Stop signs won't turn green.
I've had to sit behind people who were unaware that they were at a STOP sign, not a traffic light, and just sit there until I honk the horn.
LOL In the town where I grew up, there was one intersection where the stop sign was hung from a wire overhead -- just like traffic lights normally are. I didn't drive down that street often, but almost every time I did, I sat there waiting for that stop sign to turn green! :laugh:0 -
that you're supposed to merge onto a highway matching the speed of traffic.
Everyone else in Colorado believes you're supposed to go 10-20 mph slower. :explode:
What's your secret knowledge??? :smokin:
My friend and I are both recent transplants to Colorado and were talking about this the other day. We decided that people around here just drive funny.
And I swear I'm one of the only people that knows how to use their turn signal on a regular basis and BEFORE you change lanes.0 -
That if you have toddlers, you should not have them out late at night and then yell at them in the store for being cranky. Get a babysitter or stay home and put them to bed yourself. Little ones need their sleep.0

when you take off your shoes at a party, you should always pair them up in a place you'll remember...
yeah, right!!!! like no one's gonna mess up the line up!!!0 -
that just because you put your turn signal on it doesn't mean you can change lanes without looking and if I am walking and you are in a car at the corner you can proceed through the intersection way faster than you can wait for me to walk through it!0

that should be posted in every store and place of eating!!!!
Some of these mom's don't realize their baby is tired not hungry!!!! Hello?!?!?!? It's called read and learn!!!0 -
that if you use a cell phone in a movie theater I am in, you have a strong possibility of getting kicked out. .... Oh wait, there are at least six people who have learned that over the past few years. :devil: :devil:0

If you suddenly jam on your brakes at a Yield sign with no cars in sight you will probably surprise the person behind you and cause an accident
The sign on the indoor track that says not to walk side by side and block both lanes applies to people on the track
The signs on the glass windows on the portion of the indoor track overlooking the pool that say "Do not stand on the track to watch your children swim" should not be torn down because they are blocking your view of the pool.0 -
I know a few things:
2) If on said three lane highway in the far left lane and a car approaches from behind at a higher rate of speed, it is customary to move over into the middle or far right lane so that they may pass. When they flash their ligths at you, it is a signal that you are being asked to do so. Should you choose not to do so, the next flashes you see may very well be muzzle flashes.
I better stop...
I don't agree with this. You are saying that we should allow every jerk that races up behind us and drives obnoxiously (tailing, flashing lights) to pressure us into getting over so he/she can be on their precious way. I understand getting out of the left lane if you aren't in the process of passing someone, but if I am passing someone at my desired speed and someone comes up behind me and does as you described, why should I hurry up and quickly get over for that obnoxious jerk? I have people do that to me when I'm already doing 80 in a 70. It's never fast enough for someone. People forget the roads are to be shared. It's not THEIR road to drive as THEY please.
You have no right to flash your lights at anybody on the road unless you are law enforcement, or you are telling someone coming the other direction to turn their brights off!
Actually in CA, what the original poster said was true. If they are coming up behind you and wanting to go faster, you should move out of their way.
It REALLY pisses me off when people don't move. I don't care that your terrified of driving faster, get the eff outta my way so I can go!0 -
I'm the only person that knows... that 'loose' means 'easy' and 'lose' means 'once having had something but now it is missing'. I can even use both in the same sentence... thusly: "I am going to 'lose' my sanity if I don't find a 'loose' woman pretty damn soon".0

Not to talk during a movie!!!
If I just paid $13 to watch this movie you need to shut the hell up! I don't care if your 5 year old is asking questions on whats happening and saying he is scared, you shouldn't have brought him to see a movie that's PG13! Also, don't drop him off and leave him there (all by himself) while you go and get 4 boxes of candy, popcorn and a slushy for him and then show up and call out for him 5 mins into the movie because YOU don't remember where you put him.0 -
That in NC, if a school bus is stopped with it's lights flashing and you are on a 4 lane road with a median or turn lane and are headed in the opposite direction, you don't need to stop.
Thanks for clearing that up! It is a situation that I find confusing. Mainly, because I have seen some children get off the bus and cross the street in that exact scenario. So, now I stop just in case they might cross.0 -
I am the only person in my household that knows WHERE the outside dumpster is despite drawing a map on the garbage can in the house with a detailed drawing giving explicit directions to said dumpster.0

people in Minnesota have no concept of what merge and yield mean. I am an asian driver and even I know better.that you're supposed to merge onto a highway matching the speed of traffic.
Everyone else in Colorado believes you're supposed to go 10-20 mph slower. :explode:
What's your secret knowledge??? :smokin:
Minnesotans DO have a tough time with this.........as a MN person myself, I think it's largely due to the fact that we USED to have "yield" signs at on-ramps, and no one can get used the fact that this isn't the way it IS anymore. Also, the whole Minnesota Nice thing................you gotta slow down and let that poor chap IN!
lol.
My secret knowledge? I do believe I'm the ONLY one who refuses to leave their dirty dishes in the office sink for DAYS..........thinking that someone else will DO them for me! ha!0 -
Sometimes I feel like I am the only person double-timing, while the rest of the world is half-stepping
So who's doing it wrong then?0 -
.That after spending thousands of dollars to build bicylce trails we still have the SHARE the road and they dont!!! GRRRRRRR!!! You are a vehicle! Learn the rules of the road!!!!
The "rules of the road" go both ways. A person riding a bike has more to fear from a car than the other way around. I have seen more inconsiderate drivers of cars than drivers of bikes. Keep that in mind as if the person on the bike that you have to "share the road "with is one of your children.
I know people in the city who don't own cars and walk everywhere and yet they still have to pay taxes to maintain the roads.0 -
I am the only person who knows that it is the law to put your headlights on when it is raining...not your parking lights,,,not your hazard lights...your headlights!0

Hahaha so true!I'm the only one who knows that the top of the escalator is not really the best place to stop and plan your next move.0

Apparently in STL I am the only person that knows that smoking while pumping gas is actually a hazard to your health! If they want to blow up thats fine...I prefer them not do it while I am pumping gas as well!0

My wife claims that there is something called a windshield wiper ... I dunno ... maybe she's mistaken ...0

\I'm the only one who knows that the house never gets messy if you just put *kitten* away when you're done with it.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! LOVE this!!!0 -
GREEN: means go
YELLOW: doesn't mean "speed-up"
RED: doesn't mean "one more!"0 -
When the person in front of you has been matching speed of the traffic flow for the past 10 miles, then SUDDENLY slows down and puts on the hazard lights, it is NOT an invitation to honk your horn, rev your engine and FLIP ME OFF!
I had metal in my tire and it was going fast!0 -
1. It isn't okay to block an intersection or driveway. You won't get through that light any faster by blocking that dude attempting to exit the Fresh Market parking lot. Leave a gap.
2. If you can tell me you can't breathe, you can.

I'm the only person who knows..... that the so called G-spot doesn't exist.0

Sometimes I feel like i'm the only person who knows how to enter and exit a roundabout properly.
And I'm one of those dorks who comes upon a roundabout in total confusion, hands up in the air, and mouthing "WTH is going on here?" Lol! Fortunately, we don't have many roundabouts in this neck o' the woods.0 -
