Do you ever wonder what is going through the minds of people who:

Drive slow in the left lane
Merge onto the highway driving 20+ mph slower then the traffic your merging in with
Don't flush public toilets :sick:

If you're one of those people please explain why. Or if you'd like to have someone explain a mystery to you, ask here. :tongue:

    If I take an especially impressive crap, I like leaving it to show off to the next toilet user.

    I wonder about people who don't bother to get out their wallet until the cashier has finished ringing everything in. First time out of the house?

    I hate it when someone leaves an impressive dump for me to see. I know I can't compete and end up getting dump envy. :sad:

    Do those that accelerate the whole time from one red light into the next, really not see the next red light, or they enjoy the feeling of slamming on brakes, or they want a newer car sooner so the faster this one is abused the better?

    I always figure it's because they know I'm right there behind me and think it's funny to watch me get all pissed off.

    I would like to know why so many people run red lights in my home town. If it turns yellow, people don't slow down/stop, they SPEED UP. There are so many of these now that when the light turns green for ME I still have to wait till the traffic stops to be able to turn.

    What's UP with that?

    Re the public toilets one, sometimes they refuse to flush, probably because some cad has stuffed too much paper down there and it has caused a backlog :laugh:

    Because that is what OUR left hand lane is for.

    However, it infuriates me when someone drives slow in the right hand lane :wink:

    Maybe they are hoping for the light to turn green?


    I want to know why is people don't use their turn signals.... let alone properly... but I will take at all.... seriously, is it that difficult to move the switch? Or is the phone to the ear getting in the way?

    I would like to know: why would a person wait in line at an ATM, pull up to it, then decide to take out their ATM card, and take forever deciding what they need to do. Do you not already know if you need to w/drawal $$, how much, or deposit $?

    Every time i go i get behind someone that takes forever figuring this all out.

    I have 'ATM Rage'

    yes... I don't get people who drive slow, don't flush ( impressive poops excluded) and why people don't have their money ready at the cash register!

    I wonder why people ride your butt on the highway, so you move into the middle lane to get out of their way, only for them to get in front of you in the middle lane. Always irritated me.

    I like (and I use the term loosely...) people who stop dead in the merge lane and almost cause a 20 car pile up....

    This big time and then when you have to pass them in the left lane and they think its a race so they speed up I like to "WAVE" at people that do this.

    Or what about the PIA people that wait till the last minute to move over when there is road work and then think its your fault they can't get over!!!! They put the warning signs up for miles in advance for a reason people!!

    Why do people never stick to the speed limit - if it is 50 then do 50 or go the back roads and do the 30 you are doing in the 50 zone without holding anyone up......if that makes sense!! And it is 30 so why are you driving like a complete idiot at 50?

    Do old people not look before they pull out on moving traffic?

    Why do tractors decide to come out onto a main road in rush hour as people are trying to get to work?

    Why do people leave their trolleys in the middle of the car park when the trolley bay is a 30 second walk away - this would prevent damage to other peoples cars and maybe help you to lose that extra weight your carrying from being IDLE!!

    Do people who spend 5 hours stood in front of the 'Reduced' cabinet actually buy anything else?

    So many many many more but I'll stick with this for now :laugh:

    On the bathroom thread.... I always wonder why it takes women so damn long to do their business and get out... lines are always exponentially long for women's public restrooms then mens... it drives me batty! and I am a woman.... it shouldn't take 30 minutes to take a piss and no one cares how "put together" you are when you are walking out of the stall either... do your business and get out.

    ... and if they're going to turn left, why do they NOT get in the friggin' left turn lane until the last possible minute?? And the blinker is to let people know you INTEND on turning, not to make people aware that you're almost done turning!

    Why are you in the left lane when you need to exit right in 1/4 mile? I see your license plate and KNOW you live here, so you must know where you're going. Is it really necessary to cut across 4 lanes of freeway traffic to make your exit at the last minute? Not to mention that you give me a heart attack on the way to work. It ruins my whole morning! :noway:

    I wonder when webster will finally incorporate OMG, LOL, LMAO, DTF, and all these other "words" into his dictionary? And I wonder when this generation will throw up the first power point with these words during one of my meetings while talking about the latest in military research and development...

    I did that once when I was a new driver, it was at night and there was NO room to merge on.... Maybe if people moved over into the other lane when people are trying to merge on, then this wouldn't happen.... However, I also was behind someone who did this (when there was room for people to merge and even change lanes) and I saw this truck (who was following too closely behind mind you) swerve behind me (that was the most scary thing I have ever seen).

    I make the "duh!" sign to people who cut me off and then in the middle of cutting me off they will turn on their blinker...
