, giving the dog something to do etc) – dressing up a dog may be something you like, but that is not fulfilling the dog’s needs
vi. Do you follow through with your commands in a calm way? Do you have set boundaries and limitations for your dog? Sometimes you find powerful people (in powerful positions) where they assert authority at work every day, but often ran down by their dogs at home lol
vii. Have you watched your dog in a pack or in the pack? You may learn a lot about your dog from the other dogs (sans humans). They are the best teachers
viii. Do you know why your dog barks all day or wees while you are away at work? Do you take him on a rigorous walk beforehand? Do you prep him to leave or do you coo, “I am going to work now…be a good boy now…you will be ok…it is ok…?”
g. Not picking after one’s dog
h. Thank you for saving lives of shelter dogs when you adopt one, but please choose the right dog for you. Just putting your fingers through the cage so he can smell, or thinking a dog is cute does not do.
How is the dog’s energy/personality matched to yours or your household’s? How do you meet the dog for the first time at the shelter? How do you introduce the dog to your home the first time? Do you know how to lay the foundation down for a well-balanced dog? How do you socialize your dog with others?
>>>Stepping off irrational soap box
Just being irrational here
Another one of mine:
People that come into the movie theater late. Worse still, those that will wait till all is quiet and the movie has begun, and begin to rustle plastic wrappers or whatever they are eating that is packaged. How distracting!!
And those that will keep kicking the back of your seat (also on the airplane)...ugh!

I HATE it when people kick my seat in the theater. It's so incredibly rude. I also hate it when people put their feel on the back of mine and sort of rock it back and forth. I don't like it when really tall people sit right in front of me so I can't see anything but the back of their big fat heads. Sit in the back, stretch.
I'm very ill tempered today, so a lot of things are pissing me off. I probably shouldn't be in here, or anywhere for that matter, but home, in my bed secluded away from the rest of humanity.

YES!!! I'm embarrassed and ashamed when I have those days. I don't want to be KNOWN for being that type of person. I still get offended when people call me one. I don't want to be a pushover either though. It's a delicate balance.
