i was raised to be a gentleman at all times so what really annoys me is
1. men who do not hold the door for ladies (especially their own)
2. men who will not get the door for their lady when they are getting in and out the car
3. men who go in the bathroom and urinate all over the urinal (your nasty) if it's that little to where you cannot reach walk up on it!
4. speaking of bathrooms ppl who go in there and splash water all over the sink and not paper towel it up (annoying) then the person behind clothes get wet
5. men who think they are a ladies man and use the bathroom and then walk right out without washing their hands (makes me want to walk out and tell all the ladies he talking too "careful this one has hepatitis"
6. men who say they have to babysit and they are talking about their own children NEWSFLASH it's called parenting try it more often!
ok now for the other list
7. ppl who get in the 20 item or less aisle and they have 40 items and then get an attitude when the cashier tells them they cannot stay in line
8. ppl who blast their radio and they have small children in the front or backseat
9. (one more for men) PULL YOUR FREAKING PANTS UP!

'Losing respect for the human race' isn't a sentence I use lightly.. certainly not with regards to bad animal owners or the way people choose to vote, personality traits or their little quirks.
I have lost a lot of respect for global society recently unfortunately
I lost some when I heard of Yue Yue, the two year old Chinese girl who was run over by a van and left to suffer and bleed in the street as people WALKED ON BY. She was then run over another two times before a street cleaner came to her aid. She later died in hospital.
Then some more when I heard of Jyoti Singh, the 23 year old Indian medical student who was gang raped by five men, so brutally that her insides came out of her rectum, then she was dumped on the street and left for dead, she died two weeks later in hospital due to her horrific injuries.
In my own Country, I lost respect for humanity when I heard of Savita, a beautiful Indian woman living in Ireland who died as a result of doctors in charge of her life looked after her with Religion, rather than medicine.
Every time I turn on the news, I lose respect for us.0 -
RATE THE PERSON ABOVE YOU!!! ONLY IF YOU CAN HANDLE THE TRUTH0

#1 - which even I am prone to do at times -- is judging anyone else based on my standards -- I am a member of the human race, as are you, in which you are losing faith. I am a great believer in a philosophy that proposes you: "If you don't like something, do something to change it; and if you can't change it, learn to live with it."
Complaining or "preaching to the choir" has no effect other than stressing yourself and/or irritating others. God (yes, there IS a God) placed us on earth to learn and share, not to teach and expect others to do it our way. If you want to save the world, then start by taking the weather as it comes, and (for passengers) if you don't like the way someone is driving, then YOU get behind the wheel and let him or her ride and enjoy the scenery.0 -
Then resign and find something else to do!0

Cruelty to animals...and hate crimes...0

...
2.Parents who dress warmer then their kids when they go outside
...
Uh-oh. I do this all the time. Disclaimer: My kids are older, 16 and 14. I got sick and tired of the fight (they'll wear shorts and a hoodie out in the middle of winter) and finally said; "dress how you want. If I hear the words 'I'm cold', you're grounded."
My 5 year old is obsessed with wearing as little as possible. Yesterday was so windy but he didn't want his coat. He played outside for 2 hours and never wanted it.0 -
Cruelty to animals, hate crimes, people who don't respect others while driving (you just have to move your fingers and put on your signal, how else am I going to guess that you want to turn??)
People not getting up for pregnant women or women carrying babies (especially true for the Paris transportation system)
Rude people and so on...0 -
1. Parents who try to reason with their children when they are having a meltdown. Seriously, no child is listening during a meltdown so stop looking like an idiot and grab the kid and go.
2. People who litter out car windows.
3. Drivers in South Florida. If you live here, you know what I mean. Just because you immigrated from another country does not mean you should get a 6 month license when you have never driven in your life or cannot read/understand English.
4. People who are *ssholes just to be an *sshole. I work with them and it doesn't make anyone's day easier.
5. Parents who go to a playground and not watch their kid. They are there for social hour and the kid is wreaking havoc for the younger kids.0 -
I have several:
1. Anyone with poor grammar. My list includes, but is not limited to: the overuse of the word "like", ghetto talk, the vocal fracture at the end of the sentence "I, like, am so borrrrreddddd". double negatives, and the need for subtitles on TV shows because the English is so poorly spoken.
2. Self entitled children and young adults who believe the world rises and sets in their collective butts.
3. Women who can't think or do on their own without asking a man's permission first
4. Hypocrites of any kind, but especially religious hypocrites. They're the ones who wrap themselves in their own version of biblical scripture, which they quote at others, while they are sinning behind closed doors.
5. Couples who have children BEFORE they marry, and have the "Well, marriage is a HUGE commitment, and I'm not sure I'm ready for such a commitment" attitude. CHILDREN are a lifetime commitment, marriage is NOT.
6. People who sit around and whine about how (insert negative adjective here) their lives are, but do NOTHING to change them.
I have more, but they can be found in my profile summary.0 -

