Got something to rant about? Put it here.
This morning's rant is people who don't know how to use turning lanes. It's not rocket science.

People stopping just before the crest of a hill and chatting on mobile phone while you're behind them - with no chance of safely passing as you can't see over the hill. Happened twice recently.0

People that send you PM's saying "You're so hot", along with a penis picture. Then deactivate.0

People who don't re-rack weights or put stuff away at the gym AND the gym employees who sit on their a$$es watching cat videos on YouTube while I put everything away!0

see for me it's not turn lanes it turn signals. USE THEM. if you wanna change lanes or make a turn let everybody else know what your stupid @ss is doing. I mean come on it's 4 inches from your hand and extremely easy to use, so no excuse there, having your phone in your hand isn't an excuse.0

I think of reracking other people's weights as my warm-up.

People thinking that if they put their hazard lights on then the blind corner on a 60mph road is suddenly transformed into a safe place to park so they can get out and take photos0

I have a Halloween one too, don't come to my door at the age of 16 with lip fuzz growing and no costume with your pillowcase expecting for me to actually give you candy. Dang after I turned 13 I didn't want to go trick or treating anymore cause I felt like I was too old to0

That is what I have started doing prior to my workout and in between sets. I still makes me mad though, because there are signs EVERYWHERE to re-rack the weights, but nobody does it. I think the people who close up the place at night should do it and if they don't, then the person who opens in the morning. The guy who opens apparently thinks it is more important to move wipe down the front counter in between watching cat videos and texting.

People talking or texting on their phone while driving. On the highway. At 80 km/hour. Not only is it illegal here, it's incredibly stupid.0

There are bottles of disinfectant and towels at the gym for a reason. USE THEM!! Nothing worse than watching someone go from piece of equipment to piece of equipment coughing all over the damn place and not wiping down their crap when they are done! 0 -

After I discovered the affair, I offered counseling-she chose divorce. Immediately I was restrained from my home, without cause, while I still was making the payments. During that time, she and her new boyfriend took everything that wasn't nailed down. Then, with the divorce finalized, she began meddling in my relationship with my kids, denying visitation, alleging all sorts of distasteful things without provocation. Fast forward 12 years, and I no longer see my kids, but I pay dearly for the right to be their estranged father. She spends the child support on clothes and cars, while her new man makes more than I do. She, of course, is unemployed since 1987, and has no income. That is the only thing the courts are interested in, HER income. I've tried fighting all of this, any usually it ends up with me paying her costs and fees, because she has no income, and the child suport goes up almost every time. Lose, Lose. If I could offer any advice, it would be to identify early on that she is one of these: never wrong, always knows best, narcissistic, etc. Then, get as far away as possible. It's hard, but eventually, you are able to move on and get over it without acting on your anger and indignation. They are out there, guys, so be on the lookout when things begin to go horribly wrong in your relationship. And make your divorce attorney address this behavior in the original documents, not after it is already happening, because by then it will be far too late.0

Right now. Anti hunters. Q 13 posted an article about hunter being airlifted out after a bear attack. Everyone is commenting saying good, karma, good job and all that. Freaking A people those are people. They are someone's husband, wife, brother, sister, aunt, uncle. They are someone who matters to someone. They say hunters are monsters yet evidence shows otherwise.0

I went to a bonfire and fireworks display sunday night and got there early to get a good spot. Some others had the same idea, and the space next to me was occupied for about an hour by a nice couple. Then five minutes before the start these two bratty kids push to the front, right in front of the couple, and immediately start complaining to their grandmother that they were bored! They did this before the bonfire was lit, before the fireworks went off, and at EVERY. SINGLE. PAUSE. BETWEEN. FIREWORKS. Groan. If they were so bored they should have just asked to go home.0

People who drive 5 mph BELOW the speed limit but just simply MUST be in the left lane......especially when they see a speeding vehicle coming up behind them. IMO it should be totally legal to wipe these fools off the face of the earth! I know what you are thinking.....why do you need to drive so fast? Well to that I say, because i want to. I'm not asking the other drivers to speed up or slow down. All I am asking is that they get the FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF out of the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 0

Why is my toddler so obsessed with doing things that either involve possibly killing herself or breaking horribly expensive things? If she's not trying to jump from the back of the sofa onto the windowsill she is trying to jump up and down on my laptop or using my iphone to batter the screen. She is such a witch.0

Oh gosh, there is nothing more demoralizing than driving.
The other day I was so pissed because it was dusk, it was raining hard, and someone had pulled over onto the side of the highway and was standing on the drivers side, practically on the white line. And I was in the right lane, and wanted to get out of the way, and this *kitten* driver in the left lane literally speeds up at the last second instead of letting me change lanes, and drives alongside me for the 10 seconds or so it took to pass the pulled over car, forcing me to slam on my brakes, but I still couldn't get around them in time to change lanes safely, without risking hydroplaning. I nearly hit the guy in the road who quickly got to the other side of his car.
I mean, it's one thing when inconsiderate drivers are irritating, but when their obliviousness is to the point of endangering people (let alone people endangering themselves by hanging out practically in the road), it really makes me blow a gasket (pun intended). I thought my heart was going to jump out of my chest. And I wanted so bad the be able to yell at that driver for almost making me hit someone.

To play devil's advocate(get it?), if you are going well over the speed limit and riding someone's butt, you should slow down. Speed limit signs are their for a reason along with slow lanes.
See, now the part that really gets me is these same slow left lane drivers that have a trail of people behind them that can't pass because of too many right lane drivers, will then get over into the right lane after traffic clears and go 15 mph OVER the speed limit in the right lane.
mbcaldwell123, once I was watching a slow left lane driver going 5 mph under when a cop was trying to pass, and he got pulled over. It was sweet revenge.

Sorry about that - it happens a lot and it's wrong. and I know there are 3 sides to every story but that system is broken and needs to be fixed.0 -

I was cut off by a driver while we were being directed single-file by a traffic attendant past an accident. He motioned me to go, then suddenly this woman peels out from behind me, swerves around him and gets in front, forcing me to hit the brakes in order not to hit her. The kicker was she was holding a phone to her ear the entire time. And she was still on the phone when I passed her on the highway later.