It doesn't help the situation either when the dmv renews driver's license by mail to people over the age of 60. Little old ladies who can't see over the steering wheel, or their reaction time has gone way down and causes accidents. How many accidents have there been in south florida in the past year where someone over the age of 60 didn't remember the difference between brake and gas? Lot more than they show on the news.0 -
Here's my short list...
- People on cell phones while driving a car or waiting in a doctor's office (do we really need to know EVERY detail of why you're at the doctor).
- Government over spending on stupid things like spending over a million dollars for government cars that sit in a parking garage that has to be paid for and have been sitting there since 2007, happened in Miami. And Government underspending mostly education things. :explode:
- People who don't know what the word soap or deodorant is. :sick:
- Teachers who give their students the answers to an important test so that the TEACHER looks like they are a good teacher. :grumble:
- And lastly, human trafficking especially children and people brought to USA for the sole purpose of being sex slaves against their will. Or really any kind of child abuse. :mad:0 -

I have a family member who is in her early stages of Alzheimer's, and she drove me to church the other day while I was visiting her in another state. She had a moment where she couldn't remember the street to turn on to take us back home. It was very scary, and I couldn't help because I didn't know my way around the area.0 -
People who are abusive to animals
People who are abusive to other people
People who think their kids are better than yours ( been through this with the kids down the street) yet they have been so nasty and bad that families have moved to get away from them and these brats have made it so others do not want to play outside but yet their mom seems to think that when her kids do something bad that it was either not them or someone made them do it. Their kids could pound the crap out of yours and they can steal your stuff but it will still get twisted around so that your kid gets blamed.
People who complain about their health and life style but do nothing to change it.0 -
People with bad manners..seriously please and thank you aren't hard work. As a kid my dad always used to say "manners cost nothing yet very few people have them" i get it now.
Animal cruelty just makes me sick full stop.
Bad customer service!!! I work in customer service for the most amazing company..yet people are shocked at how nice I am..eh it's my job I get paid to treat you well and regardless I treat people how I want to be treated.
Just people who are negative every single day. Yes it is not rainbows & lollipops every day but you know the ones I'm talking about the most amazing thing could happen and somehow it would be terrible.0 -
Conservative religious right. (WRONG!!)0

Someone pulls up next to me at a red light, they have a cigarette hanging out of their mouth with the windows up and two kids in the backseat........scumbag:noway:
YES! Smoking around kids is NASTY!0 -
You know, the things that people do that ANNOY you so much that they leave you in disbelief. Here are my top three...
1. People beeping at a school bus, especially at kindergardeners. You aren't going to be there for ten minutes so calm down and relax.
2. People getting annoyed at elderly people. We will all be there one day, Lord willing that is, so calm down. If you have aches and pains at 35 how do you think that you will feel at 80? Some elderly people tend to talk alot but alot of elderly people are lonely, let them talk for three minutes, the world isn't going to end.
3. People not flushing the toilet in a public restroom. Dude, you're nasty!
1. Excessive cruelty to children or the elderly
2. People who litter, that would include corporations that dump toxic waste in our oceans.
3. When our country gets so wrapped up in the lives of celebrities and do not focus on real issues that can affect them.0 -
"Reality" tv, and the people who watch it.
That's a big one. People on TV doing all kinds of weird stuff just to get the TRP ratings high .
But the worst on my list are the pedofiles and rapists. They should just be castrated in public. :mad:0 -

So cruelty in general is okay, but when it's excessive it's totally wrong?0 -
One more thing- corrupt law enforcement officials. The people rely on you to protect and serve them yet you are taking bribes from drug dealers, organized crime, stealing property out of evidence lockers, planting evidence on innocent civilians and abusing your authority by forcing women to have sex with you to get out of going to jail on trumped up charges. You make it extremely difficult for the public to trust you and you also make it harder for honest cops.0

ouch I'm over 60 and consider myself quite competent in what I do. But this is a good point and thanks, because one of things I find given this topic is some people's perception of senior people as being "old", frail, and close to death, and should be ignored. Just sayin, from a very young old guy !!!0 -

To me, 60 is VERY young. To a 22 year old, not so much. However, some of those 22 yo ladies have no problem hooking up with a 60 yo if that 60 yo has the money, right?0
